Best Greek Restaurants in MiMo / Upper East Side

Doya – A Must-Try for Greek & Turkish-Inspired Meze Recently dined at Doya, a fantastic spot that blends Greek and Turkish flavors with a menu designed for sharing. The restaurant specializes in both cold and hot meze, making it perfect for a communal dining experience. For cold meze, I highly recommend the traditional fava bean spread, eggplant (babaganoush), green goddess dip (similar to tzatziki), and shrimp carpaccio—all fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Among the hot meze, we tried the rib steak over the wood-fired grill, which, while cooked well, needed a bit more seasoning. However, the grilled Dorado fish was outstanding—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We rarely order dessert, but the chocolate mousse with cherries was a standout and an absolute must-try. Service at Doya is team-oriented, delightful, and impressively quick. The food comes out fast, making for a seamless dining experience without feeling rushed. Overall, Doya delivers a wonderful dining experience, with a well-executed menu, great service, and a lively atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore high-quality Mediterranean flavors in a shareable format.

Dobi was the man- super helpful and attentive. A great experience

We made a reservation for Monday night. The dining room was mostly empty, so there were plenty of tables right on the water. It's an amazing experience to sit there and watch the boats go by so close. We had martinis with all those stuffed with blue cheese because that's what she likes. We also had a Kasserie cheese appetizer, which they flambé at the table that was excellent. This is a great place to go with a date

EXCELENT FOOD, BEAUTIFULL PLACE, AND EXTEMELY GOOD SERVICE. HOUR SERVER MADE US FEEL AT HOME. IS IMPOSSIBLE FOR ME TO SPELL HIS NAME, BUT HE IS FROM TURKEY, AND IS MARRIEDS TO A CUBAN, SO HE SPEAK 3 LANGUAGES. TRY TO HAVE HIM TAKING CARE OF YOU, AND YOUR EXPERIENCE WILL BE OUTSTANDING !!
