This place is a vibe! Absolutely stunning and intimate outdoor space with retractable roof and greenery that hides you away from the bustle of Washington Ave. The service was super attentive and worked as a team. I enjoyed the shepherds salad, and the mixed platter with pita. The pistachio was so so good as was the beets, hummus and tzatziki. For my main I enjoyed the grilled branzino.

In an effort to avoid the party crowd and eat somewhere a little more quiet, I found this place not too far away from the beach. From the outside, it doesn't look like there is outdoor dining. However, the outdoor seating is actually surrounded by walls of greenery and a clear view of the sky during good weather. During bad weather, they extend the retractable roof. Indoor seating is available as well. Upon entering, there are two sparkling water bottles in every open table. These are not complimentary. They do provide complimentary hummus and bread. I ended up ordering the Grilled Branzino (Mediterranean). It tasted delicious and you can add pepper and salt (in grinder) if desired. My meal tasted delicious although I did find a few bones in my fish. The overall ambiance was excellent with the decor, view of the night sky, music, and occasional singing. The only bad part was its closeness to a busy road. Just a note that a service fee is automatically added to your check. This would be an excellent place for dinner if you want a break from the hustle and bustle of the beach crowd. I wouldn't mind coming back again.

I passed by this place so many times every time I come to Miami but never paid attention. But I ended up making reservations for a Sat nite for my next visit here and I was not disappointed at all! The oysters was so fresh and the perfect size. So delicious!! Then I got the ribeye cooked medium and it was cooked to perfection! The ambience was beautiful and we sat outside and it was a perfect night out. So many other stuff I want to try on their menu so I will definitely be back!

I enjoyed my meal and service at Kómma, but the menu was terribly overpriced. I ordered scallops, lemon potatoes, and one cocktail and walked out paying over $100. In most cases I want to enjoy not only the food but the ambiance and the character of a restaurant, but Kómma's flow was that of tables and chairs, nothing else. They have an outdoor seating area but it was cramped and narrow...to the point that the back of your chair would likely touch the person behind you when you got up to leave. I got the impression Kómma was trying to fit all of their tables outside. Kómma was conveniently located across the street from my hotel, The Goodtime Hotel, see my Yelp review. Overall I had a good experience at Kómma, but expected there to be more than just food for the price of the meal.

A very loud spot but has great aesthetics. A good place to bring people who want that Mediterranean vibe outside and more authentic food. The food was alright for how much everything costs. Don't know if I'll come back but it was a good experience.

Was a little dissapointed with this restaurant as I had better expectations however I should have realized that is south beach which means touristy if you know what I mean. The restaurant atmosphere is absolutely beautiful, the outside seating is great as they have a retractable sunroof. Fridays and Saturdays does have a belly dancer which is great and fun. The drinks were okay presentation on the drinks was good , however for a simple drink the delivery time was quite long for a restaurant that was not busy whatsoever. Servers were still ok not sure if there was a language barrier or anything however they were not really friendly or helpful. Food was were things went south everyone in my party of 10 ordered very different things from the menu and everyone somehow managed to not like it to say the least the lamb chops were very dry , the salmon was delivered cold and nothing really stood out as far as the food. Unfortunately as beautiful as the place is I wouldn't come back for dinner here perhaps just for cocktails.

We loved the happy hour drinks and appetizers. We had two drinks each and they were both great. One drink was the Apersol and the other was Quite a pickle. We also had the pita and hummus platter as well the calamari. The calamari was the best I've had in Miami . Also the staff was very friendly and accommodating as soon as we walked in. So we definitely thought dinner would have been phenomenal since we started off so good. Well we were sadly disappointed with our dinner and took a long time to come. We ordered the whole grilled branzino and lemon potatoes with asparagus. The fish was dried out and not tasty. The lemon potatoes was slightly under cooked and the asparagus was overcooked. So I wouldn't recommend dinner but I would go back for the happy hour and appetizers.

Four stars for our wonderful server and the killer ambiance. The outdoor dining experience here is lovely and our server was so helpful and friendly. They even had belly dancers when we were there on a Friday! The food, however, is pretty eh, imo. Very few vegetarian options unless you want pasta. And everything is very pricey for the quality. I paid $15 for a dip and it didn't even come with pita. I was still hungry so ordered some $15 truffle fries. They vaguely reminded me of McDonald's fries. Don't get me wrong - I love McDonald's fries. But maybe not at this type of restaurant for this price. On the whole a fairly nice experience because of the setting. But you could certainly pay the same and enjoy better and more food elsewhere.

