“Mediterranean food is about an entire region and the various cuisines within”
says Dane Asermely
who opened Meso, along with partner Bobby Khorrami
OUR STORY
Meso means “middle”, combining the flavors of French, Italian, Spanish, Greek, and North African… a melting pot of 22 countries in all.
The partners bring an impressive résumé of NYC restaurant savvy to Meso: Dane Asermely and Bobby Khorrami own The Tillage on West 30th Street, while Miguel Olmedo has led operations for The Howard Hughes Corporation, Highgate Hotels, and Scarpetta NYC. Chef Alex Lopez (previously at French-Mediterranean bistro Nice Matin on West 79th) has a menu that targets the center of the Mediterranean, pulling equally from all corners.
We provide a variety of dishes from Greek-inspired platters of dips, whole branzino, spaghetti with lobster and heirloom cherry tomatoes, mushroom fusilli with sun-dried tomatoes, and a roasted garlic butter sauce. Honey-glazed duck served with brandy-soaked figs. Pastas and desserts are made in-house.
Meso strives on only using the freshest ingredients daily, what comes in goes out the same day. The handcrafted cocktails are an extension of our cuisine made with freshness, innovation, and sustainability as core elements. A few of our specialties include our staple Crystal Clear Margarita, with Volcan Silver Tequila, clarified lime juice, Cointreau, and lemon-pepper salt rim as well as our Meso Smoked Old Fashioned aka, “The Smoke Show” with Four Roses Bourbon, walnut, and angostura bitters, cinnamon reduction, and apple wood chips smoke are the perfect combination to pair your experience.
