25 Best Mediterranean Restaurants near Sunrise

“The owner is a real jerk, vaping as he prepares the food. I supposedly went in to train as a cashier, only to get overwhelmed by duties as the cashier, taking orders on the phone, packing take-outs, handling Door Dash, Uber Eats, Grub Hub, serving all the tables as a waitress for the whole place, cleaning them all up as a busperson, and bringing patio furniture outside. Good thing I didn't work at night or I'd have the added duties of also mopping the floors, cleaning the bathrooms as a janitor, and bringing in all the patio furniture. The owner calls it multi-tasking. I call it too cheap to hire more employees. It is insane to ask for so much from one person! As it is, he only pays minimum wage and all the credit card tips are kept by the owner himself! From here I have learned that I'll be leaving cash tips for wait staff in the future, since greedy owners like this feel they are entitled to keep all credit card tips. The place is a disgrace.“

“- make sure you enter through the west end entrance by Marshall’s and it’ll take you directly there.

The guys gave great service

Food has great portions and I love the options and I will say the food has great flavor there wasn’t a dish I didn’t like.

For the price and portion I’d say it’s reasonable“

“Amazing taste, fresh, this is the place to come is you want healthy flavored food, and let me get to the service, “great” the guy at front, sweetest ever, knowledgeable, it was the first time for me being in this place and I love it, no fancy, but familiar and relaxed. Loved.“

“One of my favorite spots. Food is always 100% and staff is always so friendly!
My husband and I actually bought food before a Panther's nhl game at Amerant Bank Arena. Ate shawarma during the 2nd period and everyone kept asking where we got our food from.

Definitely one of the more authentic places in FL.“

“Food and service was excellent“

The food was unbelievable It was something I was not expecting. And I'm so glad I stumbled in. Definitely, give it a try.You will not be disappointed“

“First time here and the place was so clean, had above and beyond attentive staff, and the food was amazing. Jonathan took care of us and our questions with so much patience. You can tell the chef, Rolin, cares about the quality of the food because everything we ordered was beyond on point. Dave was on point making sure everyone’s experience dining in was a great one and he was on top of making sure the place stayed clean and taken care of.“

“My wife and I visited for the first time last night. Sat at the bar. Jay our Bartender was outstanding! Gave us great recommendations on the menu and for cocktails. We had a wonderful time, enjoying the food and watching the dancer perform. Would recommend to anybody.“

“The food was great. Everything came out extremely fresh And Cook to order the atmosphere was very welcoming made you feel as if you were coming to a family’s house for lunch I can only imagine dinner. The mint lemonade is definitely a go to especially on these warm days even on this chilly day it’s refreshing. Be sure to try Everything that catches your eye as it is very appeasing filling and delightful.“

“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.“

“Such a delight to have discovered this place with healthy Mediterranean dishes, so close to home and so many healthy meat and vegetarian options. So clean and such beautiful decor! 😍 The staff very cordial and attentive. Made great suggestions n recommendations too. We will return regularly ❤️“

“WOW! This was our second time at Candela. This time, we had my husband's birthday dinner there with about 7 people. The appetizers/tapas were beyond delicious. Would highly recommend the octopus, the yuca, the potatoes - the list goes on! Some advice - do not leave there without trying the paella - the best you've ever had! The chef/owner kept coming over to us and talking to us about the food - the servers, the staff, everyone was just wonderful. What an incredible, personal experience... cannot wait to go back.“

“May Allah Azzawajal bless your business with abundance and barakah. the best Mansaf we had. It was fresh, delicious and yummy. The Mansaf was well worth the price. Thank you Al-Salam Restaurant .and we will definitely return for mansaf again and again. Keep it up ??“

“The food was outstanding—the Chicken Shawarma and Churrasco platter was a perfect duo of tender, well-seasoned meats, paired with incredibly creamy hummus and a bright, refreshing tabbouleh. However, what truly made the night was the service. Our server, Mava, was absolutely amazing; she was a wealth of information about the menu and remained attentive without being intrusive. Faviana was also remarkably attentive, ensuring we had all we needed. This kind of teamwork and expertise is rare—we’ll definitely be back!“

“I wanted to use this platform to thank Al Natour Middle Eastern Restaurant and all of its staff for always making us feel like family. If you not yet tried their food please do so. Excellent is an understatement! Please see Shuaibi for the best recommendations 🥙🌯🎂🥳💕 Thank you Shuaibi and the rest of the Al Natour family 💕💕💕“

“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.“

“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“

“What a hidden gem of a place! The food was excellent, fresh and delicious, good portion sizes too. Great for take out or probably catering too. My son loved the beef kabob. Highly recommend this family run, local restaurant! We were pleasantly surprised to find it.“

“This place is the best~~~ Staff, food all excel~ and the PITA BREAD! outstanding~“

“DELICIUS“

“I’m not Muslim or Mediterranean at all I’m just a person who likes good food and Up until now the best Mediterranean spite of my opinion was “Halal Guys” I am extremely glad I gave this place a chance. As soon as you walk in it just smells delicious and Everything looks good so it’s gonna be hard to choose I had the kebab Skewers sandwich and I promise you it was the Greatest meals I ever had…. I did not know Mediterranean food could be delicious I WILL be back To try some of the Bakery selections which unfortunately closes at five so I didn’t get to try any today but I’ll definitely be giving it another shot. Also the staff is very friendly and welcoming Didn’t feel like a outsider at all And very much welcome definitely will be back“

“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!“

“Ethos is a favorite of ours, the good is always terrific. Today's visit was extra special due to Sasha, our wonderful server. She anticipated our needs before we asked without being intrusive. Service was quick, and always with a smile. The service is always good, bet she was special.“

“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 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.“
