    We were here last summer, ordered a mix of mostly cold mezze and were impressed. We came back for a special occasion and it felt like a different place. The food wasn't bad but everything was either fried or soaking in oil. The amount of oil from all dishes got to an overwhelming level. If the drink service wasn't as slow, another glass of wine would have helped, but I didn't want it to come after I'm done eating. So either order wine by the bottle or forget it. Very disappointed.

    Super cool spot and the interior ambiance is amazing. Our server was very attentive. We will try it again, but I will not order the same meal again (sesame-encrusted tuna was a miss -- waaaay too many seeds). My cocktail was delicious, tho! Thanks Blue Mezze.

    Very nice restaurant with an interesting menu. We went for the jazz brunch, which was very pleasant. The music was good (jazz standards) and the volume was just right. Great selection of food options— classic brunch fare with a Turkish twist.
