Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in West Flagler

This is our 4th or 5th visit to G&V. we always enjoy the unique outdoors ambiance in a garden setting. We had a really nice and knowledgeable server (Maura?) who was able to give detailed information about some of the cocktails and wines we were interested in as well as the menu offerings.

Bayshore Club is our go-to for all family celebrations and special events. The design of the building is breathtaking and the views of the Coconut Grove marina are stunning. We like the seafood items on the menu having happily sampled the tuna, snapper, salmon, fish dip, mahi, and grilled shrimp. Service is always top-notch, and the bar scene is lively and fun. It is truly an "only in Miami" dining experience.

Doya – A Must-Try for Greek & Turkish-Inspired Meze Recently dined at Doya, a fantastic spot that blends Greek and Turkish flavors with a menu designed for sharing. The restaurant specializes in both cold and hot meze, making it perfect for a communal dining experience. For cold meze, I highly recommend the traditional fava bean spread, eggplant (babaganoush), green goddess dip (similar to tzatziki), and shrimp carpaccio—all fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Among the hot meze, we tried the rib steak over the wood-fired grill, which, while cooked well, needed a bit more seasoning. However, the grilled Dorado fish was outstanding—perfectly cooked and full of flavor. We rarely order dessert, but the chocolate mousse with cherries was a standout and an absolute must-try. Service at Doya is team-oriented, delightful, and impressively quick. The food comes out fast, making for a seamless dining experience without feeling rushed. Overall, Doya delivers a wonderful dining experience, with a well-executed menu, great service, and a lively atmosphere. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore high-quality Mediterranean flavors in a shareable format.

Perry’s Steakhouse made our Valentine’s Day lunch an unforgettable experience! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with warm hospitality and an elegant yet comfortable ambiance—perfect for a romantic celebration. The food was nothing short of exceptional. We started with their signature Pork Chop Bites, which were incredibly tender and flavorful. For the main course, the filet mignon was cooked to absolute perfection, melting in our mouths with every bite. The lobster bisque was rich and creamy, adding an indulgent touch to our meal. The service was impeccable—attentive without being intrusive. Our server ensured our glasses were never empty and even surprised us with a beautifully plated dessert to celebrate the occasion. Perry’s truly knows how to elevate a special moment with incredible food, top-tier service, and a wonderful atmosphere. Whether for Valentine’s Day or any other special occasion, it’s an experience worth repeating!

We made a reservation for Monday night. The dining room was mostly empty, so there were plenty of tables right on the water. It's an amazing experience to sit there and watch the boats go by so close. We had martinis with all those stuffed with blue cheese because that's what she likes. We also had a Kasserie cheese appetizer, which they flambé at the table that was excellent. This is a great place to go with a date
