I was looking for a traditional styled beachside restaurant and I found it. My waiter, Bob, was very entertaining and full of personality which added to the dining experience. He recommended some excellent dishes - as an appetizer, grape leaves (homemade), for an entree, the octopus skewers (my favorite seafood), and as a dessert, the baklava (another favorite of mine). Overall, I found the owner charming and he obviously had pride in the finished product and Bob was delightful as well. I would recommend this beachside restaurant if you are ever in the Pompano area. After all, twenty steps east is the beach....what could be better than a good meal, some adult beverages (which were reasonably priced compared to other places), and a walk after that experience.... read more

Ehab's amazing energy actually took our attention away from the pizzeria next door as we were arranging for seating there, and we don't regret one second!! I had the lamb gyro plate, my hubby and daughter in law had the Tangine (one had seafood and one had lamb), and my son had a smash burger (the kill joy- lol!) we all had baklava with ice cream to finish. The food was absolutely amazing and the service was superb. If you are in the Pampano Beach area, please do yourself a favor and try this sweet gem of a restaurant. I promise you'll be pleased! read more

Do not get the baba ghanoush!!!! It's so expensive to the tiniest portion to ever exist. It was $8 for literally 2 tablespoons worth. We were mind blown. The bathroom is kinda sketchy, and so is the inside. The falafel pita was tasty and they chicken gyro was fine. They also only do bottle water and they make you pay for it, and they don't give you a receipt and they don't show you the digital screen so you don't know what you're paying for it how much you paid unless you check your bank statement. read more

I am used to mediterranean food. But.... Food: ordered the shaved lamb gyro platter. It was very dry and salty. I could not finished my plate because of the over salty taste. Presentation/appearance- Looked as if they've put the remaining left overs food from in my plate. Lamb were in pieces and some were like peeled potato skin. Overcooked and dry like shoe sole, The tzatziki did not taste like it. Hummus was oily . The so-called Smoothie is only a slush. You have a choice to drink it in a cup $6.99 or have it served in a coconut shell $4.99. I did not choose the coconut shell as i saw many coconut shells with straw on the table, i understood that it would be poured into one of those old coconut shell that has been used before. There is no water so you need to buy a bottle $1.99 if you want to drink water. Pita is very thin and tasteless. Service: waitress was nice but did not provide infos on extra cost for menu. She added meat without informing that it was additional $$$ Ambiance: outdoor seating. Many people passing by very close to my table. One kid had her filthy hand in my plate while her mother was busy talking next to us. It was very uncomfortable! Overall, i was disappointed for both the food quality and hygiene (coconut shell and i doubt the what i think are leftover lamb) and will not recommend the place. read more

Out walking by the Pompano Pier, decided to try Falafel Beach Grill and delighted we did. From the get go, Ehab waited on us cheerfully and diligently. When not sure what to pick between two main choices, he made it simpler, greatly helping with the decision. The food was absolutely delicious and the desert was the perfect ending. So glad to finally try Falafel Beach Grill. read more

I'm from the greater Detroit area and have been eating Mid-Eastern food for over 50 years. The falafel was not formed and tasteless. I've never had brown looking hummus before that tasted unlike any hummus I've ever had. The baba ganoush was acceptable. Disappointing, will not return. read more

Our breakfast was a wonderful experience. Ambiance seating outside was a treat. Really enjoyed our French toast and omelette. The experience was enhanced by our server who was a delight and set the tone for the day ahead. No doubt we will return read more

Great food! They bring a plate of hummus with pita and zatar in olive oil which complements the rest of the meal perfectly. Great falafel, great salads and my husband's gyro nachos were original and soooo tasty! Great service, the waitress/hostess was attentive, really nice and knows a lot about the menu and how things are made. The chef himself came out to see how we liked everything. We'll be back!!! read more

Stopped by the Falafel Beach Grill for a late lunch after a noon meeting. We were greeted warmly by the host and promptly seated. A nice selection of beverages although they were out of Stella Artois at the time. Ordered a gyro platter which came with rice and grilled vegetables. The tzatziki was very good, and lamb was tender. Rice was very aromatic and tasted nice. We sat outside and enjoyed the fresh ocean breeze and had a very nice lunch. Great service and fair prices. read more

This place is a tiny, super casual, mom-and-pop, Middle Eastern place in the beach block of Pompano Beach. Abd El Salam is a great chef who will adjust the menu to meet your expectations. He made a chocolate and pistachio crepe for me! read more

Went with the wife for breakfast. I had the beach omelet, which was excellent. My wife had foul and shashuka with chicken, she said it was excellent too. We will be back for lunch or dinner. Great food and very friendly service. One of our new favorites read more

We were in Pompano and decided to grab some lunch by the beach. We parked in the lot behind and walked along the strip of restaurants. We hadn't been here before so we decided to try it. It's a small place with several tables inside and more on the outside sidewalk. As the doors were open, it was nice that they had blowing fans inside to stay cool. My husband ordered a tuna salad pita wrap. He said it wasn't middle eastern, but that the tuna itself was pretty good. There was lettuce inside the thin wrap. Some well done french fries came as a side. The fries were good, too. I got their hummus topped with meat. I'd asked for lamb assuming it would be pieces of meat, but it was well cooked gyro slices. I liked the creamy hummus, but some of the meat was way over cooked. Their pita is the very paper thin kind which is not my favorite. The server (who also was the tout standing outside to entice people to try the place) was funny -- dancing a bit like a belly dancer to entertain us. He is Egyptian. The chef/owner (?) is Jordanian-American. The menu has sandwiches to entrees. Depending on what you order, you can find a reasonably priced meal. I'm glad we came to try this place. Now we know. read more

