The space was clean with plenty of seating, and the staff was warm and welcoming from the moment I walked in. They gave me time to browse the menu without any rush, and were ready to take my order the moment I decided. I went with the Falafel and Eggplant Pita Wrap, ordered exactly as it comes -- five crispy handmade falafels, roasted eggplant, hummus, tomato and cucumber salad, purple cabbage slaw, white onions, tomatoes, pickles, and lemon tahini sauce. What I loved about the presentation was how they sliced the pita and stuffed the toppings inside the pocket, then placed the eggplant and falafel on the outside before wrapping everything up tightly. It made for a much easier, cleaner eat -- no toppings tumbling out with every bite! My first bite was amazing. The fresh flavors really shined, the falafels were perfectly crispy, and the eggplant had that deep, savory roasted flavor. Every topping complemented the others beautifully, and I walked away completely satisfied. I am so happy I found this fast and healthy option close by! I also grabbed a baklava and a mango sparkling probiotic drink -- both delicious. Beyond the food, they have soft drinks, tea, and lemonade, plus a sauce bar with vinegar and oil if you want to customize your meal even further. Overall, an excellent experience from start to finish. I can't wait to come back and try their other menu options!

The first thing we noticed, which was a bit unexpected, was the decor. The ambiance was really nice and inviting. This is the type of restaurant where someone could host a party. The service was really good too. We received water almost immediately after being seated, and our server came by shortly after. The manager stopped by throughout our visit to provide recommendations, and he was really nice. It made the experience feel more personal. For our appetizer, we ordered the Baba Ghannouj, which complemented the pita bread really well. It was our first time having it, and we did not know what to expect, but it was great. It was really flavorful, and we finished it wanting more. For our entrees, we had the Lamb Chops and the Seafood Tagine. The lamb chops were great. It was not a huge portion, but the meat was flavorful and cooked well. The presentation was also really nice. The Seafood Tagine looked great, and the sauce was incredibly flavorful. Everything about the dish worked well together, and we felt that all the flavors complemented one another. There was a good harmony between the ingredients. For dessert, we ordered the Kunafa, which was another first for us. We had never had it before, but the description really sold us on it. It was really good. This is the kind of dessert that is best shared since it is a little heavy. Toward the end of our visit, a belly dancer came out to perform, and it was really exciting. La Vie is a great restaurant, and we will definitely return. We felt as though we got a true Mediterranean experience during our visit.

We started with batata harra and cheese bulak. Both were great! The potatoes in the batata harra were very well seasoned and flavorful. The cheese bulak was good but might be a little off putting if your not use to mintiness in your cheese. A belly dancer came out and went around to all the tables and really engaged with everyone. For our entrees we got chicken tagine and lamb chops. I must say the lamb chops were phenomenal. Perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection. I definitely recommend getting them medium. All in all if you're looking for something different definitely go check it out!

While the food was good, the overall experience fell far below expectations. The setup took much longer than it should have, adding unnecessary stress before my guests arrived. More importantly, the customer service was unacceptable. My mother, who owns the yacht where the event was held and was simply helping coordinate logistics, was spoken to disrespectfully and told, "I don't work for you, lady." When you're hiring a caterer for a milestone event, you expect professionalism, communication, and respect--not just good food. Unfortunately, those expectations were not met. It's disappointing because the quality of the food had potential, but poor customer service overshadowed the entire experience. I hope Olive & Saffron takes customer feedback seriously and improves the way they communicate with and treat their clients.

I'll tell you right off the bat the entire staff was amazing, friendly, helpful and so nice. It's a beautiful restaurant actually a little smaller on the inside than we anticipated. From the outside you would think it's very large. It has great ambience and atmosphere. We had a couple of amazing cocktails. I had their fig old-fashioned, and my wife had their spritzer. Both were very good. As for the food, these were some of the best dishes that we've had at a Mediterranean restaurant We started with their octopus special and their hummus. The octopus was outstanding and had a great smoky flavor because of a smoked paprika The hummus was creamy smooth, and the pita bread that they serve with it has such a tremendously good flavor For dinner I had their duck and my wife had the fish special Dorado. The duck was hands-down the best duck I've had moist meat super crispy skin excellent orange dipping sauce, and the potatoes were a great side. My wife's fish was pan seared and came in a caper and lemon wine reduction that was out of this world. For dessert, we had their chocolate cake and it was flavorful light, airy, and delicious. 100% this is on the multiple return list. If you want great Mediterranean hit this place up. I do recommend making a reservation as we were told they can get busy.

There is also a belly dancer who is INCREDIBLE. I felt that the service could have been better which is why I am giving four stars. The hostess was cold and our server disappeared towards the end of our meal and left us sitting waiting for the check for 45 minutes. There was a manager walking around who was super attentive and would quickly rush over if he noticed we were looking around for a server. - crispy sweet harissa cauliflower: DELICIOUS, such a yummy sauce - roasted mediterranean eggplant: also absolutely delicious, I expected it to be a babaghanoush but it wasn't a dip - fish tagine: super healthy portion, fish was so tender, tons of olives, really really enjoyed it. the only feedback was that this wasn't served with bread like it traditionally is in Morocco, but I asked for some and they brought it at no extra cost - baklava: yum! I also had one of their Miami Spice margs which was a classic marg and very strong. One thing to note is that they do have hookah inside here although it doesn't smell at all. Would love to return to Zuri!

Strong plant-based options on the menu (we left feeling super full) 2. Strong non-alcoholic drink options (he's doing dry January as he prepares for an 100k ultra marathon) 3. Fun entertainment and sexy atmosphere as we weren't planning to go out after in Wynwood since he wasn't drinking, (the belly dancers, hookah and Moroccan tea were perfect way to cap off the night) ZURI checked off all of those boxes. As all of the other reviews mention, the restaurant has a super beautiful, design-forward interior that reminded us of our time in Marrakech. Every plate we had was excellent, and the service across the board was wonderful. As for entertainment, the dancers and hookah really was the perfect way for us to cap it off. I could see it being a cool restaurant to go to start off the night, but also be sexy and intimate for people like us looking for something beyond the typical "restaurant and drinks" experience. Highly recommend.
