    Simply a very enjoyable experience with good friends. We shared appetizers (the Morocan Cigars and the crab cakes were outstanding) and dips (Tabbouleh and Baba Ghanoush), which were all good to share. The main courses (Duck Confit and Lamb Shank) were also flawless, high quality, tasty, and good portion sizes. A couple of deserts were nice at the end. Service was impeccable, prices were moderate, especially in light of Mezza being a BYOB. Noise level was "lively".

    I always have a great experience at Mezza. We had the hummus, and the crispy cauliflower as appetizers and the red snapper special and our entree. All were delicious. The chocolate soufflé is a must for dessert.

    We have been dining here for many years, since they were on Westwood Avenue. One of our favorites is their signature Braised Lamb Shank with spinach and orzo, unfortunately it was totally off the mark this time. Lamb was a bit dry and did not fall off the bone as usual. For $42 a serving, this should be perfect every time. Very disappointing. Crab cake and Hummus appetizers were delicious.

    This is definitely a special place to go for a celebration. I have been there many times and they never disappoint. Food was excellent and ambiance is lovely. I would recommend this to everyone. It is a bit pricey so be prepared, but worth every penny. Bobbiela

    The food served at Mezza is unique and authentic. The flavors are powerful. The food is high quality and a pleasure to consume. We have not been to Mezza in about 2 years. The new, improved menu is even better. This is a top restaurant!
