Disappointing New Year's Eve experience at Mezemiso! We were really looking forward to our New Year's Eve at Mezemiso in London, but unfortunately we were disappointed. Although we had reserved a table inside, due to lack of space we were seated outside on the terrace, which was uncomfortable in the cold and windy temperatures. To our surprise, we had to “buy” two shishas or cigars worth £50-60 per couple, even if we are not smokers - we would still be charged for this cost, which was not communicated in advance! In addition, we were surprised by the amount of the tip - 12.7% of the total bill, which seemed unreasonably high to us. The food was also disappointing. For a price of £95 per plate we expected far more. In our hometown of Mannheim we get significantly better and tastier dishes for the same price. We only liked the starters and the künefe at the end. The waiters were very friendly and accommodating, but unfortunately even the excellent service could not compensate for the excessive prices and disappointing food. In total we paid around €750 for two couples and would have been better off spending the money elsewhere. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend this restaurant and will certainly not come back.

So the 5 star review is solely for Laaibah & the manager who welcomed us in. Laaibah's service was amazing, she was attentive & no ask was too much. Polite, friendly, professional. The ribs which we ordered amongst other food, were delicious. Unfortunately, I've dropped a star for some of the other male staff who asked how the shisha was, but when we said it was pulling too much air.. he seemed disinterested. We asked that the heater on the terrace needs turning up... he said move seats..there wasn't any proactivenese to make our experience better. Shame, as this place has potential for a 5 star rating.

I visited Mezemiso recently to celebrate my anniversary, and unfortunately, the experience fell short of expectations. DJ was good and the rest. Although we were welcomed upon arrival, we were seated in a corner next to a loud DJ, despite mentioning it was a special occasion. Many better tables at the back with nicer views were empty, yet we were given one of the least desirable spots. To add to this, I noticed a cloakroom when the DJ opened a closet, revealing coats hanging inside, but this service wasn’t offered to us. Instead, we had to hang our coats on the backs of our chairs, which felt inappropriate for a restaurant of this standard. When the food arrived, my steak was well-prepared—juicy and flavorful—but my partner’s lamb cutlets were dry and tough to eat. Unfortunately, the experience was further disrupted by a staff member—a short man with a small beard—who kept rushing us and interrupting our conversation. He repeatedly asked, “Are you done?” even though it was clear we were still enjoying our time. This kind of service felt intrusive and disrespectful, especially on a special occasion. I was also surprised to find that bread and hummus, which are complimentary at most similar restaurants, were charged on the bill. To top it off, an £18 service charge was added despite the subpar service. For the high price point, the overall experience didn’t feel worth it. While the steak was enjoyable, the lack of attention to detail, poor service, and failure to accommodate a special occasion left me disappointed. I hope the restaurant considers these points and improves its service to match its price and reputation.

Amazing food and vibes, with a bar that offers alcohol-free options—mocktails are fantastic! What keeps bringing us back, though, is Sofia. From our first night at Mez when she was DJing, she’s been nothing but hospitable. She played great music, wished us well when we left, and ever since, we always come back to see her, especially for birthdays. She even asks if we have any song requests and treats us more like family than just visitors. Defo wouldn't have come back as many times if it wasn't for Sofia. 🙌👏

If you want to feel like you’re having dinner at a night club, by all means come to this place. Came here expecting a nice, pleasant dinner but instead, music was blasted loudly throughout the entire dinner to the point where we had to shout in order to converse during the meal. Absolutely horrible. Requested them to turn down the music but nothing changed. Food was sub-par the best . Lamb was dry. Would not recommend anyone to come here for dinner if you’re expecting a pleasant time.👎🏻

Overall a good experience. Service was excellent. Location is very good with a nice view of the river, And good view of landmarks from some of the seating (not all). They have a live DJ, Unfortunately I'm not a fan of loud music whilst eating, but that's a personal preference. So just an FYI. The food was very good but was not 5 star good IMO. Espeacially for the price of about £60pp for food only. It's well presented, but all a bit safe. The flavours were all a bit subdued and didn' taste LIKE traditional lebanese, more like mix of western and lebanese.

I had an extremely disappointing experience at this restaurant, which I had booked for my special guest who came from far away. Upon arrival, I found out that Shisha was not served in the main dining area where food was served. Instead, we were sent to a small, cramped room with only four tables, which lacked any sort of atmosphere. We were seated on the rooftop, and the conditions were unbearable. The winds were so strong that it was impossible to sit comfortably, and there was insufficient heating. When I mentioned that it was too cold to stay, the staff offered me a blanket, which is completely unacceptable for what is supposed to be a relaxing and high-quality dining experience. This lack of preparation and communication was infuriating. If the conditions were unsuitable for guests, I should have been informed in advance. I ended up canceling the table because it was impossible to enjoy the evening, yet I was still charged £100. Not only was this a complete waste of time and money, but I also felt humiliated in front of my guest. I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a comfortable or professional experience. This was a complete letdown, and I will not be returning.

