Tamarindo Harbor Bar & Grill

The best Italian restaurant in Fort Lauderdale. We have been here twice, both times to order takeout. The staff makes you feel welcomed from the moment you walk in the door with a handshake and a smile. When we’ve ordered a drink while we wait they have brought us the most delicious soup to try. The ambiance is also so date-worthy: dim lighting, smooth tunes, relaxing but also just cool in the way the Amalfi coast is cool. Oh, and the food is incredible. The linguine with meatballs is what dreams are made of.

My family and I have eaten here once before when we were in the area. The food was soooo good we decided to make the 2 hr. drive down just to eat here again. Let me tell you it didn't disappoint! The crab ravioli and carrot soup were out of this world good and the cheesecake was on a whole different level of yummy. The owner is so kind and welcoming and the prices are very inexpensive for the quality of food you are getting. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

From the moment we arrived, the experience was flawless. The staff was warm, attentive, and highly professional, always making sure we felt welcome and well taken care of.

The food was simply outstanding: authentic dishes prepared with fresh ingredients and full of flavor. The pasta was perfectly cooked, the sauces rich and delicious, and the desserts absolutely irresistible.

Definitely a place I will return to and recommend without hesitation. Excellent service and top-quality food that exceeded my expectations.

Amazing! Delicious food and amazing service. As a chef I am super picky and I highly recommend this restaurant specially on the weekends when they have live music. We had a blast!

Love the service and food and drinks, Jackson was the waiter love his service, and will come back again

Was visiting in town and visited based on the good reviews but was very disappointed. The food was sub par across the board. The meal cost over 200 dollars and nothing we are met those kind of standards.

I Went on vacation to ft. Lauderdale and this was one of the best places we ate at! The food was great and so was the environment. I HIGHLY recommend the food and the dessert was fantastic. Truly authentic! Need a more customers!!!!

The food is exceptional, the service is amazing and the experience is second to none. Must come and check it out!!!

Not what we expected. 4.8 rating is hilarious. The singer sucked, and service sucked. Food was sub-par.

Absolutely love this restaurant and the staff. We picked it based on reviews and location to our hotel. We are from OKC and if this restaurant were local to us this would be on our rotation it is that good. Started with the complimentary focaccia bread and oil... had to stop myself to make sure I had room for my entree. The cheese appetizer I would describe as a delicious portion of fried cheese with the terrific red sauce... similar to a cheese stick but finer dining and quality. The braised beef ravioli are homemade and packed with the perfectly seasoned beef. My sangria was probably the best I have ever had. The risotto yet again delicious. They brought us an eggplant Parmesan to try and not a surprise another hit. I tell y'all it is in the red sauce. I could eat it every day. Whether you are local or traveling add this restaurant to your dining experiences. We will be back with the family in a couple weeks to dine. Thank you for the fabulous food and conversation.

Maaaan, where do I start. The food was incredible - I got lamb chops with mashed potatoes - and the drinks as well. Our server, Josseph, was also amazing. He chatted with us plenty and kept the evening lively. Also, Ms. Kat was a great performer and singer. Finally, the decor really sets a nice mood along with how nice the jazz music was. It wasn't too loud, so my wife n I enjoyed some conversation. Thank you so much for making our time memorable, everyone. We'll definitely be going back.
