“ We had lunch at Babylon Lounge and Restaurant and it definitely lived up to the hype. The Grilled Octopus was tender with a nice char and flavor, and the Charr-Grilled Lamb Chops were juicy, perfectly seasoned, and cooked just right. If you’re into bold Mediterranean flavors, this spot delivers. They started us off with a small dish of olive oil, sesame, and thyme that came with the bread — simple but incredibly tasty. One of those things you don’t expect but end up wanting more of. Sit outside if you can — the vibe is relaxed but still has energy, especially with the music and the setting. We wrapped it up with a pot of tea, which was the perfect way to wind down, and there’s hookah available if you’re in the mood to chill a little longer. Great food, great vibe, and solid service. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in Miami and want something with atmosphere and flavor. ”
