I intermittent fast for good health and a vibrant immune system and there is no better way to come off of a 16 to 24-hour fast than at Mezeh. The food is not only as fresh and natural without a lot of ultra-processed sugar laden junk food, but the variety is the best you'll find anywhere. Ten if u are on their rewards system, every so often your meal is a FRACTION of the cost. Mezeh is the best, and I have eaten here in many cities ... as Tina would say " Simply the Best" Look at this bowl and compare it anywhere

Hearing that sentiment I was intrigued because I never thought about a fish gyro. So when it came out the staff asked what would I like one it. I'm not gonna lie the fish was cooked to perfection. Golden brown and looking like your favorite uncle made it. I asked for the works and as he struggled to close the sandwich I had a bit of excitement on my face, because I was ready for my 2009 chipotle wrapped gyro (not sure if they still fill them like that). And the first bite I felt like an influencer who got paid to give there opinion. Making one of those OMG I can't believe this food taste so good faces willing to throw anything around (I threw my napkin across the table for the effect). But seriously the gyro was really good, it was satisfying, light and immensely flavorful. The restaurant was clean and tidy. Its worth a trip if your in the area and your welcome for the gem!

The muhammara is so unique and addicting, if we didn't have a ton of food coming, I would eat 2 orders. For our entree, we split the family combo and ordered 6 add'l lamb chops because they are exceptional here. Cooked perfectly and nicely seasoned, these aren't the tiny chops you find at most places. These are huge, pork chop size and by far, the best entree on the menu. The family combo came with lamb chops, beef/chicken kababs, lamb/chicken adana, kofta, rice, salad, and more pita. With the exception of the overcooked beef kabab, all other meats were moist, tender, and really flavorful. Service was also very good on a busy dinner evening. Will return soon.

The hostess was good, she wanted to seat us in an enclosed section, saying it was warmer. The waitress returned to our table often and met all of our needs. The food was yummy and fresh. I enjoyed bringing some home to eat the next day. This restaurant should have 3 dollar signs because 95% of the entrees are over $30. One star is lost for atmosphere. No matter how nice the decor was, needing my coat and scarf to eat indoors was ridiculous. You see the reason we weren't seated in the warmer section (the hostess's words) was because the owner told her to seat us elsewhere. We learned that he was the owner when our waitress gave us rice pudding from Rudy. We didn't complain and that pudding almost earned the star back. UNTIL my husband stopped at a room heater that was positioned away from our table. Ugh

I would say this is more of a 3.5, rather than a 4 star review, continue reading ... The restaurant is beautifully decorated inside and out, with blue lights throughout. We loved that! We sat outside and were happy that the patio area wasn't very hot and that the nice large umbrellas protected us from the sun and were lit up when it got dark. We started with Saganaki, which included pita. It was flambed table side and delicious, we all loved it. We also had Calamari, I don't eat it but husband and daughter really enjoyed it. For entrees, husband had the special (filet mignon w/crab cake and shrimp on top), that came with mash potatoes and veggies. The steak was good but undercooked, the crab cake was good. Daughter had the pasta, she didn't really love it. I had the lamb shank with orzo. I don't usually like lamb but it was very tender and didn't have the aftertaste that usually comes with lamb. The service was very good, waiter was very attentive, replenished waters often and made good suggestions. Although we liked the restaurant, we felt that as a Greek restaurant there should be more Greek styled pork, chicken dishes. We also felt that some items were overpriced, specialty dish was $75, rib eye was $68, lamb shank was $55, roasted chicken was $39, etc. We will not return for another dinner, but might consider going for lunch to get gyros and Saganaki.

We ordered the 4 mezeh appetizer plate (4 8-oz containers). There are a number of choices and we got the baba ganouche, Mirza ghazemi (eggplant, tomato, garlic), pickled cabbage and beet hummus. Most were very good (I would say the weak one was pickled cabbage - crunchy, but not as flavorful as it could have been.) The beet hummus was a new item for us and we both enjoyed it very much. The dips were accompanied by a decent portion of triangles of pita. The pita was "ok" - a bit hard and chewy. We each got chicken kabob. The chicken was very moist and flavorful. I got mine in a platter with half salad and half rice. I enjoyed both. We also ordered roasted vegetables, which were one of the highlights. Onions and zucchini - roasted perfectly. The platter is a lot to eat and we took most of the dips home for another time. The staff were helpful. One person was friendly and the other oddly not. The restaurant seating area was comfortable.

For a couple of months my friend, who is of Turkish heritage and lives out in Germantown, wanted to meet me closer to my home to go to Cazbar. We went on Saturday, 9/6/25 for lunch (lunch prices are better as why I shot for lunch time). We walked in, and it was fancy Middle Eastern decor. Server was nice & efficient answering questions. I got their take on flatbread pizza called Lamb Pide. Wow, the lamb and pizza as a whole was amazing. My friend got some more expensive platter, which looked good. If I came back, I'd maybe get something like what he got. My friend (& me to a lesser extent) were cogitating on getting a dessert. I think me saying we ate a lot, it's extra calories, & prices are pretty high for dessert, ended up swaying him not to get dessert. Plus, there was a Greek festival and might get a baklava or other dessert there, which I did. Overall, my impression was wow, this place is impression, and I want to go with my girlfriend one of these days, maybe on a weekend before a movie at AMC Columbia or something.

Speaking of cool. They have iPads as their menu. Fancy! The "Topkapi torch" was really good. A spicy bourbon drink! I got two! I would come back just for this drink. We tried a few apps. The beef pastry was delicious. We also did a sweet potato dish. The beef was my fave! For my entree, I did chop chop, which came with chicken and lamb. I thought it was good but not really worth the price point! Our server was just ok. He seemed a bit distracted and wasn't super personable but it didn't take away from the overall experience. The manager was very engaging and friendly. We would visit again!
