    Was in the mood to check Mezeh a few weeks ago and have come back a couple times since. This place reminds me of Chipotle but more Mediterranean food and a lot more options to choose from. The space is huge inside. It's always been pretty empty whenever I've come to get lunch here but the staff are friendly and helpful. I've built my own bowls, each time a little different depending what I felt like trying. I love their eggplant and the different sauces they have available. My bowl can get packed with all the ingredients I add and it has so much good flavor. The portion size is great when you add a lot to it. I definitely intend to keep coming back here when I'm in the Crofton area!

    Chicken Shawarma bowl with basically all the sides and S'hug sauce. Usually grab an extra full size piece of pita to go with with it.

    Amazing everytime I go. The food is incredible, with a plethora of delicious and healthy options. The atmosphere is welcoming and mysterious. I always end up "Shazam-ing" a song on my phone while there. The manager and staff are super kind and helpful. I've been coming here for years and will continue to do so even after I move further away. I love this place and I wish them nothing but success and growth.

    Mezah never misses the mark. I stopped in for lunch and had my usual bowl with chicken kebab as the protein, mixed greens, white rice, and all my favorite toppings. Of course, you can customize yours to your liking. The place is usually pretty quiet, though it's always busy. The servers are quick to take your order, making the experience even better. Perfect for a quick lunch or dinner pick up to go.

    Stopped by our favorite fast food restaurant because it doesn't taste, look, or feel like fast food. As always, the food was fresh, delicious and HEALTHY! The prices are very reasonable considering the generous plate you'll enjoy. Beautifully furnished, with team members exceptionally kind and patient as you choose which Mediterranean delicacies you want to enjoy.

    Walking into Mezeh for a quick bite, I wasn't entirely sure what to expect, but had a great experience. To give a quick overlook, Mezeh feels like a slightly elevated version of CAVA Mediterranean Grill - it offers a Chipotle-style of ordering where you walk through a bar and select what you want to add from their large array of options. I got greens/rice as the base + shredded lamb + tons of toppings and sauces. The lamb was cooked extremely well and it was tender, flavorful, and delicious. All of the toppings were pretty impressive as well. They didn't feel like negligible add-ons, but each one had its own unique palette of flavors that added to the dish. The only "downside" I could think of was that including tip, the bowl came out to be $17 which feels relatively steep given the casual nature of a restaurant like this, but for the amount of lamb I got, I still feel like I got my money's worth. Nice spot, I would check it out again if I'm in the area.

    I think Mezeh and I just simply have a love/hate relationship. I've gone through a rollercoaster of ups and downs with the Annapolis location. I got to attend an Elite event at the National Harbor location which was great. Not to mention, Mezeh is a popular vendor at Yelp parties. I was excited about having a location closer to home but my recent experience was pretty mediocre. The service seemed to be all over the place. It didn't seem to flow properly. For those unfamiliar, Mezeh is like a Mediterranean version of Chipotle. You state that you'd like a bowl, wrap, salad, etc. and you go down the line adding things to it. When it was my turn to order, there was no one there to get me started as the other employees were helping other customers at the end of the line near the cashier. The available employee began working on an online order so I stood there awkwardly for a few minutes until someone finally came to get me started. Then as I was picking my toppings, a few things were empty that had to be replenished as they were making my bowl. During checkout, the cashier was too preoccupied trying to assist me and another customer at the same time which just seemed a little more chaotic than it needed to be. As for the food, it's still pretty good and I love that you can get limitless toppings on your items of choice. I certainly loaded mine up. I got a rice bowl with chicken shawarma and allllll the things. I think the main issue is the service. If that tightens up and is a little more efficient, it would be great. I love the decor in the interior. However, I don't think they're doing indoor dining right now. I didn't see anyone dining in at the time.

    As far as I'm concerned, this is the best fast food deal around not only is it delicious. It's also healthy. These bowls were $13 each. A burger fries and a Coke and Five Guys is nearly $20. Staff was great. Food was fresh and delicious my favorite go to fast food restaurant.

    You can literally stop and eat the rainbow when it comes to food options at Mezeh!!! I love when casual fast food can be as quick as it is healthy you can never go wrong. While you are not limited to a bowl, that is typically me go to because it allows me to get not only my greens and grains in but it makes it easier to get all my toppings in. My choices are spinach and basamati rice, chicken schwarma for my protein and a heaping load of toppings such as crumbled feta, spicy feta, cucumbers, pickled onions and tomatoes. I like a little dressing on my bowl so I went with the vinaigrette. My visit would be remissed if I did not get one of their lovely crafted juices and my taste buds were screaming for the Peachy Lemon Watermelon which was a nice ode to the transition from spring to summer. The taste was so refreshing and crisp. On and you need, matter of fact is should be mandatory that you get a cookie to round out your visit. The cookie I had was a mix between a sugar, snickerdoodle chocolate chip base (without the chips) with a hint of toffee, purely amazing!!! The location is rather large and offers table seating and high top seating so you can dine low or high. Plus when the weather is nice you can sit outside in their gated and lighted area. Staff was cool and allowed you to take your time crafting your masterpiece.

