Best Mediterranean Restaurants in West Little River

Food was fantastic and our waiter Asher was awesome. Restaurant was super cool and area was very lively. 10/10 recommend

Save yourself a plane ticket to Paris… just drive to beautiful Design District and lunch or dinner at Le Jardinier! The food is exquisite; fresh, light, innovative. Expertly served and explained with great care and accuracy. It is a gourmet experience, an event. The restaurant is impeccably kept, fantastic music plays (at a volume that allows for conversation and interaction! Imagine this, here in Miami!). Despite their well choreographed service, we asked for a slightly different meal for one of our guests that was pescatarian and Chef was happy to accommodate. Drinks were wonderful. Le Jardinier has been, and continues to be, simply elevated and superb!

Doya – A Must-Try for Greek & Turkish-Inspired Meze Recently dined at Doya, a fantastic spot that blends Greek and Turkish flavors with a menu designed for sharing. The restaurant specializes in both cold and hot meze, making it perfect for a communal dining experience. For cold meze, I highly recommend the traditional fava bean spread, eggplant (babaganoush), green goddess dip (similar to tzatziki), and shrimp carpaccio—all fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Among the hot meze, we tried the rib steak over the wood-fired grill, which, while cooked well, needed a bit more seasoning. However, the grilled Dorado fish was outstanding—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We rarely order dessert, but the chocolate mousse with cherries was a standout and an absolute must-try. Service at Doya is team-oriented, delightful, and impressively quick. The food comes out fast, making for a seamless dining experience without feeling rushed. Overall, Doya delivers a wonderful dining experience, with a well-executed menu, great service, and a lively atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore high-quality Mediterranean flavors in a shareable format.

Good vibes, good food, good people—what more can you ask for? El Turco is a hidden gem in Miami, offering authentic Turkish flavors in a warm and inviting setting. The outdoor ambiance under the beautiful tree adds to the relaxing atmosphere, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a meal. From the freshly baked locksmith sandwich to the creamy hummus and perfectly cooked meatball dishes, every bite was flavorful and satisfying. The künefe with ice cream was the perfect way to end the meal—crispy, sweet, and indulgent. Pairing it with traditional Turkish tea made the experience even more authentic. On top of that, the staff Mya was welcoming and friendly, making us feel right at home. Whether you’re a fan of Turkish cuisine or just looking for a great dining experience in Miami, El Turco is a must-visit!
