Our Story

Two Decades of Mediterranean Craft

Kalamata was born from a simple belief: that great food begins with great ingredients, prepared with care and served with heart. Our chef brings over twenty years of culinary experience to every plate that leaves our kitchen.

We source fresh produce from local farmers' markets and let the natural flavors of the Mediterranean guide our cooking. From our slow-grilled lamb chops to our hand-ground falafel, every dish carries the warmth and honesty of a tradition passed down through generations.

Whether you're joining us for a leisurely dinner on Washington Avenue or taking our food home, the experience is the same — fresh, flavorful, and made with genuine care.

Best hummus in South Florida, hands down. Creamy, fresh garlic, perfect olive oil drizzle. The pita is always warm too.
