Atlantikos

3.7/5 After hearing about the authentic Greek food in Atlantikos, we decided to give it a try. To begin, the food was great and the flavors were very authentic. From the lamb meatballs, to the squid, to the spinach, and olive oil, all the dishes were great. The lamb was good but nothing that you can’t have in other Mediterranean restaurants. The reason for the 3.7 rating is because of the service. After we were seated, it seemed like we just kept waiting around for our server, mind you, there were only a few tables occupied when we arrived. They also seemed to be disorganized with the orders and kept bringing dishes that weren’t ours which made for awkward exchanges.

The restaurant decor is simple but tasteful, the staffs uniform is actually very nice but as the time unfolds, we realized that the restaurant is not fine dining at all, the view of the pool really speaks for itself, families eating in their bathing suits right on the other side of the window. Choosing a booth would have been more enjoyable. We tried the MIAMI Spice menu, the menu had nice choices; crispy octopus, lamb meatballs, branzino and Black Angus sirloin. The food was as expected, very good. We decided to try a Greek white wine, our waiter Obi was very helpful and suggested trying the wine and since neither of us knew anything about Greek wines, we accepted. The wine was very good but pricy, expect to pay hotel prices. I was a bit disappointed with the clientele, the St Regis used to be elegant, chic & sophisticated, I found the opposite on this visit, sadly. Overall, I think Its a lunch option.

We had a 3 course Miami spice lunch here. I got octopus for the start, branzino as main and pana cota for a desert. I paired everything with a tequila cocktail. Everything was delicious. Service was good. They do validation for valet parking that brings your fee to $15 per car. Excelent place to explore as it is in a beautiful St Regis hotel.
