Lamb Burger w/ caramelized onions and a fried (over hard) egg
Ronald S.

I've worked downtown for 10 years and for some reason I have never visited this gem. They have an amazing menu but I decided to try the lamb burger w/ caramelized onion and a egg fried hard. For some reason I can no longer eat a burger without an egg on it. I really enjoyed the restaurant and. It's only about a 5 min walk from where I work. The staff was nice and welcoming. The restaurant is a bit small but it's clean and looked nice. I really enjoyed the lamb burger and also the fries were crispy and delicious as well. I think I'll go back tomorrow to try the whole fish.

Ran across this place randomly. Since there was construction going on around, you would only see this place if you were walking. No one was in the restaurant. They had my favorite Panna water so we were off to a great start. I ordered the traditional greek salad. Straight forward, no complaints. I then had the lamb burger with carmelized onions and fries. Burger was good, fries not so much. I havent went to any greek restaurant that served good fries. Overall I would definitely cone back. Staff was attentive and professional.

It is a small restaurant in downtown Miami that a lot of people from my office recommended but I had no idea it was going to be this good!! I'm a sauce girl but I didn't anticipate the sauce in the chicken gyro was going to be sooo amazing. Typically, one would find a tzaziki sauce in their gyro but this was cream based with some kind of spice, I want to say curry but I can't put my finger on it. Either way, I licked the paper in the end, lol no judgments PLEASE! It's a pretty decent size and I ate all of it including the fries. Btw, did you know that in Greece, they actually put fries in their gyro? I've never been but I always do it and it always takes me to a happy place. It's very clean and though busy, they were welcoming and attentive. I was even offered water as I waited for my food, which took less than 10 minutes by the way. I'm so happy I decided to try this place out, and I will be frequenting much more often!

Lunch at the Pega Grill was delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed the lentil soup and falafel wrap.

This was my first time coming to Pega Grill. It will not be my last but I must say I will not put it past the staff to skimp me in the future as they did today. I ordered the meat gyro wrap with a side of shoe string fries. When I get there at the exact pick up time my food was ready but the young woman that was handing out orders had a difficult time figuring out if the order was mine (I ordered through yelp). I was able to confirm my order through my comments and additions to my order. My issue is that none of my additions or comments were applied. I asked for AND PAID for arugula instead of romaine lettuce. Yet I was given romaine. I also requested the onions on the side. As my picture illustrates, the onions were included. When I opened the bag to check my order I asked for ketchup and was told there was some in there. This is not a big deal but the amount of ketchup in the bag was equivalent to half a ketchup packet squeezed out into a little cup. So I definitely had to ask for more. I didn't open the wrap itself unfortunately though bc I was buying for my boss and didn't want heat to escape. So I didn't see the lettuce or onions. But I did ask that both additions were satisfied and was told they were. This is very disappointing. Little oversights like this make me feel like there are many others making me question if I should return. Aside from that, the food was good. Also, I would suggest poking holes in the containers for fried to ensure they don't get soggy.

When there's already a Greek place as awesome as Stoupsy's downtown, it's a gamble to open a competing place. But that's what Pega Grill has done, and so far, their bet is paying off. Fast service, tasty goods, and an efficient staff makes Pega Grill a welcome addition to the Downtown Miami dining scene. Their gyros come with fries, and while the portions aren't that big, you won't be hungry later. They have a handful of specials each day, so be sure to ask your server about them (though they're very good about telling you about them). I've had the beef & lamb gyro, the Greek salad, and the sampler platter of dips (hummus, tzaziki, taromasalata, and baba ganoush). Everything is fresh and delicious. The pita bread for scooping up the various dips comes out toasty and warm. The Greek salad is authentic, which means no lettuce, and a big hunk of feta cheese on top. The only downside about Pega Grill is that they refuse to split checks or accept more than 2 credit cards. Which is fine when you're going out lunching by yourself or with one other person. Unfortunately for Pega Grill, it means my coworkers and I don't eat there as often as we'd like.

Beef & Lamb Gyro
Claudia J.

