My first thought was "the Mediterranean version of Chipotle?" I am really glad I decided to get some takeout from them because they had a 2-for-1 meal deal so I got two giant bowls (enough food for 4+ people?) and two interesting drinks for less than $21. Dining out these days often ends up being more like $20+ per person so this was a nice change. I doubt we'll get the cucumber mint drink again but I really liked the cilantro kale blueberry carrot drink. The custom bowls were great. I was only in the restaurant for a couple minutes so all I noticed is that it seemed pretty big and air conditioned. read more

BEWARE: Double-check your receipt; we were incorrectly upcharged. We ordered a build-your-own bowl with chicken shawarma, which should have cost $14.55 including tax. Instead, we were charged for a honey harissa chicken signature bowl that costed $17.91. When we first questioned the charge, the employee insisted we received honey harissa chicken. We looked at our bowl and it was clearly chicken shawarma. When we brought it up again, we were told the price difference was only $1. Another employee stepped in and claimed that build-your-own bowls don't include protein and that all protein is an extra charge. We explained that only certain protein options are upcharges (honey harissa chicken + steak and lamb) and asked her to ring the order up again to verify. After checking the register, she realized we were right and refunded the $3 difference. While we appreciate receiving the refund, it's concerning that the employees don't seem to have a basic understanding of their own menu and pricing. They both confidently gave incorrect information before taking a moment to verify the facts. Definitely check your receipts carefully to make sure you're being charged correctly. While we eventually received a refund, we had to dispute the charge multiple times before it was finally corrected. There was no apology--only arguments and repeated explanations for why the charge was supposedly correct. Hopefully management can provide additional training so employees are more familiar with the menu and pricing going forward. read more

This is a fast casual restaurant. It uses the assembly line model to serve mediterranean salads, bowls and wraps. I got the Sultan's Choice mixed bowl, which comes with both chicken and beef shawarma. This was at the Peninsula Town Center in Hampton, Virginia, where there were tons of restaurant chains. But this seemed to be among the most healthy, as most of the others were burgers and fast food and pubs. Ingredients were fresh and there are ample topping options. Flavor left much to be desired. I didn't taste any of the garlicky deliciousness I'm accustomed to with shawarma. Adding a bit of salt helped but not much. Service was minimal. read more

I was taken to Mezeh by a frequent patron. It is set up like Chipotle with bowls that are filled with your choice of a variety of Mediterranean meats, greens, veggies salads toppings and sauces with basmati rice. My bowl and drink cost just over $15 plus tip. Drink offerings are various juices like berry watermelon, lemongrass berry and acai black tea. They were out of a popular mango juice. We got ours to go but grabbed a table. The meal also comes with warm pita bread. Several offerings have quite a bit of kick if you like spice. The upholstery on the seating could use some very serious deep cleaning. Other than that the industrial vibe is strong and well suited to the type of fare on offer. This eatery does one thing and does it well. It serves bowls of select Mediterranean food enjoyed by vegans, vegetarians, lovers of lamb, beef and chicken, and those who love an optional spicy kick. Moderately priced and quick service make this a pretty good place to enjoy some international flavor. read more

I've been looking forward to trying this for a while and was a bit disappointed to have a Mediterranean restaurant that had no Gyro, So I ended up ordering a build a bowl and went with chicken with tzatziki, cucumbers, cabbage slaw and tabbouleh. Worst pita I've ever had seemed blah and under baked Somehow everything was just a tad bland which surprised me. Cute decor wide open but probably wouldn't go out of my way to return. read more

The food and service was amazing! This place is a Mediterranean spin on subway/pieology/chipotle. Pick your greens and rice, protein, toppings and sauces. They have assorted flavors of teas and fruit drinks to pick from. Ambiance was Mediterranean inspired. almost all the seating was a booth or booth/chair combo. They had a couple high tops that sat large groups. This place is good for large groups. read more

Mezeh - Mediterranean Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

Fast and healthy food with plenty of choices for people as far as whether they want bowls, pita wraps, types of greens, toppings, crunchy seeds or nuts, sauces; vegetarians have a fanfare of choices at this place! I started off with a pita stuffed with arugula, spinach, shawarma chicken, cucumbers, eggplant, pickled onions, turkish salad (tastes like a pico de gallo), babba ganoush, and sesame seeds topped with tzatziki and harissa sauces. It started off so sodden that I had little hope of eating it without wearing it had it not been for Hub's donated empty bowl! Hub had chicken shawarma bowl and mixed greens with "assorted options " but the "cilantro lime vinaigrette " combined with "harissa " was the best for my spice loving man. Sadly the place had only one functioning restroom, only plastic forks and no other utensils, and ran out of bowls. read more

Tried Mezah via Door Dash. Excellent food! Veggies are fresh and the hummus is awesome. It's on my short list for return visits.

