Alacati Mediterranean Restaurant

My daughter and I stopped by Alacati Mediterranean Restaurant after our cruise — and wow, what a find! The Iskender kebab was one of the best we’ve had in the U.S. — thinly sliced, perfectly seasoned, and generously served. I’ve lived in the States for over 30 years and visited many Turkish restaurants, but this one truly stands out. The service was excellent — friendly, fast, and professional. The manager even checked on us personally while managing a large group, which shows how much they care about every guest. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, beautifully decorated with Ottoman lamps and Mediterranean details that create a cozy dining experience. We’re so glad we visited — fantastic food, great people, and a beautiful place. 🌿 Highly recommended — can’t wait to return with the wh

The restaurant has a great atmosphere and overall solid dishes. The lamb chops and ribeye were excellent — tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. However, the grilled octopus was disappointing — it didn’t taste fresh, it was NOT FRESHLY GRILLED and had a funky flavor on the skin. Everything else was enjoyable, and service was good, but the octopus definitely missed the mark.

We came in for dinner late because it was nearby. We discovered an amazing Mediterranean restaurant with very fresh food. The Iskender was outstanding, and the pide was pretty good and very fresh. The restaurant atmosphere feels very inviting but also elegant. We will definitely be back to try more of the menu.

Phenomenal dinner experience. Service, food, ambiance all 10/10. Cannot recommend highly enough. This was the highlight of my week in Florida!

Although the lentil soup was slightly burnt, the rest of the food was outstanding. I particularly like the pilaf in the Adana and the bread they brought to each table. When ingredients are fresh and authentic, it shows a significant difference from restaurants that sell factory made shawarma/ kebab with extremely low quality meat. Service on the other hand was bad/ there's none. 5 waiters standing at the front door chatting with each other and none was checking on customers at 5.30pm. Then I realized they pre charged mandatory 18% tips. Nice spot for food if you don't mind paying tips for no service.
