Terrible service and food quality. The places lacked a welcoming environment and edible choices. Would not recommend unless you have no other option. read more

Amazing food, great vibe, lives up to the hype! My only criticism is i wish they would open for lunch!!

I'll keep this review short and sweet: Vastly overpriced, food is vastly underwhelming, & the service is vastly nonexistent read more

I have upgraded my review to reflect the fact that we did get served latkes and while the food is good, the communication with customers and staff needs work! read more

Dinner was wonderful, everything was delicious. Staff was sweet and attentive. Ambiance is relaxing, low lights, perfect music.

We had an exceptional meal tonight- and the service far exceeded even the food! Nora was so amazing- her recommendations were spot on; each dish more delicious than the next! Her attention to our family, along with her kindness and patience truly made for an incredible evening. We loved the vibes, the food, the drinks and NORA read more

Go eat the lamb neck now. One of the best things I've ever eaten. It's perfectly cooked and seasoned, pairs perfectly with both the tahini and green sauce, and the injetra makes the perfect taco vehicle if you wrap it all up. It sounds cheesy to say, but the chef really honored the lamb with this preparation. read more

Mesiba - Lamb neck is the best thing I've eaten in years - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The staff was extremely accommodating and the restaurant is adorable. We shared a few things but the Frena Bread, Fennel, Khinkali (especially the khinkali) stole the show! I had the Limonada and the presentation was everything! read more

Food and decor was really nice but service was very basic and almost nonexistent. Makes sense because they add 20% gratuity to every check. Personally I think they should restructure their service setup or at least improve it. read more

Food is okay 20% tip automatically included Negroni is white.. wide tables in a way you are extremely far from your partner. read more

Amazing food, service and ambiance. The lamb was to die for and probably some of the best I've ever had. All of the dishes were perfectly balanced....10/10 recommend! read more

We have been to Mesiba 3 times and every time we go the food remains deliciously consistent. The new restaurant at the Moxy hotel has not disappoint us. The place has high ceilings, beautiful arch windows and plants that makes the restaurant nice and cozy. The first time we came we were blessed with Samantha as a server. She was super efficient and patient. Suggested lots of delicious dishes and we were pleasantly surprised. We order the bread with zaatar, the babaganoush, the neck of lamb, fennel salad and everything was delicious. Our second time having dinner was on a Saturday and perhaps one of their busiest days. My friend ordered the octopus and was very impressed. On Monday we went back; I know we can't get enough... and we were able to get off the menu falafel over hummus that was delicious, crunchy on the outside and tender in the inside. We have also gone to Bar Bedford their sister bar and ordered like 12 falafel sides and the chicken schnitzel that were made to perfection. We would like to suggest that you consider adding the falafel to your appetizer menu since it's so good. read more

Really interesting wine list and menu. Almost everything we ordered, and we ordered a lot of different things, was fantastic. Worth mentioning tuna crudo, red snapper skewers, frena bread and knafeh. Next time will bring more friends and try the braised lamb neck which looked great at the table next to us. Served was wonderful and the room lent itself to a great time. read more

Came here for appetizers and did not disappoint! The flavors were unique and worth coming back for. The service was a little slow and prices were high but definitely a great spot for a special occasion! read more

We took a chance and walked up with no reservation. We were seated right away. The space has great decor and comfortable distance between the tables. The Frena Bread is a must have. The fish feeds 3 but our party of 2 devoured it. Note that your bill already has gratuity included. read more

The grilled octopus was delectable! The frena bread was to die for! Highly recommended! Only downside was the price, haha

We just came from dinner with our adult daughter at this lovely restaurant. It was excellent!!! The food was delicious and beautifully prepared. Service was great- just enough so as to be unobtrusive but there any time something was needed. Desserts were also outstanding. Heartily recommend!!! read more

Not your usual food. Awesome take on Israeli food. Try it. They won't disappoint. Solid service too. read more

The 4 of us showed up about 20 early for our reservation on Mother's Day. Restaurant was approximately 40% full. Waiter was friendly enough. It was about 5:45 pm. We did not receive our entree (1 out of the 3 ordered) till 6:50. The next one came 20' later and then after another 15' we cancelled the 3rd entree. The 2 appetizers we ordered also took way too long to arrive. It was the Hummus from the cart......and 20' later the other app. To be clear food was tasty but the portions we TEENY. I'm not exaggerating. Then we finally asked for the check and that took another 20' and it has a 20% tip already added which really put us over the edge. Service was HORRIBLE.We won't be returning. Mesiba was anything but a MESIBA. LO TOV read more

We're visiting NYC from TN. We loved everything about this place! Great service, atmosphere, customer service and most of all- GREAT FOOD! Our server Terry blew us away! Terry was very knowledgeable about the menu and gave great suggestions. Terry was also a genuine soul and provided us with great service. read more

Amazing food and drinks. Loved the family style options. The chicken was stellar. I wish I had more. The mushroom appetizer plate was just as tasty. All staff members were fully versed on the menu, offering a breakdown of the plates, sharing recommendations and answering all questions. The ambiance was a perfect vibe for the night. Overall loved the experience and am looking forward to going again. read more

Great ambiance and food. They're also on top of their service. Would definitely go back soon.

