Mezze Mediterranean Grill | Our Story
Where heritage meets the grill
Mezze was built on a simple belief: fresh, handpicked ingredients and time-honored recipes bring people together. Every dish carries that intention — from the first fire of the grill to the last sip of Turkish coffee.
The kitchen
Patience and passion transform fresh, locally sourced produce into soulful meals. The recipes we cook from have been passed down through generations.

The menu
Turkish-style kebabs, shawarma wraps, wild-caught salmon, sweet potato falafel, and hand-crafted fattoush — each dish a different corner of the Mediterranean. Finish with Turkish coffee and a square of baklava.
Rooted in Bronzeville
We opened on 47th Street because Bronzeville deserves a place to gather over food that means something. This neighborhood's history of culture and community is part of everything we do.
The welcome
Mezze is owner-operated, and guests feel it the moment they walk through the door. Eater Chicago noticed our debut — but a familiar face returning for the next meal is the recognition that matters most.
