    Went for the power lunch special. Food was delicious and with four courses I was full for the rest of the day. Definitely worth checking out. The inside is decorated nicely and the staff was so kind in letting my friend and I sit for almost four hours at the table. I will be coming back to check out the rest of the menu soon.

    Honey eggplant was good. Wish the all day menu had been available instead of just the brunch menu which was not the best.

    This is the second time I’ve eaten at Blue Mezze. The $59 Thanksgiving special was a great deal for my friend and me! The appetizers are delicious; red lentil soup, Greek salad, and babaganoush. The turkey was unconventional for Thanksgiving. It was sort of mixed in with rice, but very tasty. The dessert of cold baklava is also unconventional, but delish! The special also included a glass of wine or beer. The menu may not appeal to everyone for Thanksgiving, but if you’re willing to try something a little different, it’s great value for the money. Service is friendly and efficient.
