Sihana Bistro Brings Georgian-Mediterranean Flavor to Newark Urby
Sihana Bistro is now open on the ground floor of Newark Urby at 159 Washington Street. The new all-day spot brings together the creative force behind well-known Ironbound favorite, Five Corners Ristorante, into a concept offering coffee, cocktails, lunch, dinner, and weekend brunch.
Founded by Rutgers–Newark alum Kreshnik Berisha and hospitality veteran David Khabuliani, Sihana Bistro blends Georgian and Mediterranean influences with a focus on community connection and hospitality. The team is known for their social impact work in Newark, including meal programs during the pandemic and partnerships with local cultural organizations.
For Newark Urby residents, Sihana Bistro adds a new layer of convenience and connection, just an elevator ride away. The bistro is designed to be an extension of home: a place to grab a morning espresso, meet friends for dinner, or wind down with live music on Sunday evenings. Residents also enjoy exclusive perks, including special events and cooking classes. In addition to full table service, the bistro features live music every Sunday evening and a rotating lineup of interactive cooking classes for guests. It is open daily from 11:30 AM to 10:00 PM.
