    Happy hour prices on wine and cocktails
    Tomas R.

    Had the opportunity to have a dinner out with friends downtown at Lamezze and it was a great opportunity to see what the space is all about. This is a mediterranean restaurant with a primary focus on signature dishes yet some had their own flair which was nice. A fairly intimate restaurant, you could find a few table tops and seating at their bar. We had a reservation for about 6 people and we're placed in one of their central tables. This restaurant is across the building hallway from the Aloft Hotel for those who are staying downtown. I enjoyed their happy hour that we were able to enjoy which ended up being a daily hh if I recall correctly. From signature cocktails including their margarita and select wines, you could choose your choice of elixir. Food was decent and the table enjoyed it overall.

    Lamezze is one of those downtown El Paso gems that immediately pulls you in -- the kind of spot that feels like it should be buzzing in a bigger city, yet somehow still holds that local warmth. The vibe is elevated Mediterranean chic: soft lighting, stylish plates, and a touch of romance that makes it ideal for date night. The service? Spot-on -- attentive without hovering. They have an impressive list of drink options, plus a full bar tucked off to the side, and it's connected to a charming hotel, which adds to the whole experience. Now the food -- absolutely phenomenal. Their vegan options go beyond the usual: calabacita soup that's cozy and flavorful, falafel and hummus done right, and my personal favorite, the roasted fire cauliflower kebab plate -- charred to perfection. And then they surprised me with hummus-stuffed jalapeño poppers that were downright addictive. My husband went for the same dish, bacon-wrapped (mine, obviously, sans bacon), and we both cleaned our plates. Fair prices, generous portions, and an atmosphere that makes you want to linger -- Lamezze nails it.

    It's 11 am and I'm staying at the Aloft downtown El Paso, I'm hungry I missed the free breakfast. Then I remembered there's a restaurant on the first floor. I make my way get a seated right away, table for one. It's busy but they have 3 waiters in duty and they are moving. I order and although it takes a bit my Whiskey Pecan French toast comes out with a homemade breakfast patty. The French toast is very good, sausage patty not my style. But I eat it. Then I was still hungry so I order the Moroccan Shawarma off the lunch menu with the house salad. It comes much quicker than the French toast did and it was my favorite thing I had there. Shredded lamb in a carnitas way. Loved the flavor, the Tzatziki sauce was good and I thought I might need more but realized I didn't, it was the perfect ratio. House salad was good with their tangy house dressing. I am coming back for that Shawarma!

    I visited this restaurant in El Paso for a very late lunch and early dinner on a Monday. I had flown in early for work meetings and hadn't had a chance to eat all day, so I was really craving something filling, nutritious, and preferably at a sit-down restaurant after hours of travel and driving. I remembered this spot because I'd stayed at the Aloft next door on a previous trip, though I hadn't dined here before. I'm glad I finally did. The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the seating was cozy. While the booth had a bit of dust on it, it was easy to wipe down and didn't affect my experience. The waitstaff was friendly, attentive, and helpful throughout my visit. Thet served me water immediately and I got a blueberry refesher-like drink (non-alcoholic), as well as the vegetable kabob platter, which came with yellow rice and a variety of veggies. I asked to substitute the tahini with whipped feta, and they were happy to accommodate. The whipped feta was quite tart and tasty, though it was a bit crumbly and hard to spread on the pita bread. Still, everything was fresh and flavorful. Because I was so hungry and eating at an odd hour -- too late for lunch, too early for dinner -- this meal really hit the spot. It kept me satisfied for the rest of the evening. While I ended up grabbing dessert from a nearby bakery across the street, I could have easily stayed for dessert here as well. Overall, this was a clean, affordable restaurant with great service and a solid Mediterranean menu. A great spot to dine in El Paso!

    Service was slow but food and drinks were good. I would definitely check it out again. I love the green and gold aesthetic.

    Great tasty food, fast service and we really liked the place. Nice views of downtown.

    The food was not bad, the waitress treated me weird when she saw I came here by myself to have lunch. I can't imagine that's very abnormal. That being said, they stuck me in a corner in a very uncomfortable spot. The place has a good vibe if you're trying to find a place to chit chat and grab a bite with people, just don't come alone.

    Came to brunch while visiting El Paso. Didn't disappoint. Food was delicious. Edgar was a fantastic waiter!

    I wanted something healthier for dinner and found this place on Yelp - it was perfect! Lots of great dinner options, but we got the roasted cauliflower as an appetizer and I had the pecan crusted salmon for my entree. It was really flavorful and fresh although the dressing was a bit too heavy on the arugula. The cauliflower was average. I really liked the ambience here and the fresh flowers at the table. Our sever was very attentive and quick. There's only street parking nearby.

    The downtown location is a perfect spot to meet friends for brunch. The menu is very Mediterranean, which means heart healthy! I came with a gal pal and the place did not disappoint - the atmosphere was relaxing and service was on point. My friend scarfed down her entire gyro before I had taken a few bites of my dish- she said it was really really good!