Great Night! We booked out half the restaurant for our Xmas party and the team were able to answer all of our questions in a timely manner. On the night of our event the team pulled out all of the stops to make sure our party of 30 were catered to adequately. The cocktails were 10/10 and the bar staff were unstoppable. The resident DJ (Sofia Bellerby) was superb and played all genres of music to keep my party entertained. She also did impromptu photography for our group as well - Something I forgot to book myself so was amazing! (The pictures were fantastic…!!!!!) Lastly the food was impeccable and the team did an amazing job. Will definitely be back soon!

Rooftop dining above the Thames. Quality of the food was absolutely amazing, made from the best of meats. Service was very good by all staff we crossed path with. Exceptional welcome by host Moha or Mona [sorry I'm not good with remembering names lol] and Ramona. Good entertainment- Live DJ and other. Would I return again? It's a yes from me. They have a minimum spend of £60 per person and their service charge which is automarically added to your bill is apparently mandatory and you must pay which I found a bit odd.

Not worth it. Paid 155 pounds for 2x shisha + 5 drinks & we were forced to leave after 40 minutes. The shisha taste was very bad & very rude service. Needless to waste your money there, I can't recommend it.

Mezemiso Rooftop Restaurant: A Dining Experience Above the Thames Perched atop the Hyatt Regency London Albert Embankment, Mezemiso Rooftop Restaurant offers more than just exquisite cuisine—it’s a feast for all the senses. With panoramic views of the River Thames and the iconic Houses of Parliament, a visit here is an escape into luxury. Add a lively ambience with a belly dancer and a DJ spinning infectious beats, and you have the perfect recipe for a memorable evening. Starters: A Taste of the Levant We began with three enticing starters. The Hummus Shawarma was a silky smooth delight, topped with tender lamb shawarma, and accompanied by gherkin, onion, and parsley—a true Middle Eastern classic elevated. The Spicy Lebanese Sausages were pan-fried to perfection, delivering a satisfying kick of heat. The Chicken Wings, marinated and grilled, paired beautifully with the harissa yoghurt, striking a balance of smoky, spicy, and creamy flavours. Mains: Flavours That Transport You The Mixed Grill stole the show with its perfectly cooked skewers of lamb kofta, marinated chicken shish, and tender lamb cubes. Grilled chilli peppers and tomatoes added a smoky depth, rounding out this irresistible platter. The star of the night, however, was the Chicken Kabsa. This must-try dish featured marinated chicken embedded in spiced rice, topped with onions, crushed almonds, mixed peppers, and parsley. A side of chilli tomato sauce brought just the right amount of tang and heat. Every bite was an explosion of flavours, and it’s easy to see why this dish is a crowd favourite. To complement the meal, Hamdy, our gracious host, crafted refreshing and delicious mocktails that added a refreshing touch to our night. Desserts: A Sweet Finale Dessert was a showcase of Middle Eastern indulgence. The Mezemiso Baklava paired flaky, nutty sweetness with the tropical coolness of mango ice cream, creating a delightful fusion of textures and flavours. The Knafaa, with its sweet cheese filling, golden filo pastry, and drizzle of sugar blossom syrup, garnished with crushed pistachios, was a rich and satisfying end to our meal. Why Mezemiso? Whether you’re planning a romantic evening or a lively night out with friends, Mezemiso delivers on all fronts. The stunning views, exceptional service by Hamdy and his team, and vibrant atmosphere make it a destination worth revisiting. For an unforgettable dining experience blending authentic Middle Eastern flavours, breathtaking views, and electrifying entertainment, look no further than Mezemiso Rooftop Restaurant.

I would like to extend a special shout out to the following staff: Moha, Khalid, and Besil. The staff were super attentive, inviting, friendly, and prompt with services! They went above and beyond to service my cousin and I. Thank you, Moha, for seating us in a lovely and scenic area with your comforting smile and charisma. Khalid and Besil, you two are phenomenal employees of this lovely establishment. Thank you for suggesting an amazing meal and providing us with a great hookah (blue mist mix with lady killer). We selected the prefixed menu that came with the following assorted appetizers: sausage, spicy potatoes, hummus, and spinach/meat/cheese empanada. For entree, we had the black cod fish and chicken kabasa. For dessert, I can't even recall because we were so stuff that we forgot to take it home with us. The decor of the restaurant was very chic, comforting, and well lit. The hookah area where we had our 5 star hookah was a little chilly due to the current climate. However, Khalid and Besil provided us with a warm throw blanket to keep us warm, even with the heater being on in the area. That was truly a sweet accommodation. Overall, the food was well seasoned, delicious, and very fulfilling. We were extremely stuff. Thank you for an amazing experience! We will return!

