Mezemiso, Rooftop Restaurant & Shisha Terrace

Yes, Mezemiso is often recommended for romantic evenings thanks to its rooftop views, live music and attentive staff. Many guests praise the atmospheric setting, violin, belly dancer and sunset views over the Thames, making it a strong choice for special occasions. Note that feedback on food and service is mixed, so book a good table (request a riverside spot) and allow extra time for service on busy nights to get the most from the experience.

Portions are reported as mixed, several guests felt dishes were small for the price, while others described starters and mains as satisfying. Expect restaurant-style portions typical of a rooftop, with some guests calling plates pricey for their size. If you’re sharing meze or dining as a group, consider ordering several small plates or a set menu to feel more comfortable with value.

Early evening around sunset or special-event nights are ideal, guests frequently praise the sunset and riverside views, live violin and themed entertainment which enhance romance. Weekends and event nights (NYE, Valentine’s) deliver the liveliest atmosphere. If you prefer a quieter meal, choose a midweek evening or an earlier seating and mention you want a calm table when booking.

Lively, romantic and entertainment-driven, guests often highlight a warm, energetic vibe with live violin, belly dancer, drummers and a DJ. Many reviews praise friendly staff, cocktails and the stunning Thames view, creating a memorable night out. Expect a mix of intimate, romantic tables and louder party-style nights; the atmosphere can vary by evening and seating location.

Smart casual is the recommended dress code. The restaurant lists “Smart Casual” and the venue’s rooftop setting and evening entertainment tend to attract guests dressed for a stylish night out, think neat, comfortable evening wear rather than casual daytime clothes.

The team appears willing to help create celebrations, so call ahead or note requests in your booking to arrange decorations, seating preferences or private-party needs.

Families do dine here and many guests celebrate birthdays with children and teens, so the venue can be family-friendly for special occasions. The focus is on evening dining, cocktails and shisha, and there’s no menu info indicating a children’s menu, so for younger kids consider an early seating or booking a private area and call ahead to check menu flexibility.

Busiest: weekends and special-event nights (NYE, Valentine’s) and evenings with live entertainment; guests report lively crowds, DJs and packed nights. Quietest: midweek evenings or earlier seatings tend to be calmer. If you prefer less noise, opt for a weekday booking or an early table and mention you’d like a quieter spot.

Friday or Saturday are best if you want a lively party atmosphere with a DJ and entertainment; choose midweek if you prefer a quieter, more intimate dinner. For the best views and a romantic vibe, consider a sunset booking any evening, many guests praised sunset dinners and evening entertainment.

Because holiday hours and special events (NYE, Valentine’s) can change service patterns and pricing, call ahead to confirm holiday opening and any special menus or minimum spends.
