Mylos Mediterrean Restaurant

Note to owner: Keep your wife away from your establishment.
**To read up on the main reason we left, go to where things got weird.
Upon arrival, my parents and I were seated right away but it was all downhill from there.
The restaurant consist of a two-​part dining area with the kitchen separating both sections. One section dark & cozy… the other, brighter with a full bar.
Anyway, although the brighter dining area was practically empty, we were seated at the last available table of the smaller room where all the tables were occupied, along with a party of 15+ occupying the remainder of the area. We initially dealt with it BUT 20mns later, additional guests of the party continued to arrive & the staff continued to seat them up against us, after we had been served, and ultimately crowding us in and constantly interrupting our initial course (fried calamari/​bottle of CabSav).
Again no biggie. I simply followed our server away & politely asked if we could be seated in the less occupied area. He acknowledged my request & offered apologies. I warmly stated «it’s understandable, they’re clearly having a family gathering & would like their group to remain together. Why don’t we make some room for them and simply relocate?»
The server acknowledged my suggestion & we were discretely relocated.
So now, after being seated in the larger area for an another 20mns, we were still waiting on our 2^nd app (which was ordered at the same time as our first, along with our initial bottle of wine) so we decided to order another bottle & kindly reminded our server that we were still awaiting our 2^nd app. We also let him know that we were aware of how busy he was due to the large party & that we should perhaps order our main course, so we did.
About 10mns later, our server returned with our 2^nd bottle, opened it… but still no app. So we continued to drink, patiently waiting for it and now, our main course as well.
It finally arrived15mns later, but by now we were ½ way through our second wine bottle which we were kinda’ hoping to have with our main course.
Remember, this was over an hour after we had been seated & by now I noticed that my father had become a little irate, so I attempted to unwind him by suggesting that I was nonetheless enjoying their company & that I was in no hurry, but as our waiter repeatedly passed by our table without any further affirmation, my father finally managed to get his attention and firmly; but diplomatically suggested that he follow up on our order, then excused himself and proceeded to the restroom.
**So this is when things got really weird & I finally drew the line.
As my father was away from the table, my mother & I continued to discuss personal matters when out of nowhere, a random woman wearing a scarf, walked slowly by our table, stopped, gave us both a peculiar look, & proceeded to walk away. «Do you know her?» I asked my mother. She replied with «Doesn’t look familiar but perhaps I’ve dealt with her in the past.», so we ignored her & continued our conversation.
Shortly after, with my father still away from the table & still waiting on our food, I decided to get up to get a copy of the NewTimes in order to distract him for when he’d return, but upon my return to the table, I noticed the same woman back at our table, only now in unusually close proximity to my mother and thought to myself, «oh, guess it turns out that she does know her afterall.
Well get this. As I approached the table, I could clearly hear her scolding my mother & using harsh language as my mother sat in confusion. Naturally, I interrupted her and firmly asked «What is going on here?! Who are you & why are you insulting my mother?!» In slurring words she stated «I am the owner’s wife & we have cameras!!» WTF?! I quickly noticed what appeared to be an intoxicated female & replied with, «Ma’am, what are you accusing us of & why have you interrupted our dinner? She disgracefully continued «I’m the owner’s wife & I’m calling him right now!!» I then replied with «Excuse me madam, did we request your assistance?!» & asked again «Who are you & why have you interrupted our dinner?». Well, this time, as she staggered away, phone to ear, she disclosed her name, which I could barely understand (Nidia, Lidia or Lehya, not sure).
My father returned to the table as the commotion escalated & was clearly confused as well. At the same time, the delirious woman stumbled to the bar area & eventually disappeared as one of the servers came to us attempting to smooth things out, so I turned it down a notch & proceeded to ask him who she was. «She’s the owner’s wife.» he reluctantly replied as our food arrived. Well that wasn’t the end of it but I’m running out of character space here so we demanded our check, paid for what we consumed & attempted to leave without further incidents but encountered a few other issues on our way out.
Needless to say, our experience here was just horrible & we would obviously not recommend Mylos.