Cute and very hospitable spot just steps away from the beach. The hosts are very attentive and the menu is pretty extensive with a lot of interesting Mediterranean options and some nice twists on traditional American plates. They serve all day breakfast and offer crepes for dessert. There's dedicated parking behind the restaurant so you don't have to fight beach goers for a spot - when you sit to eat, they'll validate your parking for 90 minutes which is more than enough time to enjoy your meal. I didn't even realize this place was back here but now that I know, I'll be coming back when I want a nice little brunch. read more

Falafel Beach Grill - Gyro omelet with peppers - Mediterranean Near Me - Pompano Beach, Florida

This place has the best omelet I've ever had. The food was so fresh and flavorful, and the staff were really nice and welcoming. It's in such a great spot, just a block from the beach, so you can enjoy a meal and then take a walk by the ocean. The air conditioning inside makes it super comfortable too, especially on a hot day. I would definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a good meal in a beautiful location. read more

The ambiance, service and food were all perfect. We ordered the French crepes (new menu item) and they were delicious! Del, the chef came out to check in with us. He was kind and knowledgeable. Ally, our server was patient and the perfect server for us. I didn't try a smoothie, but they looked so good, might have to come back later for one, or. Pina colada served in a pineapple! For a location that is steps from the beach, the pricing was reasonable and we couldn't be happier with the experience overall. I think we may have to come back for lunch. read more

Disgusting food. The plate was absolutely disgusting and when we couldn't eat it they treated ed to bring something else but for no reason they removed the plate from the bill. Ended up paying over $60 for food absolutely terrible, Do not go here!! Don't waste your money! You have been warned!! read more

Ordered: 2 scrambled eggs, with home fries, toasted pita, side of gyro meat, and 2 sides of corned beef hash. Received: Fried eggs with gyro meat wrapped inside the eggs (like an omelette), potato wedge bites, non-toasted pita and 1 side of corned beef hash. Pro's: Quickly prepared (probably because they do not follow any directions as to what the person actually ordered) and quick delivery (thanks GH). Con's: Everything else: eggs not prepared properly, gyro meat mixed in with eggs instead of on the side as specifically asked, pita not toasted at all, "home fries" are just oily potato wedges, and only 1 side of corned beef hash when I ordered and paid for 2. I might've been willing to roll with all the crap above if the food was actually good, but it wasn't...saying it was mediocre is being generous, at best. Please see the pics so you can see I'm not exaggerating. read more

I was treated disrespectfully for refusing to eat disproportionate, distasteful, burnt food . The business owner was talking loud & being rude from the kitchen with an outburst that anyone sitting inside could hear I've never experienced such unprofessionalism in any of the restaurants on fort Lauderdale beach . As I'm about to leave the business owner, slithered to where I was seated & started to defend the inedible food that I refused to eat. I was not rude with my complaint & did not make a big deal about it. While leaving the restaurant the owner consistently made rude remarks non stop! Like yeh go! Leave! Now mind you, I did nothing to warrant this type of treatment. So, I had just enough of his disrespect & I just wanted to leave! So I responded to him the food did not taste good! This business owner then verbally assaulted me as I'm leaving by saying to me F**** You, You F****** B**** several times! Then he proceeded to walk towards me while cursing at me as though he wanted to hit me! Listen, Without customers you have no business period. Treat us with respect! A customer who is paying their hard earned money to eat at your restaurant, have the right not to eat a dish that does not taste good! This kind of behavior from a restaurant owner should not be tolerated. You as a business owner should be ashamed!!! You are the most unprofessional, Classless restaurant owner on Fort Lauderdale Beach! You will be the demise of your own successful down fall due to your intolerable disrespectful behavior and abusive treatment towards female customers. read more

This was my first and last time dining here. We ordered a chicken pita with French fries and a falafel pita with coleslaw. The waitress brought out the food and said that they were out of chicken so the owner decided to give us beef instead. They didn't even ask if we wanted that, just brought it. She also said they were out of coleslaw so just gave me fries instead. I didn't want fries but tasted them anyway and they weren't even fully cooked. They were hard. I didn't make a big deal out if either bc I didn't have the energy at that time. Then I told the waitress that I checked in on the Yelp app and it said I will receive a free baklava for doing so. She said "of course" went inside and the owner sent her back out to say that I need to write a review in order to get the baklava (even though the app didn't require that). I then said I'm not writing a review to get the baklava and that's the least he could do for bringing us a sandwich we didn't even order. She agreed and brought us out a tiny mushy piece of baklava that looked unappealing. I didn't eat it. They also never asked if I wanted a refill on my small plastic cup of iced tea. Also there was hardly any falafel in the pita. So because he insisted on a review, here is my bad review of the place. Mora Grille is two doors down from this place and way better. Go to Mora Grill instead. read more

Trying this little dive for the first time right off the beach in Pompano. Friendly folks running the place, extremely beachy for a falafel place but quick and fresh food. We ordered the falafel sandwich and a Lamb Gyro. I personally liked the Lamb better but both were good. Fries where old school fries and very tasty. Was able to enjoy a jazz concert on the beach at night while enjoying this yummy little dinner. read more

Lousy place with terrible food. Lamb's giro was very dry and overcooked, tasted really bad. Babaganush had a big chunks of eggplants, not chopped enough, also no tahini was added. The chef is very sloppy young guy, who knows nothing about cooking. I came inside to complain, but he doesn't seem to care at all, and even didn't apologize. Though our bill was pretty high for this food quality. I will never be there again and won't recommend to anybody. Doesn't deserve even one star. read more

Hawaiian chicken and Lamb Gyro wrap were amazing!!! The hummus and tzatziki were seriously out of this world. I would come back here just for the hummus, but really everything was wonderful.
