Steelpan Kitchen & Bar

Excellent Easter brunch with a delicious buffet including a huge sushi boat and live music

went for happy hour--the fish dip was quite filling and the burgers. disappointed because no live music as advertised and the hh menu was not as advertised.

My friends and I had a reservation at 11:30am. While the restaurant name would insinuate Caribbean food, there was no Caribbean food on the menu. Additionally, we asked to see a lunch menu after seeing only six items on the brunch menu but were told they could not serve lunch that early. The service was atrocious - rude staff from host to waitress, and an excruciating wait for mediocre, overpriced food. This place was a total letdown.

Came for Valentine's Day dinner. When I say the food was awful, that is an understatement. The wine was cheap. The soup was bland. The croutons in the soup were hard. The capris salad was unseasoned and the tomatoes not fresh. The sea bass was clearly frozen and the texture was like it had been frozen twice. The cauliflower was hard. The potato cake was not fresh. The desert was dry and did not taste fresh. This was a horrible experience to say the least.

Really enjoyed the food - can highly recommend the fish tacos. Service was great and the live music was just the right level to enjoy while eating and chatting.

Beautiful restaurant on the main beach walk. View of the beach and ocean on the patio. Perfect weather in January when we went. Best crab cake of my life. Tuna tartar and jerk chicken were delicious. Service was prompt and courteous. It's attached to a hotel.

Food was ok (except for the Blackened Mahi Mahi sandwich, served late and cold). Service was horrible. Either understaffed or the staff (besides our waiter) was lazy. Our waiter was trying his best to serve 8 or so tables, but failed. 2 of the 3 meals came out. After 10 minutes the waiter came back and asked if the 3rd had arrived. Obviously it had not. He did comp the meal after I canceled it (he still served it cold). Ordered a second drink that never arrived but made it to the bill. On top of that they add an 18% "service charge". A forced tip. If the service improves it would be fine.

Nothing great. Prices were on par for the area. Good service. Just wouldn't go out of my way for it.

My mom's 61st birthday was on July 31st and I called to see if they would be able to accommodate 13 people. If they couldn't I was going to find another place that could. I called them several times and got the voice-mail. So I left messages with my name, number and asking if they could accommodate 13 people. Also I did the contact us form on their website and to this day August 7th I haven't received a call back nor did I receive an email back from the contact us. It's sad because my mom liked the menu and wanted to try it for her birthday. We ended up at Black Rock instead and she still had a great time. I'm just disappointed in the treatment of this restaurant and how they let my mother and me down for her special day.

This was my first time in Fort Lauderdale and this restaurant was connected to my hotel and it was amazing!!! The smoked salmon toast was perfect and so delicious and my mom got the steak and eggs, the steak was spectacular! It seemed like there was only 1 waitress amongst all the tables so a few refills got missed but other than that, I really recommend this place! Their coffee is amazing as well!
