We originally stopped at Flames for an early dinner as we were attracted to all the good reviews…read more The restaurant was not busy when we arrived around 5p but filled up a bit more as we dined. We appreciated the interior of this restaurant being noticeably brighter compared to the other location in Vero, which is too dark. This Melbourne location seemed clean with an open kitchen to see the action. We started off ordering a hummus for the table. A couple of the plates they brought out looked dirty and unwashed (yikes!). Also, the pitas were not warm so we sent those back as well. Not off to a good start. Our server Donna was great though, and was fast, helpful and informative. Our orders of tenderloin and chicken kebobs were ok, the steak was a bit chewy. Entrees came with a house salad with lemon vinaigrette, veggies, rice and a bit of hummus.. those were good. I've had better Mediterranean so not sure if I'd return, especially with the dirty dishes. This just wasn't what I was hoping for, but it's slim pickings if you're looking for good restaurants around this area.

They even have a few parking spaces out front, which is convenient. I ordered the lamb gyro, and it was absolutely delicious. The bread was soft and fresh, the tzatziki sauce had just the right tang, and the portion was generous. Everything about it was spot on. As a nice surprise, the chef sent out a sample of their spicy potatoes and they were excellent! Crispy, perfectly seasoned, and a great complement to the meal. If you're in the mood for a fantastic gyro with authentic flavor and friendly service, I highly recommend Lily's Mediterranean Grill.

Headline: $18 for a Veggie Sandwich? Overpriced, Authentic in Name Only, Where is the beef?!!…read more Save your money and check your food before you pay. I paid over $18 for a Shish Kafta sandwich that was basically all bread and garnish. I'm not exaggerating--there was barely a morsel of meat in every bite. It felt like a total rip-off!!! As someone who has worked in Middle Eastern kitchens for years, this was a massive letdown. Red flags from the start: the waitress claimed Shish Taouk (tawook) is the "fastest" item (proper chicken takes time!), and the cook wasn't even middle eastern and clearly had no idea what he was doing. The Tabbouli arrived dry and unseasoned, no lemon juice or even wedges??? I ordered the Shish Kafta ($18+), and it was an embarrassment. There was so little meat it was practically a salad wrap. When you pay nearly $20 for a sandwich, you expect a proper protein portion, not a "hint" of Kafta. No lemon, no napkins, no utensils, no attention to detail. This place relies on the name of the food without understanding the food combining principles of the recipe. Check your bag before you leave, or better yet, go elsewhere. The only thing that seemed authentic about this place is that the owner is arabic.

I am excited to come back to try more. The ambiance is really cute I like how you can see the chefs in the first room. If thats not your speed they have a second room that is separate.

Chef Toni is absolutely amazing. She is the owner and chef. I am beyond impressed. This is a hidden…read moregem for sure. We each got a glass of wine, and Toni basically gave us a whole tasting of Lebanese wines. She is extremely knowledgeable about wine in general. The food was next level. I have never had middle eastern food but this was a great introduction. The only minus is that this place is NOT kid friendly, and you absolutely must call ahead and get a reservation. Chef Toni was actively turning people away who did not have a reservation because she simply cannot fit more guests into her restaurant. There are no kids menus, and I don't even think there are high chairs. Toni did try to accommodate as best as she could- she made our entrees shareable for our toddler and she made sure he had extra pita bread! Chef Toni offers a "chefs table" experience, starting at $95/person, chef Toni will ask you some questions and curate a menu specific to your desires / dietary needs. We stumbled upon this place by happenstance but we will absolutely be returning. See Chef Toni featured on Food Network!

She says they are the best in town. AND AND the sorrel is the best i have ever have and that includes in Jamaica but i don't like it with that strong bitter ginger taste. The people who own it ( a family business) are nice and funny and such good cooks. Zion the cook can lay down the food!! I recommend trying the food what can it hurt. I am SURE once u try it u will be hooked. It's not a cheap run it for a sandwich kind of place. It's good homemade made to order food. DELICIOUS!!!