Nice place in the downtown area for a quick bite. The place has seating outside and inside, outside on the street, outside in the mall's hallway and inside the restaurant. Seems like the place is visited by regulars, for pick up or eat in. I ordered a Gyro with beef and lamb, they just did not have only lamb. The gyro was so great, it had enough tzaziki, onions, beef, lamb... and I love the Gyro when it has a bit extra sauce!! The gyro came with a portion of french fries, they were crispy and freshly done. A bit salty, but they wre crunchy!!! I mentioned the saltiness of the french fries to the waitress that asked me how was everything, they would have been glad to change them for me!... next time!! they seem to be very customer service oriented! Would definitely go back some other time!!

Just came back from lunch at Pega Grill, and I have a full, happy tummy! My friend loves Greek food, and sometimes we'll grab lunch downtown on her days off. I'd walked by Pega tons of times going to and from work, so I suggested it for our girls lunch date. Service was fantastic, and they made sure we had everything we needed in a timely manner. The menu is small, but has just enough of a variety and some really great options. I order the chicken gyro with their Pega Grill sauce. It was incredible. All of the flavors balanced perfectly. It's served with fries that were pretty tasty and seasoned well. Like Eve C. said, the portions are not huge, but it's just right. I definitely felt full, and I feel like it was a great value for the money. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the baklava. I looooove baklava. At Stoupsy's just a few blocks away, it's incredible and huge for the price. Here at Pega Grill? Two bite sized squares for $4.95. Take off about 2 bucks and I'd be happy with it. Was it the best baklava? No, but it was pretty good, but overpriced for the amount served in combination with it not being stellar. Pega Grill has take out and delivery, so I'll probably end up getting lunch to go from here on days when I work through lunch at my desk...which is most days. Ugh, yay for me.

Exquisite Half-Baked Chicken.  Pega es mega, mega se pega is their slogan.

I finally tried Stoupsy's and now I can officially say that Pega Grill is probably one of the best, if not the best, Greek restaurant in Miami. I decided to come back on Saturday as my plan to try Little Lotus fell apart due to them not being open until 6 on Saturday. It was a few minutes before 4 and although they close at 4, they took us in without a problem. We ordered the dip platter, which contains hummus, tzatziki (one of the best I have had in South Florida), spicy feta dip, and baba ganouj (made with eggplant). It came with soft, warm pita bread in an unusual metallic bucket-like container and was delicious. Next up, was a meat gyro and a half baked chicken. The chicken was a good-sized portion with lemon oregano baked potatoes and a brown sauce on the side to pour over the chicken. The sauce was delicious, the chicken was moist and tender and had a lemon & rosemary glaze on the skin. Remarkably, the meat also had the flavor of rosemary, which was brought out even more by the brown sauce. I have no idea what that sauce contained but it was divine and the perfect accompaniment for the chicken. The potatoes were perfectly cooked and had a delicious oregano flavor to them. The meat gyro came with fries, which were crunchy, and the pita bread wrapped around the meat was thick, as it should be. Inside were generous strips of meat with lettuce and tomato. It was very tasty. For dessert, since we were rushed to eat, we were given almond cake and Greek cookies on the house. Both were excellent. I did take pictures of the meal, but my sweet tooth got the best of me and by the time I remembered that I had forgotten to take pictures of the dessert, I had already devoured half of it. The manager informed me that they will be delivering and opening for dinner in a week or 2, I think he said that on the weekdays they would stay open until 9:30, and Friday and Saturday until 11. I'm so happy knowing I can now get Greek food for dinner (assuming they will come out to the Midtown/Arsht area). Please, oh please deliver to me!

Friday's special: Moussakas
Cory P.

Our group was seated almost as soon as we entered. A hostess also brought the specials board to our table while we were deciding what to eat! Our group for the most part ordered the same things--the moussakas, which is angus lean ground beef, grilled eggplant and light bechamel sauce, and the lamb gyro (I wasn't able to get a picture of that). The service was on point and our water cups never reached below half glass. The wait time for our food also didn't take long and when the food arrived we were happy campers. The plating for the gyros was wrapped in paper and served in a silver tray. My friends were so hungry they each took a bite before I could even take a picture! I asked them how each of them liked it, and they all just nodded in approval being that their mouths were stuffed. As for the moussakas, that was delicious as well. It was the Friday's special. I love eggplant and that paired with ground beef worked well together. The top layer acted as a starch and the dish as a whole reminded me somewhat of lasagna (I don't know much about Greek food, so I apologize if I sound insensitive). But with that being said the dish was a satisfying each layer complimenting each other. The salad was also refreshing. Such a nice lunch service!

