Food was good. Definitely had some bright moments. The wings were delicious, pita fresh steaming hot, but the entrees came out room temperature. Lamb chops were almost cold, 2 steak kebabs were room temp, salmon hot, chicken hot. Very inconsistent. You would think since they require everything (apps and entrees) to be ordered at the same time that it was so that everything came out timely, and hot but not the case. They also do an automatic 20% gratuity for all party sizes, We were 5. Big yikes. No wonder the waitress wanted us to order 2 apps PER PERSON. Trying to run up the bill to get that check average up. I get it. We went with 6 total for 5 people, plus individual entrees. Not to mention it was very loud.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amar Mediterranean Bistro in Delray Beach is an absolute gem! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The food was beyond delicious; every dish was bursting with authentic Mediterranean flavors and freshness. Our waitress, Amber, provided exceptional service with her friendly demeanor and attentive care. I highly recommend this restaurant to anyone seeking the best Mediterranean cuisine in South Florida. Can't wait to return!

Food was great. The three of us had the sample platter that included lamb and beef. We also had some smaller plates that we shared, including cheese, salad and hummus. The server, Sara, was wonderful. She helped us through the menu and all her suggestions were home runs! A great time.

Based on what we saw online we really wanted to try this place. Opentable said 'nothing available' but we called and they squeezed us in. Very glad they did. I wanted to try one of the Lebanese wines and the sommelier was very helpful. Service and food were perfect. We shared the mixed grill. The seating is a little tight but, we're from a crowded city so felt at home. I would come back to Delray Beach just to reprise this night.

Best food in Delray! We ate here for dinner and split 7 mezze plates between 3 of us and got a dessert. I highly recommend the stuffed grape leaves, sfiha, hummus with lamb and the octopus!! Everything was delicious and you cannot go wrong. We had the pleasure of being waited on by Nicole, she gave us amazing recommendations and we are very grateful for such a wonderful experience.

Delicious! Great cold and hot mezze. Shrimps, eggplant, hummus, lentils, rice, moussaka, pita and more! A feast!

A quintessential staple of Delray! Our first time and we will definitely be returning! We were initially greeted by Nicholas the owner and sat immediately despite being 2 hours early for our reservation. From the ambience to the superb customer service from our server Sarah, and the delicious food. We highly recommend Amar!!!
