    I have always enjoyed the food at Mezza but last night they surpassed my expectations. We had the sweet potato salad that was a delicious combination of flavors. Our entree was the pistachio crusted lamb chops. The presentation was spectacular and the chops, broccoli and potatoes were so delicious that we cleaned our plates. My friend remarked that she hated to finish the meal.

    Food was good, service was fine, but we were seated RIGHT next to the bathroom. As a first time guest (also noted it was a birthday), this was pretty insulting. There were other open tables; yes they were parties of 4 but they were empty the entire time we ate and we could have used the extra space with all our mezza. This table by the bathroom should not even exist.

    Have been a few times. Everything is good. Especially like atmosphere that enables a conversation easily and well spaced tables. However, didn’t get to enjoy it this time because there was a power outage and it was closed when we arrived. Very unfortunate for the business. Would have been nice if they could have some how notified folks with reservations. Could Open Table support a restaurant ear with that?

    We came into Mezza for a Sunday evening meal with unexpected guests. They seated us in the back so we could talk. The food was as delish as it was at busier times at this restaurant, and there were plenty of vegetarian and fish options for our friends. I'd especially recommend the chicken tagine, which smelled as great as it tasted, but everyone liked their main dishes!

    Our waiter who we’ve had before was one of the most rude I’ve ever experienced in my 40 years of going to restaurants! He was constantly pushing us to order, pressuring us to order all courses at once, he lied about “a big party coming in, you need to order before they get her”, he kicked us out of the restaurant when there were still other patrons. I will not go back if he still works there, and I go consistently every 2 months.

    This was my 3rd visit,once B4 for lunch & once for dinner. Food is very good, generous portions & good service. However it seems prices have gone up tremendously in past 6 months. Like that restaurant is BYOB. Next time will probably order a bunch of appetizers to share since prices r very high.

    Delicious healthy food. Sides are carefully thought out and not just an afterthought. Server was good and friendly but I was a bit surprised that 20% tip was automatically added for a party of 2 with no warning. I almost double tipped by mistake. I was going to give 20% anyway but I didn't like that they just snuck it in.

    Mezza is an excellent Mediterranean restaurant. Superb food, presentation, décor, and service. Servers are very knowledgeable and makes great recommendations. They readily accommodate dietary needs. Everyone we bring to Mezza loves the place. Notably, they also are very supportive of the Livingston community and the township library. Show your Friends of the Livingston Library membership card and get a 10% discount! We started with some mezzas (spreads) and the crispy cauliflower. They do about the best preparations of branzino of all restaurants in the area. Another had a nightly special – a truly delicious 10 oz filet mignon. Another had the duck, which has a new preparation that is great. BYOB. A wine shop is an easy two-minute walk away. Plenty of free parking. Very highly recommended.

    Always order 1 or 2 appetizers because they’re delicious and the main plate takes a while to prepare. Be sure to bring your own wine when headed over though: great wine shop in the plaza but Sunday hours are spotty.

    The food is always excellent. Had the mezze plate, halumi cigars, salmon, and halibut. All excellent. Service was a disaster. We waited 90 minutes for our main courses, with repeated apologies from our waitress. Obviously wasn't her fault, but not fun outside, getting cold out and dark out.
