Creative Turkish kebab-mezze with a curated wine list; excellent flavors for many, but small portions, tight seating, and price sensitivity divide opinions.
MEHMET delivers above-average food quality anchored by signature wings and crisp fries that justify its Montmartre following, but inconsistent execution—ranging from excellent to dry or soggy—prevents a higher grade. The knowledgeable wine pairing guidance and charming neighborhood location add appeal, though tight quarters and recurring portion complaints temper the overall experience for casual diners seeking reliable comfort.
A lively Montmartre spot where kebab meets wine bar, MEHMET feels buzzy and intimate with close-set tables and fast-paced service. Reviewers swoon over the wings and crisp fries, while one diner said the team delivered spot-on wine guidance that made the meal sing. The cooking leans modern Turkish: quality sourcing, house flatbread, and mezze like labneh with chili oil. It is a creative, ingredient-led take on döner and köfte, not classic late-night street food. Many love the finesse; others wish for bolder seasoning or bigger portions, so expectations matter. For families, the menu offers kid-accessible picks like double-cooked fries, mild chicken döner, and simple mezze such as mücver or labneh. Portions run small, so plan to order extra sides or share multiple dishes if you have hearty appetites.
