I returned to this restaurant after a few years (previous review below) - and it's still so great!…read more This time around to my surprise they expanded - I was introduced to a new floor plan, decor, and staff, all were incredible! The restaurant is now two floors, has different dining seating, and is beautifully decorated, which makes you feel like you've been transported to Greece. The food was a hit this time around as well- I especially enjoyed the moussaka!

And I'm Greek, so…read moreyou can take my word for it ;) While it may seem slightly off the beaten path right off Flagler, it's very conveniently located by the Knight Center metro stop and a very easy walk from the bridge. Also, the atmosphere they've created both indoors and outdoors really draws you in: beautiful foliage, gorgeous decor, and inviting decor. They play amazing Greek music to set the mood at a very reasonable volume so you can still hear your party. I've been for lunch during Miami spice and recently for dinner. Everything I've had was delicious with tons of flavor and huge portions. Both times I took enough leftovers for another meal! I especially love their zucchini fritters and their spread plate. All their spreads are so fresh and flavorful but their hummus especially was soo good. My husband and I shared the meat platter for two for dinner and enjoyed everything on it - the loukaniko was especially delicious! For dessert, you can't miss the galatoboureko, a sweet custard dessert with the flaky phyllo dough you know and love from baklava. Service was fast and friendly. Highly recommend for a lunch date or dinner date and it's super versatile: great for friends, families or romantic dates. Don't miss this beautiful restaurant in downtown!

Overall the staff was very attentive & accommodating with our needs. From the moment we walked in & the moment we walked out there was nothing but friendly faces. Came here after baby girl's graduation from the U & took advantage of their Miami Spice Menu along w/a few items from their regular menu. You cannot go wrong & don't let the pick two cold & pick one hot item options foo you! It was plate after plate after plate of good food! So much was taken home! Also, go for their pitcher of sangria w/the white wine! Sooooo very refreshing considering the hot days of summer here in Miami. Now it is Wynwood & parking is hit or miss depending on when you go but they do have a valet parking option in case you would like to use them w/ease.

We were loyal guests of this restaurant for almost 3 years, which makes this experience especially…read moreupsetting. During our last visit, an expensive black Prada bag disappeared inside the restaurant. At first, the General Manager, CECILIA , confirmed that we arrived with the bag and stated they were reviewing all camera footage. However, despite multiple requests, we were never shown the arrival footage or provided clear evidence proving what happened to the bag. The communication became increasingly contradictory, and instead of transparency and professional assistance, we were eventually accused of acting "fraudulently" and formally trespassed from the property. What shocked us most was not only the disappearance of a valuable personal item, but the way loyal customers were treated afterward: no transparency, no proper cooperation, no accountability, and accusations without clear proof. We remained respectful throughout the entire process and simply asked for clear confirmation regarding the footage. Instead, the situation escalated into accusations and threats of trespassing. If personal belongings can disappear inside a restaurant and management responds this way, guests should seriously think twice before leaving valuables there. At this point, we sincerely hope the restaurant owner or upper management reviews this situation carefully, conducts a proper internal investigation into how this matter was handled, and contacts us directly in hopes of reaching a fair resolution regarding both the significant financial loss and the emotional distress we experienced as a result of this situation and the unfounded accusations made against us. We are still open to direct communication with the restaurant owner or upper management in hopes of resolving this situation professionally and fairly.

A true classic. Consistently exceptional Greek food and one of those places that never disappoints…read more They have, without question, the best Greek salad I've ever had, along with some of the best scallops I've ever tasted. What stands out most is how consistent the quality is every single time we visit. The service is always impeccable, with the staff genuinely going above and beyond to make the experience special. The atmosphere feels refined and upscale without ever feeling overly formal or stuffy, which makes it perfect for both a casual dinner and a special night out. One of my favorite touches is being able to select your seafood directly from the display before ordering. Everything is incredibly fresh, and you can truly taste the difference. Some of my personal favorites are, of course, the scallops, the Greek salad, the dips, and the lobster pasta. Every dish feels thoughtfully prepared and full of flavor.

