"Super-talented" chef Jehangir Mehta turns out "terrific, original" Eclectic small plates at this "cool" TriBeCan in the Duane Street Hotel; "accommodating" service is another reason to "love the place" despite "shoeboxlike" dimensions.

Mehtaphor Restaurant Review

Cozy, tiny Mehtaphor is a restaurant with a sense of whimsy. The menu at chef Jehangir Mehta’s second downtown restaurant is filled with impossible combinations of ingredients, like onion confit and grapefruit granita or pop rocks and oysters, all of which manage to work quite successfully. Cocktails set the scene with concoctions made with chili and coconut or sherbet and tequila, with the fun...

One of the better spots in town to get oysters topped with grapefruit confit and Pop Rocks. Super-creative Iron Chef competitor Jehangir Mehta gives Graffiti a little breathing room with a perch in the Duane Hotel. Push the envelope by dining down on foie gras and raspberry compote, or beef tartare with guacamole sorbet. Modernist-retro space, finished in rustic wood and serpentine window...

Unique delicious offerings. I have dined her half dozen times, dinner only, and have never been disappointed. Chef Mehta knows what he is doing. The main problem is that there is no buzz that you feel in a well received restaurant. The room is all but empty and your love of the unique combinations of food in a neighborhood filled with great eating establishments presents you with a...

For eclectic Indian fusion cuisine, creative cooking and presentation, delicious dishes, great service and personal attention to your specific needs are some of the reasons you must dine at Mehtaphor. We ordered a six course meal and put the fate of our evening in hands of Chef/Owner Jahangir Mehta and we were not disappointed.

Mehtaphor offers a menu inspired by Asian urban tastes and scents and wrapped in Jehangir Mehta's singular chef voice. There's a point of view here and a chef who touches every dish. The restaurant has several intimate dining areas, including a dessert-cocktail bar, a tiny loungy dining area, a true cocktail bar, a time worn wooden communal table. The entire restaurant is awash in glass...
