Motek Miami Beach

“WOW!!! This place is an absolute gem. We shared several dishes and every single one was better than the last. The cigars, arayes, challah schnitzel sandwich, shawarma on laffa, and the knafeh were all phenomenal. As Israelis, we know Mediterranean food, and this was simply outstanding. Everything tasted fresh, authentic, and made with care. The entire experience was amazing from start to finish. I also want to give a special shout-out to Ryan, our server. Ryan was absolutely incredible. You can genuinely tell that he loves what he does and takes pride in where he works. Every recommendation he gave us was a perfect choice. He checked on us throughout the meal, always made sure our drinks were full, kept us smiling and laughing, and treated us with exceptional kindness and professionalism. Ryan was a huge part of what made this experience so memorable. Employees like him are hard to find, and he deserves recognition for the outstanding job he does. He represents your restaurant in the best possible way. Thank you for such a memorable evening. We will definitely be back and will be recommending Motek to everyone we know. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

“I honestly fell in love with this place. From the very first meal at Motek, I knew it was special. The food is incredibly fresh, flavorful, and made with so much care — every dish felt comforting and unforgettable. I was visiting Miami Beach, and it got to the point where I went back every single day because nothing else compared. The atmosphere is warm, welcoming, and full of good energy, and the staff made me feel like family every time I walked in. You can truly feel the passion behind the food and hospitality. Thank you for making my trip so memorable. I’m already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommend to anyone looking for amazing Mediterranean food and a beautiful dining experience.”

“Great foodie spot! Home made bread, they dont cook with seed oils, and our server Manuel was so wonderful! 5 stars!!! I dont eat pork, this place has the most incredible chicken schnitzel sandwhich...I mean, home made challah bread bun which was lightly toasted on the inside of the sandwich, 2 thin delicate crispy chicken patties battered in sesame seeds and perfectly fried, cabbage slaw, homemade pickles and perfectly ripe tomatoes....and large enough to split if you get the yummy za'atar fries and 1-2 mezz.”

“Motek is an absolute gem. The Mediterranean flavors are authentic, vibrant, and beautifully balanced, every dish feels thoughtfully prepared and full of soul. Our server Manuel was amazing. His service was impeccable: attentive without being intrusive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely kind. He made us feel welcomed from the moment we sat down. Exceptional food paired with exceptional service, this is hospitality done right.”

“Very nice restaurant, which gets quite busy, particularly in the evenings. I would highly recommend making a reservation, especially in case you’re a bigger group. The food is really nice, and portions are huge. I can highly recommend the Baba Ghanoush, which was simply outstanding. Also the hummus was great. The dips are perfect with the homemade pita bread - which comes still warm. Sensational taste really. And then - of course - the lamb kebab and shawarma. The meat could have been a bit juicier, but the taste was great. Service is friendly and fast.”
