“This restaurant is known for its fresh seafood and Mediterranean flavors. All of their fish and shellfish are caught the same day and are absolutely fresh. Their grilled octopus, seafood platters, and Greek-style fish stews are especially recommended, each of which will be unforgettable!“

“חוויה פשוט מושלמת ובלתי נשכחת! מרגע שנכנסנו הרגשנו בבית. מומי, בעל המקום, אדם מקסים עם לב ענק, קיבל אותנו בחום ואהבה שמורגשים בכל פרט. האוכל היה פשוט מצוין – טעמים מדהימים, איכות גבוהה, והכול נעשה עם הרבה אהבה ותשוקה. המלצרית שלנו, שלי, הייתה לא רק יפה אלא גם מתוקה, קשובה ודאגה שנרגיש הכי בנוח שיש – ממש כמו בבית. השירות שלה היה אישי, חם ומלא תשומת לב. האווירה נהדרת, האוכל נפלא, והיחס יוצא מן הכלל. לא רק מסעדה – תחושה אמיתית של משפחה. מומלץ בחום גדול! אין ספק שנחזור שוב.“

“We’ve visited the Guest a number of times, as a couple, with our family and always had a great dinner. Food choices are nicely varied, without being overwhelming. Tastes consistently great and servers are friendly and quick without being intrusive. Definitely worth checking out and enjoy the fun outdoor seating.“

“La comida es exquisita y la atención mejor lo recomiendo“

“Absolutely loved our experience at Jass Kitchen! Wine, food, decor, coffee and music were all amazing. Hope to visit again when we’re in the area!“

“Awful. Rude staff, poor service, overpriced and pretty sure they discriminate racially. Nice views and design does not make up for it.“

“Great service! Clemente was great!“

“That pita bread is better than pizza. Wood burning oven. Best traditional Greek dishes. Oh wait l, you want 45 oz of steak. Sliced … but bone with meat also on plate. Out of this taste bud world. Don’t think too much, eat and enjoy. Matias also is as good it gets taking care of us tonight. No more to say, I’m having dessert now.“

“I like this place a lot. The food is served impeccably. Large menu of authentic Turkish food. Reasonable prices and the most important very nice owners (Tuba’s brother). The tea they serve is black tea from Sri Lanka (it has some bergamot hint ). Its a true killer. I highly recommend them.“

“Fantastic AuthenticTurkish food and great service. Specially mix grill and meze's are great....
Additionally, eating & drinking a meal in front of the fireplace in the garden is a wonderful feeling.
Congratulations 👍“

“My wife and I had a wonderful lunch here and were truly impressed. The food was vibrant, beautifully presented, and full of authentic Mediterranean flavor.

The tahini and hummus topped with steak were exceptional, the cauliflower outstanding, and both the shish kafta and chicken were cooked flawlessly and packed with flavor. We paired our meal with the Galil Mountain Winery “Alon 2023” from Upper Galilee, which complemented the dishes beautifully.

The service was excellent and attentive throughout. A refined yet warm experience — we will definitely be back“

“My group had a wonderful time at ZOI Restaurant today lunch time. There were 10 of us celebrating 2 Birthday’s. From the large free parking lot to the entrance, gorgeous orchids growing on the lush trees greet you. The outdoor garden patio seating area where we dined is magical, and the seats are so plush and comfortable. It’s an unexpected botanical garden of palms, cycads, orchids, and bromeliads surrounding large lagoons. The Mediterranean /Greek food is wonderfully delicious, especially the variety of Mezzes that I had. The grilled Octopus and Lamb Chops were sensational. ZOI has developed the perfect mix of food, intimacy, and culinary expertise. Management spoiled us with pampering and great service. This place was so much fun, we didn’t want to leave.“

“Branja is a solid option!
There is not much around the area, branja and another restaurant near it.

Venue is very pretty with a great glass ceiling, there are a few small businesses around.

If you book via the reservation app, restaurant is what gives you space under the nice glass roof.

Restaurant is part of Miami spice.

The short rib is a great dish and special mention to the schnitzel that was amazing: crispy and juicy!“

“Best Shawarma in Florida. HANDS DOWN!!“

“I recently stopped by SHA Wynwood with my wife. We both went with the Risotto Funghi Porcini with lamb, and overall—this dish delivered.

The risotto was rich, creamy, and packed with deep umami flavor from the porcini mushrooms. Every bite felt well-balanced and comforting without being heavy. The lamb paired nicely with the dish and complemented the earthiness of the risotto beautifully.

