Established in 2016.
La Vie Mediterranean Grill was born to express our desire to make you experience the true spirit of the Middle East, right here in south Florida. The interior design of La Vie is a celebration of the rich cultural interactions that have shaped the region. Our executive chef’s experience of food embraces many geographical and cultural boundaries. His dishes are inspired by the fresh and local ingredients he finds at farmer’s markets to mix with our organic imported spices. Our menu is Irresistible, healthy and loved by every guest. Come visit us, and immerse yourself in not only good food and conversation, but in a vibe that truly captures the essence of the Levant.
Classic fare served in a Middle Eastern–inspired dining room with live belly dancing some nights.

Totally exceeded expectations. Unassuming, humble facade; like an oasis, you open the doors & inside awaits an impressive jewel-toned, dreamy dining room. Spacious & perfectly decorated. If the hostess asks, opt for a window table if dining with up to 4. Otherwise, you get sat in an awkwardly placed middle row of 2-tops or a communal table.
The menu was easy to navigate with some nice deals & an intriguing cocktail flight. Try it! There’s something for every taste. Good portions & good service, too. Everything delicious.
I randomly chose this restaurant to celebrate my friend’s birthday looking for something different in an area that is a sea of chains. I chose wisely, she loved the experience. She jokingly said she would’ve liked a belly dancer & to her surprise, one appeared & put on a great show.
Would definitely recommend especially for special occasions.

We had a wonderful experience at La Vie! My friends and I went for lunch and tried a variety of dishes — kebbeh, hommus, falafel, spinach pie, and the grills. Everything was delicious and tasted authentically prepared.
The lady who served us was amazing — warm, professional, and incredibly helpful. She really made the experience even better.
The seating area is nice and spacious, making it a comfortable place to relax and enjoy a meal. We also learned that they’ll have a belly dance night in a few days, which sounds like a fun addition to the atmosphere.

Great Lebanese cuisine and a memorable Valentine’s experience. We booked a 6pm reservation and were so glad we managed to get one at the last minute. We went for the Valentine’s Day candlelight dinner special — $75 per person for a four-course menu — and it was absolutely worth it. The food was exceptional from start to finish, full of rich flavors and beautifully presented. We were also able to catch the belly dance performance (offered between 7–9pm), which was fantastic and truly made the evening feel extra special. A wonderful spot for a romantic night out with great food and atmosphere.

La Vie is now my favorite Mediterranean restaurant in SoFlo. The food is incredible, however the service and ambiance is the real X factor. The location is pristine with stained glass chandeliers, aesthetic dishware, and well mannered/dressed staff. The staff know what they’re doing.. ASK FOR THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS! (Or take mine, the Farrouj Meshwi). Go to date spot moving forward. Also belly dancing which is a plus.

The restaurant is nicely decorated in a Mediterranean theme. Inside had Low lighting making it very romantic for our date night. They had a free belly dancer show (Tip accordingly). Our waiter Phillip was super friendly and made us feel very comfortable. He was knowledgeable about the menu recommendations but not pushy. The food was excellent. Prices are very reasonable. My wife and I will be returning.

Easy location to get to right off of 95. I loved the large, free parking lot. Walking in I was transported to Lebanon. Wasn’t expecting the ornate decor. Service was very friendly, food was great. This is a good place for large groups as the dining room can accommodate many. Drinks came out slow, and it took a while to get the check but I think that’s a culture thing. Would definitely return.