Service and hummus was fantastic which is the only reason that Mylos gets a second star.
1) Expensive for what it is
2) Authentic? Really?
3) Frozen Vegetables that are microwaved
4) Grilled Chicken «Marks» not grilled.
5) Food took forever
Ugh! We live right around the corner and will not be coming back… ever. We wanted it to be good–

Mylos offers truly delicious food and attentive and polite service. Been there a couple of times and experiences have been consistently great. It is open from 7am to 11pm so it is a good option for any time of the day. While everything I have ordered has been delicious and well prepared, my favourite dishes so far are: Grilled Wild Salmon Filet, New York Steak, Lamb Chops and Lentils Soup.
It is a good location on Ponce de Leon Blvd with easy parking away Miracle Mile but still in the heart of Coral Gables within walking distance of major attractions.

The service was good but the food was terrible! I asked for the chicken Kebab and got 4 pieces, one sliced of green pepper, 2 of onion and half of plate of white rice! I paid $ 15.00 for this!!! NOT WORTH IT.

It’s a great place. Family style. The customer service smiles a lot and does not rush you.
We are a large group so I basically recommend everything on the menu because we ordered different things. The seafood is great. The Gyro’s is good. The white wine is fantastic –photo in the post. The snapper great. The salmon is great. The spanakopita are great too. The Mythos beer also good. Anyway, they’re bringing more food out and I should probably now join the group conversation and leave the phone aside and eat some more! So, in short… It’s all good and I highly recommend it!

This place is great. I don’t understand why it has any bad reviews at all! I work next door and have been going for years. I am of Mediterranean descent and think the food is quite authentic! They cater to all the real Greeks working on board cruise ships…

I am not a connoisseur of Greek food, but I thoroughly enjoyed the Moussaka and the chef came himself to make sure we enjoyed our meals. the portions were huge and the service was attentive.

awesome place, best greek in town. if you dont think so. i will fight you. ask for angelo!

This place is a joke to Greek food. I’ve been here twice, with about a year and a half between each visit. Each time I have come the food was not authentic at all and really appeared like they used the cheapest quality food.
I ordered a Gyro platter and my salad came with a small cube of feta, my meat was not well cooked and too soft for «gyro texture,» and the pita bread had grill marks but tasted too soft and not fresh. When I asked for more feta they did not give it to me, and then I asked for more tzatsiki sauce and they gave me an attitude about it, but then brought me more.
Our waitress was very inattentive, not knowledgeable on the menu and the food and she was part of the reason why the experience at this restaurant was definitely not good.
Never again.

Best gyro in Miami, hands down. I get it at least once every few weeks. They’re greek salad is also amazing, I don’t eat sea food but my friend ordered the octopus last time and couldn’t stop saying how great it was. The service was quick and clean and it’s located centrally. I’m not sure what the people that put a bad review were talking about? I highly recommend this spot.

The food needs an over haul. I ordered the chicken Kebab and it came out raw. The other dishes had no taste. The wait staff were very nice and polite. To make along story short it is part of a hotel and the food is less than mediocre.

Where should I start… The service is terrible, a Greek restaurant that does not serve Hummus, really? Or maybe I should start with the Mariachi Band playing as loud as can be! Really? Mariachis in a Greek Restaurant. Or maybe the manager reprimanding the waitress so that she can hear him over the Mariachis and she explaining her self so loud I can hear every word at our table. Or maybe the air conditioning vent dripping on us? Or maybe that they add the 20% tip to a check of a (2) adult (1) child party, ahead of time? Or maybe the fact that the portions were too small and they serve cold Cuban bread with butter instead of hummus and pita? I’m conclusion this place was TERRIBLE!!!

Very surprised by this restaurant. It is very clean and elegant. The food was very good. I had the minestrone soup and the rest of the party had the house special soup. Both very good. Had the gyro platters and chicken shish-​k-​babobs. They were good but the chicken plate was overpriced. The bread and Greek yogurt sauce were AWESOME. I do recommend this restaurant.

This is one to avoid. During yesterday’s visit, I ordedered the leg of lamb, it was 3 pieces of unidentifiable meat, smothered in a thick sweetish brown sauce and full of gelatinous nerves. Absolutely inedible. My companions had the fish, which had been cooked to extinction and was flaky as cereal. The waitress didn’t know how to filet it so there were bones all over the place. I left half my meat because I couldn’t eat it. The fish, too, was left almost entirely. Awful place, one to avoid at all costs.
