As we walked by Safron, the smells and aroma with the lit up menu was what drove us right in. It's a very small hole in the wall, more for takeout, but they have a few tables and chairs outside that make the perfect people watching while you eat, that's free entertainment! We ordered the falafel plate to share and it was plenty. There's rice was absolutely delicious and the falafel were made on the spot served perfectly warm and crispy. Pro tip: ask for their house made hot sauce, it will rewire your brain. That was the perfect touch to our platter. Next time would LOVE to order the falafel wrap which comes with fries. Great little spot for authentic Mediterranean cuisine with bold, delicious and fresh flavors.

The sandwiches use pita bread and the wraps use tortillas. I got mine with pita, which was nice and soft. Tithe sandwich had bite-sized lamb chunks, which were very good and seasoned well. The fries are a "pass" for me. I don't like bartered fries. The Greek salad was a Greek salad, which is what I expected and wanted, so no complaints! Walking distance from my hotel, friendly staff. It's small inside with o my one table, so you'll sit outside if you stay. I waited inside for my food.

We were sat inside near the bar/kitchen area. The restaurant overall had a very quaint vibe, close seating and bright vibrant decor. Yellow was a primary color through most of the decor. I really loved the tree aesthetic that looked like an old tree that was growing from the corners of the rooms up the wall and across the ceiling. I wasn't able to catch our server's name however they were very well knowledgeable and gave great recommendations. We decided to do several apps versus getting individual meals as this restaurants theme is to have shareable plates. So many dishes, got the French and Turkish oven pita. Both were good and had different highlights. Loved the gold scissors provided to cut strips for sharing. Classic hummus which had to have been the smoothest hummus I've ever had. Zucchini Latkes were one of my favorite along with the Cauliflower. The seasoning on this was amazing, a bit sweet, and crispy outside. Crispy artichoke I could have done without. It was kinda like eating rice paper, odd texture. Had to try the baklava for dessert along with the pistachio cheesecake and the vanilla, mango and Nutella gelato. Nutella was my favorite. I'd keep on the short list next time I'm in the area.

We arrived about 9pm on a Friday night and were seated immediately. It was a perfect April evening in So Flo. The decor is modern and trendy. Our waiter was friendly and helpful. We ordered our food and were told that the food comes out as its ready. So basically, don't expect order...lol. It worked out fine though, gratefully. We had the Humnus (tasty and fresh but a bit too creamy for two out of the three us at the tabel) with Laffa (served hot, it was yummy), Morrocan Cigars (yummy and good for at least two people), the Chicken Shawarma (which is dark meat and is seasoned perfectly) with grilled veggies (that tasted just a little bit too smoky), and the Harissa Honey Salmon with Greek Lemon Potatoes (they were super lemony but thats been par for the course at all of the Greek places I've ever been to). All of the food was well made and tasted delectable. We saw some delicious looking platters pass our table. The Crispy Chicken Shnitzel is on my radar for the next time I visit.

Fresh, flavorful, and thoughtfully prepared. You can tell the kitchen takes pride in what they serve. Dish after dish arrived and somehow it kept getting better. Service was equally strong. Attentive. Professional. The team made sure everything flowed smoothly without ever feeling rushed. The drinks were outstanding as well. Great cocktails, well balanced, and crafted the right way. A special note about the General Manager, Martin. He runs a great operation and you can feel it the moment you walk in. Engaged with guests. Present. Making sure everyone is having a great experience. Great food. Great drinks. Excellent service. I highly recommend AVIV and look forward to coming back.

We came on a Sunday evening, and surprisingly, the place was completely empty--not a single customer inside. Honestly, I would have left, but my husband was too hungry. We both ordered the "Delight Mix," which is supposed to be a variety of meats. Unfortunately, the meat didn't even taste like meat, and everything was covered in what seemed like barbecue sauce. That was especially disappointing because when you think of Middle Eastern cuisine, those kinds of sauces just aren't typical or authentic. Overall, it was a very underwhelming experience.

The ambiance was very welcoming, with Turkish music, but not too loud. The decor is very nice. The whole place smelled amazing and made us even hungrier. The food was amazing. We had never had Turkish food before but it has a very Mediterranean feel. We shared a sampler of the dips that came with delicious peda bread, and also shared a tenderloin beef shish kebab which came with orzo pilaf rice and grilled tomatoes and sliced onions. Everything was so delicious! The service was impeccable which is not easy to find on the beach. We also tried the Turkish beer. It felt like very good value for the food and the whole experience. We live in the neighborhood and will definitely be back.

From start to finish, every part of the experience felt elevated, exciting, and so well done that we loved it so much, we immediately decided to come back for the Easter Day buffet and wow, it did not disappoint. The atmosphere is unmatched, the food was incredible, and every space has its own perfect vibe while still feeling cohesive and luxurious. What really made it stand out though was the service. The manager personally checked on us multiple times to make sure we were fully taken care of, which made us feel so valued as guests. On top of that, we were even surprised with drinks on the house, which was such an unexpected and thoughtful touch. MILA isn't just dinner, it's a full experience. Whether you're there for the restaurant, drinks, brunch, or a night out, they absolutely know how to deliver on every level. Easily one of the most memorable spots in Miami.

We were whisked inside to the intimate, dimly lit interior with a DJ table tastefully tucked away in the back of the space. Service was welcoming but overall, not quite as warm and attentive as I've experienced at other places in town. We started off with the Turkish Manti Dumplings, which were the standout of the night. The complexity yet restraint of flavor, balancing indescribable buttery, roasted, earthy notes with a touch of umami and subtle tanginess from the yogurt. The Mezze Sampler was a nice option for trying three of the dips. All very tasty, but I've had slightly better elsewhere. The Sweet Jeweled rice was the other standout with flavor and textural variety that made each bite pop. I found the Roasted Brussels Sprouts undercooked and lacking the same level of flavor as the other plates. The weakest dish of the evening. The Grilled Whole Bronzino got top marks from the meat eaters at the table. Overall, 4/5 stars for a delicious meal but with tough competition around town limiting my ability to hit that 5.
