Overall, my experience at Lava Grill was positive. The ambiance of the restaurant was pleasant, and the service was generally good. However, I found our server to be a bit eccentric and overly enthusiastic about upselling expensive menu items. I didn't appreciate being pressured to choose pricier options or having my meal referred to as a "budget meal." Despite this, the food itself was excellent, although some of the steaks were undercooked for my liking. I would suggest to my weird Burkrian server be more attentive to customer preferences and avoid unnecessary upselling tactics and being so argumentative. Despite these minor issues, I enjoyed the dining experience and would recommend Lava Grill for its delicious food

The service was excellent but food was subpar. Cowboy steak was rubbery and flavorless, Chinese chicken was hard and inedible, sushi was pretty decent. My sister came in from out of town and I was hoping to take her to a new place that would be delicious. The service was great and my sister ordered Uber eats when we left. Will not be returning.

This place had amazing food got the lamb chops and bronzino both amazing deserts were delicious as
Had dinner there last night thinking it was still Holy Schnitzel, but when we arrived and discovered the internet site had not been updated, decided to try it anyway. Would describe as average. Had Kung Pao chicken requested extra spicey with extra peanuts. It had neither and the peanuts were ingredient as crumbs, not whole peanuts. Wife, professional chef and caterer had burger; 6 ounces with no sides and no bargain price. Owners were there and asked for our input. When provided, they dismissed us, did not want to flex and reinforced it to be unlikely we will return anytime soon. There are a lot of kosher options in the vicinity.

I stumbled on Lava Grill by mistake while traveling to Sunny Isles. I was a party of one adult, two teens and a preteen. We ordered the pulled beef with fries and the cheburek with meat. Everyone loved the pulled beef. I liked the cheburek the beef, it was well flavored and it went well with the marinara sauce. We ordered four mains : make your own salad (i was immressed by the freshness of the avacodo), lamb kebob in a laffa, marinated chicken in a laffa (both sandwiches came with a home made buffalo sauce on the side), and kebobs of lamb and steak (they were served with a very well seasoned marinara sauce). Everyone loved the food. I felt that the meats aside from being exceptionally fresh were also well pick (I am a fan of lamb and i was impressed by how it was cooked. For drinks, per our request of just water, the server gave us a nicley chilled pitcher of water. Unfortunatly I was so hungry i didnt take pictures of all the dishes. Regarding the prices, I am used to Brooklyn prices and Lava Grill seemed to be the same or even a little less. The items are priced appropriately.The resturant was very clean and you can tell the owners are putting alot of care into the mediterranean theme, i happened to have really enjoyed it. I also enjoyed the backround music playlist.The server was really top notch. I had three kids with me that took a long time to order and the server was very patient especially for the create your own salad (they use toast ordering system so that was also helpful).All in all I would defintely suggest the resturant. It definitely exceeded my expectaions!

Very overpriced! The waitress was nice, and her service was good! Samsa was small tasted good, but the meat filling was hard to chew. I didn't like the Lagman soup, it was tasteless! Kebabs were good! There's a 18% mandatory service charge! We ordered French fries, with garlic and dill. They will charge you extra for garlic and gill spice! They don't serve fresh garlic and dill on the fries, as expected! They are very overpriced, for the portions they serve!
Food is very low quality. Not even close to authentic. Ordered thru uber eats, waste of 220$. Save your money.

I recently visited Lava Grill restaurant, and the experience was fantastic! The avocado salad was excellent, the skirt steak kebab was incredibly tender, and the homemade bread with eggplant dip was simply amazing. We tried various dishes from the menu, and everything was delicious. Highly recommended for a delightful culinary experience!

Lava Grill located in the shopping center and have plenty parking. Beautiful restaurant and service was wonderful. Food is amazing. Feel like I was home. We have a great server. His name is Edward he's very knowledgeable and explained the menu well with any questions we have! The bathroom was also very clean and soap smell was very pleasant! Its Mediterranean cuisine so highly recommend if you enjoy this style of food:)
