This was literally the worst experience I’ve ever had at a restaurant. The waitress was not remotely attentive. We always had to chase her down for anything. We never got waters or drinks at all. The entire staff was inattentive. The restaurant was not even remotely packed, so there is no excuse for the terrible service. I will never be coming here again, and I advise everyone to steer clear of this dump.

Very poor service, waitress was extremely inattentive for our large party

It was awful! Told the server we were in a rush came back 20 min after putting order I. And said they were out of tuna. Diet Coke was Coke, no silverware! Will not return, too bad cool atmosphere

Some of the worst service I’ve ever experienced. Half dressed bartenders, half dressed manager, no consistent uniforms, seems to be a free for all here! Dead flies in the windowsills, dusty everywhere, our first time we won’t be back. Food was good but there was no business so that it was just social time with the employees!!! Not a business but a hang out spot for the workers.

We enjoyed Timpano very much. Great service starting with our hostess Mariana who provided excellent customer service. Yummy food, the new Tuscan salad as well as the salmon. Vibrant energy in a nice atmosphere. We highly recommend it.

Friendly service, great food, awesome outdoor views and live music. We had the Bloody Marys and Huevos Rancheros and it was great but the rest of the menu looked awesome too. Loved it!

Matchbox is a very nice chain restaurant with good food. This location is positioned on the River Walk in Fort Lauderdale, so if the weather is nice it's a great place to sit outdoors and watch the boats go by. Our food was good and the service was excellent. We'll be back.

If you want an excellent veggie pizza, this is the place! We ordered veggie, bacon and Margherita, and the selection was the best!

The soup was cold. Our drinks never came and we had to go get them ourselves at the bar (mine was comped though due to the delay). The food quality was good. Overall an ok experience but not as good as it used to be when they were brand new.
