“Bulgarian Cuisine”

Mehanata is a family-owned, suburban Bulgarian restaurant. Since 2004, Mehanata has become known for its cozy, unique decor and rustic, custom-made tables. During the days of summer you can enjoy our freshly made, top-notch dishes on our beautiful flowered outdoor patio. Our menu features traditional Bulgarian, Eastern European and Balkan food. Salads are part of every Bulgarian meal, from classic shopska salad (tomatoes, cucumbers, roasted red peppers, green onions, parsley and feta cheese) to everybody’s favorite combination salad plate ‘Mehanata’.
