We did the large Mezeh feast for our group of 8 people and it was absolutely perfect! We added on the greens so some people can make some salads as well and it was perfect! The chicken shawarma had great flavor and had a little spicy kick to it! If you're looking for a place for a big group that has some healthy, flavorful food, totally try this place out! You'll be happy you did. read more

When you have a catering order, don't expect to be able to get ahold of anyone if you need anything. The main State College line is automated and the number on the invoice is headquarters with no help. Response to manager's comment below - does not make a difference, nobody responds back read more

5/5 Food: Great for fresh options. I had the falafel, chicken shawarma, and spicy steak bowls and liked each one. The portion sizes are large, enough for lunch and dinner. The spicy foods were actually spicy, and the falafel was fresh and not dry. Definitely my quick go-to salad/ fresh bowl place for now. It is cold and cafeteria-style. Great option for state college. 4/5 Ambiance: modern/ industrial fast casual looking interior- tile-like wall is pretty, as are the jars of pickled vegetables and the cage lattices separating the dining high tables. Overall a clean feel and not too sterile feeling, though it may be on the border of being a bit too-bare-bones. This is the kind of place I could see bringing someone from out of town to. Music was really loud, as seems to be the style at these kinds of places, which could make quality conversations hard to do. 4/5 Service: Service was good. I ordered three bowls and they were served promptly. It didn't seem like anything special to make the dish, the server was literally looking at the recipe on the receipt and putting scoops of each into the bowl, which makes sense, especially for custom made bowls. This destroyed all imaginations of a chef custom making a dish to be tailored to the seasons, etc but the food was still tasty. (0/5 Bike parking: after looking I couldn't find a place to secure my bike) 5 : I will actively tell other people to go here 4 : I am happy to go back. 3 : I will go back if a friend suggests it. 2 : I will go back if someone is really insistent. 1 : I will not go back. read more

The decor was nice but the place was dirty and it was empty. The 2 staff members working were just sitting on their phones. They seemed highly uninterested in working and taking our order. The food had good flavor but was cold. It has potential but needs good management read more

The place is nice and modern with a good ambience. Staff is friendly and helpful. Food is fresh and made with the ingredients you want. read more

Mezeh is a natural mediterranean food restaurant that makes their food from scratch daily. If you're familiar with Chipotle consider Mezeh as the mediterranean version.They claim to have over 30 toppings with various sauces but who's counting. You can pick a "pre made" offering or a "build your own" bowl, pita or wrap. Now like Chipotle it's a fast food style establishment so don't expect the 4 seasons. Mezeh is situated in one of the newer high rises along Calder Way. If you're driving then access stinks but parking is available within a block or two. The restaurant interior is fresh and modern and I enjoyed the atmoshpere. It's a newer restaurant in a College town so staff and service can be hit or miss. During my visit they were slow so everything seemed to work out great. I ordered a falalfel bowl and it was delicious. It had some pita on the side, hummus, tzatziki, tahini, and an assortment of mediterranean toppings. Their falalfel was fresh and moist. I was really surprised by how much I enjoyed this place on my first visit. Pricing was similar to chipotle ($10/bowl) which I thought was very reasonable for the portion size and quality. I can't wait to go back! read more

Such a great spot! They have amazing vegetarian options -- the falafel was incredible and so flavorful. Portions are huge and super filling, plus I love that all the bowls come with a little pita on the side. The staff were kind and welcoming, and service was really quick.

mezeh - falafel classic - Mediterranean Near Me - State College, Pennsylvania

Noone knows English. Its a shame the owners don't take pride in there restaurant. Its good food terrible management.

Open late and made to order wraps and bowls! Cool decor, and plenty of seating. I ordered a falafel bowl with tzatziki, rice and greens. Nice healthy meal and added a falafel wrap for my wife. Spicy hummus, cucumber, lettuce and rice. Tasty spices and freshly cooked falafel balls. We hope they're more closer to bucks county area. read more

It's very good for a quick lunch in State College. Wish we had one in Pittsburgh. We hit this place up almost every visit.

I wish I liked this place more. Ordered takeout and maybe they were just having a bad night. Paid extra for lamb in a bowl and it had a small little scoop. Honestly felt ripped off by this place. The bowls weren't filled up, missing items in each of the bowls, and just generally lackluster. Really disappointing and I don't think I would go back or recommend anyone else to go either. There's way better Mediterranean food in state college. read more

See all

Where do I start? The location is great. The food is great. The service was fabulous. The staff running this location was amazing. I have been to many Mezeh locations on the east coast. The portion size was hands down the best from any location I have been to. The food was super fresh. This is definitely going to be a treat for my daughter attending Penn State this fall. read more

The food was good to okay. The kids didn't get blown away, service was very quick. The place was clean and quiet.

Price is on my personal high end for lunch, but very good portions and fair for the quality. I like the variety of toppings available- baba ganoush is good in particular. I usually get the chicken kebab. You can also get a mix of greens and rice in your bowl. I appreciate that when dining in, they do not use disposable tableware read more

Food was really good, but no Shwarma! The staff were quick, polite, and helpful. Clean restaurant.

Friendly staff and big bowl. I like that they gave me a real dish and a real fork. It's healthy and delicious. Nice bathrooms also. read more

Delicious quick service Mediterranean food with reasonable prices. The bowls are much better value than the wraps.

We were in the area and searched for vegetarian options and wow were we lucky that we chose mezeh. Super healthy and delicious at a very reasonable price. My daughter chose a pita pocket, me a bowl, and both were quite good and very filling. You get a lot for your money here. We looked up all the other locations - once and we are hooked! read more

Love this company! Always fresh food and you get soooo much. I have tried a lot of these style restaurants in mezeh continues to be my favorite. Wish I had one where I was going to college. You can definitley make each meal into two easily and its great the next day too read more

Food is absolutely amazing!!! Quick service and in my honest opinion, way better than Chipotle

I really wanted to like this place because I love Mediterranean food. But, I simply can't. Tried this place twice already. The food was cold. It's served cafeteria style and one of the workers there both times (same employee) was visibly sick with no mask. Why in the world would someone coughing be serving food? The good - roasted eggplant, pickled turnips, Turkish yogurt dip, Greek beet dip, Greek Feta sauce, and vinaigrettes. Some things are spicy that aren't marked as spicy. Prefer kebob over shwarma, which is spicier. Pita was good. The tzatziki is watery and yet the lemon garlic is thick. Place is really popular, but I much prefer Roots which is similar in style but the family enjoys way more. Truly appreciate the allergen menu. read more

I always pick up orders there and they take so long making the food , it's really frustrating waiting 20 minutes just for a bowl . I think they should put more people to work on the line to make it faster read more
