    Short rib hummus
    Jasmine T.

    Food: generally good, not great Service: fairly bad, not terrible Smoked eggplant was very good after a small dash of salt. It was very tender, came with a fresh, minced tomato salad, and served split, whole. Pita was good, hot, fresh, soft and fluffy inside with a light exterior crisp. Chicken schwarma dinner with rice is tender and flavorful. Short rib hummus was OK. The hummus is nice and velvety, but the short ribs could've used more seasoning and was dry and hard around the edges. The chicken made a better pairing. Service was slow and lacking. We were seated quickly, but it took a while for a waiter to come. After being seated just past 7pm, our appetizer arrived 20+ minutes after ordering, and entrees didn't come until 8pm. Nearby empty tables went unwiped for most of our stay, and it was off-putting to watch staff only partially clean them while handling the tops of salt and pepper shakers with unclean hands. I was not surprised to see health violations listed here afterwards. The experience worsened with dessert. Our Basque cheesecake came with a thick layer of chocolate instead of the berry coulis listed on the menu. When I mentioned the discrepancy so he could inform future guests, the waiter repeatedly suggested I speak to the manager, despite me saying it wasn't necessary. His tone wasn't kind, and it felt dismissive--especially since he had served the dish and could clearly see the difference. We will not be returning nor recommending.

    Cafe Landwer's storied history and commitment to quality is exactly the kind of place I'm drawn to. And while I genuinely enjoyed the food, I don't see myself returning. Why? The experience just didn't come together. There was a bit of an attitude on arrival -- even with a reservation -- which set the wrong tone. From there, the service felt frenetic, with repeated warnings about kitchen delays, and the very loud atmosphere made for an overall uncomfortable evening. Dining is about more than just the food, and I was surprised that a place promoting its European roots didn't deliver the level of service and hospitality typically associated with that tradition. That said, the food was excellent and the pricing very fair. We had the Chicken Shawarma Hummus Bowl with pita, Chopped Salad, Kebab (the only dish I wasn't wild about), Pesto Burrata Pizza, and Landwer's Famous Schnitzel entrée -- a strong lineup overall. A real shame, because this place has the potential to be great.

    Green Shakshuka (specialty for Shakshuka month)
    Sheri J.

    A lovely brasserie style café at the end of an unassuming shopping plaza with indoor and outdoor seating. The portions are large and uniquely presented. Some of the dishes had nice components but just fell short on flavor. The breakfast sandwich is tasty, but can be a bit more elevated with a sauce (like an aioli) added. The chicken shakshuka stew was tasty and surprisingly not spicy (a plus for me), but the chicken itself was lacking in flavor and quality. A great value is Landwer's Famous Breakfast. It's a buffet on a plate. Enough to share. I did not taste the specialty croissant cubes, but they looked amazing. The butter croissants are flaky and delicious and baked on site. The café is said to be known for their coffee and my iced latte did not disappoint. The staff is friendly, helpful and attentive.

    First time here and I'm so happy I went!! I've always wanted to try this restaurant and we finally did. We came here on a Sunday afternoon around 4 pm with no reservations and were seated immediately. I would recommend getting a reservation for peak hours. By the time we left the inside was filling up but there was still plenty of seating outside. The decor is very modern and cute loved the interior design. I started with the famous moroccan iced tea. It was sweet and refreshing with a spiced flavor. I really enjoyed it would definitely recommend. If you're hungry for hummus I suggest ordering the chicken shawarma hummus bowl and sharing it as an appetizer! We had plenty left over between two people. Supper tasty and flavorful. I ordered the chicken schnitzel challah sandwich with potatoes. The sandwich was incredible!!! Super thin and crispy chicken with delicious fresh challah bread. I loved the eggplant spread on top of it. As for the potatoes they weren't my favorite I would definitely order the French fries next time. The servers were all very nice and helpful but I felt that our food took a while compared to all the other tables around us. It was on the slower side so that's where I deducted a star. Overall can't wait to come back here!

    Great food and service. We had dinner out with friends and then returned the following week for brunch with family & kids. The dining room appeared inviting and fun, but with kids in tow, eating outdoors made more sense. Fabulous bread and pastries, extensive breakfast items, and copious portions, including the children's menu. Next time I'm inclined to order the chicken schnitzel AKA chicken fingers off the kids menu!

    Good Humus with best pita ever
    Genna G.

