The food was great and the restaurant looked pretty nice inside. Our waiter Effie was very nice, informative, and welcoming. We had the tomato basil hummus and it was very good. I'd also definitely recommend trying the octopus and lamb chops appetizers. I can't wait to come back here

I came here for my birthday dinner a few weeks ago... and I was super impressed. I'm a SD native, and always have passed by it and finally stopped in... I WISH I HAD BEEN HERE SOONER! Staff was friendly, drinks and dinner was amazing!

Great place for lunch near Petco Park! Just returned from a trip to Greece and was missing my Mediterranean food. Meze did not disappoint. Had the soup and a Greek salad. Their menu was extensive and it was honestly hard to choose what to eat.

This is our favorite restaurant for happy hour downtown. Amazing baba ganoush, hummus, calamari, gyros... priced right with fantastic drink specials, we can't recommend this place enough. It's one of the first places we recommend when people visit San Diego.

Pretty pretty damn good food! Honestly the Lamb was so amazing and cooked to perfection. At first I thought I was eating a beef filet. Great atmosphere and amazing food. A must go while visiting Gaslamp

You cannot go wrong with anything on the mezes menu, but ESPECIALLY the shrimp ouzu! Trust me! With it being so close to the ball park, it's great for some pre-game drinks and eats, but it's a wonderful place to take a date or a group of friends. Generally, a very well-rounded location and restaurant.

Found this while on a food tour, but then had to come back for more. Excellent and delicious food and drinks. The Sangria was our favorite, but also loved a couple of the other cocktails we tried. We had the Greek quesadilla with was amazing and a the Gyro appetizer which was tasty and easy to share as it came ready to assemble. Fresh, yummy tzatziki sauce was good, but I liked the house-made hot sauce even more.

Meze will have a very special place in my memories of San Diego. The atmosphere pulls you in, even when it wasn't busy yet. Airy, open floor concept with a big bar, comfy chairs and booths (I took the booth), Greek decor and warm colors make you feel at home, but I've seen it busy after 6pm and it's hopping! The service was a bit slow at the beginning, but quickly escalated to perfection. I had the lemon and rice chicken soup and was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed it. I normally prefer thicker, darker soup base, but as light and zesty this one was, it was also full of flavor and not too 'lemony'. The main course was a shrimp 'salad' with a bang. Literally, they set it on fire tableside, and you can enjoy the crunch of the shrimp and delicious mix of vegetables with perfectly grilled pita bread. I topped it off with one of better (but not yet the best) bread puddings with ice cream. I'm definitely coming back next time I'm in town!

I recently dined at Meze Greek Fusion, and it was an incredible experience! The atmosphere is vibrant and welcoming, perfect for a cozy dinner or a fun night out with friends. The menu is a fantastic blend of traditional Greek dishes and innovative twists. I highly recommend the spanakopita and the lamb gyro—both were bursting with flavor! The staff was friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed. Don't forget to tell Patrick hi! Don’t skip dessert; the baklava is a must-try! Overall, Meze is a delightful spot for anyone craving delicious Greek cuisine with a modern flair. I can’t wait to return!

Service & food here 10/10 !
Came into eat tonight & was served by Kristina. She was very kind, knowledgeable & attentive. Between her and the support staff our drinks were never empty and our table always cleared of plates & cleaned.
The ambiance was amazing! With certain dishes being served on fire, a fire eating dancer roaming the floor, candles, dim lighting... who could ask for more !
We ordered the gyro meza, spanakopita, & lamb chop plate to share and the baclava for dessert. Everything was 10/10. The lemon sauce on the lamp chop plate was so good I could've drank it. The only critique was the baclava was slightly drier than we preferred but the flavor was still all there.
& Heard they also had a great happy hour ! We will definitely be coming back.

Well I didn't eat here, but was blown away by the esthetics, and feeling I hot when I walked into the bar. There was so much to take in. I think it would be a great place to go on a date. Had a couple of drinks. The vodka didn't taste like titos, so I am unsure if they forgot to give me the good stuff when I asked. I'd go back to try the food.
