Memo Group is the restaurant and retail management group behind Memo Shish Kebab, Portokali Gourmet Market and Mera Restaurant: three brands and four locations across Brooklyn and Manhattan.
Memo Group is a New York restaurant and retail management group and the home of three brands: Memo Shish Kebab, Portokali Gourmet Market and Mera Restaurant.
The story goes back to 2000, when Memo Shish Kebab opened as a small Turkish eatery in Brooklyn. It grew into a full restaurant, and in 2018 a second location opened in Chelsea, one block from the Flatiron Building.
Today the group also runs a gourmet market on Sheepshead Bay Road and Mera, a restaurant, bar and hookah lounge on Kings Highway — each with its own identity, all built on quality ingredients and warm hospitality.
Two restaurants and a gourmet market — three distinct brands, each with its own character.
A casual Turkish traditional kebab restaurant serving authentic shish kebab, fresh ingredients, and bold flavors. Rooted in time-honored recipes, Memo Shish Kebab offers a warm, neighborhood-focused dining experience inspired by true Turkish cuisine.
A classic gourmet market offering fresh produce and specialty groceries, featuring exclusive products from Turkey, Russia, Ukraine, and Azerbaijan — bringing familiar flavors together and making our community feel at home.
A refined dining destination offering a full restaurant, bar, and hookah lounge experience. Mera blends classic recipes with a contemporary approach, creating a stylish atmosphere designed for memorable gatherings, celebrations, and late-night social dining.
