When we came up with the idea to open a Serbian restaurant in Miami Beach, we were set on a couple of things. We wanted to offer our guests a warm and relaxing environment where they can feel at home and we wanted to introduce them to a Balkan cuisine that’s rich not only in flavor, but in tradition as well. We invite you to take a gourmet history tour and discover why are more and more people in Miami Beach falling in love with Serbian food. Spicy and unique dishes like the Mediterranean Pljeskavica, Goulash, and Cevapi will activate all your senses while eating. Of course, a meal is not complete without a glass of our premium Rakija brandy. Just remember to sip and enjoy.

    It is the best Turkish restaurant; the music is excellent, and the staff is very friendly. The only minor issue was that when the main dish was brought to our table it was cold.

    Good vibes, good food, good people—what more can you ask for? El Turco is a hidden gem in Miami, offering authentic Turkish flavors in a warm and inviting setting. The outdoor ambiance under the beautiful tree adds to the relaxing atmosphere, making it a perfect spot to enjoy a meal. From the freshly baked locksmith sandwich to the creamy hummus and perfectly cooked meatball dishes, every bite was flavorful and satisfying. The künefe with ice cream was the perfect way to end the meal—crispy, sweet, and indulgent. Pairing it with traditional Turkish tea made the experience even more authentic. On top of that, the staff Mya was welcoming and friendly, making us feel right at home. Whether you’re a fan of Turkish cuisine or just looking for a great dining experience in Miami, El Turco is a must-visit!
