The food in Meze is to die for - we have been a few times now and the standard is always very high. They also make the transition perfectly from restaurant to wine bar with a DJ at the weekend. It is in a great spec too right in the heart of chester near the cross.

Meze is a fantastic place - the decor is a bit different from other restaurants in Chester with authentic string curtains sectioning off areas of the drinks lounge to create private booths. They have great cocktails too.

We booked late so could only get an early table-7pm. Although empty on arrival, the tables were still being set and service not forthcoming. There was no music until 8pm. Only after a waitress was prompted was our order taken, some 15 minutes after arriving. The starters arrived before the wine, the coffees before the desserts. If it wasn't for one exceptional waitress I'd have said the service was an absolute disgrace. The food was good although not that authentic. I wouldn't bother, Chester has better to offer just book in advance if a weekend.

We have been twice now for lunch on a Saturday. The foods was so good the first time we just had to go back and we weren't disappointed. Although busy, the food and service was excellent.
