Boutique Café — Restaurant in Fort Lauderdale

Unfortunately our experience did not live up to the reviews. Only giving 2 stars because the server was sweet and they did not charge is for most of our meal and rightfully so. We ordered a bottle of wine, which was brought to us already opened. It tasted like vinegar as if it had been open for days. We said something to our server right away, and she said she had just opened it and maybe we just weren’t familiar with Israeli wine…we tried to let it air out but it didn’t get any better. Next we tried the eggplant appetizer upon recommendation, and it tasted like liquid smoke- you could not even taste the eggplant whatsoever. The pita was good, but unfortunately the eggplant appetizer was inedible. Next we had the vegetable couscous with baby chicken and steak. The baby chicken did not look like normal chicken and the texture was very rubbery. The beef was cooked well and had good flavor. The couscous tasted like it was mixed with jarred baby vegetables… carrots to be exact- not what we were expecting. We tried the falafel and hummus platter. The falafel tasted old or pre made/frozen and then deep fried in oil that hadn’t been changed in awhile- very tough on the outside and dry in the middle. The hummus was actually the worst we’ve ever had. I’ve personally never had bad hummus before- I didn’t even know that was possible. We felt terrible voicing our feedback as we could tell this was a family establishment and we did not want to offend anyone. The owner (I think she was the owner) offered to make us something else, but we declined as we had lost our appetite. We wanted to like everything as we love Mediterranean food and trying new restaurants especially supporting small businesses and the inside decor was very cute, but the cuisine we tried just was not our taste. Maybe we just went...

My family and I ate at Px Mediterranean Grill last week in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

They specialize in Kosher Foods and the flavors were out of this world 🌍 good 💫

We started w the Arais $17.95 (Ground Beef Kabob Grilled to perfection in a Pita 🫓 Pocket) That is what the menu stated, and it was true, it was absolutely grilled to perfection!!!! The flavors were on point and this might have been my favorite flavor of the night.

We ordered the Fried Combo $19.95 (Pastel 3 Pcs, Cigar 3 Pcs, Kibbeh 3pc) I absolutely love fried things so we had to try the combo. You could tell they use fresh oil because there was no taste of old fry oil, I really appreciate that. The textures were spot on, and I enjoyed all three selections.

I ordered the Schnitzel Plate 2 Pcs. $31.95 and it came w fries. This dish was really good and executed well. It also came w rice and this stews okra w tomato sauce on top. It was very good and added a great complement of acidity to the dish.

They also brought complimentary side items to go w the meal that was really good. Seriously, all the flavors were on point 💫

My wife order the Greek Salad With Vegan Feta $17.95 It was good. I asked the waiter why vegan feta and he said because they were Kosher. I thought that was cool 😎

For dessert we ordered a Peanut Butter Dome $12.95 & a Chocolate Dome $12.95 The presentation was fabulous! They were decadent, rich and over the top. Everything a dessert should be 😉 I am a huge peanut butter fan and always have to order if I see a dessert w it. So so glad we did!

Last Thursday, I brought my team here for a company event, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment we walked in, the energy of the restaurant was incredible. Despite it being a busy night, the atmosphere felt lively and welcoming without feeling chaotic.

The food was absolutely amazing—each dish was thoughtfully prepared, perfectly seasoned, and beautifully presented. Every member of my team was raving about their meals, and it’s clear that the kitchen staff puts genuine care and passion into their work.

The service was equally impressive. Even with the restaurant being packed, we were made to feel like the only table there. The staff was attentive, professional, and personable, ensuring that every detail of our evening was taken care of seamlessly. Drinks were refilled promptly, special requests were handled without hesitation, and they even took the time to ask if everything was to our liking multiple times throughout the night.

This restaurant really sets the standard for how to handle large groups without sacrificing quality or service. I genuinely recommend this place to anyone looking for incredible food, outstanding service, and a vibrant atmosphere. Whether it’s for a company event like ours or a personal dinner, you won’t be disappointed. We’ll definitely...
