Tabac Plus

Mediterranean

About

Tabac Plus in downtown San Diego pairs Mediterranean and Turkish cuisine with a premium hookah lounge on Kettner Boulevard, operating out of an outdoor patio ringed by traditional fine art and a gas firepit. The kitchen turns out Kofte Hummus, Burrata Blossom, and homemade kunefe — a shredded-phyllo cheese dessert soaked in syrup — alongside Turkish breakfast platters on weekends, a sweet-and-savory brunch range that parallels the pastry case at Extraordinary Desserts in a distinctly Eastern Mediterranean register. Ethiopian-origin beans roasted in San Diego fuel the espresso bar, and a Turkish coffee program brews in traditional cezve pots alongside Arabic coffee service. The hookah menu offers multiple flavor profiles with options for milk bases, fruit bowls, ice-tip hoses, and custom blends, creating a shisha experience distinct from the cocktail-bar format at Caffe Italia on the Little Italy cafe circuit. Private dining configurations seat up to 120 across indoor and outdoor spaces, with a dedicated 35-seat indoor room and a 40-seat semi-private patio for buyout events.
