26 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Fort Lauderdale

“Excellent food in a casual feeling restaurant overlooks the pool and ocean“

“Food and service was excellent“

“Best pita spot in Miami! The chicken shawarma pita and schnitzel pita are both amazing—fresh, flavorful, and always made perfectly. Great atmosphere for families or couples, friendly service, and consistently delicious food. Definitely recommend Pita Xpress!“

“Authentic Israeli style shawarma is one of the hardest things to find in this country. They absolutely nail it at Friendship Grill. The food can cure antisemitism. Seriously, it is made with love and delicious beyond words. Make sure to ask for the amba sauce. It is a sweet, slightly spicy sauce made from fermented mango and several spices. You will not regret it. To be honest, it is expensive. One shawarma pita with no sides is $36. But you are right in the middle of Las Olas, and it is getting harder and harder for restaurants to survive on what people think prices should be. So do not fault them for that. Your money is also going to a genuinely good cause. Look up Chabad. Their charity is legendary worldwide, and the restaurant is directly affiliated with them. Also, Spencer did a great job taking my order today. If you want something truly unique that you cannot get just anywhere, while also supporting Israel and treating yourself to an incredible meal, go to Friendship Grill. Just do not come Friday evening.“

“The wife and I had excellent Cuban sandwiches here and the view is awesome as well! Our server took great care of us, so it’s easy to see why the ratings are so high! I highly recommend it!“

“Little hidden place in Plantation, located on Pine Island Road in a small shopping plaza. Izgara is a Middle Eastern restaurant, with delicious food! The Hummus , is the best I have ever had! It's creamy, buttery with a little tangy kick! I had the Skewered Steak Platter with salad, fresh cut sweet potato fries ( that I kept dipping into my hummus) 😋 check this place out! P.S. they also have vegetarian options“

“How great to have delicious authentic Israeli food! Wish they’d add a location closer to Deerfield Beach.“

“I’ve been coming to Ethos Greek Bistro since their grand opening, and it continues to be one of my favorite spots in Fort Lauderdale. The food is always served to perfection fresh, flavorful, and consistently excellent every single time. You can really tell the kitchen takes pride in every plate that comes out. What truly makes this place special, though, is the people. From the bussers and kitchen staff to the servers and management, everyone treats you like family. Walking into Ethos never feels like going to a restaurant —it feels like walking into your second home. If you're looking for authentic Greek food, great service, and a warm atmosphere, Ethos is a must visit. Fort Lauderdale is lucky to have a place like this.“

“This is the vibe! Been to place several times and each time has been great. The food is delicious and the atmosphere is very nice .. like a swanky beach Tulum vibe. Also, they are super nice and accommodating. Last time we rolled in with a very large group and we had to leave in 1.5hrs. The manager there was able to accommodate us and we were happily fed and out with time to spare. Definitely a must try spot.“

“Sotogrande is a quiet respite with a coastal nod to yachting culture at Pier Sixty Six. The menu is appropriate for a warm weather climate with highlights like the Greek Village or watermelon salads, the skewers (chicken and Kofte) were divine. This spot is perfect if you want to dine al fresco and look out into the marina and million dollar yachts or inside with a chill vibe and live music. Reservations are probably recommended for peak dining times although I went earlier than that and walk-ins were accommodated.“

“Theos was an amazing experience from the moment we walked in the door. The Hostess was super accommodating and friendly. Our server Marco was superb. They had me after the Greek salad with the freshest ingredients and wonderful flavor. Great food, great service and reasonable prices is the hallmark of great restaraunts. Theos is the best.“

“DELICIUS“

“I enjoyed it very much, a place on another level.
Amazing service, pleasant atmosphere, clean and tidy,
And most importantly, food on another level.
It's worth a try.
You shouldn't miss the personal touch.“

“The food here is excellent. The service is fantastic. Everyone is super friendly and they use very fresh and healthy ingredients. This is one of the healthiest places I could find in the area and I am thrilled to be enjoying my dinner here. I’m definitely returning.“

“I suggest going outside on the water it's beautiful great service very friendly very fresh“

“Unbelievable food flavorful and delicious �“

“The food was amazing!! The spanakopita was the best I’ve ever had, Greek salad, the dressing is fabulous, the hummus to die for and the snapper yellowtail cooked to perfection! Thank you!“

“First time here and I can’t wait to go back! I found this gem on Yelp as I was looking for a special place to celebrate a good friend’s birthday. My friend wanted something on the water that was unique. Olive & the Sea looked like the perfect fit. I reached out a week prior to see if they could accommodate a party of 10. Bernadette (events manager) was amazing and got back to me right away. The restaurant was STUNNING. Beautiful atmosphere inside and out with water views. The food was delicious and so were the cocktails. Everything was very fresh and tasted great! Rachel our waitress did everything she could to make the night perfect. We had a private room that was gorgeous! I highly recommend everyone check Olive & the Sea out especially if you are looking for a special night!“

“Had food delivered from Gyroville for the first time today and had to run to leave my praises!

Portions were big! Salad was so fresh! Gyro meat was delicious, fries were so crispy!

The falafel was so crunchy and flavorful!

We got 2 gyro platters, one with regular Tzatziki and one with the spicy feta Tzatziki. Definitely going to have that again!! Wow
Looking forward to visiting in person this weekend!“

“We stay at the Westin Fort Lauderdale hotel and this is their main restaurant. We went for a quiet dinner today and we have been quite satisfied with the service and the food. They are really trying to be kind to us and you can almost feel a family type of business even though it’s part of a chain... We only took the BLT sandwich since we were not that hungry. The food was really good and their prices are very acceptable for a hotel restaurant.“

“This is my first visit to this Gyroville and it did not disappoint. The rotisserie had a rack of lamb glistening and dripping juice.

Easy menu pasted on the wall near the fresh ingredients. Chose the Traditional Gyro and picked some of the toppings with an extra side of the creamy tzatziki sauce that complements the moist lamb.

The gender neutral bathroom had black wrap around wall tile and industrial themed cracked cement flooring with a baby changing table for convenience.

If you love fresh gyros check this place out.“

“Absolutely loved the ocean view and welcoming staff! The Mediterranean love guitar entertainment was fantastic!! Our seafood was splendid and fresh and so good my seven year old daughter now likes seafood!“

“Everything was amazing ! 👍🏼“

“Breakfast the day before our cruise. Nice breakfast on a patio looking out over the ocean. Beautiful way to start a journey.“
