18 Best Bar & Grill in Fort Lauderdale

“I can't fully express how exceptional this restaurant is. I organized a sunset cruise for a group of 24 guests, but unfortunately, they didn’t have the provisions (food) we were expecting. In a moment of panic, I contacted the owner, Jackson, and explained the situation, hoping for a backup plan within 30 minutes (sounds impossible 🥵). Not only did he agree to accommodate us, he immediately began preparing for us. Once we arrived, he and his team welcomed us with such warmth and hospitality. Our table was beautifully set, complete with a customized and printed menu just for us. He chose 3 dinner options for our party and actually had custom printed menus! Wow!! Drinks, salad, and bread were flowing within minutes, and the food? Absolutely divine—without a doubt the best Italian cuisine we’ve ever had. To top it off, there was a live performer who was fantastic! Totally unexpected, we had no clue there was entertainment but such another great treat. She engaged with everyone, took song requests, and even invited guests to join her to sing. The entire experience, from the atmosphere to the impeccable service, was beyond anything we could have hoped for. Jackson even served our table personally and jumped in to assist his team, going the extra mile to make us feel welcomed and special. He continued to check in and make sure we were ok and had everything we needed and accommodated every single request ❤️ I am incredibly grateful for everything. Jackson and his staff turned what could have been a stressful situation into an unforgettable evening. This special group of oncology nurses truly deserved a memorable night, and thanks to you, we got exactly that. Thank you so much for making it an experience we will never forget! 🥰“

“One of the last Great place in south fl. to see good live original music.“

“Freddie’s is a well-equipped a bar for sports enthusiasts: More than a dozen large screens can be tuned to multiple sporting events. As a bar, it had a limited but satisfying beer and liquor selection but offsets that lack of variety with high quality food. The wings are amazing, and there are lots of fried seafood, salads, sandwiches and burgers, all fresher and tastier than you’d expect. This is also a no frills bar for locals, a true neighborhood hangout worth getting to know even if you don’t live in the neighborhood.“

“We evacuated to Ft Lauderdale from Port Charlotte during hurricane Ian and stumbled upon this wonderful Sandbar Grill while in town. Service was so amazing the first night that we had to go back. Overall, the staff and the food and the drinks were amazing!!! Everyone was so friendly and it totally helped us keep our minds calm knowing that a hurricane was hitting our home town. Thank you for your congeniality!!!“

“Friendly staff. Food was great!“

“Came in and had Stan as my server. He was super attentive and just an overall really good guy. Super nice and took real good care of us. Wish there were more servers like that out there it makes going out a way better experience. Drinks were great and the food was pretty good too. Overall great experience with Stan this evening!“

“This is really my favorite hotel in South Beach. The property is right on the beach. There’s a nice pool, great beach, and accommodating staff. The decor is true Art Deco, but it’s at this point in need of some love. The rooms are starting to show wear. I was “upgraded” because of my status to a balcony room. The balcony was just big enough for a chair. No more. And the only window was the slider. Still the view was amazing.“

“Tischservice heißt an den Tisch setzen und warten bis jemand durch den Raum brüllt…🤣🤣🤣“

“We recently stayed several days at the Renaissance on evacuation from the gulf coast. This is a lovely hotel and the hospitality team was top notch. We will definitely be back!“

“Kairi was amazing!!! She made me feel very comfortable as a gay man who has never been to this establishment before. I’m from west palm beach and decided to come here on a whim. And Kairi was the only one who made me feel welcomed and comfortable.“

“This place is the best and most laid back sports bar in Broward and, in my honest opinion, in all of South Florida in general. Let's start with the servers. These ladies are all gorgeous, helpful, diligent, fast, but most of all, friendly and relatable. I've been here about two or three times after discovering this place hidden away on 441 and McNab. And the crazy thing was I'd lived next to this place for years but only found it a few weeks ago. Now I'm a regular for sure, and with no regrets. The liquor is always on point, and the food is great! And the staff is always ready to treat you like a king/queen while they take care of your order in a flash. Thank you, Shea, Lee, Rhea, LaLa and Tiffany, for always making me feel at home when I come visit my favorite SoFlo Chill spot. This place is highly recommended. So do not hesitate to stop in because I guarantee you'll have an amazing time and will leave with a wonderful experience!“
