Like A Local GuideFebruary 3, 2015Derived from the word 'meze,' meaning small plates, the bistro-meets-tavern cuisine is inspired by Greek, Italian, Israeli, and other Mediterranean flavors. They also have great drink deals! Read more
Rachel PortFebruary 1, 2015We got ricotta croquettes (amaze), margherita pizza, shrimp saganaki, steak skewers (wow), falafel buns, lamb burger w. (soggy) truffle fries, chickpea crabcakes, halva parfait & mini donuts SO GOOD!
Manda ShettletonMarch 13, 2016Champagne happy hour at the bar ($6 until 730) before our 8pm dinner reservation. Gnocchi and quinoa salad were great! This place is small but it has atmosphere. Could stay all night.
Joey JApril 8, 2015Try the Grilled Octopus and the Brussel Sprouts w/ Figs and Gorgonzola. Food was great, but the restaurant itself is a bit crammed. There is also a ton of construction on Houston so it's a bit chaotic
Keith McKenzieJanuary 21, 2015The brunch here really exceeded expectations. All food was delicious, which is not necessarily the norm for bottomless mimosa spots. The option of various juices to go in mimosas is appreciated.
Steven YDecember 9, 2012Get the falafel buns, grilled avocado salad, truffled gnocchi and sweet potatoes; sit at the high top table to avoid the high traffic movement from the wait staff - the restaurant is quite cozy
Dan KaplanJuly 22, 2013Come for a cocktail on a low humidity night. Sit at the bar, have a marg and enjoy the breeze whipping off Houston and Allen. But if you don't look and drown out the horns, you could be on a beach.
laura temelJanuary 24, 2013Gnocchi was excellent, a must. The grilled avocado salad and Mezetto trio both stood out as well. Great service! Highly recommend.
This place is the bomb, hands down. The friendliest service I've ever had, amazing food, unique cocktails. Brussels sprouts and figs are amazing, as are the falafel buns
Bitches Who BrunchOctober 15, 2015The Bitches say: B+. Unique Mediterranean brunch fare and a great bottomless deal in a great Lower East Side location. Read more
Sara 🌈⚔🍾April 14, 2016Amazing Mediterranean food! The dips and shakshuka are not to be missed. They also have unlimited mimosas every day!
AdnaMay 16, 2015Baked eggs shakshuka for brunch. The cauliflower in the tomato sauce was delicious. Wait staff was friendly.
Aliya BMarch 24, 2013Amazing food. Definitely get the grilled shrimp, the eggplant caviar dip and the sweet potato plate. Everything was delish though, can't really go wrong.
Nicolette RomeroDecember 7, 2014Absolutely obsessed with their spicy feta and lamb burger! If you're considering the hummus or eggplant caviar, skip both. Trust me.
Damian BayonaDecember 20, 2015Lots of fruity mimosas to keep the gossip flowing during your boozy brunch 💁🏻. Shakshuka is delicious. The grilled cheese is a nice alternative.
Drew SicklerSeptember 21, 2016Awesome spot to have a bottomless brunch. Plates were delicious; try the duck confit skillet. You're welcome.- Susanna AnFebruary 12, 2015Large helping of delish hummus. Interesting twist on falafel - still great! Great both and you've got a meal
ali nicholsMay 3, 2015The food is spectacular! Try the crab cakes and ricotta croquettes. You won't be sorry!
Layla AlotaibiMarch 16, 2016A modern take on the Mediterranean cuisine (tapas-style dining). Loved the za'atar fries!
Bobby SimpsonMay 19, 2017My girlfriend wanted to grab a bite here and I wanted to pee. They were closed so my girlfriend unfortunately did not get to try their well-rated food but they let me pee anyway. That's a rare gem. 👍
Ha DiemAugust 23, 2014Great place for brunch and bottomless mimosas! Drinks were refilled constantly, great service.
Shani CampbellMarch 10, 2017Baklava Donuts with chocolate dip....delish😋😋! They're coffee is great!!!
Era SinghJuly 28, 2013Yum! Get the truffled gnocchi and falafal buns!!! And the service/waiters are great!
MarthaFebruary 7, 2015friendly staff, good food. get the unlimited sangria special. truffles gnocchi was tasty.
Wonderful food, great sangria and great service and best of all the do brunch everyday of the week!
- Wendy QiuMarch 31, 2015Steak skillet for brunch was mostly potatoes .. comes with a harissa aoili.. steak was nicely cooked, but poor cut of meat
Suzy TranFebruary 20, 2018Steak hash was pretty good. The portions are a bit small. Definitely a little pricey for what you get.
Leanne ZFebruary 14, 2016Falafel buns! Brunch and service was pretty good. Crowd was loud and young.
Ernesto GutierrezMarch 4, 2017For the price, all of the dishes were lackluster. The octopus was too dry, the steak just felt plain. The dishes have a healthy take on them. You won't walk out feeling bloated.
Naz ColakogluNovember 15, 2012Portions are way too small and it ends up being too expensive for a LES restaurant. Food is good but not too wow. I ordered truffle gnocchi and pistachio meatballs.
Megan GemNovember 11, 2012Definitely save room for dessert and get the halva parfait- mind blowing good!
KristiMay 12, 2013Tasty lamb meatballs, but $13 for 4 small meatballs?! First and probably last time here.
