A wide variety of dishes include zucchini cakes, spinach pie, grilled lamb chops, or the great leg of lamb. Mezes offers terrific, fresh seafood such as pan-seared prawns smothered with tomatoes and feta, or marinated, grilled Octopus served with olive oil, lemon and oregano. Let us help you select from a nice variety of Greek wines to pair with your plates.

Mezes is also available for catering and parties, and has a beautiful patio for daily dining or special occasions.

"...At Mezés you don't have to choose. Just gather a group of friends and try everything you like...More than the menu, however, is the festive feel of the place that comes as much from the friendly staff as the décor...But it's something more that comes from the staff, that unidentifiable extra warmth they exude, as though you're a welcome guest at their party..."

Mezes has been recognized several times by the San Francisco community as best new restaurant by the San Francisco Guardian, Best New Greek Restaurant & Tapas Restaurant by SF Weekly, and Best Mediterranean by CitySearch.