The Food is excellent but for the amount you pay I feel like my bowl was a little skimpy. At places like this I always look at how much food I'm getting or particularly how full my bowl is. Call me greedy but I like my bowls full. This did not give me that, but the food was very flavorful and delicious. All the veggies were fresh and tasted like authentic Greek/Turkish food. Its a similar set up to a chipotle where your going down the line and choosing your ingredients that will either go in a bowl or on a wrap. The line was pretty long so the locals must love the place, I would recommend the online ordering and pick up option if you want to get in and out. read more

Mezeh - Custom beef shwarma bowl - Mediterranean Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

"Great Mediterranean Food in Peninsula Town Center in Hampton" I ordered takeout here at 6pm on a Saturday night using their website. The system is similar to Chipotle or Subway in that you pick the specifics of what you want in your bowl or pita: meats (lamb, chicken, others), vegetables, cheeses, etc., but all with a Mediterranean flair. I had the "chicken chicken" bowl, with chicken shawarma + kebab, brown rice, tzatziki sauce, carrots, corn salsa, pickled turnips, and more. My son had a customized pita pocket with lamb, hummus, yogurt dip, spicy feta, and more. We took our food to go, but there was plenty of seating available (somewhat casual hipster vibe, and had some outdoor seating)-- it was not at all crowded. The customer service when we arrived was excellent. The lady working there was unusually picky (in a good way) about the bread coming out-- throwing out two batches saying, "this could be better" to get us the best-possible bread. She was friendly with us, too, and apologetic about the small delay (which was well-worth-it to get top quality food). The food was EXCELLENT. Really great flavor in both kinds of chicken. It was spicier than I anticipated, but in a deliciously good way. My mom had a bowl just like mine, and she also enjoyed it a great deal. I appreciate the freshness, the attention to quality, and the friendliness. It was also a good value overall -- the bowls, which could easily be 1.5 meals, were only $15. I'd happily get food from here again, and happy to recommend them. read more

Coming from a place with plenty of Mediterranean food, this place is not it. Lol, their chicken shawarma is very spicy (and always is, as they told me), and they completely forgot four ingredients in my dish. I had to go back and ask what could be done. I did not get any type of warm service; instead, they looked at me like I ate it and then recalled their employees in front of me. They took my bowl (which I used my fork in) and added the ingredients without an apology, and first, that is gross. Just make me a new one or offer a refund or something else. There was also no one in this place for the "ambiance" comment, so I cannot really speak on this, and I did order a pick-up directly from their website. This obviously made it worse, so if you do go to this place, save your money and time by ordering in person. Please do better as I love Mediterranean food. read more

I think the staff here are pretty friendly. The service is always fast, the place is clean and the food is tasty. I'd recommend to everybody to get the caramelized eggplant added to your bowl. Even if you think you don't like egg plant, this is different. Plus, if you really don't like it you can just pick it out. Here's some of my fav things: - chicken shawarma - falafel - veggie kefta - Israeli couscous - caramelized eggplant - beet dip - pita chips - crunchy chickpeas read more

I loved this place as a dine in, but lately as a yelp delivery option not so much. The past couple of times I've ordered to go or yelp delivery the amount of food has been sub par. For example I don't do rice so I ask for greens as a substitute, and half the time I get a small clump of greens. Additionally, I fond that the additional toppings I ask for aren't exactly in the quantities you would think they'd be. Hence why I like being there in person. The staff seems more apt to give a normal sized portion of sides. I still LOVE the food from here and I'll continue to patron it, but I really wish the to go orders were as awesome as the in house orders. read more

The food was great. There is a young girl with long hair there who isn't very friendly. All the other customer service reps are great!

I've heard about this place for some time on Yelp after it opened in Peninsula Town Center. It's a fast casual style restaurant in the same vein as MOD Pizza, Chipotle and others where they serve Mediterranean food. Reviews on here have been mostly positive. So, my girlfriend and I decided to head out to see what the fuss is about and decided if it lives up to the hype. Once we arrived, you can see a sign requiring wearing face masks due to the COVID pandemic, which we already comply with. Now onto the food. For my order, I picked the 'Build Your Own Bowl' option. I picked steak shawarma (protein), white basmati rice (base) and plenty of veggie options (classic hummus, caramelized eggplant, pickled onions, pickled beets, Turkish salad, roasted corn, Turkish olives, dried cranberries) topped with Pita croutons and Tzatziki sauce along with some Pita chips and a mini Pita pocket. (She picked a pita pocket with seasoned lamb and veggies.) This dish was very delicious. All the veggies fit perfectly with the steak and rice. I can honestly say the best were the dried cranberries and olives. The only slight negative I would have is I would've wished for a little more steak in my bowl, but thanks to the rest of the ingredients, it had me full. All in all, pretty good. This will be a repeat and one that's very cost effective. Definitely check them out. read more

