Brooklyn Bites | Mesiba - A Middle Eastern Feast with Hits & Misses!
📍 Mesiba, Williamsburg – After hours of Brooklyn wandering, we dove into this vibrant Israeli spot—some dishes soared, others… not so much. Here’s the unfiltered scoop. ✨ The Standouts: 🧆 Masabaha Hummus – Warm, garlicky chickpeas + pillowy pita = addictive. 🐟 Moroccan Fish Wrap – Flaky white fish + harissa in a charred laffa (skip the tahini—bitter twist). 🍋 Lemonade – House-made + minty = heatwave lifesaver. 😐 The Letdowns: 🍤 Prawn Risotto – Overcooked shrimp + oddly bitter saffron (why?!). 🍽️ Off-menu "dumplings" – Juicy but messy (server warned: "Don’t cut!"—we ignored = regret). 💡 Verdict: • Great for groups (sharing = best strategy) • Skip the risotto, double hummus • Williamsburg stroll first—hunger helps. Perfect for: 🍢 Hummus devotees 🌶️ Spice adventurers 🛍️ Post-shopping refuels 📍 Mesiba – Where some flavors shine brighter than others. #BrooklynEats #Williamsburg #MiddleEasternFood #NYCRestaurants #IsraeliFood #FoodieFails
