Metta BK

Mettā is a neighborhood restaurant located on a quiet corner two blocks from the Fort Greene farmers market in Brooklyn. We offer sustainably sourced, vegetable-forward dishes all cooked in a custom designed, open-fire kitchen.

Our menu relies heavily on South American asado techniques, utilizing all aspects of the fire (smoke, flame, ash and embers) to create layers of flavor in dishes.

With a team that brings a California locavore’s perspective to East Coast ingredients, the menu highlights ingredients that are currently in market along with traditional preservation techniques such as fermentation, curing and dehydration to lengthen the seasons.

To complement the food, our wines emphasize old world and natural producers that favor minimal intervention and pair well with wood-fired cooking.
