Answer: Even though everyone raves about this place, I was not that impressed. The decor was beautiful, it sits next to the Bellagio fountains, so every ten minutes or so you were able to see the fountain show. The staff was semi-friendly. Our waitress seemed a little taken back by some of the questions we had. I'm sorry, if I don't know what something is, I am going to ask, not just order and hope for the best. When it comes to food, we started off with the legendary bread and olive spreads. Both were delicious! I couldn't decide what I liked better, the chocolate rolls or the different oil spreads. Um! We then moved on to appetizers. My tuna carpaccio was very good. The tuna tasted fresh and the glaze that was on top had a sweet soy glaze to it (it was special that night). As far as the main meal is concerned I was deeply disappointed. I had the salmon tri which was basically, three salmons (duh) one seared salmon filet, one salmon tabouli, and one salmon cake. The only one that I liked was the seared salmon. Everything else had a strange after taste to it; so strange that I had one bite and put it aside. I didn't eat the meal. When my semi-friendly waitress noticed that I didn't eat my meal, she inquired why. I explained that I didn't like it and she offered me a dessert instead. No, she didn't ask me if I would like something else, no she didn't offer to take it off the bill or even half of it off the bill, she asked me if I wanted dessert. I couldn't have dessert that day (stupid diet I'm on) so I told her no thank you. I then thought, maybe she would take it off the bill at the end. Nope. I just spent $36 on a salmon tri that I took 3 or 4 bites of and then threw away. What a waste of money!!

Answer: When I worked Uptown we'd frequent Mez for cocktails after work occasionally. We'd have some apps but never a full meal. I've also been here on a Saturday night and watched an older man and woman having some sort of sexual encounter while leaning against the bar behind us (have pics to prove it). When they finished, he left and she took a nap on the bar!! Tried to stop in last week with out of town guests for a drink but as we walked in the doors, 4 security guys came right up to us and questioned whether we were there for a movie or the lounge. I said the lounge and was then told they have a business casual dress code. He said this while staring directly at my Dutch friend in khaki shorts, polo shirt and birkenstocks. No problem we said and left. We hung around for Alive after 5 and when we walked by Mez I could see it was empty in there, and many employees were just standing around staring through the glass at what was going on outside. I understand a dress code where baggy pants, sneakers, hats and that kind of gear isn't allowed. But since when in Charlotte was preppy not acceptable? I mean a woman can get pleasured and fall asleep on the bar but my friend can't wear sandals?? Seems a bit ridiculous to me!!

Answer:
As far as fast food goes, it really doesn't get better than this place. Really great selection of freshly made food. Burgers are the most touted items, but I think they're ok. You get the fast food thinner patty, restaurant quality toppings, but I always find that the burgers are too substantial for the bun. They have a drive-thru, but be prepared to wait a little for your food. If you decide to eat there, they'll bring your food to you and clean your plates too. It's a nice touch, but if you're like me and feel like you need to leave a tip when people clean up after you, bring a couple bucks to leave on the table. I felt super guilty the first time I ate there and had no cash for them. I really like the different options they have. You can get a burger, chicken fingers, fish, breakfast, salads, soup, and homemade milkshakes. And the zucchini..I love friend zucchini. It's not slices, but big spears. It cuts the top of your mouth, but I still order it every time I'm there. Everyone there is really cordial and helpful.