THE PRICE IS NOT WORTH IT!! everything was TASTELESS! How can you say “mixed grill” and all you get is a meddy lamb, chicken and kofta enough for a child. The Shisha was not Savvaco!! I always get Savvaco so it most definitely is NOT genuine, the server tried to get us to get 2 £70 Shishas the cheeky git, couldn’t even explain what “ice rocks” was and was trying to be rude even though he was the one that couldn’t explain it in English and said we can’t mix flavours?! I have never in my life heard that before. Clearly these people are money hungry and are dying to get you to spend as much as you can. Please read the bad reviews they’re all the same for a reason and they respond to them with the same message because they can’t be bothered to change. I don’t care that you have a nice view the food matters so does the Shisha eps if you’re changing Mayfair prices it’s actually laughable. Also why was the music volume on a 100 on a Sunday?! I can’t even hear my friend next to me it’s ridiculous. Don’t respond with the same message I don’t want to hear it this place is a joke

As we walked in the receptionist and manager was very polite, and the restaurant was clean and nice looking. The allocated server was extremely rude and his uniform was hanging off and it felt more like we was at a self service kiosk. The food was bland and barely existent, I’ve genuinely had dog toys with more flavour in it. The night got worse once the illustrious shisha arrived. It was bent(leaning to one side) and non of the things we wanted were available E.g icepipe, and about 80% of the Savacco flavours. Once it came it most definitely did not taste like Savacco, maybe it was a new limited edition coal flavour. In fact the couple behind us also complained about the same issue. I think for the price this should have been a crime. Also the windows looked like they were cleaned with a wet doormat.

I would have given a 3* but when I asked to remove the service charge, they said it’s not optional. The starters were nice. The mixed grill was terrible. Shisha was good at the start but didn’t last long and they have a time limit on the table. Place is very expensive. £260 for 2 of us for food and shisha without any alcohol. Wouldn’t mind the price but the experience doesn’t match the price. Also if you are coming for the view, come when it’s daylight as at night time, you can’t see much so it’s a bit pointless

A very disappointing and disgraceful experience. The staff were rude, and the service was appalling. The portion sizes are nowhere near worth the prices they charge. Completely cheeky with the pricing. There was clear discrimination, and the staff showed no respect whatsoever. This restaurant is grossly overrated, and the list of issues could go on. We pay to receive quality that reflects the price, but in this restaurant, it’s quite the opposite. I wouldn’t recommend it at all, even if offered the chance to dine there for free. I’ve given it one star only because there’s no option for zero or negative stars.

It’s a place designed for very rich Arabs who are busy with their mobiles so are not bothered and don’t enjoy the experience. Not to talk about their attitude for women drinking or smoking especially if Arabs. We chose some set menus and other mains and they rudely brought the order short for the set menu meals! The food was below average and I’m saying this as an Arab and as very experienced in fine dining. Highly not recommended.

the restaurant itself looked nice and the food was decent but not worth the price we paid. however, the service was extremely disappointing. we came for my birthday and they ruined the experience for me. we came in and they asked if we want to sit in the lounge or outside and we said outside not knowing that we would have to pay for shisha. we then sat on the outdoor lounge and a staff member kept asking what shisha we wanted and at first we said we are deciding whether we want it or not but then when he came and asked the last time we said we have changed our mind. He then said we have to pay for it because we booked the shisha lounge in advance eventhough nothing was stated when we pre-booked. my friend then went over to the manager to ask to change tables to inside so we don’t have to pay for shisha but they said this is not an option even though the place was empty. this means that we were forced into paying £48 for shisha, which was also the cheapest one, but we did not want to pay for this. if we chose not to pay it even though we wouldn’t have received the shisha we were told that we would have to pay a fee. this caused a lot of stress on my birthday and i don’t see how they couldn’t have just changed our table.

I’m so glad I decided to book this place. Based on the views alone I made a reservation for my friend’s birthday dinner. An intimate meal for 2 on a Monday was just what the doctor ordered. First of all, the greeting? Beautiful. The hostesses were so friendly, so welcoming and accommodating. They took like a thousand pictures of us and really hyped up our night. The table had a little birthday card and rose petals (faux) and we got a corner table with a view as per our request. The VIEWS!!! Absolutely gorgeous. The river, the lights, it was magical. I would definitely recommend taking someone here on a date, quite romantic. Pictures are hard to take with the full view at night because of the light of the restaurant and bar reflections so be warned - you may have to get crazy with the angles. The cocktails I ordered were superb, the pornstar martini was smooth, rich, and perfectly balanced. They didn’t have it on the menu but I asked for a Bloody Mary which they made and they had the courtesy to ASK how spicy I wanted it. And it was delish. We got some basic starters like the chicken wings and tempura but the sauces? 🔥 Really gorgeous and flavourful. For the main, I ordered the lamb kabsa. It was very tender lamb and the rice was beautiful. The spice was a little lacking and it tasted a bit bland but generally good. My friend enjoyed the lamb chops. We were full at this point and had to take some of the food home, we didn’t get a chance to try their desserts. I am definitely coming back again so will try them then!! Thank you Mezemiso, for the lovely service and ambiance.

