Beyoglu

Upper East Side


A long-time favorite of Mediterranean-craving Upper East Siders, Beyoglu whips up meze (appetizer) platters that are ideal for sharing, including creamy-rich hummus, juicy lamb kebabs, tender grape leaves and lemon-scented chargrilled octopus.

It has an airy, comfy interior, though on sunny days you can sit at a sidewalk table out front. Great wine selection.
