Kalamata Meze Bar

It’s clear that this place is newly opened — the environment is clean and everything feels fresh. They offer a wide variety of dishes, and most of what we tried was quite good. We especially recommend the hummus; it pairs well with the freshly baked bread, which was delicious.

However, there were a few disappointments. The butter shrimp had an overpowering flavor that the butter and cheese couldn’t balance, resulting in a clashing taste. The beef dumplings also fell short — they had a strong, watery flavor from being boiled, which detracted from the overall experience. We wouldn’t recommend these two dishes.

Some of the kebab options were on the salty side, but pairing them with rice helped balance the flavors nicely. We didn’t try any of the alcoholic drinks, but there is a bar with a selection of beverages available.

I feel compelled to post since all of the reviews are five star. Beautiful establishment, lovely server, bravo but the food..I’ve been eating Mediterranean food for 40yrs and this is not it. I want to note also that our server although lovely did not show us the lunch menu that had a significant price difference and allowed you to make multiple choices and save. All of the choices may I add we ordered. We spent $140 when could have spent half of that. The food, the flat bread, olive oil & hummus, chefs kiss. Nothing else did the trick. The chicken was dry, the falafel confused me for a hockey puck. The Greek salad was good but the artichoke hearts and eggplant were a disappointment. I’d say go for the ambience and a drink and some hummus but personally I will not be dining here again. I fell for the five star reviews which is why it’s rather important that I post this.

Cocktail selection is good. Turkish food mainly. They serve halal meat. Adana kebob is decent. Fish and sea food not that great. Belly dancer is good at dancing.
