Owner Reza Rahmani has built Bar25 around a menu unlike any other in Newburyport, and he is mindful of both the desire for novelty and dependable favorites that keep customers coming back. When the senses are stimulated with contemporary Middle Eastern flavors, the pleasure of dining out expands. Start with small plates (Mezze) where a touch of Persian pizazz accentuates familiar fare such as sliders and fries. Savory meats and freshly sourced ingredients are all prepared to order, and the wait-staff are an enthusiastic team who really know their stuff.