Mezeh - Build your own bowl with a mini Pita pocket and pita chips - Mediterranean Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

Delicious doesn't sum up the freshness and amazing flavor of this food. I enjoyed a bowl with brown rice, arugula, falafel, corn, roasted veggies, Tomato, cucumber, chickpeas, and more, with tzatziki on top. Every single layer of flavor was perfect... tender rice, fresh arugula, perfectly roasted vegetables. I had classic hummus which was smooth and great consistency. The crispy chickpeas were a great crunch. The tzatziki was fresh and tasty. By far the best part of the bowl was the falafel... absolutely perfectly crunchy on the outside, tender on the inside and amazing. The fresh, tender, hot pita bread on the side was unnecessary but absolutely appreciated and so good. Can't wait to eat here again. read more

Really good, fresh, and fast service. All so good. The pita slice you ask on the side is small and cold, so don't expect it to be warm or large. But still very good. It could be cleaner in the one here in hampton. We have had been to other locations(all very good). But their large trash cans that belong inside wasn't very appealing. So hopefully this was a one time thing. read more

I've been stuck in my home isolating because I have COVID. I've ordered from this establishment about five or six times over the last week (strictly following no-contact guidelines, obsessively spraying Lysol at the doorway each time and wearing a high quality mask). I felt that the food choices there were far healthier and tastier if ordering was my only option. On today's and yesterday's deliveries, they missed ingredients and they failed to put any of the sauces I requested both times. The bowl I ordered yesterday was missing pickled onions, pickled beets, pickled carrots and cauliflower. The bowl I ordered today was missing crunchy chickpeas and of course sauces were missing for both. It may seem trivial to some, but when you neglect to include the flavorful sauces that should come with the bowls, it ruins the experience, especially when you are paying so much to have it delivered. I called their store today to see if someone could make it right. A lady took my information, but never called me back or had the missing condiments and ingredients delivered . Their food is absolutely delicious, but their consistency sucks. read more

Mezeh - Build Your Own Bowl (The one that arrived with all of it's ingredients) - Mediterranean Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

Went on another Yelp adventure! Tried this place out. I don't know how many times I have drove by and not realized It existence. Thank you Yelpers for highly recommending this Trendy MediterraneanHot Spot. Can I say options!!!! There are sooo many options. And because there were so many ppl in line after me kind of like Chipotle you know everyone is hungry and they want you to hurry up and pick lol I accidentally went during lunch hour I presume. Upon feeling pressured to make so many topping choices. I simply told them to add almost everything. With a side of Falafel ‍‍ The tried something new and got the chicken shwarma bowl on Aruba then added some brown rice and then got only knows what else. Some of the topping that definitely stood out was the cilantro hummus, the babaganoush, caramelized eggplant and Israeli couscous. Loved the addition of fresh mint on top. Fresh herbs on anything heightens flavor in my book. The chicken shwarma was a lot spicier than I expected so be careful if your trying to be a foodie daredevil like me . I ordered the falafel because I was feeling like a fatty. Even after a good attempt to make a dent into my bowl it seem to never diminish in size. Lol. I gave it a good try but when I was done I still had a full bowl worth of leftovers. I paid approx $13.90 for a bowl and side of falafel. Oh let me not forget to add that they gave me fresh warm pita. It was very yummy. I could have eaten a few extra servings of warm pita. All in all I definitely reccomend this restaurant for a flavorful, colorful and healthy eating option in Hampton! #GoodEatz read more

The food was very good. They have a variety of meats to choose from and platter options. The serving sizes are plentiful (so corporate if you're reading this, don't change it) I got the spicy lamb and think I would have enjoyed it more in a pita, mainly because it was falafel shaped. The salads my friends got were so tasty. The service was quick and the staff was friendly. I liked that there was adequate seating inside and out. We were a large group and we did not feel cramped. read more

No complaints. It's like a subway/ chipotle for Mediterranean food. I had a bowl with chicken and got to select my toppings. I think this is a chain and can't remember if I've been to this particular brand but definitely ones like it. Juice Beverages weren't very sweet and I imagine that's the point. Clean, friendly and good food. Five stars for a fast food restaurant. read more

