They are closed. Like a fool I made reservations there thinking they reopened. :(

Mezze cancelled my reservation for 4 less than 30 minutes before the reserved meal time, citing a transition in ownership triggering the need for an “administrative day.” Made no sense, given it was 630 PM on a Friday. It was intended to be my wife's birthday dinner. Ruined the night. I will never dine there again.

This location is either permanently closed, or they just decided not to open that day. Despite the website listing them is open, and having the ability to book on OpenTable, when we showed up for our reservation, the entire restaurant was dark and closed. Clearly they had not opened that day. Entirely unprofessional. Avoid this restaurant at all costs.

Whenever I am in Fells Point, I go to Mezze. The food is always so good. I was there on Thursday for happy hour. Half price plates. Everything was delicious and great service!!

We made reservation for dinner on a Saturday night to try out this place and it was probably already not a good sign seeing that the place was practically empty at peak dinner hour on a Saturday night. We ate downstairs and so the bartender took our order. We ordered 5 items on the menu and the bartender took our order but didn’t remember so he came back to clarify the orders. 4 items came out and we were like ok no big deal, we’ll just ask him about the 5th dish that we order when we comes by to check on us. We started eating and I was really not impressed by anything. It was extremely overpriced for what you were getting. The grilled portobello was literally 2 small portobello mushrooms on 2 small pieces of bread with some cheese, parsley and half a cherry tomato on it for $8. The grilled octopus was 1 small tentacle cut up into small pieces with some salad and ton of lemon juice for $15. Flavor was blah and nothing really stood out. We never got checked on so I didn’t even bother to ask about that 5th dish that we ordered considering how nothing was that great to begin with. No one ever came by to refill our water or check on us. When they gave us the check, there was a 20% service charge on it. This place was not worth the time and definitely not worth the money.

Slow service. Very few people in the restaurant but took a long time to get drinks. We could see the bartender chatting with customers which is fine but he could chat and mix drinks at the same time. Problem with one of the items ordered. Took awhile to tell us. Just not like it was before the pandemic. Went previously for Restaurant week. Waiter told us that both of us had to order the restaurant week menu even though one did not want to do so. Didn't seem correct or appropriate

We have eaten at Mezze previously. Our experience this time was very different. Our table was not very appealing, pushed in between the kitchen and the bar. Our waitress was not very good. Brought out one of the appetizers when dinner arrived. Brought out a dinner when eating appetizers. This dinner had to be sent back because it was cold inside. One of the beers was warm. The braised beef was not very good. Once positive note was that the Musaka was very good. And luckily the prices are good. But based on this experience, we would most likely not return to Mezze.

Okay Okay

The grilled octopus tasted like a fridge with a bad odor and extra lemon juice. It came with a parsley salad with a little couscous. This also had extra lemon juice. The lemon drop martini wasn't good. First drink I probably left on the table in 20 years. The crab cakes actually were good, but they put this spicy aioli on it. It ruined the sweet fresh flavor of the crab. The third thing I ordered never made it to the table. I waited 30 mins for the first dishes. After 45 minutes of ordering, I asked about the oven baked oysters I ordered. I was told they were out. But as if he already told me. The servers were not attentive at all. The place was loud, the tables wobbled, and the chairs reclined as if they were going to break. I will never come back.

Went for a poetry night recently. They were late getting started and only one poet performed. Additionally, the people (DJ and MC) organizing the event got into a disagreement which all of the guests were witness to for about 15 minutes as they shared their displeasure over the microphone instead of playing music, which is what would help to improve the atmosphere. The food was not flavorful and was over cooked. However, the drinks were really good, and the server was attentive. Order the wings from next door (their sister restaurant).

Wow!!!! This place was recently renovated/redecorated during the pandemic, and the interior is absolutely gorgeous, with modern, classy, but still cozy decor & plenty of space for private events. Luckily, the restaurant kept an authentic Greek-inspired menu, which includes lots of variety, including the best lamb chops i’ve ever tasted! The cocktail menu also has some creative and fun drinks, in addition to classic cocktails. If you’re a fan of authentic Mediterranean food, great service, and what i’ve heard is a killer brunch, make sure to hit Mezze!

Nice pub atmosphere. Food was hit or miss, twisted feta and tzatziki were very good but they charged extra for the pita how else would we eat the dips? The meatballs we good, the lamb chops were cooked well beyond well done, nearly impossible to cut with a knife. Service was friendly and adequate. Wine ordered was not the wine delivered and we were told it was the only wine they had.
