    Meze Moon is hands down one of the best hidden gems in Chico. The food is authentic Mediterranean at its finest from warm, fluffy pita straight out of the oven to a perfectly crispy falafel that actually crunches. You can taste the care and tradition in every dish. The atmosphere feels welcoming, like you're being invited into someone's home kitchen, and the staff truly treat you like family. Portions are generous, prices are fair and the flavors are unforgettable. I've eaten at a lot of restaurants in Chico, and Meze Moon is in a league of its own. If you want food that's fresh, healthy, and absolutely delicious, this is the spot. Chico needs more places like this so don't sleep on it. Highly recommend the Rack-of-Lamb and finishing with their Baklava and Turkish Coffee. Once you try it, you'll be hooked.

    Had such a good experience here!!! We got the family platter (for 4) and split between 6 people and it was so much amazing food. Amin the owner made our time so special. He got us coffee after the meal where he did a reading on two of us which was so fun and so accurate. Would recommend this place to anyone looking for amazing food, yummy drinks, and just a good atmosphere overall !!!

    Birthday Baklava and Turkish coffee. So delicious.

    Meze Moon is one of my favorite restaurants in Chico. The owner, Emin, is one of the nicest, most generous and personable people I've met. He tries very hard to make your experience special. The atmosphere of the restaurant is warm and inviting, and the food is amazing. We had the appetizer sampler, which has the best hummus I've ever had. It was so smooth and perfectly garlicky. We also had a meat platter that had beef koobideh kabab, beef shish kabab, chicken shish kabab, and salmon, and everything was delicious. The salmon was so perfect and flavorful. He also sources everything locally, which I love! He made my birthday very special, opened a bottle of champagne for me, had balloons and flowers on the table for me, and didn't charge me a cent. The service was absolutely stellar from all members of the waitstaff. He also served us Baklava with a birthday candle and Turkish coffee. He even read our coffee grounds when we were done. It was the best birthday experience I've ever had. I'm excited to go back.

    Had an incredible dinner at Meze Moon tonight! The service was personal, fun, and super fast- everyone made us feel so welcome. We had the appetizer combo (amazing way to try a little of everything!), the chicken kebab, and finished with baklava and Turkish coffee which is my absolute favorite. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Highly recommend if you haven't been yet!

    Huge FALAFEL WRAP - steering wheel for size

    Yummy! I used an Uber eats coupon to try this place on my lunch break. I got the falafel wrap and a side soup. It was really delicious and the wrap was HUGE, like 10+ inches !! (that's what she said!) I will definitely come back again, the interior dining area looks like a lovely spot for date night and I look forward to trying one of the main dishes next time.

    Good Mediterranean cuisine ! Excellent service, affordable prices and a fancy and clean space. Chico felt Grande today. Thank you for having us, we will come back for sure!

    Baklava - perfect to my taste!

    We're visiting our son in Chico and I was craving for Mediterranean. It's my favorite food to say the least. My son suggested this and wanted to try this place too as it just opened. I'm very picky when it comes to my favorites, and was a little hesitant about trying it. I've tried many Mediterranean/Greek/Turkish cuisines and i absolutely loved it. I've my favorite places to go everywhere we go on a trip. I've come to compare my favorite dishes on all the restaurants we visited. Moussaka is my fav amongst their dishes (I've tried it in London and Greece - where authenticity is at its finest!) So I decided I will try their moussaka here. Honestly, it was perfect to its core! The softness of the vegetables are great to the palate, the sauce is blended well, and the bechamel is very light and not overpowering. My kids and my husband all Loved their orders. I love their Baklava - this is by far the best for me, not strongly sweet, plus they have gave us an array of small bites deserts to taste and free mint tea to conclude the diner. What can I say about the service except SUPERB! Emin the owner personally attended to us, what a personality, joyful and connects with all his guests (which all Mediterranean restaurants that i go to does, but Emin took time to talk and make his guests comfortable). He makes you feel that you're a very important part of the night. The whole staffs are courteous and attentive to whatever is needed at our table. If I could give service a 10 stars I would. And of course, the place is immaculate! Clean, quiet and very inviting. I love the decors, the lanterns that lit up the place. It's a pretty good size. This is now our favorite Mediterranean place in Chico. We will be regulars for sure! Thank you Emin for a pleasurable first time dining experience, and for taking our pics! You guys are awesome!

    Mediterranean octopus leg ($17) as well as Sigar Burek (set of 4 = $9) appetizers. (Dec 2023)
    Vic M.

    Excellent caring service by Prestyn. Overall the four of us were happy with our meals and especially the service. The Mediterranean octopus leg was good. Moussaka was delicious (different than I've had elsewhere). The Kani Yarik was nice. The Lamb Shish Kebab was descent. The lamb a bit overcooked however it was still moist. No alcohol for sale however they did allow us to bring wine with charging us $10 for corkage fee. Based on their menu prices cloth napkins instead of paper napkins might add a bit more "class" to Meze Moon. Also cleaner menus would be nice (my menu had some food spots inside). I'm glad we have a nice sitdown Mediterranean restaurant in Chico and wish them a lot of success. I hope you will visit them.

    Found another great spot on Yelp…read more This place is a kind of simple, no frills place that has GREAT food. You can see their high quality meats they display in the cold case kind of like a deli (in fact I wouldn't be surprised if this was formerly a deli). You pick chicken, beef or lamb and how you like it (shawarma / wrap, on a plate) and minutes later you are served some absolute deliciousness. If you like Mediterranean food, you will love this place. I say this as someone from SF who enjoys some of the best you can get anywhere. This place is on point and I am contemplating ordering some for delivery on day 2 of my visit!

    Even a cowboy's gotta stray from the coast now and then, and when I did, I ended up at Ali Baba in…read moreChico, where the gyro plate made me feel like I'd stumbled into a Mediterranean chuckwagon dream. That lamb and beef? Thin-sliced, perfectly seasoned, with just enough crispy on the edge to make every bite count. Laid over a bed of fluffy golden rice, it was practically begging for that cool, creamy tzatziki and trust me, they didn't hold back. The hummus was rich and smooth, and the fresh chopped salad balanced out the plate like a well-packed saddlebag. But what really sealed the deal? The stellar service fast, friendly, and full of good vibes. They treat you like a regular even if it's your first time. And at just $13.99, this kind of quality and portion size feels like robbery... the good kind. So if you're wandering inland and your boots need a break, make your way to Ali Baba. Take it from the unofficial Cowboy Duke of Almost Everything on the Mendo Coast this place is the real deal. #CoastalCowboyEats #AliBabaChico #GyroGoals #MendoToChico #FlavorsWorthTheDrive #TzatzikiAndRespect #CowboyDukeApproved #LunchLikeARoyal
