    Imam Biyaldi eggplant dish. This was insanely good and the best surprise
    Deebaa S.

    Omg this place is one of one, my fave restaurant of all time! We sprang for the five course dinner experience. Each course was heavenly! The service was excellent, very helpful for any questions we had and for wine recommendations. The chef is top notch. This is a fancy restaurant in a five star hotel with a very nice, spacious, comfortable dining area and a super beautiful patio. I was beyond impressed. Went here for my bf's special bday dinner while on vacation.

    Baklava cheesecake

    Cute, but not at the level of what I expect at The Ritz Carlton. The tapas were just ok. I liked the Greek salad (not pictured) but thankfully the baklava cheesecake saved the day! This was a balanced, fresh & unique dessert. I tried it at the recommendation of Monroe Steele on YouTube. Customer service was slow and not 5 star, perhaps given automatic gratuity.

    Located in the beautiful ritz at the end of Lincoln road. This Jose Andres restaurant lives up to the brand. Well trained staff, beautiful interior, and nice Mediterranean food. We came for the Miami spice and it didn't disappoint. The serving sizes were generous. I enjoyed the starter salad and shrimp dish the most. The olive oil cake was a nice treat at the end! I enjoyed the hummus and puffy, fresh bread that came with it too. Valet parking or street. There are also garages not too far away.

    The "waterproof" fabric on the outdoor furniture at this restaurant in the Ritz was stained. But, other than that the aesthetics here were very nice! The staff was helpful and attentive. We had a great time overall and would recommend to anyone staying at the hotel or passing by who wants drinks and apps. The drinks here are really good! Compliments to the bartender! We ordered: 1.) Hpiti spread which was 5 stars, full of fresh red pepper, cheesy and delicious. It was served with fresh made pita bread. The pita bread was fluffy, light and yummy 2.) The beet salad was just want we needed! The beets weren't over dressed which made them desirable to bite into because their freshness was preserved. The quantity of salad was bountiful which made the dish easy to share. 3.) We also ordered the dressed fries. The fries were salted to perfection. My only complaint here would be that the labneh dipping sauce was dressed on the fries instead. But, this dish was still yummy. I think if the price was lowered it would make this dish more popular. For drinks we ordered carajillos (Mexican coffee martinis) and the zatar margarita (with mezcal). The drinks were SO delicious. The bartender needs a raise. Thanks for having us!!

    5/5 service - very friendly staff Food was super solid but at the same time, I was not wowe. Went in with several people so we tried a bit of everything. Tried the hummus, labneh, fattoush, tabbouleh, falafel, halloumi pide (least favorite- wished there was more halloumi), sea scallops (strong seafood smell but was good), celebration rice (favorite because of the combination of flavors and texture), kebab platter(one of the lamb kebabs was super gamey and tough but the rest were good)

    We had lunch today and our server. Stephanie was amazing.. She took time to talk with us and offered us suggestions on different foods to try. She helped us celebrate my brother's birthday in the most amazing way thank you Stephanie. We love you.

    Wow wow. My husband and I had a phenomenal meal here after my event. Everything from ambiance, service, and food made it great - and pricing made it even BETTER. A multi-course meal like we had here would be prob cost 3x more in Tampa Bay too (where we are based), which is also why we came out so happy. Service, just impeccable. Gotta start there. Truly felt like I was back to the Mediterranean. Great recommendations and always attentive to our needs without being overbearing. A hard balance to strike. Food and drinks, oh my. Delicious. We had the lamb Barahat ((lamb, tabouleh, hummus plate)), kibbeh, soujuk pide, Turkish coffee cake, the Sidecar to Tangier cocktail. Everything was phenomenal. Fresh, well-seasoned; juicy where needed and crunchy where needed. We could repeat that order whenever we crave Mediterranean food over and over and be so happy and satisfied every time. Chef José Andrés food never disappoints me. This was another hit for us!

    Salmon wrap
    Kathleen A.

    The sea scallops with dill sauce were absolutely to die for--I could've eaten a whole plate of just those! I started with the fattoush salad, which was light and refreshing. For my entrée, I had the Salmon Durum, a marinated salmon wrap that was good, but the scallops definitely stole the show. The ambiance was lovely with a nice view of the courtyard, and the service was expeditious and attentive.

