Mee & Greet, a Pan Asian soul food restaurant, is getting ready to relocate to Culver City at 3601 S. Overland Avenue.
The company’s new location is set to move into the former home of The Overland Cafe in Palms, sharing the space with Cafe Starlings. Owner Eric Ong tells What Now Los Angeles that the team expects the new space to be ready sometime between late January and early February, with construction already underway at the site. While an exact opening date has not been finalized, customers can expect the full Mee & Greet menu, along with expanded operational space compared to the brand’s temporary setup.
Mee & Greet previously operated for 10 years at 3500 Overland Avenue before closing that location on September 29, 2025. The restaurant has since been serving customers from its temporary home at Banyan Tree Marketplace for pickup, delivery, and office catering. The relocation marks a return to the Palms and Culver City area, where the brand originally built a loyal following.
The new location brings Mee & Greet back into a familiar neighborhood while allowing the team to build out a permanent space that better suits long-term needs. The former Overland Cafe site has attracted interest since the previous tenant’s departure, and the arrival of Mee & Greet adds a locally established operator with deep community ties. The move also helps consolidate operations as the restaurant prepares for its next phase of growth.
Mee & Greet’s menu centers on Pan-Asian comfort dishes, including rice plates, noodle bowls, snacks, and rotating specials inspired by Vietnamese and Southeast Asian flavors. The concept has attracted customers for its straightforward approach and consistent lineup of casual dishes. Dietary options such as vegetarian items and customizable bowls are also part of the regular offerings.
The Culver City space is expected to be an excellent landing place for the restaurant, considering its proximity to residential neighborhoods, office corridors, and steady foot traffic along Overland Avenue. Mee & Greet’s presence is likely to draw both longtime customers from its original Palms location and new diners discovering the brand for the first time.
