Baklava Factory

I was SO happily surprised after randomly ordering (thanks to Unilocal reviews)! I love Lebanese food and find it’s not easy to find good options in Miami. I ordered kibe, beef kebabs, lebneh, hummus and greek salad and really enjoyed each order! I had actually asked to replace hummus with lebneh and got both– thanks! I am reordering tonight!

I haven’t seen any other place like here staff are friendly and Baklavas are awesome OMG!

Nice place, great food and very good prices. I went for lunch with my friends while visiting Miami. The lentil soup was very tasty and only $ 4 (tasted exactly like my mom’s)
Our server was Vanessa, a very friendly and attentive young lady. She made great recommendations concerning the food. Overall, we had a very pleasant experience at this restaurant.

The lamb with almond rice was very tasty! We also got a seared tuna avocado roll and we devoured the roll in seconds. Went on a Wednesday afternoon. Order the mint lemonade. It was refreshing. Will definitely be back for more!

I ordered for delivery through Eat24 and I never received my order. I called the restaurant and they said they would get back to me but they didn’t. I had to call three times and eventually cancelled the order. I would not order for delivery ever again.

I ordered for delivery through eat24hours, after waiting 1h and a half, i contacted them to check what was going on and the response i got was the restaurant wasnt able to process the order due to internal issues. Thanks for waiting me wait 1h and a half for nothing.

Shwarma was very well packed, good ingredients and made with love
Service was outstanding
Falafel is ok
I’ll come back

Ordered the Indian kabob platter this evening for delivery. While I began my meal eating the rice, I extracted a staple from my mouth!!! Called the restaurant and spoke to the so– called manager «Jose Diaz» who, after much urging, offered to reimburse me for the cost of the rice! Are you kidding me? The owner, Patricia Diaz, no relation supposedly, was not available. Sent them a picture (staple prominent on the plate), and no response.
This place is dangerous– and Jose Diaz is a joke!
See the picture of the staple in my meal, posted!

I used to like their food and service. Regularly ordered delivery. Las couple of times, all the food has arrived scrambled up. The kibbeh and salad and rice and hummus, all scrambled up in the edge of the container. I will upload a picture of how my food arrived. Never ordering from this place again!

While its outward appearance is that of a Chinese restaurant (aka Chinois Chinois), there is a hidden middle eastern gem inside with quite a varied menu.
I tried the Rosto «sandwich» — a pita wrap with roasted lamb, garlic spread and French fries. It was fantastic — the lamb had good flavor and was super moist. The fries add an interesting textural component to the wrap.
I will be back to taste other items on the menu.

I was surprised that any resteraunt would try to serve mediterranean/​middle eastern and chinese and sushi. I was hoping that if I ordered the mediterranean food it would be okay since the restaurant was probably originally mediterranean food. But unfortunately the food was really sub par and way overpriced. I got the veggie platter with hummus, babaganoush (sp.?), stuffed grape leaves, and falafel. All of which I usually love but at this place, it was pretty boring. My fiancé got a beef shawarma pita wrap which was dry and tasteless. The baklava was probably the I’ve ever had.

You get a lot of food for a good price. And the best thing is that the food is amazingly delicious. Glad I found this place when I was visiting.

Inexpensive and good Lebanese food with limited free parking in the attached private lot. The servers aren’t as attentive as they could be but they make up for it in friendliness.
For starters, the Italian salad is a nice size of mixed greens, fresh herbs, tomato, cucumber, gorgonzola and fresh walnuts. The honey balsamic dressing is great. It was so filling that I ended up bagging half.
The vegetarian platter is a great deal and large enough to share. You get a big plate of tabouleh, five fresh hot falafels, three stuffed dolmades, hummus, baba ganoush and warm pita bread. I polished off all my baba ganoush, love that stuff. The falafel was also great. The dolmades were non-​oily and had nice acidity. Overall, I’d order this again.
To finish, I felt adventurous and ordered the Lebanese cheese knafeh, just because I wanted to know what it is. Imagine a bland soft stringy cheese topped with a buttery sweet semolina batter, baked, served warm and soaked in orange blossom syrup. Very sweet and floral tasting. It was certainly interesting but not sure I’d order it again. They have about five different kinds of homemade baklava, that is probably a safer bet.

This is the best places
Delicious food and exellent delivery services.
Me encanto el chiken shawarme, fetuses salad y el delivery super fast.

Where do I start. We ordered delivery and that was the only thing that went right.
We ordered a greek salad and the following items were missing from the salad — calamata olives, pepperoncini, and citrus dressing.
The Tzatziki was $ 2 for a dollop.
The hummus was okay, nothing special. Go to Mykonos for good hummus.
The Chicken Taouk Sandwich was okay, a bit dry.
Overpriced for what we got.

