Braised Lamb Platter (C)
Elita K.

I was hesitant to come here for lunch because $20 seemed a bit steep for a bowl but honey, it was worth every penny. I used to order from Rice in the past when I worked on Brickell but I don't remember it ever being this good. This place knocked it out of the park: immaculately clean, great service, fresh and FLAVORFUL food. Even the value bowl is generous and more than enough to fuel you through your work day. And that braised lamb???! Worth every penny of the upgrade.

Value Bowl
Bisan A.

Rice is one of my favorite fast-casual restaurants. It offers good, flavorful, clean food. This time around, I got the value bowl with a scoop of protein. For my bases, I got basmati rice and greens, a scoop of braised beef, tomato sriracha hummus, feta, and sumac, and some other toppings like onions and cabbage. Everything tasted fresh and was filled with flavor. Nothing else to really say. Great as always!

This is like a chipotle of Mediterranean food but in a good way. Their service is fast and portions are large. You can keep it healthy with the options you choose. Good when you are on the boulevard without wanting to pay the touristy prices. The place is quite roomy with plenty of tables. Restrooms are clean and well maintained. No parking onsite but there are garages near by.

Chicken & Pollo Bowl (Gluten Free)

I walked right into this business and got my order very quickly. Staff were friendly this time. There are many places to sit inside. This is a quick service restaurant. However, you can tell everything is very fresh. So many healthy options. I got the chicken bowl and wow, I'm blown away. It's so tasty. The vibe here is casual but comforting. There are also places to sit outside. The location is great! I'll definitely be back.

I really wish there was a location closer to where I live in Plantation! I was in the area and needed to grab dinner before going home. While browsing food options I saw Rice was nearby in Las Olas and I could place an order online! Parking Tip: I parked at the Las Olas City Centre Garage, and drove to the side of the building closer to E Las Olas Blvd and made my way down the side stairs. Directly across the street is YOLO and just a few feet to the right from the stairwell exit is Rice! To get back to the garage, enter the lobby around the corner and head to the elevators on the right. There is a desk attendant if you get lost. This location is beautiful and well-designed giving it a fresh vibe. My meal was being packed when I walked in and I waited a few minutes which gave me the chance to snap some pics. I got the vegetarian bowl with falafel, roasted veggies and black lentils. It was so satisfying, filling, and delicious. I crave these bowls every so often and I know if there was a location closer to me I would have one at least once a week! Very affordable price as well. If you are looking for an alternative to the typical mixed veg and grain bowl, give Rice a try, I promise you'll love it.

Horrible Do Not recommend for group orders at all! My office did a order almost $500 and not only did they leave out an entire order upon delivery but they falsely advertised the chicken breast and when I went to exchange or get something else they completely denied. I asked for store manager and they said there is NO MANAGEMENT at this location. So the staff is pretty much making their own rules and bias discretion on who/which customers get quality customer service. I'm very disappointed with this place as they are reputable but this location is a flop.

Rice is a nice addition to the area, particularly when you're in the mood for a casual but delicious meal. You order at the counter from a variety of platters, bowls and salads. The build your own bowl options are great--the braised beef was delicious and I really enjoyed the whipped honey feta. I would suggest getting the basic bowl and adding one protein, as it was plenty of food. My husband ordered a platter, and he ended up bringing much of it home. The portions are very large!

5/5 fast casual in Downtown Fort Lauderdale I got here on a Tuesday after work, a time when most restaurants are completely desolate, but even then Rice Mediterranean kitchen felt quite welcoming. As soon as you walk in you can see the menu at the top, which is key for fast casual restaurants to facilitate service. Pick a bowl, a salad, the like. The service was kind and attentive - even though we were interrupting the quiet time at the restaurant they immediately shifted to taking our order. The real kicker is the food. If a fast casual spot can't serve fresh food fast that also quickly leaves an impression it's beyond saving. Rice Mediterranean passes the test by a wide margin with a generous selection of ingredients for every custom bow, alongside serving typical Mediterranean dishes like Falafel, Kubideh, Chenjeh. Their assortment of toppings and sauces is sure to keep you coming back to try all the combinations as well.

