Best Casual Restaurants in Dania Beach

This is the perfect spot for comforting traditional Italian in a casual environment before a show at the comedy club. Highly recommended and will definitely be back.

Great dining on a busy Friday night/Valentine’s evening but with reservations from opentable we had no wait and were seated immediately. Although very loud, it’s lively and service great. Waitress was very nice and drinks delicious, bartender that night was a point. Food very well prepared just as we requested and came out relatively quick for such a busy night. Noise level definitely up n up and smoke smell not my preference but less obviously noticeable any the dining areas. Price well over priced but meal portions were big. Drinks very nicely served.

The ambiance is energetic, the food value is there in portion size, and the flavors are on point. It's not the place for a quiet, romantic meal, and the vibe definitely caters to a younger crowd but no complaints. It was very crowded (Valentine's Day), and a group of 5 waiting for a table decided to stand so close to our table that they might as well have joined us. I asked the server if she could perhaps ask them, politely, to move closer to the bar. She graciously asked a manager who came by a few minutes later and asked if they could clear the area for the servers. They moved away--the staff handled the matter deftly and we were quite pleased (Thank you!!). We'd certainly dine here again when visiting Ft Lauderdale (or elsewhere they're located).

The view, food and vibe at the House on the River was great. Our server Macarena and the hostess Pilar were very polite, professional and attentive on our visit on Valentine's day. 10 out of 10 service. We will be coming back.

Always enjoy our meal at Padrinos, great Cuban food, always attentative service and a great value
