MEZZA EXPRESS - (Near Surrey, South East)

5 /5 Ted M: Excellent Lebanese food. The chicken shawarma with rice was fresh, tasty and served with a smile. The tabouly was served fresh with sprinkles of pomegranate! The bread warm with the two sauces. No problem requesting more sauces. Heaters available and rain protection available. Great pastries as well and juices.

5 /5 Michelle: Excellent customer service!! Having had a very good first time meal a few months ago, a recent takeaway was disappointing. We were offered a complimentary meal to compensate, & took that up a couple of weeks later. We had farrouj meshwi (boneless baby chicken), hoummos, fattoush, & falafel. The chicken was succulent & tasty, & the falafels crisp & fresh. The hoummos & fattoush were both excellent accompaniments, & again, very fresh. It was an excellent meal, delicious & tasty. Mohamad is very friendly & takes pride in his food. Highly recommended!

5 /5 Bibash Nepal: I had a wonderful experience at this restaurant. The food was absolutely great and fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The staff were equally impressive, especially Yusuf and Sirjan, who were extremely polite and had such a warm and welcoming attitude. Their hospitality really made our visit special. The location is perfect, and I especially loved the tables setup for dinner. It creates a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere for dining. Highly recommended — I will definitely be coming back!

5 /5 Grateful “Totally Grateful”: From the outside, you’ll notice the charming covered gazebo where shisha smokers gather under heaters and fans—but don’t let that modest exterior fool you. Mezza Labanese is pure magic waiting to unfold. Step inside and you’re instantly embraced by something special: a space that feels both intimate and alive, buzzing with that rare energy that only comes from a place that truly cares. The team here doesn’t just serve you; they welcome you like family. There’s a genuineness in their smiles that makes you instantly relax and think, “Yes, this is exactly where I want to be.” And then the food arrives—oh my word, the food. Each plate is a masterpiece, vibrant and thoughtfully presented, almost too beautiful to disturb. The flavors come in waves: rich, bright, perfectly balanced. The cold starters were silky and creamy, with jewel-like pomegranate seeds that burst with sweet-tart joy—pure poetry on a plate. The portions were generous, ideal for sharing, yet so good that part of you wants to keep every bite for yourself. I’ve dined my way through Surrey (and beyond), and nothing comes close to what they’re doing here. As a vegetarian, I usually “make do” with options, but here I felt spoiled—dishes so thoughtfully crafted I never once felt like I was missing out. Dessert was the perfect finale: delicate, ethereal, kissed with orange blossom water. Each spoonful was a sigh of contentment, as beautiful to look at as it was to taste. The traditional Lebanese tea was like a warm hug in a glass, fragrant with mint and soothing to the soul. Around us, guests laughed over shisha, filling the air with a relaxed, social vibe, while soft Arabic melodies transported us straight to the heart of Lebanon. And perhaps what impressed me most was the way the staff cared without ever intruding. They checked in just enough to make sure everything was perfect, but never once made us feel rushed. We lingered long after dessert with our tea, and it felt like we were guests in someone’s home rather than customers in a restaurant. Generous portions that don’t break the bank, flavors that linger in your memory, and service that makes you feel like you matter—this isn’t just food, it’s an escape. Mezza Labanese isn’t only the best Lebanese food in Surrey; it’s become my happy place. Mark my words: you’ll leave planning your return visit before you’ve even finished your meal. This little gem has completely won me over.