    Great addition to the south Florida dining scene. This Mediterranean place ( I'd describe it as Israel food ) has the most house made delicious pita bread we have ever had . It's a chain with several locations throughout the US including another in Miami and one in LA and one in Vegas. Portions are enormous. Good place for a group . Tip- treat it as a family style restaurant and instead of everyone ordering an entree, order a bunch of things for the table and share everything . My teens loved it here. Food is very good. Casual, good service , fair prices .

    The hard boiled egg are well done, And the  tomato sauce is well done burnt
    Scarlets T.

    I recently visited this restaurant after hearing rave reviews from friends about its exceptional food and inviting atmosphere, particularly the Shakshuka, which they claimed was reminiscent of authentic dishes from Israel. I arrived at the Boca location around 7 PM on March 31, filled with anticipation for the experience ahead. However, upon arrival, I was disappointed to find there was no one at the counter to greet me and show me to a table. After a few minutes, a staff member finally appeared and stated she would return shortly. I was taken aback when she walked away to converse with patrons at another table, leaving a growing line of customers waiting. After approximately five more minutes, she returned and connected us with a waiter, who promptly walked away and was subsequently unavailable to take our order. We approached another waitress and requested assistance in locating our waiter. She assured us she would take care of it. Unfortunately, it took 20 minutes before our original waiter returned, apologizing for the delay. Knowing what we wanted, we quickly placed our order for the Shakshuka. Regrettably, we then had to wait an additional 30 minutes for our meal to arrive. When the Shakshuka finally came to our table, I was disappointed to find that the eggs were hard-boiled and overcooked, and the dish was overwhelmed by a thick burnt tomato sauce. The challah was also dry. Furthermore, I experienced difficulty in obtaining napkins, as well as salt and pepper, which were not readily available on our table. As we prepared to leave, we again struggled to find our waiter for the check. It seems that when the owner or manager is not present, the quality of service diminishes significantly. I hope my experience was an isolated incident, as I truly wanted to enjoy the dining experience my friends had described.

    Short rib hummus and pita bread
    Jim P.

    Bottom line: Food was generally good. The service is still a work in progress. We were pleased to see this new restaurant was busy on a Sunday night when we arrived for dinner. A good sign of things to come, we hoped! We were warmly greeted by the hostess and then by our server. Glasses of water promptly arrived while we perused the menu and asked several questions about entrees and ingredients. The staff was knowledgeable and likely often received such questions because our server, Ryan, and another more senior server (Cherie?) easily answered our questions and showed us pictures of some of the entrees. Surprisingly the water did not have any ice and was not very cold. We were provided with glasses of ice when we requested it. We were also given a pitcher of water (also sans ice) for the table when we asked for it. After careful consideration of the menu, we finally made our dinner selections. Our friends ordered a hummus appetizer with pita bread. It was a large portion of hummus, suitable for at least 4 people. The hummus was fresh-made and delicious, although the texture was a bit thin. It included several whole chickpeas, which was a nice feature. Landwer's house-made pita bread is amazing! Thick, steaming hot, and a little doughy. We ordered a second bread because it was so good. Unfortunately, some sort of snafu occurred with the hand-held ordering system and the server had to retake our order. No problem... we just kept feasting on the hummus and pita bread. One person in our group had the lamb and beef skewers, which were nicely seasoned and tasty. The grilled veggies listed on the menu included large pieces of red onions, which were also good. The huge portion of potato wedges were delicious. Too many to finish, but too good to leave behind so they went home in a doggy bag. Another person had the Jerusalem salad with a grilled chicken add-on. It included tomatoes, cucumbers, diced hard-boiled egg, and chickpeas. It was very good and a sizeable portion. My wife ordered the short rib hummus entree. It was accompanied by the aforementioned fabulous pita bread. The short rib was tender and flavorful, although it contained more fat than expected. When she placed the order, the server said they were out of short rib, so my wife changed the order to chicken shawarma hummus. She was pleasantly surprised when the short rib hummus dinner arrived. Oddly, when we were part way through eating, the chicken shawarma hummus also arrived. Oops! I had the Landwer's "famous" chicken schnitzel entree with french fries. I don't know if it should be described as "infamous" rather than famous, because it was disappointingly dry. The menu stated the chicken breast would be crispy fried, but I didn't expect it to be so dry and tough. The fries were also fairly bland and could have had more seasoning. The chicken schnitzel is also available as a sandwich, made with a homemade challah roll, and includes some veggies and a sauce. That may be the better way to enjoy the schnitzel. We heard the manager tell the server to give us a mezza platter to make up for the various service issues. Sadly, yet another service issue occurred and the mezza platter never arrived. When we mentioned this, the server took the extra pita bread off the bill. And she gave us 10% off the short rib hummus dinner as compensation for the service issue causing us to reorder our meals. We appreciated that they acknowledged some service breakdowns and tried to make up for them with reductions in our bill. Over time, hopefully the service mistakes will be minimized. The food was mostly good and flavorful. We'll be back... maybe not right away though.

