    The experience was terrific! Food was delicious. But our server Jairo, I cannot say enough, friendly, easy to talk to, knowledgeable and gave amazing advice on his favorites, which were all stellar! Can’t recommend Jairo and the team enough. Gary the GM is amazing as well!

    Fabulous food and service. Let the waiter explain the dishes because as they look in the menu, they don't appear to be all that appetizing but once you get an explanation, you will not be able to decide which one you want more. Stephanie, the wine steward, is unbelievably accommodating and really thinks about how she could meet your special needs. Leve, our waiter, could work at Michelin star three restaurant so we are lucky to have them here.  it is undeniably the best restaurant by far in Fort Lauderdale and I'm gonna extend that to Miami and Palm Beach as well.

    Atmosphere was amazing, service was great however menu options and selection was limited and overpriced in our opinion. We know what we signed up for and have no problem spending for delicious food and wine however for these offerings it wasn’t reasonable.

    I have never experienced such a lack of attention to customers. It was my first time there and the couple next to us said “good luck we have been here 45 minutes and have had one drink each”. I knew we were in for an overpriced meal with horrible service. Fortunately for us we had one drink each and one appetizer. They never asked us for more drinks or our main meal. We were there from 9:30pm our reservations till 11 pm until our servicer asked me what did we decide on. I said “ you kidding me, it’s 11:05pm and I haven’t eaten all day”. I’ll take the check and I’ll never be back till you figure out how to run a restaurant. As we left we met up with another couple and the original couple that told us how slow the service was. We all decided to meet up on Las Olas Blvd to finally eat at midnight. City Tavern in Las Olas saved my night.

    I don’t mind spending a-lot of money in a meal that’s over the top but my complaint and you will hear it from others is the size of the portion. The size was fine for us because we don’t eat a large meal but my wife’s Halibut was the smallest I’ve every seen for the money, I guess I’m use to going to the Blue Moon or Kaluz. My Octopus was marvelous and the portion was fine the big turn off was the price of your wines( and you know it ) with so many other incredible restaurants it will be hard to come back Regards The Lauderdale’s
