Mezeh in Bowie, Maryland.
Joseph S.

We had lunch at Mezeh at the Bowie, Maryland location today. It has been a few years since I have been to a Mezeh restaurant. It was a great experience. The food was delicious. The server gave us large food portions. The workers were friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was clean. The bathrooms were clean. The restaurant has a fun and trendy ambiance. Lots of parking but due to the way the shopping area is designed you may have to walk a little bit to get to the parking. I downloaded the Mezeh smart phone app while I waiting in line to place my food order and I got $5 off by downloading the app. I will be back for sure!

I went here on an early Saturday afternoon a couple of hours after opening. The food did not appear too fresh. The store was pretty empty so service was fast. Ambiance is pretty standard compared to other franchises, but it was clean. It would be nice to see fresher food items. Also, parking is a bit chaotic depending on time of day.

My byo-bowl was quite delicious, though really considering the experience, taste, and price compared to the competition (Chipotle & Cava) I would say they didn't quite impress me. They offer ample variety, with very unique flavors, and combinations- however ordering via the app it wasn't very user friendly to balance my bowl. They didn't offer the option via app or online ordering to do 1/2 portions or 'on the side' I opted for mixed green bowl, with added on extra cost shredded lamb, maxed out my ten topping choices with a variety of veggies, and 2 sauces. They got my sauces wrong, they gave me hearty portion of meat, but skimped on balancing the ingredients- and overloaded with the sauces Everything was well seasoned, moist, juicy delicious- but overall small toppings portions. Also the free pitas were really hard (stale). Overall, glad I tried, again a decent dinner, but really wasn't impressed compared to our other go-to eateries

Absolutely delicious! Admittedly, I had not been to this Mezeh location since the grand opening Yelp Elite event in 2019. It was this location that opened my eyes to Mezeh Mediterranean in the first place. I got a bowl and it's just like their slogan says "seriously good food, made from scratch". All of the toppings were fresh, well seasoned and plentiful. Thanks for reminding me that the Mediterranean, healthier version of a Chipotle is still there!

Mezeh definitely is a place I can get behind. While I have never been to a Mezeh before, I love going to build your own bowl Mediterranean eateries. I liked the options that they have, I wish the lamb wasn't only available as shredded and the falafel is drier than I would like but I still thought everything tasted amazing. I loved all the sauces they have available and how flavorful everything was. I can see how their is service issues here, when I came to pick up my food there was only 1 person working the front and a line of at least 15 people. If I didn't order online, I would have left. Overall, I thought it was a great meal and I will definitely try some more bowls and proteins.

3 1/2 stars. Stopped by Mezeh in the food court at the Westfield Annapolis Mall. Mezeh is a chain in the MD, VA, NC area that serves Mediterranean bowls, wraps, and pita pockets. Pick you base (greens, rice, kale, grains, etc.). Then pick your protein. The proteins have a Mediterranean flavor and include chicken and steak shawarma, lamb kefta, and falafel. Then pick 8 toppings. There are about 30 toppings that include different types of hummus, salads, and vegetables. Finally, pick your sauce. I ordered a combination of greens with the grain of the day as my base with falafel as my protein. Toppings included two types of hummus, turnips, baba ganoij, eggplant, Turkish Salad. I saw the falafel was not made to order but I had it anyway and it was just okay. I have had much better. The hummus was good Eight toppings sound like a lot but they are small portions. I was not impressed the staff. I had some questions regarding how to order and the person taking care of me was very impatient. I like having this as a healthier choice in the mall, but I hope the staff can be a little friendlier in the future.

There are sooo many options in Bowie Town Center. Rather than driving around and struggling with deciding I selected Mezeh. I usually get the spicy lamb, but I don't eat red meat often so I selected a kale bowl with roasted veggies kale bowl shawarma delight. I mixed the two chicken options and I added all the veggie options. My favorite part of creating my bowl is selecting the sauces! I would definitely stop by if you're in the Town Center, and your looking for a healthy quick food option.