    Baba Ghannouge

    Located in the Ritz-Carlton hotel in South Beach, it's a nice interior with many outdoor seatings overlooking the pool. Not as vibrant as their original location in Washington DC though - the DC location has lots of energy, which this was lacking. We participated in the Miami Spice dinner menu which is priced at $60 per person. You get five courses per person. We ordered two to share between three people. It was plenty of food. If it's your first time dining at Zaytina, I highly recommend giving their Miami Spice menu a try as it has most of their popular dishes such as Hommus, Baba Ghannouge, Garides Me Anitho, Shish Taouk, Adana Kebab and Seared Salmon. I saw they have a breakfast buffet for $55, will have to try that next time I am in the area. Be interested to see how that is. Service for the most part was fast and friendly.

    August is the best month in Miami in my opinion as it is when Miami Spa Month and Miami Spice overlap. I took advantage of a great spa month deal and headed over to the Ritz-Carlton. After great service we were hungry and made our way over to Zaytinya. Full disclosure, I had not heard of this restaurant before but I saw it was Mediterranean and we all enjoy that kind of food. The miami spice menu has a lot of great options and these are full portion sizes. It was myself and 2 other friends so we decided to try a little bit of everything. They also had a great deal with the miami spice lunch of $10 zataar margaritas. The food was great. The hot puffy pitas, the dips were so so good. Babaganoush is usually my absolute fav and this one was really good but the labneh was probably one of the best I have ever had. The roasted eggplant, med salad, chicken, well just everything was yummy. Our server came around frequently to check on us and refresh our glasses. Great experience and great value for the amount of food you get. I have already recommended this miami spice deal to my friends and may come back before the end is September!

    Shrimp..my GF loved it!

    Start to finish this place was amazing. I am a vegetarian and its so hard to find a great meal. This place provided a first fine dining experience that left me and my GF wanting more. I so wish we lived near a location because I would be there every week. The Drinks were great, the breads were out of this world. Do not stop and think just GO!!!

    Went to try their tasting menu with wine pairing, the food was excellent and the wines very good too. Lots of different dishes, the only one I did not like was the Greek yogurt with apricot, everything else was really good. Being a tasting menu I would expected smaller portion but instead it was a lot, even too much. I would definitely go back for the food experience, but not for the ambiance, the decor of the restaurant is very boring, it looks like any ordinary restaurant in a hotel where you go for breakfast, zero personality. They should have done a better job in decorating, given it is a Mediterranean/middle eastern restaurant, why not have the decor to match the cuisine they serve? It is not just about the food, we also want the experience.

    Galatopita dessert. Super light and unique. View of Ritz Carlton pool is a bonus.

    Zaytinya is fabulous. I saw that Jose Andres was opening up this new spot at the Ritz Carlton South Beach. They opened around December 2023 and it's been on my list. Love Greek food but then you add the Lebanese and Turkish flavors and we definitely needed to try this place. We were working in South Beach and trying to figure out where to eat for dinner. Zaytinya was around the corner and bonus that it was on the inKind app as a participating restaurant. Score! If you haven't discovered inKind yet, it's pretty awesome. Although it's limited to certain participating restaurants, you pay a monthly $9.99 fee, but you get discounted offers to some wonderful restaurants and on top of that, you get a percentage back on your spendings to use at a later time. We love to go out to eat so this is a perk. Zaytinya is located on the second floor inside the Ritz Carlton South Beach, on top of the main lobby area. The dishes are served tapas style, small plates. The interior dining area is a little more formal so we decided to sit on the patio. Their patio is very garden vibes and modern. Our server was Yanina and she was fabulous, super sweet and helpful with the menu options and very attentive. We ordered the smoked beet salad, seared scallops, bone marrow kibbeh and the galatopita for dessert. The smokes beet salad is absolute perfection! We took one bite and decided it was probably one of our favorite salads ever. All the flavors combined come together nicely. The salad has smoked beets, arugula, feta, pickled onions, clementine, oranges, pomegranate and roasted pistachio. Great flavors and great texture. The dressing is a lemon vinaigrette which I asked about and they said it was olive oil, honey and lemon. That's it. Amazing. The scallops were delicious and tasty. Grilled lamb chops were cooked perfectly at a medium rare temperature and super juicy and flavorful. The sauce served with the lamb chops was similar to a tzatziki sauce with Greek yogurt, cucumbers, and dill. when the bone marrow dish came out, we didn't know what it was. Lol. We saw was bone marrow and we obviously didn't read the rest of the menu item. It was a bone marrow kibbeh. The flavors were just ok, but you could taste the bone marrow and that was pretty good. Kind of wish we ordered the octopus as that is always a good idea. Well, next time. This experience was wonderful. We got to sit on the patio with a view of the Ritz Carlton pool, which was nice. Service was awesome, food was excellent in the vibe was nice. Would love to come back and try some of the other men items.

