We had lunch at Maezo this week. The food was very tasty but I found that the entrees in particular were overpriced and the service was weak.
The Samosa Chaat ($12) appetizer was huge and a big hit with all of us. This is a popular Indian street food in India and is tangy and sweet all at the time. I did not find it spicy at all. I would highly recommend this dish both in terms of taste and value for the money.
The Paneer Tikka Masala Wrap ($15) was delicious. It came with a cup of lentil soup which was good but needed salt. The Wrap was huge and very flavourful. I could only eat half of it.
The Sagar Shrimp ($24) came with a side of rice. The dish was very spicy and savory and we all loved the flavour but I felt that for the portion size, $24 was too steep for this dish. I would have expected to pay no more than $16-$18 at most for entree.
For most of our lunch, there appeared to be only one server/hostess on the floor. Towards the end, our food was being brought out by another gentleman (I assume he was the owner). He was very friendly and accommodating, unlike the female server who seemed detached and unfriendly.
If it were not for the price for the entrees and the uneven service, I would have given Maezo five stars.
