We had a wnderful time at the Boatyard. Our server was amazing and attentive the entire evening. We had a great table where we could watch the Chef orchestrate the kitchen masterfully. The food was excellent from the Calamari which you could cut with your tongue to the Caesar Salad which was dressed perfectly to the Surf and Turf that was superb. The ultimate was the side of onion rings we ordered. They were so delicious. Highly recommend! The drinks were fun and festive as well. We will be back when we are in Ft Lauderdale
