A lively, modern Aegean meze bar in Wynwood with the former Mandolin chef, Doya is where fresh, flame-kissed flavors meet a buzzing, see-and-be-seen atmosphere. If Mandolin is the romantic date spot, Doya is where you bring a crew, order everything, and stay for hours.
This is the kind of place where the table is always full—of colorful, flavor-packed plates, free-flowing cocktails, and plenty of conversation. Chef Erhan Kostepen delivers a menu built for sharing, from silky hummus and smoky baba ghanoush to tender lamb kebabs, just-charred-enough octopus, and fire-roasted halloumi.
Don’t skip the cocktails. The Mediterranean-inspired drinks, like the fig-infused Old Fashioned, are as thoughtful as the food—and go down dangerously easy.
The dining room is stylish yet laid-back, but the breezy patio is nice enough to let your hair frizz on a summer night. While Wynwood has no shortage of hotspots, Doya manages to strike that elusive balance of cool and welcoming—a place where the food is as good as the vibe.