If I had to nitpick, the lamb came out a bit closer to medium-well than medium, which slightly missed the mark for me. That said, it was still flavorful and didn’t take away from the overall experience.

The vibe, the food quality, and the execution make SHA Wynwood a spot I’d absolutely recommend—especially if you’re into elevated comfort dishes with bold flavors.“

“Great food. Friendly staff. Very nice environment. A must go place.“

“This restaurant is really a solid 4½ stars. The keftah and chicken tawouk were phenomenal—perfectly spiced and cooked. The falafel was clearly made fresh to order, but unfortunately it was undercooked. While the outside was crispy, the inside was still raw, which affected the overall flavor. It wasn’t a huge issue, but it was noticeable and resulted in a slightly bitter after taste.
The chicken shawarma was cooked perfectly, but it lacked flavor entirely. There was also no sauce to make up for it, so my guest ended up not eating it.
That said, the service was excellent and the atmosphere was memorable. The restaurant is beautifully themed and truly feels like an authentic Lebanese dining experience. Overall, they’ve done a great job—but for the price, there’s room for a bit more consistency and refinement.“

“Tucked into the Oceanside of our favorite Boutique Hotel in NOBE, this place will WOW you with their food, atmosphere and view. The staff is phenomenal, service is excellent. We’ve had most everything on the menu over the years, most recently the Ahi Tartar, Greek Salad, Grape Arugula Salad, Kalypso Burger and pizzas (Margarita and Mushroom), Lamb Shank and Short Rib, everything was perfectly prepared and presented. It’s accessible from the beach walk or Collin’s Ave. you will not be disappointed with a visit to this fine establishment. Achilles and his staff including Kenny and Niko will treat you like family.“

“Great customer service and bartender, bartender Maria!“

“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.“

“Yann the Manager went above and beyond to get us a table inside. The ambiance outside was beautiful and perfect but too hot for my toddler. Atmosphere indoors was perfect and reminded me of our trip to Paris.
Food was so delicious and perfect! Will be coming back next time in Miami 😍“

“We were a party of 6 (7 if you count the dog) and enjoyed all items ordered; healthy and great quality produce.“

“Zelda’s Kitchen is hands-down one of the best Mediterranean/Turkish food experiences in South Florida. Every dish — from the homemade mezze to the tender kebabs and crispy zucchini fritters — tastes incredibly fresh and full of authentic flavor. You can feel the love and tradition Zelda puts into her cooking.

On top of that, the convenience is unbeatable. Zelda’s Kitchen is available on Uber Eats and other major delivery platforms, so getting this level of quality delivered to your door is a total game-changer. Whether you’re ordering for yourself, hosting friends, or looking for top-tier catering, Zelda’s delivers every time.

If you’re searching for real Mediterranean flavor, generous portions, and consistently amazing service, this is the spot. A true must-try.“

“I’ve been going to Taula when two young chefs opened it. Loved their concept of fresh meats cooked on vertical spits! You had the choice of yummy options but their best were crispy potatoes! Then ownership changed but fortunately still kept recipes going for the options and sauces, thank goodness.

However, when I went today, the options like Eggplant wasn’t available for the Mediterranean box but I wasn’t told. I looked at the list of options for Mediterranean box on the revolving screen and that’s how I discovered it. And list was different from printed menu copy. So, just be aware.

They still give you tons of everything as well as chicken. Chicken and other meats were precooked in a heated container. There’s enough for two people for $17, not bad for Miami!“

“Dad loves the schawarma. Different textures with a little heat. Definitely recommend.“

“Great experience at Amalia Café in Miami Beach ☀️

Martin is always kind and attentive — it’s a real pleasure to be welcomed by him every morning. The interior décor is soft and relaxing, and the terrace on Collins Avenue is perfect for enjoying the Miami sunshine.

I truly enjoyed having breakfast here every morning during my stay. Highly recommended!“

“One of the best restaurants state-side. Highly recommend. Excellent staff and service; great food and presentation. An amazing place for family gatherings and a great date. Enjoy.“

“We have lunch at this location every other week, always excellent.

We choose catering for a family gathering, and the experience was amazing, the customer service was outstanding, the food price was reasonable for the quantity served, and the food quality and taste superb.

