MAASS is quite possibly, the best restaurant in Fort Lauderdale! The food is delicious and oh so elegantly prepared. The artistry the chefs exhibit in their food creations, is nothing less than perfection. The combined flavors are truly a culinary delight. And the service, is incredibly efficient and attentive. The entire staff is professional, yet personal. What an experience it was for me, sitting at the Chef's counter for their "tasting menu". For I was served exceptionally prepared dishes over the course of the evening. All of which, were more impressive than the last. Thank you MAASS, for an unforgettable dining experience in such a beautiful restaurant and location.

This is unquestionably the best restaurant in Fort Lauderdale. Service is excellent and the food is executed to perfection. I ate here several times during recent work trip and tried almost everything on the menu, and despite relative modest descriptions, each dish had a different unexpected element that made you say "wow." The only negative is that you will find yourself disappointed with the other "fine dining" options in the area once you are able to see what Maass can do.

We dined for brunch and had an overall great experience. The staff was very friendly and attentive, the food was absolutely amazing. Although we found the restaurant to be very nice, my only issue was with the amount of mold growing on, and surrounding their AC vents. I’m sure this is mostly caused by the overwhelming amount of humidity from outside and is probably expected when dining in the beach. We can’t wait to go back and experience their dinner service.

Thé food was fantastic. I think they can do better on their uniforms. They don’t reflect the high level of the restaurant