What a great addition to the healthy food scene in Bowie (hint: there aren't many healthy food options here)! It's the Chipotle style of food service where you order in an assembly line sort of deal. Food options all looked good to me and I was happy with my falafel bowl. The place was packed on a Saturday night. Long line of people waiting to order. That wasn't the fault of the staff; people weren't used to how to order and were taking a long time to ask "What's that red stuff? What's that grain stuff?" etc. So hopefully as soon as people get acquainted with Mediterranean ingredients like pickled onions and falafal and bulgur the ordering process won't be so looong. Good value for the price ($9.25 for a bowl, $8.50 flat bread wrap, $7.50 pita pocket, $5 kids bowl), especially considering that you're eating something so nutritious. You could pay as much for a fried mess elsewhere or come here for a healthy, flavorful meal. I'm going back ASAP!

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. That vinaigrette deserves its own shoutout because I truly do not know how they make it taste that good, but it is absolutely top tier. 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.

Period…read more I've been seeing this place all over social media, so when I found myself in the area, I had to see what the hype was about. First off, parking is easy. 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.

The restaurant is nicely decorated with vibrant colors and very clean. The service is friendly and welcoming. The food was okay. Not bad and just good in my opinion. Its not rave worthy but its still good. I would come back and try other options. This is still a good healthier option oppose to the many of terrible choices we have to choose from, this beats most unhealthy fast foods restaurants. For that reason I would return to try other food options. If you like chickpeas then this is your meal, Im not so it threw off the salad to me. I would have preferred chicken. Honestly, everything came together nicely as one salad, nothing was over powering. I'm just not a fan of chickpeas. They do have an option for shrimp but dont eat bottom feeders so that wasn't an option for me. My tastebuds are much different from yours so I would still give it a try. You might like it a little more than me. Its still a fairly good meal.

They do a lot of carry out business but the dumplings are so much better if dining in and fresh out of the kitchen. We were informed that our food would come out as it was ready. This worked fine for us. Absolutely no complaints. Cucumber salad and edamame were excellent sides to enjoy while we waited for longer menu items to come out. Forgot to take photo of the Mongolian beef so photo is just of my tasting. Dumplings were amazing. Daughter pulled up video of how to eat soup dumplings while we waited. The spoons were smaller than the dumplings but I found I could suck the soup from the top of the dumpling before biting into it which helped avoid losing the broth (careful, they are served HOT temperature-wise) Loved the truffle dumplings. I have also had the sampler which I recommend if you are new to the place (1 each of 6 different soup dumplings). The green beans and kimchi chicken dumplings were seasoned nicely and were enjoyed by all as well. Service was super. I have already been back twice, once for carrot and again for dine-in. Fine in preferred especially if getting dumplings. Only downside was parking which the restaurant can't change. Oh, be aware that their online presence mentions being in the bustling Bowie Town center... it is not but definitely should consider it as their next location! (Please????!!!!)

I did not partake in the fine in experience though the customers seemed very pleased with the atmosphere and service rendered. I ordered the pork dumplings and spicy green pepper w/beef over white rice. Both were quite tasty. Now after doing some research the soup dumpling (xiaolongbao) is what I was expecting. No worries though because the other dumplings were also good. The pepper bowl was well balanced, tender, flavorful, filling, and seasoned. Next time I'm going to opt for the Ugly rice bowl upgrade. I was informed it has extra spices and seasoning while would enhance this dish even further. The food prep time wasn't too long or too short allowing for the appreciation of made to order. Overall for a carry out experience 4 of 5. If you're in the area please give them a try and partake in the fine in experience.

I would have preferred that they tell me they did not understand instead of just charging us extra. My family first tried CAVA in Westchester, NY during a community event where they gave out free meals for whomever scored a free ticket, and asked for donations for a food security organization. The food was great but the manager there was trash. He was dismissive with "some" people that showed up but gave out free meals to others that obviously did not have a ticket. He also let non-ticket holders enter while other's were turned away. This exchange was very reminiscent of my first experience. I'm feeling like maybe this just isn't the kind of company I want to get behind. The food was great in NY but what they offered in MD was not great. The service at both left much to be desired and that tells me that this is a detriment of the company dynamics as a whole. I will also add that I ended up feeling not so great overnight. I won't ever come back again, not to any CAVA locale. Bully for you if you do.
