    If you’re looking for an authentic taste of Greece with an unforgettable dining experience, Mykonos Restaurant is the place to be. From the moment you step inside, you’re transported to a Mediterranean paradise, with its elegant yet cozy decor, soft lighting, and a charming ambiance that perfectly captures the essence of the Greek islands. The food is simply outstanding—fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Whether you’re indulging in the perfectly grilled octopus, the rich and creamy moussaka, or the fresh seafood dishes that melt in your mouth, every bite is a delight. The flavors are authentic, and the ingredients taste like they’ve been sourced straight from the Aegean. Beyond the food, the service is top-notch. The staff is warm, welcoming, and incredibly attentive without being intrusive. They’re more than happy to offer recommendations, pair your meal with the perfect Greek wine, and ensure that your dining experience is exceptional from start to finish. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just looking for a wonderful meal, Mykonos Restaurant delivers on all fronts. A must-visit for anyone who loves great food, stellar service, and a beautiful atmosphere. Highly recommended!

    Overall, the experience was really good. Food, music, and ambiance were great. Wish the layout and seating arrangements were better, but we had a great time. Service was slow at first, but got better as the night went on. Would definitely come back.

    The ambiance is energetic, the food value is there in portion size, and the flavors are on point. It's not the place for a quiet, romantic meal, and the vibe definitely caters to a younger crowd but no complaints. It was very crowded (Valentine's Day), and a group of 5 waiting for a table decided to stand so close to our table that they might as well have joined us. I asked the server if she could perhaps ask them, politely, to move closer to the bar. She graciously asked a manager who came by a few minutes later and asked if they could clear the area for the servers. They moved away--the staff handled the matter deftly and we were quite pleased (Thank you!!). We'd certainly dine here again when visiting Ft Lauderdale (or elsewhere they're located).

    The view, food and vibe at the House on the River was great. Our server Macarena and the hostess Pilar were very polite, professional and attentive on our visit on Valentine's day. 10 out of 10 service. We will be coming back.
