Motek, the fast-expanding mini-empire of Mediterranean cafes, just claimed its fourth Manhattan location.
Parent company Happy Corner Hospitality will open the next Motek at 184 Bleecker St. in the West Village, former home to Cafe Figaro.
The tenant was repped by KSR, a brokerage led by Carolina Azia and Samuel Chera.
The 3,900 square-foot venue will open at the corner of Bleecker and Macdougal streets in January.
Happy Corner founder Charlie Levy said, “In the 1990s, this was my go-to spot when I was younger, and bringing Motek here feels like closing the circle.”

As we reported, Motek previously signed a lease to replace Serafina at 2178 Broadway uptown and another to replace Rue 57 at 60 W. 57th St.
It’s already opened at 928 Broadway in Flatiron where crowds come for hummus, mezze, shawarma, kebabs and steakhouse cuts.