In this place, despite the high price, none of the staff knows how to respect you, they treat you rudely and use swear words to communicate with you, while we had a family reservation, but one of the staff told us He said that you don't have a reservation and I won't let you in, while the manager of the restaurant called and announced that they have a reservation, but this rude staff disrespected his manager and told us that I won't let you in, I even had a reservation confirmation email, but This staff disrespectfully refused to let us in. I think that this staff had a problem with us because he understood that we are from the Middle East. After that, when the reception management spoke and announced that we have a reservation, we were directed to the restaurant, but the same personnel prevented us from entering. In addition, in a restaurant of this level, the name of the personnel should be written on their chest, but unfortunately, there is no one in this restaurant. His name was not known

Great spot for late-night drinks! This bar stays open later than any other in the area, making it perfect for those looking to extend their night. While the prices aren’t cheap, the drinks are well-made and worth it. There's also a balcony for smokers, which is a nice touch. The staff are friendly and attentive, adding to the overall positive experience.

Went for a joint family birthday on a busy Saturday night. Food: Set menu was opted for. Starters [Mezze] were actually overall better than the mains. Dessert baklava was also remarkably good. Drinks were ok: Well prepared and presented, but the bartenders were using single shots or free-pouring short on the cocktails. Service: 5* for sure. Waiters were attentive and added to the good vibe of the evening. Bartenders were moving quickly and considering how much demand was on the BOH, everything came out in a reasonable time frame. Atmosphere: Standout part of the evening. Special shout out to the DJ. She was fantastic throughout the whole evening and laid the basis for the live drummer and belly dancer to really shine and put on an amazing show. Compliments to management for selecting an amazing set of entertainers who work well with the permanent FOH staff to put the guests in the best mood and take this way beyond a typical dinner experience. If there is a main reason to return to Mezemiso it would be the spectacle they put on in the evenings.

A colleague and I visited this restaurant spontaneously and did not enjoy it. We were welcomed by a young lady at reception which mentioned that they do have a dress code of smart shoes and not trainers. Very understandable. We then asked to sit in the outdoor area and was told “you have to have a shisha” more than happy to get a shisha and then she says “you have to pay for it” as if we were expecting it for free. Then comes the food. We waited nearly 1 hour for the starters to come out. The starters came out cold, as they were cold throughout and to the touch, and said to the young man Khaled serving us that it was cold which he resolved the problem promptly. The main course was average and not worth the money. (I must say the short ribs were exquisite which we had alongside 2 mix grills between the pair of us.) We came to pay the bill. Our bill came to £269 including a £30 (optional) service charge which we opted not to pay due to the reasons I have mentioned above and that seemed to be a problem. Anyways, will not be be returning.

Maybe the worst food I’ve ever had while traveling. It was inedible. The only thing that wasn’t disgusting was the fries. The chicken skewers with BBQ sauce and cherries should never see the light of day. This is a tourist trap to the nth degree and only exists because of its location. I would urge anyone to never eat here. Truly terrible food.

The location is the strong point of this hotel. We are staying there as a family and the room is a disaster… a horrible musty smell. I asked to clean the mold that was on the pseudo window (should I say the skylight!) of the room. My daughter has asthma, it’s very complicated. Everything smells musty, I am very disappointed with this hotel. We stayed there a few years ago, it no longer has anything to do with what we experienced.

A very nice surprise! It was the first time as an 18 year old that I went to a hostel. The atmosphere of the bar is very friendly and the rooms and bathrooms very clean. The hotel is ideally located 10 minutes walk from Big Ben, a treat! I highly recommend

Been coming here a few years, and the best of all the Spoons I can walk to. Drinks, food, amenities, customers and staff are all of what you'd expect from Spoons. And a little more. Took me a few years to discover a very nice garden at the very back. Spoons at its finest

It's hit or miss with this place depending on their mood, it's too expensive for what you get, although the food quality can be very good on occasions, however marketing tackticks are now being used on unaware customers, like over friendly service one day and extra size portions, and then the next visit small portions rude service like wispering to colleague in romanian.
