26 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“

“Grill Xpress absolutely nailed it! My shawarma wrap arrived perfectly packaged — foil-wrapped for freshness and handled with care to maintain full kashrut integrity. The attention to detail was clear from the moment I opened the bag: everything was clean, secure, and thoughtfully presented.

The aroma alone was mouthwatering, and the flavor delivered beyond expectations — tender, well-seasoned meat, crisp veggies, and a sauce that tied it all together beautifully. It’s rare to find a spot that combines authentic taste, kosher precision, and professional presentation so seamlessly.

Grill Xpress has earned a permanent spot on my lunch rotation. Five stars for quality, care, and deliciousness! 🌯✨“

“Food and service was excellent“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Fantastic hidden gem in Coral Springs. The food was fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The hummus was incredibly fresh, the shawarma was tender and well-seasoned, and the portions were generous.

I also loved that they serve authentic Turkish coffee and have a market with Middle Eastern groceries, spices, and teas, which adds to the experience and makes the place feel very authentic.

Great service, great food, and a welcoming atmosphere. I’ve had Mediterranean food all over South Florida, and this is definitely one of the better spots I’ve found. Looking forward to coming back and trying more of the menu. Highly recommend!“

“I have a friend who swears by this place. Tried it while I was in the area and I was impressed! Free, easy parking. No frills restaurant. It’s family owned and operated. Food was so fresh and excellent!! Everything was perfect. Can’t wait to go back!“

“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.“

“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 ❤️“

“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!“

“My son took me on a special date to try out this new restaurant he heard about. We walked in, and the restaurant looked incredibly clean, patrons looked happy enjoying their food, and the menu offered a wide variety of dishes. I chose a chicken shwarma salad, and my son ordered a burrito. They came out within a drew minutes, and we were pleasantly surprised at the freshness and portion size. Our food was so delicious, we vowed to come back soon! The leftovers the next day tasted even better! We would give this place more stars if we could! You gotta try it!“

“Old world charmer ,interior reminds me of Spain. Food was okay . As a former N.J resident I am spoiled by all the Portuguese restaurants we have. I was trying to find similar in S. FL. As almost all have disappeared. This is a Spanish restaurants while the food is good its portions are quite small compared to NJ. I love Portuguese cooking and portions are larger . This is also what I found in Spain. I miss mariscada in green sauce ,lobster in my paella and a ton of sea food & flavored yellow rice. So I would have to fly back to south river nj to get that super delicious food. We had one in palm beach that closed. Sad“

“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.“

“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 ??“

“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.“

“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 💕💕💕“

“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!“

“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“

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

“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.“

“DELICIUS“

“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.“

“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 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!“

“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.“

“Great food!!! Great service!!!“
