There’s no shortage of Mediterranean restaurants in NYC, but @mesibabk manages to carve out its own identity.

Located inside @moxywilliamsburg, it’s a lively, colorful space where the menu is built around sharing. The first thing you’ll want to order is the house-made bread, baked fresh to order and served warm from the oven. From there, the menu encourages you to keep adding plates, whether that’s mezze, seafood, grilled meats, or a cocktail or two.

The room has a great buzz to it and the staff is super friendly. Come with friends, bring an appetite, and don’t underestimate how much bread you’ll eat before the rest of the food arrives.
