Profile

The sophomore eatery from the owner of Williamsburg’s factory-turned-restaurant My Moon, has quietly opened to the public. The menu skews to the north Mediterranean: Greek, Italian, Spanish, but like My Moon, mostly Turkish — grilled pizzas, meatball casserole, cheese plates, and several meze. Owner Bener Bilgin has joined with his front-of-the-house manager and another Turkish restaurant friend to open the 70-seat spot across the street from McCarran Park. Though designed by the same artist who gave My Moon its airy, performance-space feel, this smaller location has a more intimate look. Several tall glass-top bar tables are inlaid with stones and sea shells, and there’s a glassed-in kitchen. Plus, Bilgin claims to own the only restaurant in the city that serves Turkey’s Efes Pilsner on tap.

A group of friends and I decided to try out Lokal last night. The wait staff was personable and extremely attentive. We never felt rushed, although one of the members of our party didn't arrive for nearly half an hour...Read More
