Cafe Medi

Eat & Drink, The Delicious Dozen, The Hotel

At long last our new restaurant is here! Cafe Medi opens to the public next week and early returns from tasting previews are full of “noms” and “mm-hmmms”. The northern Mediterranean cuisine is creative and innovative, the ceviche bar is fresh and friendly and the beautiful Spanish-tiled space will be fun and inviting from the back corner booths to the sidewalk patio cafe.

Cafe Medi promises to offer guests a taste of the Coastal Mediterranean with signature options such as Peach with Burrata and Basil, American Red Snapper Carpaccio, Burrata Agnolotti with Perigord Truffle, vegetarian Spring Risotto, Branzino, Lamb Tartare, Yellowfin Tuna Tartare, Chicken Under Brick and many more.

Located in Lower East Side, Cafe Medi serves fresh and seasonal contemporary Coastal Mediterranean cuisine inspired by the traditional coastal dishes of Spain, Italy and France. Featuring a high-ceiling, sky-lit, mural covered 90 seat dining room, 22 outdoor terrace, 10 main bar seating and 8 more at Crudo Bar featuring the Chef’s fresh catch of the day. They also prepare vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free dishes.  All Café Medi dishes are intended for shared enjoyment.

LRV, Lazaro Rosa-Violan Studio from Barcelona, Spain, is responsible for bringing an edgy and artistic touch to the Cafe Medi restaurant.  Expansive 20-feet high floor-to-ceiling colorful tile mural was designed and crated by a Spanish artist who was inspired by a Peruvian Myth.  The Mediterranean-blue themed Peruvian Gods mural is their signature decor piece.