The best Mediterranean food I have ever had. I literally dream about the eggplant appetizer and whole fried fish.

Celebrated a double birthday here on Friday night. The space is really beautiful, very retro and sleek with pretty brown booths intermixed with tables. Service is top notch from the warm greeting at the host desk to our server Terry. (They add 20% gratuity to every bill automatically but unlike Gramercy Tavern, the staff actually delivers way beyond.) We shared a few starters: fluke crudo, baba ghanoush, bread, dumplings, octopus. Everything was exceptional. We could have passed on the fluke to be honest. That eggplant though. Oh. My. God. It was outrageously good. The octopus was the tenderest I've ever had. I will be dreaming about this meal for a long time. read more

Took my siblings here for a bday dinner. Reservations open up a month in advance and eas super easy thru Resy. The decor is beautiful - 70s mod meets green gardens. Dimly lit and definitely a nice romantic spot, but also accommodating to groups. They have a couple side party rooms with equally nice decor. Drinks were good and got the job done. Food though was sublime. We shared: fluke crudo, frena bread, mushroom shawarma, chicken musakhan, kreplach, and their famous lamb neck. Fluke was fresh and the sauce was perfectly complimentary. Frena was super doughy and slighty charred served with olive oil and sour cream, could def have eaten that by myself. Mushroom shawarma and kreplach were a delicious vegetarian friendly option and def rounded out the other dishes well. Chicken was crispy and charred on the outside but super moist and tender on the inside. Also served with fresh pita and the flavor wasn't overpowering but stood on its own well. And the piece de resistance, lamb neck was succulent, fell right off the bone and was not gamey in the slightest. The yeast pancakes and pickles they serve it with were absolutely delectable. Only comes with 5 pancakes so def leaves you wanting more if you are a larger group. The seasoning was perfect and complimented the other dishes really well. Overall food was divine and service was attentive. Def a cool spot to introduce people to if you want to impress them. Have to go back soon. Highly recommend! read more

The service was great. All the dishes we ordered (there was 6 of us) were delicious but, you need to know the portions are very small (and very pricey). read more

Food was fresh and delicious. I didn't mind the built in 20% tip since the service was excellent. We had reservations and we were seated right away. (It was a weekday) The place is well decorated with a very chill atmosphere. They seated us in the middle of other tables for 2 which was annoying. The tables are separated by only a few inches. It's almost like a community table. You can hear everything the people next to you are talking about. It was amusing at times. I understand the need to do that on weekends but spread it out a little when there is room. The cocktails were beautiful and pretty tasty but they have to calm down on the ice. Our cups were overflowing with ice which left no room for much of the liquids. We could hardly taste the alcohol. They are probably amazing for someone that doesn't drink much. (Light weights) Overall, try it out. Worth it at least 1 time. read more

Loved this place. The three of us shared a bunch of apps which were all such nice sized portions that we didn't order any of the largest plates. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The chef really nailed it. Our waiter and wait staff were also perfect. I highly recommend. read more

short review here i dined solo the place very modern nice the service super slow i has the tuesday schnitzel waited for my food way too long i was offered more schnitzel but i wouldn't entertain that since i knew it would come with a long wait place is very high noise level the food was generous portion the schnitzel was on the thin side and dry i was turned off by the 20% gratuity automatically added to my check i only had this once before in a restaurant and i never returned gratuity is my decision based on service for me this joint is a one x go. read more

Mesiba absolutely hits with each dish they serve. I have spent a lot of time in Israel and this lives up to some of the best Israeli food I've had in the city. I recommend the bread, baba ganoush and octopus dishes to start. The only reason I gave the restaurant a 4 is because the service was not great. I received the wrong drink from the bar, they took it away and I didn't receive my cocktail until 3/4 through the meal. Would have been nice for the waitress to leave the cocktail that was left at the table and comp the drink in my opinion. I also had to fight off waitstaff who kept trying to take our dishes away when we we're only halfway done. I probably had to tell staff 4-5 times throughout the meal we were still working on dishes and one of our dishes was taken away too quickly to get it back. Beyond that though, once Mesiba get their service together I will absolutely be coming back. Very good vibes and great food and cocktails! read more

Overhyped on social media. Food was not what I was expecting after seeing so many positive reviews.