The little patio area that's sheltered by greenery with an automatic roof was a fantastic little recluse from the craziness of South Beach - which is funny because someone was getting arrested right outside the restaurant. We ordered a couple of appetizers, meat combo platter, and a shareable dessert. Everything was incredibly delicious, especially the meat platter and the dessert. Service was incredibly friendly and fast. Would definitely come back here again!

I can't say enough about how much I loved this restaurant! The location incredible especially if you're staying at the good time hotel. The service remarkable. Everyone was so kind and welcoming and warm! The ladies at the check in station took photos with enthusiasm for me. They didn't hesitate to make it fun. The food! OMG! The food! I couldn't decide what to order because everything looked incredible. I started with a greek salad. When I went to Greece I felt like pure sunshine was inside the veggies in the salad and here in Miami I had the same experience. I can tell everything was fresh. I followed with the salmon and opted for lemon potatoes. Oh goodness I danced eating each bite! Danced! So flavorful. Perfectly cooked. Well seasoned. Bright, fresh. Beautiful. The cocktail I had which is pictured I unfortunately can not remember the name but it has lychee and maybe you can show the photo if you want to try it. It was so so so good! I had a cocktail to start that came with a little magic moment (I won't ruin it for you! You must experience) and with my meal I had a refreshing crisp glass of white wine it was a Greek wine! Perfection. If I didn't have plans I would've stayed so much longer because the ambiance is so divine. This is ideal to eat alone (I did and felt totally comfortable), a group, a big group, a date, a business meeting-truly any occasion. I'm so glad I saw this restaurant. It's a must visit again for me! After all any chance I get to walk a red carpet into a Grecian paradise I'm taking it!

Such a fun vibe! The staff is so friendly and goes above and beyond to make you happy. Ferdinand the bartender got the party started. Drinks were tasty and the menu items were priced really balanced. I highly recommend!

Only about 8 people here right now. It's a rainy Sunday... even Floridians don't like to brave the rain

Tonight was definitely an off night for Kómma. Most of their staff was let go because of the weather. There was no bartender. Understaffed or no, they still managed to serve me a decent meal. The Keftedes platter was nothing to write home about but it did the job. In fact it was extremely greasy as if it had been dunked in tons of oil. Since this one dish turned out to be "heavy in the stomach" I didn't have room for more food or other dishes. I'd like to come back for their Greek salad or brunch at some point in time when they are fully staffed and at their best. A+ for Decor & Ambiance. Their chairs were extremely comfortable. That's a very welcome difference in restaurant design today.

Our family, party of 8 celebrated my son-in-law's birthday at this restaurant. We made reservations at around 4 for 8pm on a Saturday and all went smoothly. The beautifully decorated arched entrance is accessible from the street corner with hanging colorful mosaic lamps that transported us across the Atlantic to the Mediterranean Sea. The hostess asked if we preferred a rectangular or round table outside, and we chose the round in the middle of the outdoor space. The music was authentic, upbeat and set at a volume that was perfect to enjoy and not interfere with our conversations. The staff was welcoming, the appetizers were exquisite, the food tasty and the desserts divine. For the birthday boy, they added a sparkler which was impressive which was very nice. The restroom in need of a little tlc, is located a bit far from the outdoor sitting area which gave me a chance to take in the well planned interior and vibe. There were some guests seated at tables in the indoor bar area but for the most part it was empty. I assume it was intentional due to the current pandemic protocols. When it was time to pay, our server explained their credit card system was down. Our choices were to leave our cc info to have them run it through later or pay cash. Luckily, we gathered the cash amongst all of us without having to search for an atm. We had a nice experience overall. :) Follow me on Instagram @puravidacoach

Went to Babylon for girls weekend dinner (and birthday celebration). The staff was amazing. Even before they knew we were there for a birthday, they were already adding free elements with a twist of fun: the owner/manager (?) offered us a pop-quiz and if he liked our answers (and of course he did), he offered a free cocktail or dessert or Turkish coffee. In the end, he bought the table a round of drinks and dessert. They sang happy birthday to my girlfriend and the whole patio came alive to sing and clap along. We also ordered a hookah and were not disappointed! Besides the incredibly generous and kind staff, the entire experience was perfect. The food was rich and delicious. The patio was dimly lit and romantic. And while this wasn't a date night, I can only imagine it would be the ideal location if you're and local or a tourist! Thank you from D., A., J.