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.

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.

Lira Beirut celebrates this through its food, decor and service. The whole vibe of the place seems extracted from a cool corner of Beirut with beautiful retro-cool artwork that is colorful, happy and sophisticated. From graphic prints, to black and white photos and architectural studies, it gives you a sense of a culture that takes the best of the middle east and cosmopolitan worlds. That sets the stage for the food served here. This is not a watered-down shawarma spot to pacify over-served revelers. It's a place to meet real foodie friends who appreciate authenticity and carefully prepared dishes in an elevated way. I haven't had a chance to go to the Middle East, but I can tell from the deft use of spices, heat and technique that their intention is to share the best from their food memory of the old country. I've gone on a few occasion and really enjoyed the fattoush salad, the labneh mtwame, the muhammara, the chicken shawarma plate and the kafta. Many of the dishes come with the crispiest, most addictive fries I've had, gorgeous savory rice and a heap of fresh, fragrant herbs. Even the wine list is pretty nice, and I've had the well priced Sauvignon Blanc and the Pouilly Fuisse. I wished the location were better for us and for them. It could use a more visible location where nice traffic goes by it. Since it's at the edge of Wynwood where it borders with the slowly gentrifying Overtown, it could take a while before its riches are recognized. I can't wait to go back for happy hour again, and I long to see the day when this becomes an awesome neighborhood hangout as they build more apartment buildings in the area that can house people who will appreciate all that Lira Beirut offers.

For context, I worked in fine dining in New York and Miami for almost 20 years, so I notice the details immediately, hospitality, management presence, the energy of a room. You can usually tell pretty quickly what kind of operation you're dealing with. We were a party of five. I arrived with my four-year-old son and was greeted warmly by the hostess. That warmth ended instantly. Standing directly behind her were two managers in suits blocking the main entrance. Both looked straight at me and my child and said absolutely nothing. No hello, no smile, no acknowledgment. Anyone in hospitality knows that moment sets the tone. As an Arab woman who grew up around a culture where hospitality is everything, it was already a bad sign. We were seated outside and the vibe stayed cold. Unfortunately, the food matched it. We ordered a lot because I genuinely wanted to give the kitchen a fair shot. I grew up eating Lebanese food and what stood out most was the lack of soul. Everything felt flat, like it needed salt, lemon, brightness, that warm Mediterranean seasoning Lebanese food is known for. The tabouli was especially shocking. A $20+ tabouli with no bulgur that was so roughly chopped it was basically whole parsley leaves and slices of onion. Any Lebanese auntie would die at the sight of it. At one point I asked our server if they had harissa or any kind of spicy sauce. She said the only option was Sriracha. In a Lebanese restaurant that charges $18 for a tablespoon of hummus. An Asian chili sauce as the only option. What made it even stranger is that harissa is listed on multiple dishes on the menu, so it clearly exists somewhere in the building. I asked for the Sriracha anyway out of desperation for flavor. It never came. Same with ketchup for my toddler's fries, it took three requests. Throughout the meal I walked around the restaurant several times taking my son to the bathroom, looking around the space, even going upstairs to the lounge. Not a single person acknowledged us. Not a host, not a server, not a manager. The bar is right by the entrance and every time we looked over at the bartender and bar manager, just blank stares. At one point we were clearly standing there confused looking for the bathroom in an empty restaurant and still had to say "Excuse me, where is the bathroom?" Wild. Later I walked up to the bar myself to ask if they carried mezcal. After dinner I went back to order one. Same energy--zero warmth, zero engagement. And this is with an automatic 20% gratuity already on the bill. The mezcal was a $25 two-ounce pour and I still had to ask for an orange slice garnish because no one offered it. Empty bar, two people behind it, and I still had to request it. Also worth noting, our reservation was at 5:45pm and the restaurant was practically empty. Yet I didn't see a single manager walking the floor, greeting tables, or checking on guests. I had talked this place up to my party because I'd been so curious about it for years, and it was honestly a huge letdown. If you know Lebanese food and understand Middle Eastern warmth and hospitality, this probably isn't the place for you. Expect cold, almost nonexistent hospitality and food that feels stripped of the soul that makes Lebanese cuisine special. The space is beautiful. I'll give them that. Everything else felt like a very on-brand Miami disappointment, what happens when you give people a beautiful restaurant, expensive food, automatic gratuity, and no leadership. From the lack of authenticity and attention to detail, it's hard to believe anyone truly Lebanese is behind this operation. If anything, it feels more like a polished money grab. Honestly, it might have been less jarring if they just called themselves "Mediterranean" like so many other places in this city. But if you're going to call yourself a Lebanese restaurant, the culture and hospitality should actually be there.