Sunny Turned a Disappointing Start Into an Amazing Dining Experience!…read more I have been coming to Sufrat Mediterranean Grill for quite some time, and I've always enjoyed the food and atmosphere. However, today's visit started off on the wrong foot, but thanks to our amazing server, Sunny, the experience completely turned around! When we arrived, the male host seated us at a very small, uncomfortable table, apparently because they were preparing for a larger group that wasn't arriving until later. There was barely enough room to move around comfortably, let alone enjoy a proper meal. I was honestly disappointed and seriously considering walking out. Then Sunny stepped in and saved the day! Sunny came over to see if we had any questions and immediately noticed how uncomfortable we were. Without us even having to ask, he took the initiative to add another table next to ours, giving us much-needed space for our plates, belongings, and a comfortable dining experience. That simple act of thoughtfulness and outstanding customer service completely changed our evening! Sunny's food recommendations were absolutely spot-on. We enjoyed every single dish we ordered. To top it all off, he recommended the pistachio cake, which was absolutely delicious and the perfect ending to our meal! Sunny is a perfect example of what exceptional hospitality and customer service should look like. He paid attention, recognized a problem, took ownership, and found a solution without hesitation. What could have easily turned into a one-star experience became a five-star experience because of one employee who genuinely cared about his guests. To the management at Sufrat Grill: Sunny deserves recognition! Employees like him are the reason customers return, recommend your restaurant, and continue supporting your business. Thank you, Sunny, for going above and beyond. You didn't just serve us a meal; you turned a frustrating situation into a wonderful dining experience. We'll definitely be back, and we'll be asking for Sunny! Thank you

The food was phenomenal as well. We started with hummus that was served with a nice amount of pita bread. It was rich and creamy and balanced nicely with the olive oil drizzled in the center. I ordered the Mojito, which was delicious and refreshing on a hot Florida day. As my main dish, I ordered the beef platter with my sides of Greek salad and Angel rice. I was very impressed with the tenderness of the beef and the flavor of everything. We ended the afternoon with baklava. I enjoyed the flaky texture and crunch of the pistachios. You can't go wrong trying to sufrat when you are craving Mediterranean food.

The first course was included 'picking ' an olive off the olive tree presented tableside. The mango pavlova is worth a trip as it's on star attraction. Excellent food in a fun , playful presentation.

Starting with what I enjoyed most, I thought the lentil soup was fabulous. It was rich and flavorful and tasted like it had a hint of fennel or coriador that I was not expecting. Fantastic dish. The kufta kebab was also very good. The spice profile here too was very interesting. It was different than other kebabs I had, I think had a hit of cardoman which was very prominent and added a wonderful flavor to the meat. The koshari was also very delicious, though it had sautéed, slightly well done onions on top rather than the crispy onions I've had before in koshari. As for what I didn't love, the chicken and beef shawarma were OK, but they really weren't shawarma. They were more like a shawarma seasoned stir fry. I wouldn't order it again and I love shawarma. Finally the falafel had an amazing crispy texture, but was slightly under cooked inside for some reason and not very hot. I do want to take a moment to note that the service here was fantastic. We were greeted warmly and given great service by the staff. Truly outstanding. Overall I'd give Mini Pita a strong 4 stars. Worth checking out and exploring the menu!

I want to give it five stars so badly, and I think they have the potential to get there! The sign out front didn't match the name online, so we circled around trying to figure out if it was the right place. When we got inside, we deduced we should order at the counter, but there was no menu board and only one single menu sitting at the register. I didn't know what some of the menu items were, and there were no descriptions so I had to either google them or cross them off my list. These are all pretty simple fixes that I think would go a long way in the customer experience. I definitely plan to be back, the price for the mouthwatering meal was unbeatable! Hope they can figure out some of the little things to get people in the store and coming back!

The gyro was so flavorful, the tzatziki sauce had the perfect consistency, the spinach rice was OMG, TO DIE FOR, and the warm pita and red potatoes tied the whole platter together perfectly.

We were heading to the Ethos Greek Bistro in Wilton Manors and then realized that they had a…read morerestaurant on Southeast 17th Street, which was much closer to home. So, we went there instead. There is lots of parking. The bistro is not large; it seats about 30 inside and about the same number outside. There were three of us, and we started with calamari and saganaki cheese appetizers. The saganaki was good. The calamari was to die for. It is probably one of the best I have ever eaten. It melted in your mouth, and I loved it so much I already have my next meal at the eatery planned (hummus, ethos salad, and calamari paired with spinach rice). Our server said the restaurant's calamari is from New Zealand. Our friend got a meal from the special spice menu. She chose a hummus and pita appetizer. And for her main entree, pork loin with apricots and chestnuts, served with potatoes and spinach rice. She picked baklava for her dessert. All were included for $25. My husband and I got the gold sample platter from the taste of ethos selections. It included a spread sampler (with four different kinds) with pita. We switched our spinach pie and got grape leaves instead (very lemony and tasty). An ethos salad (with crunchy candied walnuts and apples) accompanied our platter that included lamb chops, kefte, chicken, gyro, potatoes, and spinach rice. It was $39 per person, dessert was not included. But we ordered a baklava and shared it. The baklava had way too much cinnamon and the walnuts were still quite crunchy and not as soft as we like them in that dessert. Our server, Adam, was superbly attentive. We told him there was a peanut allergy at the table and with every item served, he assured us there were no peanuts. (Although it was a bit funny, it also was a bit annoying.) The mediocre baklava and my disappointment of not being able to order my favorite Greek meal, roasted leg of lamb, which is not offered, are the only things that kept the eatery from getting 5 stars. It's a solid 4.5 stars. Yelp needs to start allowing half stars.