    Delicious home made Israeli/ middle eastern food! First time here, had the chicken shwarma humus bowl that had amazing humus and the best fresh pita. I would go back just for humus and pita. Service was a little slow but was worth it.

    Mezza platter with several dips and pita bread
    Kim P.

    I'd heard good things about Cafe Landwer in Boca, so I stopped by for dinner with a friend. We enjoyed our experience! Although the menu consists primarily of Mediterranean fare such as schawarma, kebob skewers, schnitzel and hummus, it also has an extensive line-up of interesting salads to which chicken or salmon can be added, and a variety of pastas. We selected the mezza (appetizer) platter to share. It included several dips such as labneh, hummus, baba ganoush, and tzatziki. They were all flavorful. The best part of the mezza platter was the frena pita bread. The 3 pieces were soft, warm and doughy. Delicious! I was pleased to see a shakshuka entree on the dinner menu as this is usually a breakfast or lunch item, consisting of poached eggs in a spicy tomato sauce. For dinner, Landwer offers a shakshuka carne, made with short rib beef. The meat was good although it could have been a bit more tender. I would have also preferred a little spicier sauce. The entree also comes with kalamata olives and a sesame-encrusted avocado. The accompanying bread was supposed to be a frena pita according to the menu, but to our delight it was a fresh challah bread. Yum! The service was excellent. The server patiently answered our questions and even showed us pictures of the items we ordered to be sure we were getting what we expected. The server and the hostess frequently refilled our water glasses throughout our meal. The water pitcher didn't contain any ice, so the water was a bit too warm. We would have liked to try one (or more!) of Landwer's rosalach (Israeli rolled) cookies filled with Nutella, Oreos or some other decadent treat. Alas, we were satiated from our meal. Next time! Cafe Landwer was fairly busy for a weekday evening. No doubt they will be even busier as more people learn about this new restaurant.

Thank you to Mykonos Grill for a great meal. Fast, fresh and delicious!

    Absolutely awful beef gyro sandwich. Dry meat that was obviously pan fried before serving, it was…read moretough and chewy, edges were so crisp they crackled. Gyro meat is supposed to be tender and delicious, not tough, chewy and hard at the edges. Very disappointed . The service was fine, the place didn't feel clean. Parking was easy. The chicken gyro was just as bad as the beef gyro. Flavorless and chewy. The white sauce was thick tzatziki, lumpy and chalky. Everything was over salted, we drank a gallon of water afterwards, still couldn't get the taste out of our mouths. I don't know about the people giving this place 5 stars, have they ever had a good gyro?

    Another great meal at Amar Mediterranean. We go the classic hummus, baba ghanouj, moudardara, and…read morearnabeet mekleh. It was all fantastic and the baba ghanouj was one of the best I've had. The pitas were amazing, they came to our table piping hot and billowing with hot steamy air. We also tried the tabouleh. For mains, the octopus on lentils was very good. The lamb chops were great with mint pesto and very puffy rice, tho they came out a bit over done (I ordered them medium and they were closer to medium well). The branzino was also good - a unique take on the dish with lentil sauce.

    Not only is this restaurant beautiful inside and out, the food is amazing. The outside decor is…read morecompelling- inviting you to go inside. We sat at a table that gave us plenty of time for privacy and conversation. Sharing with a friend, we were able to share many items so we could try many different things. Some of my favorite things: Kebbet Laa'tin (Pumpkin kebbe, chickpeas, pomegranate, Swiss chard, onion, bulgur): love all the mixture of textures in this Arnabeet Mekleh (Cauliflower, tahini, almond, golden raisins): the smoky, caramelized cauliflower had such a rich flavor- and the raisins offset this so nicely Kanafeh (Kataifi dough melted cheese tart, orange blossom, pistachio): this was not only a showstopper- watching the liquid being poured on the entire tart tableside- the crunch on the outside, with the soft inside, was delicious! Last but not least, the creamy hummus and the homemade pita was wonderful. Thank you to our server for helping us decide what to order- and making us feel so welcome.