    We've been hitting up Mediterranean restaurants like nobody's business on this leg of our spring…read morebreak, in part because of our proximity to many, and in part because my progeny and I are currently obsessed with babaganoush in its many variations. For this particular dinner, we were also focused on finding a truly vegetarian friendly restaurant where we could take our dear friends. Kabobji was a wonderful choice for vegetarians, omnivores, and carnivores alike. It's a large restaurant with plenty of booths and large tables for gathering with friends and family. Someone I suspect to be an owner was working hard alongside his wait staff and displayed a sense of genuine hospitality. Above all, the restaurant has a rock solid kitchen. The falafel ($13.99 / 5 pieces) here were ****STELLAR****!!! They're shaped like Indian medu vada (fried with a hole in the middle), probably for the same reason: to allow as much of the surface to fry to that perfect golden crisp as possible. And Kabobji's falafel were, in fact, awesomely crisp and well textured, made from soaked chickpeas in the traditional style, perfectly sized, nuanced and subtle in flavor -- some of the best we can remember having. (For reference, we love Nish Nush and Tanoreen for falafel in NYC -- and I think our neighborhood must be one of the major international epicenters for falafel.) Also excellent: the baba ghannouj ($10.99 for the small size), just a bit chunky, enriched with a lot of tahini, a moderate amount of garlic, a touch of lemon. This is how we like to make it at home. The vegetable ghallaba platter ($20.99) was simply made with thinly sliced onions and bell peppers, a small amount of zucchini, I think, and a touch of tomato. I would've loved to have had a spritz of lemon or sprinkle of sumac for a more acidic component, perhaps a little less onion. Note that this dish works better as a main course when accompanied by something protein-y like hummus, but it was pleasant to eat alongside our other orders. A convive, who went with the mixed shawarma platter ($27.99), found it to be a generous portion size and enjoyed it, especially with a side of well composed fattoush salad (+$5.99 to upgrade). Beef shish kebab ($14.99) and lamb shawarma ($15.99) wraps were both excellent and moist, a good balance of protein and vegetable. I didn't try them, but the "cheese pies" ($12.99) turned out to be pitas covered with a large amount of melty white cheese that some young children might enjoy as pizza. (Mine probably would've found them to be "too cheesy," but they're mutants.) They came three to an order. When you dine in, they bring a big basket of warm pita / pida to the table -- quite a generous touch!! I think it's house made and of course went beautifully with our food. Bottom line: GREAT FALAFEL! Great, low-key, family-friendly vibe. Good for vegetarians and non-vegs. Go.

    Another incredible experience at Kaboji. The service is, as always, attentive and truly above and…read morebeyond, and the food never disappoints. Because we had a large group, we ordered two veggie mezzas for the table. They come with grape leaves, baba ghannouj, and hummus, which makes them perfect for sharing. And the unlimited pita bread is always a win. The salad, so refreshing. The Lebanese cheese rolls are also amazing. Some of us switched it up and tried the spicy fish, sautéed shrimp, and the mixed shawarma platter. No regrets. The fish was so flavorful and the perfect size. LollllpThe rest of us stuck to the kabobs and lamb, which are consistently a safe bet. The space is great too. The huge windows give you beautiful lighting, and they have seating for large parties that still feels more private. We'll definitely be back.