Food is great. Reasonable prices which is becoming less frequent in Miami. Service is done politely and professionally as well.

Mandolin Aegean Bistro was high on our list mainly because the whole vibe feels like the closest…read morething to actually being in Santorini. We went to Santorini for our honeymoon and my husband and I were celebrating our 16th anniversary. Reservations are hard to get here, especially on the weekend. Luckily I have Gold Status with OpenTable through work and was able to get on the Priority Notify list where I would be the first to know when tables open up on my desired date/time. And that's how we snagged this reservation on OpenTable on a busy Saturday on our actual anniversary. Woot woot!!! First off, this spot is ALL THE FEELS!!! So beautiful and absolutely charming. Just like Santorini. When we arrived, we checked in and only waited for maybe 10 minutes until they sat us. Meanwhile, there were many people waiting. When our table was ready, the hostess seated us to this cute little two top towards the back area, very intimate. For our anniversary, they gave us complimentary champagne. Very cool. Matias was our server and he was wonderful. Informative, attentive and friendly. They had small menu with specials for the day along with their regular menu. Below is everything we ordered: * Karpouzi Fresco $21 * Baked Feta $18 * Grilled Grouper with Orzo $42 * Grilled Lamb Chops $61 Got the Karpouzi Fresco with watermelon, mint, prosecco. The cocktail was perfect for the ambiance and so refreshing. Baked Feta was ridonkulously good with heirloom tomatoes with greek oregano and sumac. So fresh with lots of flavor and served with warm bread right out of the oven. Dinner was at another level and incredibly generous portions but also ELITE!!! Grilled Grouper with orzo was nice and the small shrimp was a nice surprise, funny enough when this dish came out, the grouper was hidden under the orzo and we thought they brought out the wrong dish. That was odd. Grilled Lamb Chops were cooked on point and so juicy with good flavor. Everything was just delicious! We opted not to have desserts here as we wanted to walk around Miami and find another spot for dessert. All in all, we had a lovely anniversary dinner and this place was perfect. So happy we finally got to come here. It's just as charming as the photos show. If you want a small piece of Greece, come here. I don't think you'll be disappointed. It has all the Santorini vibes!

We visited Mandolin during our stay in Miami because we love Mediterranean cuisine, and overall, it…read morewas a solid experience. For appetizers, we ordered the Ali Nazik and Eggplant Carpaccio. The Ali Nazik was phenomenal. We were given a side of bread, which paired really well with the dish. The lamb was packed with flavor, and the smoked eggplant yogurt was fire. The two complemented each other perfectly. The Eggplant Carpaccio was good as well. I will say, though, that if you aren't a fan of dishes with a heavy vinegar flavor, this may not be for you. I'd also be curious to see how this dish would taste served warm. For our entree, we ordered the Beef Souvlaki, which came with six skewers of filet mignon. The beef was perfectly cooked and very tender, so no complaints there. However, the rest of the dish didn't really stand out to me. The fries were decent, but nothing crazy. As a first-time visitor, I also feel like this probably wasn't the best dish to order if you want to get a full sense of what the restaurant has to offer. One of my biggest disappointments was that the restaurant primarily had outdoor seating. Maybe it was just the night we went, but it was extremely hot and humid, and the fans in our area weren't cutting it. It was also very dark, making it difficult to see the menus and even our food. I think better lighting, especially toward the front of the restaurant, would make a big difference. The food came out very quickly, which we appreciated. I do wish our server had been a little more helpful, though. We wanted to learn more about the menu and were hoping for some guidance and recommendations, but he didn't really guide us through the menu the way I had hoped. Overall, Mandolin was a solid experience, and the Ali Nazik in particular was a standout. I'd be interested in coming back and trying some of their other dishes to get a better feel for what the restaurant does best.
