“We landed early afternoon & headed straight to Café Bastille-Fort Lauderdale in Fort Lauderdale for brunch. I'd heard rave reviews about this spot & it exceeded expectations. We kicked off with a passionfruit margarita & a bacon bloody mary, both bursting with flavor. For our meal, we opted to share the truffle croque madame with a side salad & breakfast potatoes. The toast was wonderfully light & fluffy, & the potatoes had the perfect crunch. We couldn't leave without getting a NY pistachio croissant. The entire experience was enchanting. I'm already looking forward to our next visit before leaving Florida.“

“The Resto Cafe has many delicious options for food, beverages, snacks, breakfast, and lunch! The service is prompt and the staff are friendly and go above and beyond for their customers!

“I honestly find the crepes here to be the best. I always go for savory, and the thai chicken is my personal favorite, with the brisket Mac and cheese in at close second. The staff makes the food quick to where I'm never waiting for super long. Especially at night, this is my go to spot for a relatively healthy meal. 10/10 recommend“

“Wells is everything you’d want in your local coffee shop. This spot is quieter than the Flagler village spot where they roast the beans I believe but still very vibey. Their coffee is tasty and an iced latte especially hits the spot in these hot summer days in Florida. I have tried some of their beans for brewing espresso at home and it was solid- would buy again. As for getting here, they got some bike parking too so it’s perfect to stop by pre or post ride. Ample car parking for a grab and go as well!“

“We dined at Village Café on Tuesday, March 14th and we had Liz and Angie as our waitresses, and both were very responsive and made several suggestions on the menu and answered all of our questions. Miguel is the chef at the restaurant and every dish is an artistic adventure! They take reservations which can be made off of their web site, and the brunch can be busy so a reservation is recommended. Our daughter and three of her friends are here for Spring Break and they had breakfast at the café and suggested that we try the restaurant. Here is some background on the restaurant: We are a little cafe one block away from the beach, with a lovely atmosphere, and friendly staff. We like to make customers feel like they are at home. We serve breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Village Cafe is an American contemporary fusion restaurant, located just one block away Fort Lauderdale Beach, offering an unforgettable experience with a tasty breakfast, lunch and dinner menu, all this in a nice atmosphere and a friendly staff. They have an excellent wine list to make purchases by the bottle and wines by the glass with many choices. The homemade house rolls with two spreads, one cilantro and the other with a kick of spice. We tried the following: Tuna Ceviche: Fresh tuna, mango, toasted peanuts, onions, cucumbers, olive oil, topped with lime juice, cilantro and aji limo Quinoa Tabule $28 Tricolor quinoa, onions, bell peppers, cherry tomatoes, lime juice, served with four breaded jumbo shrimp Grilled New York Steak 10 oz Grilled steak marinated with an aromatic and charcoal-flavored oil. Deconstructed Key Lime Pie We ordered dessert because of all the reviews that complimented the key lime pie that we split. Thank you for a wonderful meal! We enjoyed it so much, that we plan to go back to try the brunch!“

“I don't usually write reviews, however, this place is so good that I had to shout them out. The food not only taste fresh, but it is so fairly priced it's incredible. After my first visit in, I have been greeted by first name every single time. The breakfast burrito is amazing, the pitas are all so great, the portions are plenty, everything is just great. My only advice, when going for lunch, try to order online because they can get super busy and lunch takes a bit longer to come out, but that is because everyone keeps coming back for more! Shoutout to Sofi's, thank you for everything!“

“Been ordering lunch for 16 years now Commercial point cafe has the best food as it is always prepared fresh always hot and delivered fast and has a scrumptious variety on their menu of home favorites to gourmet creations. Try the cajun fries you'll get hooked try everything and you'll be hooked. you wont be sorry.“

“This place offers a truly distinct menu filled with creatively prepared, healthy options. During our mural work nearby, they graciously hosted our artists' group, and their hospitality was beyond description. The food they serve is not only incredibly delicious but also nutritious. The cafe is quiet and cozy. It was inspiring to see many customers working on their computers. Highly recommend to give it a try!“

“Stop by with my son this morning to pick up breakfast. Everything was absolutely phenomenal! From how delicious everything was to how impeccably clean the whole store is and how incredibly nice the owner and staff is. I cannot wait to go back again. Super happy to finally have a Vicky bakery in Fort Myers.“

“Ray was amazing! I came after they had closed on a Saturday afternoon and he still took the time to allow me to patron them. This was my first visit and I will be back. They offer tea flights, coffee flights, food and more. The atmosphere was great. Very nice decor. Again service was EXCEPTIONAL, thank you Ray! His recommendation of the lavender coffee was spot on. It was delicious! Please go support local and visit The Modern Rose (Google has their name as Kahve Coffee but it’s the Modern Rose) today!“

“Delish cafe window in downtown ft Lauderdale! My friend and I stumbled upon this while walking to the art museum.

Non-members are able to order at the window and there are two large tables of covered outdoor seating. The staff was friendly and was kind as we needed time to read through the whole menu.

The menu has a unique collection of lattes and tonics. I really enjoyed the beatroot lattes. The empanada do not have cheese in it, which is amazing. Both the beef and chicken empanadas packed flavour and I appreciated that cholula was available as well.“

“⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ great place for kids. My kids love it !“
