Mesogio's Means Fresh Seafood.



One recent sunny Saturday, a group of us were hankering for some fresh seafood and we decided to try a long established seafood eatery called Mesogio's here in Bucharest.  It's located on 49 Jean Louis Calderon, St. (Tel: 0727 239 239) but we went without reservations and didn't have any trouble getting a table, although it quickly filled up by 2:30.  As soon as you enter, you are taken by the attractive surroundings and quiet elegance.  The seafood bar has a generous selection of fresh choices which the waiter will weigh and price for you. I found the largest shrimp ever and included one in my appetizer oder along with some fresh mussels and spicy calamari.  Everything was expertly prepared and very tasty and the house bread is as soft and warm as can be.  It makes a great sponge for the various sauces and everyone raved about it.  This place isn't cheap but if you want very high quality seafood in a beautiful atmosphere, this eatery is worth a try.  Bon apetite!

                     


                                             Make your selection and off it goes to the kitchen.


                                                    Mesogio's interior is peaceful and elegant.


                                                                 Truly JUMBO shrimp.


                                                Salmon is an economical and tasty choice.


                                                               Grilled whole Dorado.


                                                            Mussels in white wine.

                                                            Spicy Calamari is a favorite and the sauce is worth sopping up with                            Mesogio's very fresh bread.
