Review from Karyn B.

Well they upped their prices from the original Bathurst and Steeles location and created a more upscale, modern Me Va Me
The portions are always quite large, which is normal and expected for a middle eastern restaurant (like in Yummy Grill, Sofra Grill, etc)
The main entrees come with a salad and side
I had the chicken breast skewers with rice. The meat was nice and tender . The thing that annoyed me is that I ordered a lamb burger to go. Instead of them bringing it to me wrapped up, I had to exit the restaurant (after paying) and go to the "Express" side, which is a separate entrance. I had to wait for about 2-3 people ahead of me (even though I ordered the burger and it was waiting). Then I got my burger... by this time the fries were gross and soggy because they had been ordered earlier and were just sitting in a closed container collecting moisture (from the heat and water bubbles that were forming). Considering it was an extra $5 for those fries, I was NOT impressed
They also used a whole wheat bun without asking me and the bun was quite a bit larger than the burger. The "Express" side was such an inconvience. Next time I know (and you'll know too!) if I am eating inside and want something to go, I'll just order it to the table (as a meal) and get a to-go container before I leave. -

Salad was cold cold cold, fridged.
Fries were good good good, crispy.
Pickles added some sourness, nice.
Take-out section should have speed/efficiency.
That's the whole reason why I chose take-out. -

This place puts many expensive steakhouses to shame.
Seriously. Try the filet mignon skewers. They're truly delicious. And cheap!
Me Va Me is a casual dining spot with a nice terrace. Every time I've been there, I've been greeted warmly by the staff and treated very well. They usually have good suggestions for drinks and food if you're lost.
I've had their hummus, baba ganoush and __(something else)__ pita appetizer, and it's always been good. The baba ganoush is ADDICTIVE. Very smoky and well prepared. The __(something else)__ thing is this red ...mash that's a bit too sweet for me. I wish I remember what it's called, but the other people I was with liked it, so maybe it's an acquired taste.
I've had their filet mignon skewers with mashed potatoes and salad several times, and every time I order it, it has been consistently flavourful and the meat always juicy. The salad is fresh and tasty, and the potatoes are pillowy clouds of garlic joy. I also recommend their lamb skewers! Very good.
I haven't tried any of their drinks aside from the Lemonana but I can't see why I would; the Lemonana is really delicious mint-based lemonade and pairs well with the lamb skewers as a refreshing drink.
The skinny: It's friendly there, tasty and you'll get more value than you'd expect from their skewered meats. -

Love the decor of this new place. I think the look of the restaurant is getting better and better with each update.
The food looked great and the garden salads that I saw people order were baby spinach mixes with a nice variety of veggies - everything look very fresh.
I had the chicken pesto wrap which was very fresh and tasty.. I upgraded to a greek salad as my side.. I wish that there was more salad that came with my wrap as the amount of salad was skimpy. -

Actually....not bad. The typical fare are good quality and doesn't taste like it's been sitting in a cooler for a month, like the hummus. The eggplant dip is great too, but tastes like they added sugar
Overall, enjoyed the food way more than my other Mediterranean hang out, Jerusalem. The food is basically more fresher and better quality. Service was good and they have tons or staff, which is probably why.
It was busy for a Monday night, but we didn't have to wait for a table. I have heard it's a mad house on the weekend. Due to the novelty of it just opening a month ago, and the nature of it's location, I'd say it will be like this for some time.
If you don't like crowds or screaming children, avoid the appropriate times. Hit it up as late as you can on a school week night. -

Bad, bad. Service - awful. Food - bland, watered down Israeli food. Perfect for the middle of the road suburbia.
