Wow, what a great surprise this place was! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by a smiling hostess who went far beyond simply welcoming guests. She seemed to be everywhere at once--our water glasses never dropped below half full, dirty plates disappeared almost immediately, and she checked on us throughout every course. She is truly a great employee and made our dining experience exceptional. As for the food, we started with the flaming cheese. It was perfectly crispy, and the fresh lemon squeezed over it at the end was a fantastic touch. For my entrée, I had the lamb with ratatouille, and it was absolutely amazing--packed with flavor. The harissa served with the pita bread added a nice kick and complemented the dish perfectly. My wife ordered the shaved lamb, and it was clearly not the typical store-bought variety. It tasted house-made, and the flavor was outstanding. We finished with the baklava, which was excellent--super flaky, not overly sweet, and filled with natural honey flavors. Overall, a fantastic dining experience with outstanding service and delicious food. We will definitely be back! read more

Flames is situated in a strip mall and you would never know from the outside what they have to offer. Our first time here we were actually impressed. Great service and the food is excellent, so much flavor! Even the rice was worth mentioning! We ordered mezzes to start with, they were beautifully arranged and served with triangles of thin pita bread. The Baba Ganoush was so delicious that we ordered an extra dish. For entrees we ordered the vegan Kafta. It came with a nice salad and was such a generous serving that we all had leftovers to take home. While this is not a cheap restaurant, we thought it was worthwhile. There is no outdoor seating but ample indoor dining. read more

We always find the service here to be excellent. The wait staff is always courteous and knowledgeable about the menu. We love the casual and lively atmosphere, especially when the belly dancers are there on Fridays and Saturdays. The food is consistently very good! We love the Awarma appetizer, all the shish kabobs, the Fattoush salad, and we love their special dessert, Ossmallieh. We always look forward to going there. It's a nice change from our usual American Fare. read more

Flames Mediterranean Bar and Grille - Baklava cheesecake with a cup of Turkish coffee! Amazing! - Mediterranean Near Me - Vero Beach, Florida

Thoughtfully created. Beautifully executed. Everything we ordered was prepared perfectly. The server recommended the most popular items and we went with the kabobs...lamb, salmon, shrimp, and chicken. Absolutely delicious. The grilled vegetables were expertly prepared. All of this was served over a bed of jasmine rice that did a great job of absorbing the lemony garlic goodness from the protein. It was a beautiful meal and beyond expectations. read more

It was our first time here & it will not be our last! Atmosphere was beautiful, service was great. Nico was attentive & friendly. Although he seemed like he was in a hurry? He may have been the only server? IDK? Our appetizer was very good. Hot app combo. The falafel was crispy outside, creamy chickpea & fava bean inside. There was something called a kibbeh. It was like a meat filled football. Crunchy, cracked wheat crust , minched beef & pine nuts.it was very flavorful. I'm not sure what all the Lebanese spices are? I believe they use Zaatar & sumac . As well as coriander , cinnamon & cumin. At least that was what I was tasting. The tahini , hummus & baba ghanouj were all yummy. The baba had just a hint of heat to it. Very nice! The whole platter was Fresh and plentiful. I had the lamb burger. Came with a house salad & fries. The salad was great! Cold , fresh & the dressing was delicious. It was a lemony tangy mixture with sumac. Very nice. My lamb burger was cooked perfectly, topped with feta, pickled vegetables & tahini. It was on a pretzel roll, which I thought was odd? It made it a little hard to bite, but I managed The Hubs ordered a dish called "Ouzi" It was ground meat, rice , peas, carrots , spices & almonds wrapped in a phyllo dough. He said it was good , a lot of flavors he could pick out, but it lacked a bang . The flavors were muted because of so many of them. The best part was the dessert! ! It was called Knafeh. It was a warm crispy shredded phyllo , ricotta cheese filled little round pastry. Drizzled with orange blossom syrup. Wow! We thought that was just super! It only needed a little vanilla ice cream. But just a touch! Kenny has a Lebanese coffee. Like a Turkish coffee . He liked it. It was a little thicker than espresso with a hint of coriander. I tasted it. It was tasty, but too strong for me. We will definitely go back! read more

We asked for something non spicy and ended up getting spicy food. My wife couldn't eat hers and I only ate 1/2 of mine

Food was fantastic. My only disappointment was that the place smelled like a grease trap, the AC wasn't up to speed, and the bathroom was filthy. Made me wonder about the kitchen condition. But, I'd definitely order for take-out. Our server was very friendly and helpful explaining the menu so 5 stars for her. read more

So here's the deal--I walked into Flames already low-key trying to find something to critique. You know, just to keep things balanced in the universe. Plot twist: I failed. Miserably. And deliciously. Let's start with the appetizer: Hummus Awarma. This dish had no business being that good. Creamy hummus topped with sizzling seasoned ground beef and pine nuts, with a hit of tang from pickled veggies--every bite was a textural flex. For the main event, I went with the Chicken Shawarma Tabliyit--and it did not disappoint. Perfectly spiced, juicy shredded chicken wrapped in this warm, sesame-dusted pita that I'd honestly fight someone over. The seasoned fries and hummus on the side made this plate feel like a full-on celebration of flavor. Special shout-out to Amara, my waitress, who was a total gem. Attentive, kind, and on point with every suggestion. If she ever enters a hospitality Olympics, my money's on her taking gold. Atmosphere? Classy without being uptight. Loved the modern-meets-organic vibes--think draped ceiling fabric, warm lighting, and cool details hanging from driftwood. It felt like I was dining in a Mediterranean daydream. Bottom line: I tried to find a reason not to come back. Couldn't. Won't even pretend to keep looking. read more

