    Tonight, I had the extraordinary pleasure of dining at MELI, and it was nothing short of a Mediterranean masterpiece! From the moment I walked in, the restaurant’s lively energy, warm lighting, and chic decor set the tone for an unforgettable culinary experience. We began with an irresistible array of appetizers—golden, tender calamari and kolokythokeftedes that were crisp on the outside, yet bursting with flavor on the inside. Each bite was a perfect introduction to what was yet to come. For my main course, I chose the lamb chops, and they were simply divine. Perfectly cooked, impossibly tender, and infused with aromatic spices, they were paired with golden Greek fries that added just the right crunch. My friend’s veal chop was equally impressive—rich, succulent, and layered with mouthwatering flavor. The service elevated the entire evening. George, our server, was an absolute delight—attentive, warm, and a true wine aficionado. His recommendations paired so perfectly with our meal that it felt like the flavors danced together. And then, the grand finale: baklava. Sweet, flaky, and drenched in just the right amount of honey, it was the ultimate indulgence to end an extraordinary dinner. MELI isn’t just a restaurant; it’s a destination for Mediterranean food lovers. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out on a true gem.

    Second time at MoCa and it’s always a pleasure. Our server was very nice and suggested great dishes. Went with a party of 4 for a birthday and even got free shots. The food was amazing, we ordered multiple appetizers and 1 entre that was shared which was the crispy duck, definitely good, just wish it was more fulfilling. Definitely check out the bar appetizers even if you’re not at the bar, they are worth it. I personally love the atmosphere and the semiprivate booths, wonderful for a small party of 4-5 people. It’s definitely a bit expensive, some dishes and drinks are above the average price so keep that in mind, but for special occasions it might be the best Asian fusion option in forest hills.
