"Located in the Triangle, MezzeMe’s fast-casual format doesn’t skimp on flavor. Build a Mediterranean plate with beef and lamb doner, falafel, shrimp, or veggie skewers, then round it out with rice, roasted vegetables, and fresh salads. The sleek interior and outdoor tables make it easy to drop in for a quick lunch or dinner. Takeout orders can be placed online." - Darcie Duttweiler
"Located in the Triangle, this fast-casual Turkish kitchen is the perfect lunch or casual dinner spot, offering easy meals like wraps, salads, soups, rice bowls, and tons of other mezzes. The traditional iskender — a sliced beef and lamb doner kebab with yogurt served on a bed of warm homemade pita bread and tomato sauce — is a star on the menu. Stay to dine in its dining room or on the nice patio, with a view of its fountain. If in a rush, diners can always order to-go or place their orders online." - Erin Russell
"For fast-casual Turkish: MezzeMe might be one of the best casual grain-bowl restaurants in Austin. The beef and lamb doner entree comes with thinly shaved juicy bits of meat, plus accompanying grains, tart pickled vegetables, densely thick pita, and very spicy harissa. To round out the meal, the grape leaf dolmas are sturdy and the small pistachio baklava packs a lot of balanced sweetness. While the restaurant is open for dine-in service, takeout and delivery orders can be placed online." - Erin Russell
