Good time, rainy but we felt safest sitting outside. The manger proactively moved our table since we were getting a bit of a drip on ours. Great service, good food
Meze's outdoor dining setup was great. It was a particularly cold, rainy night when I visited, but their heat lamps and covered roof made the evening enjoyable. Highly recommend!
The service and food here were outstanding!! Not only was the food delicious and filling but it was all for a great price! They followed social distancing protocols and we had a cute table upstairs in our own little nook! It was perfect! I can't wait to try it again!
Always a great experience at Meze! The food and the service is excellent.
It was really good experience. They provided adequate space between tables and offered hand sanitezer whenever you need, servers were wearing masks all the times and they cleaned every table and chairs before every seating. Service, food and ambience was outstanding. Turkish dishes were delightful, we started with some small plates such as sigara boregi and mucver and later on we ate our main courses which were shrimp sautee and iskender, the food were delicious, and if you want to eat the best desert in this world you have to try kunefe and thank me later.
An amazing place to go for bottomless brunch (and at a great price point)! They have unlimited food and drinks, so you get to try a lot of different things on the menu! Everything was delicious and the service was spectacular, will definitely go back.
We were able to sit on the sidewalk patio with heaters, tables are far enough from each other. They offered hand sanitizer. Food was delicious, our waiter was kind and informative. They have hot cocktails such as Turkish hot toddy which was my favorite. Thanks to Meze for such a good experience, definitely I will come back.
Great bottomless brunch. Good service, deal, and food. Heaters worked well for outdoor seating during covid.
Food was great heaters out side awesome drinks!
Birthday brunch was fantastic
Fun spot to sit outside, really friendly and attentive. Good kabobs.
Dined outside, had a great time. Recommend the grape leaves, zucchini cakes, all the spreads, salmon kebab was great.
Great value for brunch! Service was a bit slow for a time limited all you eat/drink, which may be on purpose, but delicious turkey cuisine nonetheless!
Love all the food and the new outside dining is amazing
The bottomless brunch is one of the best in dc! Great food and great service!!!! The veggie delight and French toast were my favorites.
Heaters outside! Everything is done well; food, service, covid measures.
Very friendly customer service. Would recommend for brunch.
Meze is always great, great service and food. Also, all servers wear a mask and gloves. They offer hand sanitizer everywhere. They have contactless menu and tables are far enough from each other. They have heaters with extended patio. P.S. You should really try their best dessert in D.C which is KUNEFE.
Sat at the street patio and enjoyed several small plates including hummus (with eggplant), shrimp, and a adana kebap ... we asked the servers for recommendations and they didn’t disappoint! The mojito menu was large and the kunefe dessert was to die for! Plan to return soon...also they told us when is rain full cover patio . When is cold they have heater . We gone return all you can eat brunch . See you soon
The food was not fresh and actually it was one of the worst food I have ever had in a restaurant.
Very close to authentic taste. I will definitely eat at Meze again.
Made last minute reservations and glad we did! Excellent food, bottomless drinks including alcohol, and a large varied menu. I highly recommend!
Amazing food and excellent service! Absolutely will be coming back!
Meze is always great - great service, food, and an experience! They have adjusted well to post-covid dining times with hand sanitizer for all customers, spaced out tables, outdoor dining, contactless menu's, staff also wore masks and gloves. Highly recommend the dips, zucchini cakes, and lamb sis kebabs!
Really good and varied food, and very pleasant and attentive service.
Great place! Food is delicious. Cocktails are yummy. Waiters are always gracious and have great tips for traveling to turkey as well.
Hidden gem
The only problem is that the entire menu looked amazing. The food we ordered (meatballs, lamb kebob, babaganoush) was the best we have ever had. The mojitos were superb. Price is on the higher side potentially, but a perfect first date spot.
The food is great and the servers are absolutely wonderful! They even gave us a free green tea shot at the end of our lunch. Would definitely recommend! The patio is nice (extended onto the street due to covid). Portions are small, so the tapas may add up... but it’s worth the price.
I would definitely return!
Came to this place for all you eat & drink brunch .They had very clear policies . All server has mask and gloves . Sanitizer everywhere. Table not close each other . Disposable menu. Also street eatery . They have extended patio for the street. We sit there . As there was a group of us, we shared plates and got to taste everything that we ordered. And it was all wonderful.2 hour for $35 perfect deal .try kunefe dessert. Amazing
Service was excellent, but food quality could be improved.
We try their all you can eat dinner $35 per person plus drink options $14.99. After 2 hour everyone’s at the table tipsy and big belly 😄we ll come back for brunch all you can eat and drink sure .always good
Amazing!!!!!
We ate last night at Meze and it was an excellent experience. The food was great, the service was attentive and friendly and the restaurant was attractive and comfortable. But what took this from a nice evening out to a really memorable evening was the server. He went out of his way to make us feel welcome, he helped us navigate Turkish wine selection (something neither of us was expert at) and he explained the dishes and some Turkish food.We will be back.
Hi, thank you very much for taking the time to leave such a nice review. We are glad to hear such kind words. We always do our best. Looking forward to seeing you soon.
Went here for a family dinner . It was a busy night for them had lovely attentive service and delicious food. I'm a big fan of tapas generally and enjoyed many of their dishes. Overall I'd eat here again the very next time I'm in town.we miss brunch i heard all you can eat its perfect for brunch .next time then
Hello, We are glad that you and family loved our services, our dedicated staff will be pleased to learn of your high praise.
Great bottomless brunch deal - pretty small and quiet restaurant but you get to try a lot of different menu items.
Hi Loge, thank you for your nice words. Hope to see you again.
The food and service was excellent. It was a non-arrogant yet still moderately fancy dining experience. I would definitely recommend and we will be coming back.
Hi IanM, thank you very much for your nice review. Hope to see you again.
