Nice spot on the outdoor courtyard patio. We got a good deal on our wine and they setup an ice bucket next to the table, that’s fancy!

Had a delightful evening here - setting is quiet and romantic! Mitzy was our server and did a great job and was fun to chat with. They put together a delish vegan penne dish for my husband w pomodori sauce, artichokes, mushrooms, olives and basil. My carbonara was good, despite the giancale being overcooked. Would definitely return.

Visiting Fort Lauderdale and decided to stop in here for a quick bite, drinks, etc. If you're planning on doing the same, please avoid at all costs. The ambience is nice from a view however the entire time we are at dinner we were worried about cock roaches crawling up our legs. I mean literally, we saw atleast half a dozen roaches by our tables, the walls of the restaurant, etc. they were all over the place is was disgusting. Food was well below average, waitress was nice. Everything else gave us the shivers. We got out of there as fast as we could. Picture attached is literally one of the many that were crawling all around us and went on our chairs

You must visit this quaint, hidden gem Italian restaurant when you visit Fort Lauderdale. The ambience, charm and of course the food is all stellar. The owner Gregger, is a pleasure to talk with and always remembers his customers.

As a neighbor of Wine Garden, I’ve been a frequent customer and friend of owner Greger Nilzen and his loyal staff for years. The point of this review is to share I’ve never been more impressed w the service, delicious food and enchanting decor of the Garden than last Sunday Nov 9th. My family loved the engaging, electric personalities of staff (Rachel, Misty, Stephanie & Omar) coupled with waves of so many great dishes!! And compared to many restaurants in the area, your money is going a long way to the pleasure of your loved ones. Thank you Wine Garden, keep up the outstanding customer experience!!

Very disappointing experience. Went for a friends bday and the service was amazing but the food was awful, which was a surprise because we have the best experience last May. Order food and was told several menu items were no longer available due to an upcoming menu update. Order a salad, and 5 entrees. 2 entrees came before the salad. 2 entrees came out completely burnt. 1 came out undercooked and an extra pizza was brought out (which was asked if we ordered and we said no, but it still came out and was on the bill and we were expected pay for... not sure if it was a bad night or this is the new expectation, also not sure I will go back to see.

The server was a bit slow. The lobster ravioli was a bit salty. The ragu was amazing. The atmosphere is awesome. It's a very cool spot.

1- Faible consistance dans les assiettes 2- Descriptif du menu non conforme 3- Aucun accompagnement inclus dans les plats si ce n'est en option payante trop onéreuse 4- Cuisson des viandes non compatible avec la commande 5- La pizza à été appréciée Malgré le très bon service et le bon acceuil

Wine Garden and their team are like family to us. We've spent so many great memories spending evenings with Misty & Nomar, and once we found out they could host our reception on the date we were looking for, it was full-steam ahead! We never even considered another venue for a moment. We have been coming here for years, so we new we had to find a way to make the team and location a part of our celebration.
Funny enough, we actually began planning everything over dinner while there back in March. The entire process was easy, relaxed and fun. From start to finish, Greger & Brandi made everything feel effortless—but if you really know them, that comes as no surprise. They are true professionals. On the night of our wedding; Rachel, Brooke, Tony— every single person went above and beyond, but that’s the base line for them. That evening, they added a touch of magic that made the entire evening so very memorable.
As always, the food was incredible thanks to Chef Rosario. Even though we spent much of the night speaking with guests and taking photos, every single person we spoke to had nothing but rave reviews, with some of our family members already planning their return trip just to visit Wine Garden again.
Wine Garden will forever hold a special place in our hearts. The people, the atmosphere and the love they poured into our celebration made it everything we could have hoped for and more. If you’re looking for a place that feels like home and shines with authentic warmth and beauty— there’s no other place we could recommend more highly.

Price for the Eggplant versus the portion size was outrageous. Flavor mediocre. Caprese salad was advertised as having basil, had none. We left hungry. If we returned, would definitely look at other entree options. Waiter was somewhat attentive. Was not a good dining experience.
