    Hummus Sampler platter

    I saw this new place on Instagram and wanted to try it out. My wife and I love Mediterranean so we were excited to visit this new concept. When we arrived there was no clearly designated parking and the valet service was $10. I am a disabled veteran and there was NO handicap parking anywhere to be found. I drove around 2x. Once inside the ambiance was very nice and our server Wilson was NEXT LEVEL awesome. The food was delicious but a little pricey for lunch. I had their house martini and it was one of the best I have ever had. Here is what gives them 4 stars and almost 3. The owner/chef Tim Love was in the restaurant today and there were not that many people dining. He walked right past my wife and I to introduce himself to another table. We got up to leave and he was by the bar area and blocking our way out. We had to excuse ourselves to get around him and all he could say was hope you had a good lunch. I only knew who he was because of his Instagram post. My personal opinion is that he should have made it more personable. I know many restaurant owners in the DFW area and we met and became regular customers of their establishments because they went out of their way to make my wife and I feel welcomed.

    Opening night in Fort Worth. Packed house. Mediterranean aromas floating through the air. Your humble Texan wandered in expecting dinner and walked out planning the next visit before the check even arrived. Meraki opened with energy, excellent service, fantastic kebobs, and a goat cheese dip that deserves its own fan club. Cocktails were sharp, the room had serious style, and the whole evening felt like Fort Worth got itself a new hot spot. Tonight my wife and I headed out for opening night at Meraki, the newest restaurant from Fort Worth chef Tim Love. Reservations were set for 6:30. We showed up early because opening night crowds tend to behave like Texans lining up for free brisket. Sure enough, the place was already humming. The hostess welcomed us in and guided us past the bar. That bar looked fantastic. Bottles glowing under soft lights, bartenders shaking cocktails like they were conducting a symphony. Rookie mistake on my part. Next visit begins right there. The dining room had real energy. Music moving through the space. A full house. Staff everywhere and moving with purpose. Service was exceptional from the moment we sat down. At one point they even brought a small stool so my wife could place her purse beside the table. A purse stool. That little detail set the tone for the entire night. We started with cocktails. I ordered the Mythos mule. Lime leaf infused vodka, citrus, and ginger beer. Crisp, bright, refreshing. It landed on the table ice cold and woke up my taste buds immediately. My wife ordered the Athenian spritz. Otto's Athens vermouth, Aegean, and tonic sparkling wine. She took a sip, smiled, and gave the official verdict. Delicious. Next came something not listed on the menu but absolutely worth requesting. The dip trio with pita: black garlic hummus, whipped goat cheese, and tzatziki. All three were excellent. The whipped goat cheese stole the show. Creamy, tangy, smooth, and dangerously addictive. I kept telling myself "just one more bite" about seven times. Then came the main attraction. The kebob trio, another off menu move that allows you to sample all three: lamb kofte, grilled short rib, and chicken. Each skewer arrived sizzling and beautifully seasoned. The lamb was bold and flavorful. The chicken was perfectly cooked and bright with herbs. The short rib completely stole the spotlight. Tender, juicy, and coated in herb oil that soaked beautifully into the meat. You cannot order kebobs without a side, so we added the lemon domino potatoes. Thin sliced potatoes layered together and roasted with herbs and lemon. They arrived crispy and fragrant. Slightly salty, still extremely tasty. Of course we had wine with dinner. My wife enjoyed a rosé while I went with a red from Hedgehog Vineyard. Both paired nicely with the savory flavors from the kebobs. Then came dessert. The 12 layer chocolate cake looked incredible, but we went with the Raspberry blood orange mpezedes - Raspberry blood orange swirl sorbet, pomegranate syrup, and fresh mint. Bright citrus notes and just the right amount of sweetness. A perfect finish after a rich meal. Throughout the evening the restaurant stayed lively. Staff moved smoothly, drinks kept flowing, and the entire place had the buzz you hope to see on opening night. Meraki launched with style. The atmosphere feels vibrant. Service was polished. Cocktails were excellent. The goat cheese dip and the short rib kebab will absolutely bring us back again. Next visit begins at the bar!

    Yelp Elite Event…read more... I tell you, Kendall, once again, you put together such a wonderful evening. It is always wonderful to see our Elite Family. I love West Jax! The environment is relaxing and classy, and it was the perfect place for a night out. Customer Service: Always top-notch! Brittney, our server, was always present and was able to help me choose the perfect drink that matched what I desired. I wanted a Whiskey Sour, and because they did not have that on the menu, she suggested the Smoked Rosemary Blackberry Bourbon Sour. She was spot on; it was delicious, and it was my first time to have a smoked drink. It was different, and every drop was enjoyed. Our entertainment for the evening was Clover the Violinist. She is FULL of talent and kept our tunes going the whole night; she perfectly mastered all genres. I was happy to find out, she plays at that location occasionally. I'd love to support her, when able. She played a bit of SZA, Justin Beiber, Chris Brown, Chris Stapleton, etc. What a great night of entertainment! The Food: Crave Cookies - Thank you, Crave. I appreciate you adding to our beautiful night with your cookies. Perrotti's Pizza: Thank you, Perrotti's. I appreciate you treating us to pizza! What a great night!!

I'd definitely come back again later in the evening to see what the vibe is like later at night, as I've heard that they have a DJ during late night. I also like that there's a parking lot in the back.

The noise level was extremely high...we literally had to yell just to have a conversation with each other. Service was also very slow. It took about 15 minutes just to be acknowledged at the bar, and close to 30 minutes to actually receive a drink. When I finally ordered, I told the bartender to make her favorite drink. She made something that included raw egg whites (which I later learned is common in certain cocktails), but it wasn't mentioned or explained at the time. A few hours later, I became very sick...vomiting and dealing with what felt like severe food poisoning all night and through the next 24 hours. After looking into it, I suspect it may have been related to the raw egg used in the drink. Just something to be aware of if you're ordering drinks like a whiskey sour or anything that may include egg whites. After getting our receipt (which you need for the speakeasy entry code), we checked out the speakeasy portion, but the vibe there wasn't great either..pretty must the same as the other part of the bar. We ended up leaving within about five minutes. Overall, the experience didn't live up to the hype for us....between the noise, long wait times, and how we were treated, it just wasn't enjoyable. For comparison, the bar next door, Archibald, felt much more welcoming. Maybe regulars have a different experience, but as first-time guests, we were not impressed.

As the name might suggest, this places focuses on cocktails throughout the world. Nonetheless, as the opportunity presented itself, we have usually opted happy hour. The first time I came here, I asked for a drink that was recommended. The bartender made a wonderful espresso martini. Despite what I mentioned, this was not on the happy hour menu. It was still a great drink nonetheless. I should have clarified from my end that I was looking for a happy hour drink. Good level of espresso liqueur with smooth vodka. Also, simple presentation with the coffee beans on top. The second time I came here it was also for happy hour. This time, I got the Bee's Knees. This was refreshing and sweet. The harshness of the gin did come through at times but at a tolerable amount that wasn't overwhelming. I liked the visuals of the dehydrated lemon slice. In both visits, we were regularly checked on by staff seeing if we had anything else to order, to gets dishes/glasses out of the way, refill water, etc. Always so kind! I will also note that the restrooms are incredibly clean and well-stocked. Although I've only come to Atlas for happy hour, I would certainly love to come back some day later in the evening because I've heard the vibe and atmosphere is especially more lively during that time.
