    Haley was awesome! Very warm and friendly. She ensured me that my food allergies were acknowledged and executed by the Chef without concern. The manager was very attentive in providing 100% confidence that my dinner had no cross contamination. We dined for my birthday dinner and I was very impressed at the attention to detail paired with the very friendly above and beyond service. The staff went out of their way to thank us upon departure for dining with them. We will certainly be back! Thank you for a beautiful dining experience

    Mesh has a lovely and lively atmosphere (in the bar area) and the wait staff is very good. However, the food is just ok. My dining partner ordered the special which included a 4 oz. filet of beef and 2 grilled shrimp. He ate maybe half the steak and said it was "just ok". I ordered the Beet Salad and Roasted Carrots. The salad was good but had way too much dressing on it and the carrots were undercooked. Our server (Hannah) was fantastic. The food--just ok.
