Price: Expensive

• Mediterranean • Lauderdale Beach

Booked 4 times today

Thasos is a haven for those who don’t want to speed through moments in time. Surrender to the inviting yet transportive environment and allow your imagination to wander to the allure of the Greek isles. A place where pretense diminishes and guests are invited to unwind from the frenzy of life’s distractions by taking one back to a place of cascading blues and pearly whites: welcome to Thasos. Sample delights inspired by the long-standing culinary traditions of the Greek culture presented with a fresh, modern twist. The menu is reminiscent of the undulating textures in the Mediterranean. Just as ancient fishermen were inspired by the vast oceanic beauty, we were inspired to capture the true essence of the sea. The menu honors Thasos' lush landscape and exterior, by blending the boundaries between nature and artifice.

Not only was this restaurant, classy, elegant, the food was outstanding!! We traveled an hour away to enjoy the experience, and it was absolutely worth it! The work staff was very warming and welcoming. The food was out of this world!!! They are very generous with their portions! I had the lobster ravioli with chunks of lobster around it extremely delicious. If you love clams, I suggest the Vongole Rogeanata it was extremely tasty and to top it off dip your bread in it… Delicious!! We also had the mozzarella en carrozza, outstanding!!! We ended the night enjoying the beautiful outside bar having a few cocktails. I didn’t want to leave. Cheers!!