The flatbread wrap or pita pocket, with arugula, bulgar pilaf, cilantro hummus, baba ganoush, steak shawarma, diced cucumber and spicy mango sauce - YOU'RE WELCOME. Mezeh, you're addictive. If I wasn't sure the first time I ate here, then I'm 100% sure the second (and third) time. Fresh ingredients full of bold and natural flavors, there's such an impressive spread to choose from to personalize your meal - be it the flatbread wrap (seriously amazing - the bread is just SO tasty), the pita pocket or the bowl. If you're going for value for money, then the bowl is your way forward. You can fit a whole lot in that bowl, and if you don't finish it, you can take it home with you for round two. The restaurant itself is very spacious. There's lots of seating and there's even a community style table with beautiful Turkish lights hanging overhead. The white floor tiles contrast the dark wooden shiplapped wall, teamed with dark paint - it really puts the focus on the food and all the vibrant colors to choose from! Ambiance and vibe - 5 out of 5! Staff here are very friendly and full of suggestions. Now, if you don't pick up a mezze cookie when at the register b, where you will ALSO purchase a drink (the berry juice or the kale one are delicious!!!) then you are missing OUT! Glad to see a Mezeh in this part of VA, I'm pretty sure I'll be back many times. read more

Saturday April 6, 11:17am. Door locked, no one around. If you are not open during business hours that's a great way to lose business...

Literally the BEST place on EARF! Mezeh has been my favorite restaurant since the grand opening... The amazing staff, the vibrant colors in the food and decor and and the greatest taste Mezeh has grown immensely since the first days they've opened so coming between 12-4 expect a line- if they run out of any item they generally are amazing with accommodation and will make more if you're willing to wait!

I like Mezeh and there's not many places you can go lately and feel like you're still making healthy choices. My husband and I were slightly disappointed on our last visit. It was Sunday around 5 and the flavored juices had two flavors completely out. They said they were making more so we settled for a berry one. It wasn't great. When we finished our food, which was delicious, plentiful and fresh, we refilled with the green juice. It was watered down and had no flavor. This hasn't been a problem before so we'll still give it another try in the future. read more

Mezeh - A bowl with a little of everything - Mediterranean Near Me - Hampton, Virginia

I love this place. I remember the last time I grabbed some Mediterranean carry out from a Mezeh or similar spot on my way home from DC and being sad when it was all gone and I was back to having no similar options in the 757. That is the case no more! I've been visiting here since they opened, and I've never had a bad bowl. I always get a bowl. Sometimes with rice and greens, sometimes just greens. The pros: One bowl is always 2 meals. Or a meal and a snack. Always. The food is always fresh. Always. That goes for meat and veggies. The variety is wonderful. If you like tasting lots of small bites and many different flavors in concert and contrast like I do, this place is heaven. For vegetarians or those who eat a plant based diet with meat as a complement but not the focus, also heaven. The pure variety! The colors! Raw, grilled, and pickled. The time it would take to prepare all of these things at home. The fact that you get to request every. Single. Veggie. for the same. price. My favorite thing that I never get a bowl without: that. spicy. feta. I also always get the Turkish salad and tabbouleh as a veggie base. The spicy hummus is always good. I like the pickled beets but didn't get them this time. I got the picked carrots, roasted corn, and just about everything else. Mix of white and brown rice. Greens - just arugula this time (they also have spinach and a mix). The only thing I didn't like the flavor of was the roasted veggies. They had a weird, woodsy taste. I thought it was just the asparagus at first, but it was the squash also and the broccoli especially. But that's part of the joy of having so many flavors on a plate. The tasting is the joy. With small amounts of so many things not liking one is minor. So many dressings. I've tried them all. This may be the first time I got only one: the tzatziki pictured. They have a nice variety of protein choices. I seldom eat red meat and have never been able to get over the mental hurdle of trying lamb (those poor babies) but it looked so good I almost tried it. I've had the falafel here before but it's not a favorite. I went with the veggie kefta (they've been dry before but were awesome this time). Sadly, as much as I love the chickens I can't stop eating them for long. I had a mini crisis over which type to get - I settled for a sample of the shawarma (spicy) bc I like it and just wanted a taste, but got the kebab (mild) in my bowl bc it has veggies, including fat, juicy cherry tomatoes mixed in. If you do not like herbs, spices, plant based or heavy on the veggie food and/or are unaccustomed to a high fiber diet, this place may twist your tummy. Otherwise, I'll say it again: heaven. The pita bread is soft, perfect for dipping. Oh, and the baklava's pretty good too! read more