Loved it! If You love Mediterranean/Lebanese/Turkish food, you cannot go wrong with Flames. Typical dishes include a variety of of shush kabobs, lamb, hummus, etc. the ambiance is upbeat, modern and fresh, although I can do without the belly dancer! All in, a great new place. Put it at the top of your Vero Beach bucket list. read more

We dined here for the first time last week and loved both the food and the service, so we returned today. The tenderloin with hummus, three skewers cooked medium, and the salad were absolutely delicious. The meat was tender and very high quality. We've already recommended this restaurant to our friends. The food is healthy, fresh, and leaves you feeling great -- no heaviness or bloating. Excellent experience. حتّط read more

AMAZING!!! This was an excellent dinner. Server was hilarious and the food was spectacular. I got the Shawarma (gyro) it was excellent. I loved the food. For dessert, genuinely life changing. The pistachio ice cream had rose water or something in it. My little cousin said "Is this what heaven tastes like". My dad said it was life changing and he has traveled around for business at all of these restaurants but this is the beet! Loved the experience and the environment is amazing!!! read more

Very high quality unique cuisine. We have been just a few time with great results. Menu is easy to tackle. Appetizer are pricey so have not tried most of the menu yet. read more

Had an enjoyable evening and good Mediterranean meal - various kebabs and rice at Flames. The food was fresh and tasty but the portions were not huge (served on huge plates though). Would have liked a little more for the money. Service was good and attentive, and decor was nice and modern. I'd like a little more value for the money. Still a solid option in the Vero Beach area. read more

Incredible food, fresh and made with love. Our server Niko was professional helpful and friendly. The Baba ganoush was amazing

This place has it all-ambiance,excellent service and amazing food and drinks. The kebabs are top notch seasoned and perfectly cooked.The black cherry mojito is my favorite cocktail . I was not over the moon about the flavor of the hummus, falafel or the kibbe -it needed something on all fronts spice and citrus were missing .Prepare for the prices-wow-pretty steep but you get nice portions and it is really good! This was my second time and not my last!! read more

Update to original review which we posted when flames had just opened. We thought at that time the food had a lot of potential and tonight we were thoroughly impressed. The decor has been built up. There was plenty of staff who are knowledgeable and nice and quite efficient. The food was really, really great. I had the whole snapper, my husband had the Kafta and my guest had the Sayadieh Fish....we all were delighted! The portions were plentiful! read more

My wife & I had a fabulous dinner tonight at Flames Mediterranean Grill. Service A+, atmosphere modern class , beautiful tree-like sculpture with hanging glass leaves. Authentic Lebanese middle Eastern music at the correct volume. We ordered a hummus with lamb appetizer, super tasty with spices that burst in your mouth. We split a delicious chicken dish, two skewers of dark meat so large we took literally 1/2 home with us. So full we couldn't order desert but we'll start with that when we return. Thank you to Nico, the manager, for advising us on the generous size of portions. Appetizer included salads while the main dish includes vegetables and flavorful rice. This restaurant is a terrific addition to Vero Beach culinary go-to menu! read more

We were welcomed so nicely. Outstanding tenderloin and kafta kabobs. Salad and hummus were delicious!!! Great interior! Eric was our server and terrific! read more

I had lunch at Flames today. It was my first visit and definitely will not be my last. The lunch menu has a decent variety from Gyros to Schwarma and many Kabobs. I ordered the Fresh Salmon Kabob which was accompanied by a salad and hummus. The salmon was at least 6 oz. of center cut which was seasoned just right, moist with just a hint of char on the outside. Absolutely delicious. The hummus is fresh made in house and is quite good. The pita bread is sourced from their family bakery and was also good. The salad was typical Mediterranean and was flavorful and not too salty (many of these salads that I've had in the past are over salted. My server, Amara, was extremely attentive and friendly while not being intrusive as was the hostess who kept my water glass full at just the right time. The menu pricing is appropriate for the quality meal and experience that I enjoyed. Flames is now definitely on my list of restaurants to frequent. read more

My friends and I ate here right after flying in, and it definitely hit the spot! We got the trio kebab plate with shrimp, steak, and chicken. It was big enough to feed all 4 of us, and the shrimp was our favorite. The rice was so buttery and delicious. Our server was also very sweet and walked us through the menu. The ambience was also very nice, definitely a vibe at night. Get the babaghanoush as well! read more

A family of 10, first time attended, with reservations for 6:45 pm. We sat for 2 hours - being served a few appetizers, some water, 2 sodas, and two drinks. We made the decision to leave. No one explained the delay for our meals. The grille and bar was half empty. Takeout was being served. People were coming and going. Bathrooms out of commission. Appetizers were very pricey - a few (like 10 small) calamari; small bowl of humus; 6 small, thin slices of pita bread. As we were leaving, my son was approached by the "manager" ? with an apology. He offered meals in takeout bags. Probably costing over $300. Meals were scant and average quality. Side note: the belly dancer was inappropriate in what she said and in approaching a son-in-law, daughter-in-law and an 11 year old granddaughter. At least the woman was clothed! Will not return! read more

Food was ok , the service was not present at all , I do have a hospitality background and I would make the following recommendations, front of the house floor manager to assist the wait staff in the dinning room. While at your establishment we witnessed a table of 8 people get up and walk out because the food was taking too long to come out. The place has potential with a well trained staff. read more

Just had lunch at Flames, excellent! I had the Gyro sandwich, the best I've ever had, actually the best sandwich or even lunch I've ever had.
