27 Best Mediterranean Restaurants in Fort Lauderdale

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

“Food and service was excellent“

“Tried Pita Express and it exceeded expectations. My son and nephew recommended it, and after trying it, I see why they like it so much.

They do something you don’t see often—they have both lamb and turkey shawarma on separate spits. I went with the lamb, and it was excellent—juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked perfectly.

The pita really stands out. It’s softer, fluffier, and feels homemade, which makes a big difference compared to the usual wraps.

They also serve complimentary fries on the side, which is a nice added touch.

Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to. If you enjoy shawarma, this place is worth trying.“

“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“

“We found the restaurant to be a beautiful surprise. Elegant decor and great food with exceptional service. So nice to meet the owner and daughter who were very warm and personable. We’ll surely be back! Thank You for a lovely evening. 5 stars!! 💥💥💥💥💥“

“DELICIUS“

“We celebrate my wife's birthday and my family and me we enjoyed the dinner. The atmosphere, service and food was amazing. The server (Romain lady) she was very professional and her good attitude made the dinner time renting. The Chef (turkish guy) came and introduced him self. The food was delicious and very tasty with a lot of flavors. We will be your guest again. Thank you for your hospitality.“

“We were a party of 7 celebrating a birthday. The manager took our cake and candles and told our server about them. Our server Adonis went above and beyond all expectations. He took flowers in the back to bring out with the cake and even put them on a vase. He asked me to give him a heads up on who the birthday girl was. He took out pictures. Finally he was extremely knowledgeable about the menu and allowed us to get separate checks. He even accommodated a late guest arrival for a total of 8 people. He was so nice and friendly and the reason why we will be back! Thank you Adonis and Del Mar for great food and service!“

“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!“

“We had an incredible dining experience here! Every dish we tried was bursting with flavor and beautifully presented, clearly made with care and high-quality ingredients. The staff were welcoming, attentive, and made us feel right at home. We enjoyed the food so much that we came back for supper a second time after our cruise. From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations—this is definitely a must-visit spot for anyone who loves amazing food and warm, friendly service!“

“Just do it!!! so much better than a recent restaurant meal that I had and while I'm visiting Fort Lauderdale I'll be probably there every night for the rest of my stay“

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

“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.“

“I had the BEST experience at Ethos Greek Restaurant!!!

The food was absolutely incredible everything tasted so fresh, flavorful, and authentic. You can really tell they put so much care into every dish. I honestly can’t stop thinking about it!

But what made the experience even more special was our server, Gabby. She was so kind, attentive, and genuinely made us feel welcomed from the moment we sat down. Her recommendations were spot on, and she made the whole night feel effortless and fun.

Amazing food is one thing, but amazing service takes it to another level and Gabby truly did that.

Can’t wait to come back!!“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“I found this hidden gem while visiting Ft. Lauderdale. The classics gyro was delicious and I ready enjoyed the spinach pies. The owner is super attentive and catering to his customers. If you need a quick and healthy options with great flavor, this is the place.“

“Unbelievable food flavorful and delicious �“

“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.“

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

“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!“
