Taverna Kyma

Taste: ****

Cost: $$

Went here for lunch, nice place, great outdoor seating. The serving size was massive for lunch. I had the Gyro and it was very good. My buddy had the chicken Pita and though he couldn't answer my question on how it tasted bc his mouth was full, I'm sure he loved it. Will have to come back and further explore the menu.

Maria's Greek Restaurant - Miami

Taste: *****

Cost: $$

The best greek food I've ever had. period. You have to try the saganaki... its perfection on a plate. Perfectly baked cheese set on fire. No seriously, I have dreams about it. The grape leaves, hummus, and gyro platters are amazing too. But yeah, saganaki... you've been warned b/c this stuff is addicting like crack. Portions are plentiful, cost is pretty low considering its the gables area. This place has been recently decorated and is a rare gem. Even small nuances like the feta cheese, and the crispy fries. This is probably the one place I will break from my diet to eat at. 5 stars easy. Best Greek Food. EVER.

Shawarma Mediterranean Grill (Miami)

Taste: ***
Cost: $$

Out here in west kendall, you're hard pressed to find anything remotely Mediterranean with the except of the "gyro" platter at Miami Subs. Tucked away on kendall, Shawarma, was some decent alternative eats if you don't feel like making the trek out east. Its your typical food on a stick, carved off concept. No Tzaki sauce, but the meat is very aromatic, it doesn't really need it, lots of fennel, which is good. The rice pilaf was ok, i mean the rice is definitely hispanic rice, with oil, and they try their best by putting the mini noodles and almond slivers. I like my pilaf more fluffy rather than oily and salty (a first for me, i know). The pita is unimpressive, but for the money and the meat, I'll be coming back when I'm sick of Chipotle and Pei Wei.

Kebob Mediterrainean Grill (Delray)

Taste: ****
Cost: $

An amazing find. The gyro, adana, baby lamb, kefka and chicken are amazing. Huge portions, opt for the bulgur as a side and you have a great meal on your hands. Really well seasoned meats. I suggest you opt for the family sample platter and find which one of their meats REALLY does it for you. The tzatziki sauce is like liquid crack. Awesome. Their prices cannot be beat.
