Mi Garba signage arrives on 4th Avenue



As noted a few weeks back, the first U.S. outpost of Mi Garba ("I like it" in Italian) is opening at 129 Fourth Ave. just south of East 13th Street.

As the Post reported:

The flagship 1,000 square-foot space ... will include a restaurant with 10 tables. There will also be Tuscan food and wine for sale along with a boutique offering fashion items, including custom-made shirts and jackets.

Anyway, coming soon announcements for Mi Garba, which sounds like a good concept for an airport, are up in the windows.

This storefront has been (mostly) empty since Dryden Gallery moved out two and a half years ago.

  1. I know that it's Italian and all, but these people DO realize that you instantly think "my garbage" when you read their signage, right?

  2. I wonder who will take this space one year from now?

  3. Another concept restaurant that's pre-doomed. Their "flagship" location will have a whopping 10 tables? Wowsers! AND sell t-shirts!

    They might as well not bother to open.

    PS: The name made me think of clothing, as in "garb."
