    Food was disappointingly not flavorful for a Mediterranean cuisine. Lamb chops were requested for medium and came out well done and not flavorful. Ditto chicken kebobs. Bugatsu was a weird interpretation with chunks of cinnamon and sparse cream. Crispy short rib hummus was a hit. Greek salad lacked flavor too.

    This restaurant came highly recommended by a friend, and it quickly became our favorite spot during our stay in Bal Harbour. While it’s located in The Shops at Bal Harbour and doesn’t have a view, the relaxing outdoor vibe—lush with greenery and intimate lighting—more than made up for it. Despite being busy, it was easy to have a conversation. Our waiter was fantastic—knowledgeable and attentive. He guided me through the vegan options and even let me know that the house-made bread contained yogurt (a bummer, but I appreciated the heads-up!). He thoughtfully swapped it for gluten-free crackers, which was a great touch. The food was outstanding. My favorite dish was the chilled cucumber—the flavor profile was just incredible. My husband discovered the labneh, which he absolutely loved. The small plates were perfect for sampling a variety of dishes, and everything we tried was fresh and beautifully prepared. Highly recommend this spot for a delicious and enjoyable dining experience!

    We live in Detroit where we have an abundance of delicious Mediterranean restaurants and this one was by far the best food, service and ambiance I’ve ever experienced in the USA for Mediterranean. Highly recommend.
