“What a Place to be on Halloween“

“Margie was amazing. My brother, friend, and I are from Texas and I haven’t met anyone in Florida as nice as her. We’ve been to many places and felt at home and welcomed here!! She deserves a raise. Margie made us feel so welcomed tonight! She was the most welcoming out of anywhere we went these past few days!!!“

“I was ready to jump off a bridge And the bartender talked me out of it.“

“Laser Wolf is a great local "Stranger Things" themed bar serving up a wide variety of cold brewskis. The walls are filled to the brim with nostalgic memorabilia from the yester years of the 00's. They frequently have food trucks that visit, ranging from tasty smashy crispy burgers, to their own fantastic taco express food truck (best hot sauce!) and even a legendary Geisha master shows up every now and then. Only negative thing is that they never have Sam Adams. Music could be better too. No reggaeton. Still 5 stars I think.“

“i had a blast tonight with kat she was so much fun! its definitely an adult bar but if you like strip clubs this way more fun!“

“Chili was great and the atmosphere was fun.“

“We had such an amazing experience at Shank’s Tavern! We came in to celebrate, and from the moment we walked through the door, the energy was welcoming, fun, and exactly what we were looking for.
Our bartender was truly outstanding—attentive, friendly, and clearly passionate about what they do. Every drink was made perfectly, and they kept the vibe going the entire night. You can tell they really care about their guests and go above and beyond to make sure everyone is having a great time.
The atmosphere was lively but still comfortable, the music was on point, and the whole place just had a great vibe for celebrating. It felt like one of those spots where you can relax, laugh, and make memories with your group.
Honestly, this place made our celebration even more special. We’ll definitely be back and will be recommending Shang’s Tavern to everyone we know. Huge shoutout to the bartender for making our night unforgettable“

“Fun funky little hang out“

“I've gone to many shows at this little joint. It's a raw place, it has character without trying too hard to. The Club is unkempt but extremely comfortable. The selection is adequate and you CAN SMOKE INSIDE. Old folks, young folks, all cool.“

What really sets Dylan apart is his personality—he's attentive, friendly, and somehow manages to make every guest feel like a regular. Whether you're there for one cocktail or spending the whole evening out, he consistently goes above and beyond.

If you're in Fort Lauderdale and Dylan is behind the bar, you're in the right spot,“
