A nice lunch today at this new eatery in Wellington. Open now for just three weeks, they do have a nice menu and a service oriented staff. We split a Souvlaki platter which came with a Greek salad and pita. We added a side of Lemon potato wedges. We each started with a bowl of the Greek Lemon rice soup which was good. Or server Daniel was helpful and Senior management was receptive to feedback. They should do well here!

Staff and service at Spiro's are warm and welcoming--they genuinely appreciate their customers, and their attention to detail really stands out. The restaurant itself is very spacious, with a nice bar area in the center that adds to the atmosphere. I had the gyro along with the orzo soup, and both were enjoyable. .

Great atmosphere

It was a great experience and love the atmosphere. We had the opportunity to meet Cristiana and she was lovely along with the owner Julia. They gave us some suggestions and we ordered the spinach pie and pork medallions. The food was delicious and tasty, well worth the visit. A lot of fun talking with everyone and look forward to coming back.

Lemon Chicken soup with rice.

Was very excited to see Spiro's open so close to home. Until now, the only Greek style restaurants were Gyromania (casual Fast food style) and Chris's Taverna (always packed but food is meh). First off, they did s great job decorating this space: looks terrific. Service was extremely friendly and helpful with ordering. I started with the Lemon Chicken soup (I won't even begin to pronounce the Greek nsme) and it was delicious. Followed by the grilled Chicken Platter with lemon potatos, also very good. I don't understand the comment by a previous reviewer about the Tsidiki (sp?) because it was very light and delicious. It all a very good experience and I will be back.

This is the classic gyro!!!!

So glad I was in the area to finally try this place! Inside is extremely clean, even the bathrooms…read moreare spotless. The decor is nice and sleek. Service was awesome, the young man at the counter was very helpful and friendly and he provided awesome recommendations. The food was fresh and delicious. I ordered - Base - 1/2 rice with lentils 1/2 salad. Protein I got the double option, half olive u chicken and half gyro. I added pretty much every topping and I love that they don't up charge for the free options which really works for me since I eat a lot. Both proteins were cooked nicely, flavorful and juicy. All of the veggie toppings were super fresh. The bowl came up to about $17 and it was worth every penny. 5/5. There are a few other locations closer to my home and I really hope they're anywhere as good as this location. Coming here is a no brainer if you like fresh Mediterranean food.

I was visiting my mom in FL and wanted to try a new restaurant that was healthier. I saw that this…read morewas a Mediterranean place and I'm half middle eastern so I grew up with similar foods, so I know what is authentic and what tastes good. So we decided to get Olive U Mediterranean Grill for dinner ordered through uber eats. I ordered their create your own bowl with green falafel (there are two different kinds but most places have the green one), turmeric rice, extra tomatoes, cucumbers, extra pickles, chickpeas, feta cheese, house sauce, tahini, tzatziki, and hummus. Though the veggies were fresh, the food had absolutely NO flavor.... Not even the hummus tasted of anything except chickpeas (there should be some lemon and olive oil for example). While it was healthy and fresh, it having no flavor isn't what I'm used to. I didn't even have more than a few bites. The pickles were ok. My mom ordered the same thing but with the chicken shawarma and rice with lentils. She mentioned the same thing, no flavor despite having the chicken instead. If you know anything about middle eastern or Mediterranean food it NEVER lacks flavor, so this was very disappointing. We also ordered the Greek Fries which has their house sauce, feta cheese and paprika. I would say that despite being a bit soggy (probably due to it being delivered), this was the only menu item we got which had any sort of flavor at all. We ordered the Cilantro Lime Hummus as well, and I really wanted to like this, but unfortunately despite the slightly good flavor from the cilantro and lime combo, it had a distinct waxy aftertaste almost like when your lipstick gets in your food. I'm not sure what would cause this but maybe it just wasn't that fresh? Either way we both were left feeling hungry. I didn't have much to experience as far as service except that they included everything that was ordered in the bag and it was packed well. TLDR: Olive U Mediterranean Grill clearly doesn't love you if they are offering food with absolutely no flavor at all. Also, the cilantro lime hummus was waxy and artificial tasting. Despite the veggies being fresh, and the fries being ok, I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone, especially not for an authentic experience.

And brought guests constantly . The food was always well prepared and at a reasonable price. The owner was always very friendly. BUT I will never again go back to Sofra after my experience last night. Last night I went with a couple of people that I had raved about this restaurant to. The owner, who certainly must've recognized me from the countless times I've eaten there in five years, barely grunted at me and the vibes I got from him were not very welcoming. He seemed really angry about something and was taking it out on his customers. There was only one other table that had customers and this was a Friday night. I found that really odd because other restaurants surrounding Sofra had lots of people sitting outside eating at their restaurants I ordered a falafel plate and others at our table ordered the İskender and another entrée. I practically passed out when I got the bill because I guess I didn't check the prices when I was ordering. The falafel plate, which was basically a spoonful of salad, a spoonful of rice, a few hard burned falafel, soup and a dribbling of tahini was $33. This is obscene. When this restaurant first opened they were charging for the same plate $15 and then they went to $25 after a few years which I thought was pretty high for the food we were getting but $33 is just plain greedy. I won't even do a review on the other two entrées because my party could barely eat them. I now see why there was nobody, literally nobody in this restaurant on a Friday night. And the owner, what happened to him? he used to be such a friendly guy and now he is just an angry man. The waitress never went back to check on us and refill our water after taking our order. Despite only two tables with customers in this restaurant. I read some of the reviews where owner says he hates the fucking country so why doesn't he just leave? There's plenty of really good Mediterranean restaurants that are not going to charge this kind of money for Mediterranean food. Even if the felafel was the best falafel I've ever eaten in my entire life - $33 is crazy. And it was not very good felafel - in fact all the food is mediocre. Where it once was amazing. So my suggestion to the owner is to lower his prices, improve the quality of his food and improve his attitude

No stars Review for Skillets…read more This was a very disappointing experience and a terrible start to our family day. We waited over 45 minutes outside despite there being plenty of empty tables. Our party included two children and three adults. Once seated, we waited another 10 minutes before even getting coffee, and only after asking. The food was poorly prepared and tasteless. * The French toast was advertised as generously dipped in eggs and made with sourdough bread. It was dry, bland, and did not resemble sourdough at all. * The biscuits were hard, and the gravy was unidentifiable and did not resemble southern-style food in any way. * The corned beef hash looked raw and unappetizing and completely ruined our child meal. * The potatoes were absolutely awful. We had planned our day around visiting Lion Country Safari, so after investing nearly two hours between waiting and service, leaving was not an option. We left still hungry and frustrated, needing to find lunch elsewhere but short on time. Our waitress was pleasant and absolutely deserved the 25 percent tip we left her. However, service overall was disorganized. At one point she bumped into our table and did not even realize she was our assigned server. I had to explain that we had been waiting long enough and needed our children order taken immediately. To make matters worse, when we were leaving, a staff member exited the ladies restroom, which smelled terrible, and walked straight out without washing her hands. She passed directly in front of us. Between the excessive wait, poor food quality, lack of attentiveness, and hygiene concerns, this experience was unacceptable. Unfortunately, we will not be returning.