We highly recommend for catering as well.“

“Alvyn, our server IS the best. !!! Wonderful suggestions topped with fabulous service. The food is as good as the service.“

“I stopped by Maison Ostrow and had a really enjoyable experience. The place has a charming, slightly upscale vibe that feels both cozy and refined. I ordered a main dish, and it was beautifully prepared—flavorful, balanced, and made with care. The presentation was a nice touch as well. The staff were friendly and attentive, making the visit smooth and pleasant. It’s a great spot for a relaxed yet quality meal, and I’d definitely come back.“

“parabéns pelo atendimento“

“Very fun restaurant with beautiful Turkish Tiffany lamps as decor. On weekends they have a very lovely singer who sings in 7-10 different languages to your requests! Service is wonderful. All the waitresses are pretty and sweet Abandon parking and easy cozy atmosphere! You can’t go wrong!“

“I was there two weeks ago Excellent service and food!! Five stars“

“I absolutely love this restaurant/hotel. The food is outstanding, especially the breakfast—it reminds me so much of those incredible Israeli buffet breakfasts with an endless variety. From freshly made toast and assorted cheeses to fish, omelets with all kinds of toppings, creamy cappuccinos, and fresh fruit—there’s truly something for everyone. Everything is fresh and delicious, and the options feel indulgent without being overwhelming. I honestly can’t wait to go back again!“

“Increíble food and service the best“

“great food, last portions, really flavourful. food is fresh. the staff is really friendly and listen to your request. Prices are good for the type of food, it may look like a fast food but the food is definitely not cheap quality. Really delicious my son devour the chicken kabob platter.“

“Best restaurant in South Florida“

“I had such an amazing experience at this restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. You can really tell they put care into every dish. What made the experience even better was the service. Lulu my waiter, was incredibly kind, attentive, and welcoming. She made sure everything was perfect and had such a warm, friendly attitude that made us feel right at home.
Great food, great service, and a great atmosphere I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!“

“Amazing small Market that churns out delicious Lebanese food. The flavors are so good you'll come back often! They have a full sit down restaurant attached, but my wife and I like the simplicity of ordering a Shwarma or mixed grill platter and sitting at one of the tables with our toddler (who adores their pita and hummus), no frills. Absolutely recommend this spot to anyone who likes the cuisine.“

“Healthy food and fresh ingredients. Definitely will be back !!!!!“

“Muy lindo lugar muy agradable muy Familiar me encanto mucho si así es Turquía wow encantada de ir a ese lindo país que me tiene enamorada de sus productos por las novelas y ahora la comida wow muy rica nunca había aprobado comida del Medio Oriente y nos encantó mucho delicioso todo satisfecha lo recomiendo mucho este lugar“

“It was our first visit there, the food was authentic and very tasty. Good value for your money as well! We will be repeat clients for sure!“

“Amazing kebabs! You absolutely must try CHICKEN THIGHS and BEEF KEBABS. Potatoes prepare in-house from scratch are WOW!!!
Mangal grills all meat using charcoal NOT PROPANE GAS!
Every kebab restaurant chain uses propane to cook the meat which leaves a distinct taste. Try Mangal kebabs and you will immediately taste the smoky grilled juicy tender meat and you will never eat any food that's grilled using gas to create open flame. Now I always ask about the grill process anywhere we go and if it's powered by gas, I don't order anything grilled. Gas is significantly cheaper than grilling charcoal. Mangal is the truth!!! Enjoy!!!!!!!!“

“Hummus is amazing! Garlic and lemon zest are on point!! The peach cobbler egg rolls are a great sweet treat and the lemonade is refreshing in the FL heat 10:10 recommend!“

“The ocean views are spectacular and we had a wonderful waiter. A wedding was going on during our visit so it definitely impacted the relaxing atmosphere. It wasn't the usual Trump Restaurant standards. Bathrooms were filthy and run down and it had a pool side cheap hotel feel compared to most other Trump hotels . That said I would go back if I wanted a place to eat on the ocean! I think if Trump visited this place he'd be disgusted by how run down and dirty it felt.“

“. The food and the service was outstanding. I shared the Turkish platter with which consisted of fresh vegetables, cucumbers, celery, broccoli, carrots, with Romain, lettuce and baba ghanoush, a tomato, cilantro, cucumbers, onions, vinaigrette, and and I had grilled Seabass with steak fries and truffle butter. With the olive oil chocolate cake, vanilla ice cream for dessert. Located in the design District of Miami off of NE. 2nd Ave. The staff and servers are very friendly and welcoming. It’s a lovely place to have a meal. Thank you so much.“
