Meso Modern Mediterranean - Mediterranean restaurant in San Jose - 3060 Olsen Dr Ste 50, USA

The food wasn't bad, everything we tried was delicious but is it somewhere I'd crave or want to come back for multiple occasion? Probably not. Everything we ate though was absolutely delicious & cooked to perfection, not a single flaw. The atmosphere was nice, elegant & elevated but not very familiar or homey. 10/10 recommend for service and cuisine.

I've always enjoyed Mediterranean food, and this place doesn't disappoint. The flavors in their dishes are just right—a mix that hits the spot. It's the kind of food you can enjoy with friends, making it a good spot to hang out. The ingredients they use make it a solid choice for a tasty and laid-back meal. I really liked the baklava cigars but forgot to take a picture of them.

The food here was great. Good place to hangout with friends. They had limited Vegetarian options, but all of those were amazing. We tried their Trio Dip, harissa potatoes, Vegan Gnocchi, turmeric cauliflower. Definitely recommend trying their Potatoes !

I went here with a small group of friends to celebrate a birthday and had a pleasant experience. I enjoyed the options of still of sparkling Evian water. The atmosphere and decor is attractive and feels simplistic and clean. The food was deliciously fantastic. We shared several small plates and had a couple cocktails each. Our waiter was kind and we had decent service. The restaurant provided a cardamom tart for our birthday girl which we appreciated. Overall we had a lovely time. We hope to visit again soon with the same good service.

Great atmosphere and good service. Food was a hot or miss. To start, my cocktail (Toddy) was great! Next, the roasted cauliflower was pretty good. Then, we got the lamb shank, which was okay but not great. The lamb could have been seasoned a bit more. The couscous that came with the lamb was really good, though.

The food at Meso was great! By far I had the best sea bass ever. We had the Trio of Dips with fresh bread and pita chips. Hubby ate the lamb shank that was excellent. I recommend you make reservations, we got very lucky walking in, but it was packed when we left.

This is a very popular and bustling restaurant right at the heart of Santana Row mall. The menu has a good selection of vegetarian and vegan dishes which are clearly marked. The staff is very knowledgeable and helpful in explaining and recommending dishes. I have had the falafel bites, hummus trio, artichoke flatbread and the vegan gnocchi. I really liked the hummus trio and the flatbread. Recently I also tried the warm marinated Feta and the crispy polenta and also the gypsy rillenos. I really liked the Feta and fried polenta. The Seasoning on the feta was lovely. The polenta was crispy and soft inside. The chilli rillenos were really tasty, but the portion size was really small for a Main plate and the cost was high considering the portion size as well. Other than that the food was lovely and the ambience is great especially from the live music around the mall.

4 stars because food and drinks were good but service wasn't the greatest. Came here for a birthday dinner, not realizing they closed at 9pm (reservation was at 8:15). We only came to know after we ordered our drinks. We were taking our time and thought we would start with drinks and an appetizer and move on to the meal. But our server told us 15 minutes after arriving that the kitchen would be closing soon and we needed to place our orders. The whole experience felt a bit rushed. So we ordered our food and appetizers all at once. Another thing... I understand wanting to clear the tables but literally after we were done with our last bite, they were there to collect the plates. They even collected my drink when I wasn't finished with it. I went to reach for it and it was gone! The artichoke flatbread was good, the side of potatoes was good also but we couldn't finish the portion so took leftovers. I ordered the lamb shank and it was flavorful and tender. The passion fruit margarita was also refreshing....wish I could've finished it though.....The ambience is nice and has nice decor inside.