    I am so happy there is a location here in Waugh Chapel not too far from my house. The best way to describe Mezeh is the Mediterranean version of Chipolte with more selections. I typically order the grain bowl with kale and brown rice. My meat of choice is typically lamb but the lamb it okay here, the chicken shawarma is the way to go, it is delicious and perfectly seasoned. The toppings can be a bit overwhelming a plethora of hummus and vegetables to pick from, I love the spicy hummus, roasted corn, and olives. The fresh bread that comes with the bowl is amazing, so soft and perfect to dip into your bowl. The price point is reasonable, usually about $8-$10. I save my bowl for the next day because of the portions. I recommend downloading the level up or Mezeh app if you frequent this restaurant. After about 6-8 bowls you earn $8 off.

    Food and service so good you'll forget you're in a mall parking lot!…read more We were out running errands and decided to grab a bite. Unfamiliar with the area, I jumped on yelp and found The Farmhouse with its 4.4 star rating. So there we went. The Waugh Chapel area is a giant shopping center. Wegmans, Old Navy, Verizon, etc. The Farmhouse is in a new building near the man road. Their whole thing is farm to fork, with some herbs and greens grown on site and others sourced locally. The service is great! Fast and friendly. Instead of bread or rolls, they warm you up with some country style homemade cornbread. Freshly baked, cast iron skillet, with butter and syrup. Yum! We had the meatloaf and the chicken and chicken and biscuits. The meatloaf was tasty, with homemade mashed potatoes and perfectly cooked fresh green beans. The chicken and biscuits is kind of like a chicken pot pie without the crust. The biscuits are on top so you can decide how much bread you want. The vegetables are nice and fresh, and the chicken is perfect white meat. A++ on both entrees. For dessert we had half-baked, which is an ooey gooey cookie and a brownie in a cast iron skillet topped with ice cream. We liked it, but next time I'll probably have just ice cream because the ice cream was absolutely perfect. Where are you? Stevensville? Baltimore? Solomon's? Alexandria? DC? You should make the drive to Waugh Chapel Station and get some fresh, delicious, better- than-home-cooked food.

When we arrived, our table appeared to be ready right at our reservation time, but we still had to wait to be seated. It wasn't a long delay, but it was a bit confusing and felt like a service issue. The ambience is beautiful and well done, and the bathrooms were clean. The food itself was solid across the board, and the chicken and biscuit was actually even better the next day as leftovers. Unfortunately, the service was the biggest drawback. Refills only happened when we asked, and splitting checks for a large group was more difficult than expected. At one point when a correction was needed, a member of our party noticed the server visibly rolling her eyes, which didn't help the experience. Drinks are also served by the can rather than fountain style, which made them feel overpriced without refills. For a place that presents as upscale, the experience shouldn't feel nickel-and-dimed. Overall, nice atmosphere and good food, but the service needs improvement before I'd consider returning.

For dinner, I ordered the OG Cobb salad with no avocado and no bacon, extra chicken, and added broccoli and onions, and it was amazing.

I decided to treat myself and got the brownie crumble from the honey bar. I was surprised to see grapes in it at first, but surprisingly, it worked. I have never had grapes paired with brownie before, but now I see why they made this combination. The only small downside is I could have used a few more pieces of brownie because I ended up with more toppings and grapes than brownie at the end. Overall, Honeygrow is consistently amazing. The staff is friendly, the space is clean and inviting, and I am genuinely so happy this location opened. I honestly do not know what I would do without them.

It's in a shopping center, so nothing stressful there, and the restaurant itself is easy to spot. Walking in, the first thing I noticed was how clean, polished, and classy everything looked. Even though it was busy, it didn't feel chaotic. The staff immediately greeted me and asked if it was my first time which I appreciated. They didn't just rush me through the line; they actually took time to explain the menu, how the bowls are built, and offered samples. That alone made the experience feel welcoming and intentional. Now let's get into the FOOD. Everything looked fresh. They have about four rice options (which is already a win), and I went with the pineapple coconut rice. For my protein, I chose grilled chicken, but they also offer shrimp, salmon, and even a mushroom option for vegetarians and honestly, the mushrooms looked so good I almost switched. For my added sides, I kept it simple because I really wanted to taste everything. Collard greens and sweet potatoes. But they also had plantains, and okra....real deal soul food options. Then you get into the fresh toppings. Slaws, carrots, pickled veggies. I kept it light. I finished my bowl with collard green pesto (which intrigued me, and I'm glad I tried it) and added an étouffée sauce over my rice... and listen!!!!! That combo? Chef's kiss. I grabbed a tropical punch juice, and just like everything else, it tasted fresh and well-made. Let me say this clearly: the food is a 10/10. If you're someone who will give Chipotle chance after chance, then you absolutely owe it to yourself to try Spice Black. 10/10. Worth your money. Worth the hype. Worth the experience.
