    This amazing place is a hidden gem. The menu is diverse with many mostly Greek dishes, but it's not your typical Greek joint food. There's a great mix of mezze fusion and traditional dishes. The quality is exceptional. I've never had a less than stellar dish at Barmeli. They also have a very thoughtful and reasonably priced wine menu with several Greek options. We went with a group of 6 and ordered 12-14 tapas to share along with a few bottles of Greek wine. Everything was excellent. Second visit was just as great. Now, we dine they're regularly. The ambience, especially on weekends, feels like you are in Europe. The Spanish guitar player adds to the character and it's not too loud for good conversation. Service is prompt and friendly. I would 100% recommend to others and always look forward to my next visit.

    Barmeli69 - A cozy, charming wine bar and Mediterranean bistro. 💜proud to patronize this women-owned establishment serving delicious and unique Greek tapas, well paired wines, cozy indoor and outdoor seating and live music on select nights. Exceptional service. Beautiful and eccentric washroom decor. You must go.

    Lovely Mediterranean restaurant on biscayne with great dishes. Apps are big(the feta cheese is good enough for two people). The ambiance of the restaurant make it great spot for a date night. Great selection of wines from family owned/sustainable wineries. Happy hour looks great too!

    My boyfriend and I love this place. Cute for dates. Good wine selection, delicious food. We have gone several times, and the best they have is their live music on the weekends. However, sometimes it can get very loud inside. Food: I will recommend their octopus and go with their recommended wines, never disappointed. Their hummus selection is great, too. Plates are small, so it is a good idea to try different ones and share Wines: great selection with decent prices Ambiance: small location, we really live to eat at the bar. It is always crowded so make a reservation

    I really liked the food and the services. It’s a loudy place full of good vibes and nice people. We tried the mix of dips, the couliflowers and the lamb musaka. All was tasty and with nice presentation. I will come back.

    I’ve heard some great things about this restaurant and decided to give it a try tonight for some light apps for date night. To begin, the restaurant is gorgeous on the inside, the low lighting definitely gave the interior a romantic feel. Both waitresses greeted us and because the restaurant wasn’t too busy they gave us an option of where we wanted to sit. We ordered a glass of wine each and had 4 apps while we chatted. We ordered the hummus, prosciutto wrapped dates, escargot and the stuffed grape leaves. The hummus was clearly homemade and delicious - served with a ton of warm pita bread. I haven’t had grape leaves in the longest time and I was really looking forward to them and they did not disappoint. The dates were also super delicious! All and all I would love to come back to this restaurant and try some more food! 10/10 recommend

    We had a great Work Office dinner. Music was enjoyable, service was good, and food was delicious. Just a not frequent but avoidable mistake with my main course. I believe he was the manager who took care of it appropriately. A good place for dinner overall.

    Taste of Sicily night. 6 course menu with 5 different wines from Sicily. Awesome experience. Wonderful staff, the food was delicious, the ambiance was lovely. Barmeli is becoming one of my favorite restaurants in Miami.

    Incredible place, incredible service and really good prices. The food is amazing, you have to try everything, the greek salad and grapes leaves were really good. I will come back many times.

    One of my favorite restaurants in miami — it’s a perfect date spot, or even a perfect spot to celebrate with 10 of your friends for a special occasion. I love this place because the food is always consistently delicious, and the service is quick and attentive. We love the Greek wine they have by the glass, and the ambiance :)

    BarMelli has to be my favorite neighborhood restaurant, I am a regular that comes here all the time! They have perfectly prepared Mediterranean dishes served in a really cozy and energetic dining room. The prices for food and wine are very reasonable for the GREAT quality. The staff is awesome and Liza, the owner, is so much fun! I make new friends basically every time I go to BarMelli. I HIGHLY recommend this spot

    This was the best meal I have ever had in Miami. It tasted like I was back in Europe. The food quality was amazing. Incredible homemade dishes and a really relaxing and intimate setting. It felt like a dream.

    Barmeli is a quiet little spot that will knock your socks off! The happy hour is absolutely incredible. I'd recommend getting all the dips to share. You really can't go wrong. They have fantastic selection of natural wines, along with some delicious orange wines. Sangria was bright and fruity. The owner even sat down with us to share a moment and a glass of wine. Made us all feel right at home.