    Calabazas
    Brenda M.

    Ambiance is nice. Seating is limited. Service for 5 was slow to be sat and order to be taken. Though the sever got everything right w no notes! Food- we ordered the calamari which was SUPER salty. They over seasoned it. Soo much that we couldn't finish them. Very thin pieces. Also ordered Brussel sprouts (very good and seasoned with like a sweet and spicy sauce) and Bacon Jalapeños w humus, everyone said they were good. Also ordered a salmon bowl and bowl of calabazas- bowl is a huge size so be aware. They are a bit spicy. Also a chicken wrap w fries. Not sure if I would be back but would recommend to try.

    Love the decor, probably my favorite of any small restaurant here! The food is good too, and my guests loved it. The only thing I'd change is the location sometimes is hard to find parking at, and there isn't a bathroom in the restaurant so you have to go to the hotel next door. Still, it's a very solid restaurant and a great addition to El Paso.

    Chicken kebab
    Diana M.

    Dined here after a meeting downtown and the food was prompt and delicious! I got the tortilla soup and the chicken kebab meal, which was huge by the way! Would definitely recommend, amazing flavor, cute decor and great service. Check it out if you're in the area!

I kept it classic with waffles, bacon, and eggs--and it absolutely hit the mark. The waffles were light, fluffy, and perfectly golden, the bacon was cooked just right, and everything came out fresh and satisfying. Simple comfort food done right. But what really elevated the experience was the atmosphere. They had live musical entertainment by Louie, who was incredible. He played a mix of hits from yesterday and today, moving effortlessly between country & western, contemporary favorites, and traditional Spanish songs. His versatility created a warm, lively environment that both staff and customers clearly enjoyed--it added something special you don't find everywhere. Service was just as impressive. Our server, XAY, had a bright, welcoming smile and provided outstanding service from start to finish. They offered great suggestions on local favorites and specials, which made the experience feel personal rather than routine. The vibe overall is relaxed, inviting, and very "El Paso"--a place where you can sit, enjoy your meal, and stay a while. Overall: Delicious, well-executed brunch classics Live music that enhances the experience (not overwhelms it) Exceptional, friendly service Comfortable, welcoming atmosphere Would I go back? Without a doubt. This is more than just brunch--it's an experience.

    My friends and I had dinner at Neighbor Good Kitchen & Bar on Friday, May 1 during BTS weekend in…read moreEl Paso, and it was such a wonderful experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely amazing -- everything we ordered was flavorful, fresh, and beautifully prepared. You could tell a lot of care went into both the menu and presentation. What really stood out, though, was how attentive and genuinely kind our server was throughout the evening. Even with how busy El Paso was that weekend, we never felt rushed or overlooked. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, and it ended up being one of our favorite dining experiences of the trip. If I return to El Paso in the future, Neighbor Good Kitchen & Bar will definitely be on my list of places to visit again.

    For starters I would say this spot was simply okay. I would bring some friends here for drinks and…read morevibes but I wouldn't come back on my own accord. For starters the atmosphere was so cute. Absolutely loved the bar and hanging pots everywhere. Such a clean restaurant and cute vibe. Our waitress was very nice and friendly to us. So no issues there! For drinks I got their berry lemonade which tasted just like lemon juice. I had to request for sugar to be added since it was so sour so beware. My food had came out and to be honest I'm just a little bit disappointed. The rigatoni was cooked but the sauce for it was really not tasty? Like there was almost not a flavor I can taste. Of course there was something but it was very plain and barely even there. It also was not spicy whatsoever. I added grilled chicken too and oh boy was that dry dry DRY. The burrata personally I'm not a fan in general so of course I wouldn't be a fan this time either but they gave a nice little plate full of it. They added some oiled toasted bread and it was way too crispy in my opinion. My partner got the chicken Parmesan and his dish tasted great! Very juicy chicken and cooked all the way. The sauce was perfect too nice and flavorful and great pairing with the chicken. His butter noodles were just like regular butter noodles so not bad. Finally the crème brûlée. Probably the most disappointing dish we ordered. It took repeated stabs to break the sugar glaze on top. Me and my partner were honestly thinking that they added the cream on top to hide how burnt it was actually. Unfortunately because the glaze was so thick and burnt it made the rest of the cream taste have the burnt flavor. It was sad because my partner was looking forward to this desert. Also took wayyy longer to arrive than our entrées. I will say that the waitress was very helpful and she actually covered the crème Brulé. I didn't even ask she just offered, I think she could tell that we didn't enjoy it and I had nicely told her it wasn't what we were expecting so thank you sincerely. Overall I think this is a perfect spot to maybe try drinks and hang with friends. Food was okay, wouldn't try it again in that regard but overall a decent spot here in El Paso if you're looking for something new. Maybe best to ask what's their best dish to serve. Overall thank you.
