Meyhouse & Meyhouse Jazz ClubB+
640 Emerson St, Palo Alto, CA 94301
· Turkish restaurant, Jazz club
· Palo Alto
Refined Turkish meyhane dishes with standout mezes and bread, lively jazz room, premium pricing, and service that ranges from gracious to inconsistent.
Why this grade
Meyhouse & Meyhouse Jazz Club delivers exceptional food quality with expertly grilled seafood, outstanding mezes, and fresh-baked bread that justify its premium positioning. However, inconsistent execution—occasional bland fish or oversalted dishes—and service delays during peak hours prevent a higher grade. The beautiful interior and live jazz create special-occasion appeal, making it competitive with the area's better neighborhood restaurants, though reservations are essential for optimal experience.
One caveat: Pricing is genuinely high (mains $33-69; $95 tasting) and some find portions lean
What to order here
- Levrek (branzino)
- Köpoğlu (eggplant and yogurt)
- Ahtapot (grilled octopus)
What stands out
- The warm, chewy bread with olive oil
- Silky eggplant-yogurt mezes with bright acidity
- Confident charcoal grilling on fish and lamb
