Mesob a new Ethiopian restaurant and the only one in the immediate area—you can dine overlooking the bustling sidewalks of Montclair’s eclectic Bloomfield Avenue. Otherwise, sit in the softly lit dining room bathed in warm earth tones and decorated with Ethiopian tapestries and leatherwork from Eritrea. A bar at the center of the restaurant is a work of art unto itself, topped with translucent leather scrolls lit from within and writ with
characters of the Ethiopian alphabet. The family owned and operated restaurant serves only the finest quality meats and freshly baked injera (a spongy, Ethiopian flat bread). You'll find the food here is distinctive and exotic as the ambiance. And be sure to stop in for the new tea and coffee bar, open all day, featuring teas from nine African countries, select appetizers and desserts.
