• Mediterranean • Lauderdale Beach

Booked 23 times today

Thasos is a haven for those who don’t want to speed through moments in time. Surrender to the inviting yet transportive environment and allow your imagination to wander to the allure of the Greek isles. A place where pretense diminishes and guests are invited to unwind from the frenzy of life’s distractions by taking one back to a place of cascading blues and pearly whites: welcome to Thasos. Sample delights inspired by the long-standing culinary traditions of the Greek culture presented with a fresh, modern twist. The menu is reminiscent of the undulating textures in the Mediterranean. Just as ancient fishermen were inspired by the vast oceanic beauty, we were inspired to capture the true essence of the sea. The menu honors Thasos' lush landscape and exterior, by blending the boundaries between nature and artifice.

From the warm welcome of Thomas and Georges and Stanley's great recommandations, everything was perfect. The food was exquisite, fresh and tasty. A gem to discover or rediscover. People suffering from celiac disease can eat great food without any problem.

Everything at Dune is is wonderful but my favorites are the steak, octopus and beet salad. The Hamachi Curdo is an outstanding appetizer.

Great restaurant! Unfortunately our table was looked after by the bar staff that were very busy. No one came by to switch out our side plates when the dinner was served so we had to use the smaller plates. Obviously not a huge deal, but that’s why I didn’t give a 5 star rating. Definitely will go back!

My fiancé and I came here for date night and were certainly not disappointed! The food was great as always and the service was very fast. Our server Katie was very friendly and attentive and made our dining experience even better. Definitely would recommend this particular location in South Florida. It has a more downtown city vibe that was exactly what we were looking for. Will be coming back!
