| - I had my first experience at FEZ about a month ago (I'm slow to post this). I was planning my best friend's 30th birthday and thought this would be a fun place to have dinner.
I had never eaten here but wanted to go someplace different that was reasonably priced with a fun/interesting atmosphere.
I called to see if they accepted reservations for large parties and they guy I spoke to was very friendly. I also needed to check that they had high-chairs for some little ones - which they did. He put us on the calendar (for 20 of us) and I checked in with him a day before and everything was still good.
I arrived 30 minutes early with a large cake and balloons and flowers for our table - which I was happy to see was already set up and ready to go!!
The waiter we had was very friendly (I think he was involved in Theater in school - he was very theatric and spoke with an English/Irish accent which we weren't sure was real or not). But, nonetheless, he was super friendly and cute, too!
The atmosphere was great - upbeat, kind-of club-like music, but it wasn't jam packed with tables where you feel like you can't move your chair out because you'll hit the chair of the person next to you at a different table, which was very nice. The colors are fun - orange, green, etc.
The food I have to say was amazing too!! The cinnamon dusted sweet potato fries were the best I've ever had! For appetizers, a friend ordered the FEZ lettuce wraps - with grilled chicken, dried pears, dates, cherries, almonds, pomegranate vinaigrette in romaine cups - AMAZING!!! Would be good as a meal itself.
For dinner, I got the Douxelle burger- a burger with mushrooms, onions, provolone cheese, mustard, roma tomatoes on ciabatta bread - really good and cooked perfectly. My friend had the Casablanca chicken sandwich - chicken breast, pomegranate vinaigrette, goat cheese, sliced pears, dried cherries and field greens on ciabatta. I'm not a huge chicken sandwich person but this was AMAZING too!!! Everyone in our group got a variety of things and I didn't hear one complaint - everyone was saying how good their food was.
The only thing I will complain about was the fact that with such a large party (which only ended up being 15) they definitely had a problem getting all of our food out at the same time. It came in 3 shifts. By the time the 3rd shift of food came out the people that got their food first were already done eating. So, it wasn't just a little delay - it was a big delay and very frustrating. Thus, I gave them 4 stars instead of 5.
We did have 2 little babies in the party - one 6 month old and one 1 year old. The music was pretty loud and club-like so I thought they wouldn't like it but the 1 year old loved it - moving to the beat of the music in his high-chair. And the little 6 month old fell asleep - so I guess it wasn't too loud.
But, overall it was a good experience and I'd definitely go back!!
