    Mesero Inwood Village is steadily busy but the staff are as welcoming during the busiest times and the less busy times. The food is consistently delicious and presented well. The waitstaff is friendly, attentive and helpful. We love the reliability of timing if we have a reservation and are happy to find a seat to dine at the bar if we are last minute. We feel like we are walking into someone's home as they are always glad to welcome us.

    Great food. We went after the lunch rush on a Saturday. Service was good and the place had a great atmosphere. Would think it’s a really nice spot in the summer when they open the big door to the outdoor seating area. Highly recommend.

    Food was great, as always. Enjoyed the exciting atmosphere. Our server was nice, but had issues with getting drink orders correctly on a couple of occasions. Still a go-to destination for an enjoyable night out.

    Great service and food as always. Had a girls lunch date scheduled for 12:15pm. We had some food and drinks and were taking our time, enjoying our lunch. The manager found his way to our table, started cleaning and reaching over and around us, saying nothing. We assumed they were ready for us to leave but it make things super uncomfortable for us all. We asked if they were ready for us to leave and they didn’t acknowledge us and continued cleaning over and around us. Hated this part.