I recently came to Baklava Factory for lunch with my boyfriend. We should have left as soon as we saw they had combined forces with an adjoining Chinese restaurant, Chinois Chinois. Mediterranean and Chinese don’t exactly go together.
We started with the grape leaves stuffed with meat as an appetizer. They were very dry and bland. Even though I was hungry I had one and declined any more. We also had a side of tzatziki with pita bread. The pita bread was served cold and was also bland. The tzatziki was okay, nothing great and was very small.
For an entrée I had the rosto sandwich, which was lamb with sauce, fries, and pickles in a pita wrap. I ate it because I was starving but it was unimpressive. Even less impressive were the 2 bone chunks I discovered as I was eating. My boyfriend had some form of General Tso’s chicken. He had a few pieces but did not care for it so he didn’t finish.
We came here with a Living Social deal and had about $ 10 left to spend so we ordered baklava to go. This was the best food item we had and it was only okay. I have had much better baklava. This was very small and dry.
I would avoid eating at this place for Mediterranean AND Chinese food. It kind of blows my mind that other reviewers are raving about this place.
The only positive I can point out is that the staff was nice.

I go to this place at least once a month. The food is amazing! I recommend all of the platters. However, my favorite is the veggie platter and their lemonade is delicious!
The staff is always pleasant and attentive. The restaurant is always nice & clean and the portions are big!

This is the one of the best places I have tried in Miami so far to get my Mediterranean, Armenian, Persian Fix; Shwarma, kabob, falafel, hummus, baba ganouj, Armenian coffee.
Have ordered all of the above on separate occasions and all have been fantastic.
On the pricier side than I am used to paying for in California, but they do give you large portions, and quality is good. And hey, I live in Miami now. Supply and Demand I suppose.
People really should give this place a shot, if they know and love this type of food. In California I was spoiled with so many options and have very high standards when it comes to this cousine.
This is 1 of more than 7 of places I have tried in S Florida. And one of only 2 who have deserved a good review thus far.
4 stars because some of the favorites are not on menu that are staples and the pita seems to be store purchased, not made at location.

I loved eating food from here. UNTIL TODAY!
Placed an order for delivery through the Eat24 app at 6:58pm thinking that in about an hour, as they say (45−60min delivery estimate) I was going to be eating my usual Indian Beef Kabob.
Well, an hour later I tried contacting them through the app since the time was up, they said delivery guy was on its way and should be there in about 5 mins or less!
1hour and 15min later, had to call directly to the restaurant to see what was going on and of course they were like «I’m sorry about that, let me call the delivery guy and I’ll call you back».
By this time I was getting mad.
I waited 15 mins without a call back, so called them again. «I’m sorry, we’ve been pretty busy today but your food it’s out for delivery and should be there any time soon». At this point I’m already like «Dude! That’s not what I paid for, but still willing to wait maybe another 15mins» (I’m such a nice guy), I was hungry and about to get Hangry.
Oh and the lady after talking with her for the 4^th time she pretty much said to me «there’s only one delivery guy for all the orders, it is what it is»… :O
Like if I HAD to wait because I’ve already paid with my CC.
Anyways. To make it short, waited a total amount of 2 and ½ hours for the food I ordered, called them to cancel it and the manager still has the balls to tell me «I’m sorry for the delay blah blah blah I can give you 20% off for your next order». No thanks, I already called Eat24 to cancel the order, this is unbelievable! And he goes «I’ll tell you something, if you don’t like the food and if the food it’s not warm (REALLY??? After 2 hours) I will give you your money back… Yeah, right!
My answer was pretty calmed and educated: «I understand how busy you can be but it’s not my problem if you have only one guy for all the delivery orders, so please cancel it or I will have Eat24 do it for you».
OF COURSE, I had to make one last call to Eat24 since he wouldn’t work with me.
After I cancelled it, on my way to Mc Donald’s (yeah, had to eat crap because of this BS) the manager calls me offering 50% off. Again, NO THANKS!
And just before ordering my food at Mc Donald’s, the delivery guy finally called «hey I’m here with your food». They were still trying to give me cold food that was cruising around Miami for TWO HOURS AND A HALF, just so they won’t lose a sale.
«You can go back to the rest, I already cancelled. Thanks»
And then once again, the manager calls me back again saying that he gets me and he’s very ashamed but «threatening» me that if I don’t get my food, they can ask for my cc information to charge me because «I did placed an order with them»…
And that’s what they call «Customer Service».
For real man, learn how to manage your own business or if not, at least do not offer delivery service if you’re short of employees and you’re going to send the guy with 4+ orders I’m guessing, KNOWING that he won’t get there on time… So then the poor guy won’t get tips because of YOU!
HONESTLY, Get your Sh*t back together…
Ps: I’m rating only one (1) star because I have no choice .l.

+review of delivery only+ 1÷8÷2014
The food arrived in a mess, it was like they just threw everything in the bag and brought it to me. The bag was even dripping… The delivery guy was really nice and apologetic so i let it go.
Now the food… ehhh… i think next time ill try it in the restaurant since it has so many good review. For me the food i got delivered was a waste of money.
Food:
Grape leave with meat: (¹⁄₅) bland…
Indian Beef kabobs with curry (¹⁄₅): overcooked, dry and bland. The curry sauce could not save it.
Armenian Sujuk kabob (⁰⁄₅) it was not spicy as mention and hard to chew since it was really dry
The only good thing about the meal was the hummus but the pita bread was hard and stale…
Faboush salad didnt try it i just threw everything away.
Overall (¹⁄₅) 1 for the hummus and delivery guy. Other then that it was a waste of $ 30 for a platter with added Sujuk kabob and grape leave with meat.