I came here with some friends for Happy Hour and absolutely had a blast. We were there from 5 PM to…read more8:30 PM and did not feel rushed. Even after paying, the staff continued to make sure we had water and asked if we needed anything else. This small gesture meant a lot. Sufrat has a great happy hour menu that ends at 6 PM. I tried the Moroccan Mojito, which was so refreshing. To eat, we tried the Shawarma Sushi and $1 chicken wing. The Shawarma Sushi name can be a bit misleading. It a wrap that was cut in form of sushi. It was good. I was hesitant about ordering chicken wings but I'm so glad we did because they were so delicious and crispy. They may have been the best chicken wing I've had. The service was excellent. I accidentally dropped my cocktail and they immediately cleaned it up and moved us to another clean table. I apologized for dropping it but not once did they made me feel bad about it. Instead, one of the staff stated it was an indication of having a great time. They also replaced my drink at no extra cost. A guy, who I assumed was the manager or owner, also passed by our table and ensured we were enjoying our time. Our server mistakenly brought me the wrong drink that I ordered, but I did not mind it because I actually loved the Moroccan Mojito and instead ordered another one. I also loved how they have copper cups because it makes water taste so much better. Their attention to small details like that makes the difference. Overall, I felt so welcomed and definitely have to return for more chicken wings.

We ordered the beef kabobs, which were cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Unfortunately, the ribeye steak was a major disappointment. We ordered it medium well, but it came out extremely overcooked, dry, and tough, with hard charred pieces on the outside. It was clear that steak is probably not their specialty. That said, we would still recommend this restaurant for the atmosphere, service, and many of the other menu items -- just skip the steaks.

My husband and I had such a cute little date night at Calista one evening! We were there on a…read moreMonday evening (pretty early) and practically had the place to ourselves, so we opted to eat outside. We started with the halloumi, the trio of their dips, and the greek salad. YUM YUM YUM. The trio dip was delicious and the halloumi was sweet, salty and came with a great dipping sauce. For our entree, we split the scallops with lentils and some rice. Everything was truly delicious, fresh, and so flavorful. Service was fantastic - attentive but we never felt rushed or pushed out.

Wanted to venture out and try something new and Calista was the selection (thank you InKind). The…read morefood was delicious, fresh and different from other Greek restaurant experiences I've had. Started with a trio of dips and phyllo wrapped feta with honey and sesame seeds. Each had their own unique flavor profiles. We then proceeded to the butterflied Branzino and lemon potatoes. I will say that these have been the best lemon potatoes I've ever had. The fish was cooked well, but it would've benefited from more lemon, perhaps the sauce from the potatoes. Other than a few more bones in the fish than I'd prefer, it was very nice. The service was great and the team worked together very well. Our water glass was always full and new plates and cutlery were provided between courses. Will definitely be back.

Amazing Service, Easily the best food I've had at Hollywood beach!…read more The servers were very nice and the food arrived quickly. I sat in the outside area and the view was beautiful, especially at sunset. The inside seemed to be bustling with livelihood. Amazing place to catch a game or just enjoy a delicious dinner with family. Definitely choose outdoor area by the canal for a more relaxing atmosphere.

Went here for my birthday celebration because I wanted a different dinner!…read more EVERY SINGLE DISH we had was AMAZING. I don't say this lightly. I would rate the FOOD 10 stars if it was possible. The calamari, Greek salad, chicken kebab, steak kebab, shrimp appetizer, and drinks were out of this world phenomenal. Someone I was with also mentioned that the roast chicken is the best roast chicken they have ever had in their lives. As for the ambience, if you choose to be inside during the bellydancing show- be prepared to be overstimulated and not be able to hear anything that your table was saying to you. Make sure you're in the mood for extremely loud music and chaos all over. if you're in the headspace, it's a great time! If you're not in the mood for the madness, eat outside! I literally can't wait to go back to this restaurant... PS obviously beach parking can be complicated but they have valet for five bucks, which is really helpful!
