The Good Stuff
High Ceilings
The high roof and ventilation make indoor shisha smoke less noticeable while dancing, although clothing can still smell of smoke afterward.
Shrimp Tacos
Shrimp tacos were singled out as an especially strong dish by one diner.
Cocktail Flavours
The Prickled Paradise and Floral Coast margaritas were particular favourites in one visit.
Brunch Energy
Some brunch reviews praise the varied menu, signature cocktails and lively music for a social daytime outing.
Roomy Atmosphere
A reviewer found the venue cozy, with a pleasant atmosphere and good service.
Tips for a Better Visit
Confirm Charges. Get the minimum spend and package terms in writing before arriving; one caller was quoted AED 500 per person after previously hearing AED 300.
Check Events. Confirm the DJ, start time and music style on the day, since one advertised night had no DJ activity while guests waited for hours.
Plan Brunch. For a large brunch booking, ask how much food will reach each table and when courses will be served; guests reported leaving hungry.
Arrive Later. For some Thursday night events, arriving later may make more sense because the party starts late and the venue fills gradually.
Expect Smoke. Even with high ceilings and ventilation, indoor shisha smoke may cling to your hair and clothes after the visit.
Ask Valet. If you drive, ask whether valet parking can be validated before committing to the booking.

The Bottom Line
La Mezcaleria DXB | Meydan is a lounge in Nad Al Sheba for brunches, shared plates, cocktails and DJ-led evenings. The strongest reviews focus on the party side: some nights combine Arabic, Latino and English music, with fast mixes that keep the room dancing. Named drinks such as the Prickled Paradise and Floral Coast margaritas, plus shrimp tacos, also received specific praise.
The experience is notably inconsistent. Some guests describe cozy surroundings, attentive service and an enjoyable brunch menu, while others report bland or cold food, late courses and portions too small for groups. One party of 19 said three sliders per table were nowhere near enough, and another group went to a diner afterward because everyone was still hungry.
Brunch packages have also been criticised for unclear inclusions and weak value. Confirm the minimum spend, package, DJ start time and music format in writing before you go. Reviews mention charges of AED 500 per person, changing package prices and advertised events that did not properly happen.
The party may start late, so early arrivals can find the venue quiet. High ceilings reduce the felt impact of indoor shisha smoke, but your clothes and hair may still carry the smell home.