I had come here a few years ago and remembered that it was a nice outdoor place that was not super touristy in Miami Beach. So I invited all of my friends here for a birthday dinner recently. And it did not disappoint! It's one of the few places in Miami Beach that is not horribly overpriced with a great ambiance and good food. The outside area is very nice. Once it gets dark, there are little twinkling lights. But it is a bit secluded with greenery so you are not right on the street. I was also surprised that there was a belly dancer! She did a great job and the performance was not too long so you could go back to eating food and talking. The food is pretty good. I had a few appetizers. The little cigar rolls and the octopus. The cigar rolls were delicious, especially with the yogurt sauce. The octopus was solid. My friends also enjoyed their dishes. What I did not like as much was that they did not give us an option to order tap water for the table at the beginning, and the bottles of water they have are $7, which you find out once you get the bill. This is pretty typical for Miami Beach, but it still bothers me. They also do include a gratuity on the bill, like most other restaurants in the area. So that is something to keep in mind. Overall, this is a nice place to celebrate a special occasion. And one of the best places at the beach. read more

AMAZING. I do not leave reviews often because I feel that many restaurants are not worthy. That is not the case here. Amazing service: Our waiter was very intelligent about the menu and was very kind and very helpful in choosing delicious selections for us (everything looked so good, we didn't know where to start!). The sommelier was very helpful and kind as well. Outstanding Food: If you want authentic middle eastern food, come here. Everyone will probably tell you that "Byblos" is the place to be. Not true. Because this restaurant is off the beaten path, there is more love put into each recipe. Overall: 10/10 would recommend :) read more

I would of rather go to Nusret for that price or prime italian. They really need to realize what they are offering can be placed for that price for better food. The only good thing about our event was that our server was super adorable and very friendly. Her name was Duy (no idea how to spell it) a smiley girl with giant red curls!

Our go-to place in Miami, with or without a visit to South beach. Great location, so far we have found parking nearby easily- paid street parking. Nice decor both indoors and outdoors, the service has been great each time. IMO, one of the best quality mediterranean restaurants. We always get their shakshuka, babaganoush is good too, cigar rolls were okay- not a fan of cheese pastry overall though- personal choice. The Kofte was great- highly recommend, served with eggplant puree instead of rice which paired really well. Baklava was good and fresh/light, paired well with coffee at end of meal. read more

Very disappointing and horrible. We wanted a Christmas Eve dinner for a large group visiting from New England area. Nothing was available except this restaurant on opentable. So I did a google search and based on the reviews on this site yelp and others it's seems decent. The restaurant website on the Gallary section is very deceiving about how the ambience and the dishes look like. So we were 22 guests. When we arrived we discovered that our tables are in back of the restaurant next to the kitchen and bathroom. We talked to the manager/owner about reseating us in the better part of the restaurant but he refused and he was very rude and unwelcoming. But we we had no other choice since every person in the group showed up. Everything went down hill from there. There was only one server for the 22 guests. So it was very slow and confusing. The food was below average and some dishes were horrible and inedible. Their lentil soup was very bad and very watery as if they added water to make it enough for everyone. So no one eat it. Their appetizers were way below average. Their grilled meat was the worst. Few of us didn't order any main dishes based on their experience with the appetizers. This is the typical tourist trap. Shame on them and shame on Yelp and opentable for allowing this restaurant mange to have a decent reviews. It's very deceiving. Thanks M Has read more

My colleagues and I were attending an event at the Paris Theater next door and decide to grab dinner at the end of the night. While I usually check reviews prior to going to dinner, this restaurant's proximity really won us over. As someone originally from New York & a true, authentic Turkish food lover, this restaurant really lived up to my expectations. The appetizers were great & fresh, with delicious dips. The shepherd salad was don the right way, with all ingredients chopped into small piece.The mixed meat platter was very well seasoned, from the chicken to the kofta kebab, there was nothing to complain about. Living in Brickell, I would definitely consider taking the trip out to the Beach to have a relaxed, unpretentious dinner at Babylon again. Special thanks to Murat & as well as the pleasant hostess,who was also from New York. Both were extremely accommodating & professional. Definitely Recommend. read more

I am very picky when it comes to meat but I tried all of it and especially the chicken was perfect. The owner came and introduced himself, really friendly and family oriented. They had a belly dance show and have live music every 30th of the month. The minus points were the music from the Stereo and the extrem high pricing. On top of that the waiter tried to charge us for things we didn't even have. Also For a place this authentic I would have wished some nice Turkish music from known Turkish singers. Something more happy. I did ask several times but sadly they didn't change it whatsoever which really got me more depressed instead of getting me into a good mood. Sad is also that it was my birthday weekend. read more

When we arrived we were greeted and promptly seated inside at the back wall in a booth. There was another couple to our left and one or two others across the room at other tables.

