Fantastic service & delicious tapas!
We had a wonderful experience at Meson. The tapas were flavorful, fresh, & beautifully prepared-perfect for sharing. What really made the evening stand out, though, was the super service. The staff was incredibly welcoming, attentive, & made us feel right at home throughout the meal.

Highly recommend if you're looking for great food & a top-notch vibe. We will definitely be back!

I went to Meson with my cousin for a late night dinner, hence we easily found parking. What a discovery. This is now a top 3 in my list of great dining experiences. The ambiance, the service, & food impeccable. Our waiter was very nice & attentive to our questions. Even the waitress who brought the food over would explain each dish. Each dish was a delight. The wine was a good pick, white Faustino. I am definitely going back!! Bravo to Meson team!

I recently dined here with my daughter & niece, & it was an excellent experience. My daughter has multiple allergies, & the staff was incredibly attentive, taking extra care to avoid any cross-contamination. They even overheard that we were celebrating my niece's birthday & surprised us by adding a candle to her dessert without us even asking. The service, ambiance, & food were all fantastic. Highly recommend!

First time going & glad we went there. My friend had previously went for brunch & liked it. We decided to try 6 different tapas to share. Every plate was delicious. They were very accommodating with being gluten-free & dairy-free. My favorite was the octopus, the texture was perfect. We also had a wonderful attentive server. Thank you for the meal, the ambiance & the attention. Will have to go back & try more.
