We visited Mezemiso for the first time to celebrate my husband’s birthday, and from beginning to end, we truly enjoyed the experience.It was a wonderful evening—the staff were amazing, attentive, kind, and very friendly.The food was delicious, and the cocktails were the best I’ve had in my 11 years living in London.The ambiance was fantastic, and the belly dancer, musician, and DJ were outstanding.On top of that, they made my husband’s birthday extra special by surprising us with a “Happy Birthday” song, involving all the staff and music.It was an incredibly memorable experience, and we both left very happy.