Our entire meal consisted of listening to them in the phone and talking so loud to each other and their server we could hear every word! This rude and annoying behavior overshadowed the meal and left us very frustrated and annoyed. If you are going to require certain attire (although several guest came in while we were there who had on shorts and flip flops) and charge very high prices, you should have a cell phone policy in place and redirect guest to step outside or leave if they feel the need to FT their family for 20-30 min. We spent well over $200 on a meal for two and it was one of the worst dining experiences we have ever had. The enjoyed the food we ordered except for the French onion soup which I sent back. The Burrata Caprese was fresh but could have used a few more tomatoes and my husband really enjoyed his steak. I chose not to order anything once my soup was returned because we wanted to leave as soon as possible. Over all the service was good and most of the food was too. Unfortunately, there are those who'd have no regard for their environment and those around them which makes others experience negative! The manager and severs were aware of what they were doing too as they walked by a few times and looked at them. But failed to intervene and for that they get two stars.

During a recent visit to Miami, we decided to try Babylon Turkish Restaurant because we read so many good reviews. It definitely met our expectations. The food, service, and overall ambiance were excellent. Because we were a party of four, we decided to share four appetizers: saksuka eggplant, cacik tzatziki (a strained type of yogurt with olive oil & herbs), humus (of course!), and ezme (a mix of parsley, tomatoes, onions, and other spices). I preferred the cacik tzatziki, but my boyfriend and the other couple liked the saksuka eggplant the best. For entrees, I had the tavuk sis chicken shish, my girlfriend had the adana (lamb) kebab, and the guys both ordered the izgara kofte, which are a type of meat ball made with lamb and beef. For dessert, we all share orders of baklava, kadayif (a pistachio filled shredded pastry covered in syrup), and sutlac (a baked rice pudding). We liked them all, but we agreed that the kadayif was a little TOO sweet for our tastes. Overall, for the quality of the food, service, ambiance, and reasonable prices, I definitely would return for dinner. read more

I was at babylon recently and I must say this is a jewel on the beach. From my arrival to depature the service was excellent. I was greeted warmly when I enter the restuarant. Everyone worked as a team to take care of me. I was not just helped by one person alone or I had to wait until my waiter is free from helping someone else. Juan and Umit was excellent oncluding others. Juan was very attentive , he anticipate my needs, he suggest things on the menu and he also very knowledgable about the menu and meals . Juan was very responsive ,efficient and courteous . He also follows up with you to make sure that you have everything you need. He was professional and thorough he takes the time unhurried to explain the menu and its many dishes. Overall, excellent service and food. I had the lamb chops and the kanufa desert . Excellent food and service these are killer ingredients to keep going back. Babylon a jewel on the Beach! Thanks again everyone for such wonderful dinner ... read more

2.5 stars! The outdoor seating is lovely. On a nice evening I could sit here and order a few drinks. Skip the food, all of it. For serving size it's very pricey but worse of all it's completely tasteless. I grew up in NY eating this type of food very regularly and know what the flavors of all these dishes are like, and everything I tasted at Babylon was lackluster. We had the mezze platter on which every item was perfectly bleh and then we had the grilled halloumi which was as inspiring as the mezze platter. I had an Adana kebab and my wife ordered the salmon (not a great choice at a Mediterranean restaurant to begin with) we both had a couple of bites of our entrees and left the rest behind, not even worth taking in a to go bag. Service was a slow but better than I expected. I think the waiter may have been new. There's was nothing wrong that I can fault the place for but as far as food and service there was NOTHING good either. read more

The menu offered a great variety of options, catering to different dietary preferences. Manager Reha's attention to detail and customer service skills were outstanding. He ensured that every guest felt welcomed and attended to, going above and beyond to accommodate special requests. Reha's warm and friendly demeanor created a fantastic atmosphere, making the dining experience even more enjoyable.

The owner is telling the personal to keep Muslims and Black people away, which is ridiculous especially when you're running a Mediteranian business. Racism/Discrimination at it's best! They even tell dark skinned people right at the door that they don't serve Helal food, to keep them from entering in the first place. The food is ridiculously overpriced while you can eat actual authentic Mediterranean food a couple of blocks down for way less and get better service. The kitchen is dirty and the personal is rinsing off the glasses only with water and putting them back for use. This is something the health department should look into especially in times like these while this Covid-19 pandemic is going on. If you want quality food and service for your money, Don't visit this restaurant. read more

Babylon Turkish Restaurant consistently provides great food served by an excellent wait staff in a pleasant setting. My boyfriend and I have dined here several times, and we've brought friends here, too. It's not cheap and some of the dishes take a while to prepare, but you definitely feel rewarded both for your money and your patience. The octopus casserole takes a long time to cook, but it's delicious. My boyfriend and I both like the mixed platter of chicken, lamb, and beef, too. Among other appetizers, this restaurant allows you to order calamari either grilled or fried, which I really appreciate. You also can get fried eggplant. For dessert, I highly recommend the baklava. If you have a BIG sweet tooth, you also might like the kadayif. read more
