Little Miss Mezza puts a contemporary take, creative spin, and modern Australian twist on mezza (Middle Eastern Cuisine) right in the heart of West Gosford. 

Described as the “sassy little sister” to Motel Mezza in Wyong, it is one of the many booming venues of the Meraki Group alongside Pinocchios, The Pantry, and Kefi in Koolewong. 

In fact, it was the loyal Gosford customers of Pinocchios that spoke loud and clear that they wanted a “Mezza” of their own, prompting owner and creator Tara to do just that. Long-time friend and business partner, Nick Waldon-Howe who is also a partner in The Pantry at Forresters Beach, joined forces once again and Little Miss Mezza was opened in February 2023. 

Meraki Groups Executive chef, Joshua Grant, designed Little Miss Mezza's menu which has received fantastic online reviews and has been a huge contributing factor to the loyal customer base. 

“Little Miss Mezza ticks all the boxes that Motel Mezza became so popular for, just on this end of the Coast. Every venue is different and Little Miss brings a fun, casual bar element with city-level service.” 

That welcoming vibe is seen in locals' night, happy hour, epic bar snacks, and the extensive vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options. 

“We don’t want individual food requirements to be a barrier, Little Miss Mezza can offer something for everyone.”

The Meraki Group is known for the experiences it creates within each dining venue, born from Tara’s own Greek heritage that sees food and drink as something to share and bond over. From the seasonal Italian long lunch of Pinocchios to the Burlesque Banquet at Little Miss Mezza.

“It is something out of the ordinary for a nice night out that’s fun and classy. Every single one so far has sold out.” 

This list of much beloved venues is soon to expand south to Koolewong with the opening of Kefi this October. Think long Greek lunches on the water, sunshine, seafood, and Greek island vibes. Tara is also providing hospitality coaching and mentorships for others within the industry. 

Grab your besties, your siblings, or your other half, and meet Little Miss Mezza.
