“On June 16, we went to Kaluz Restaurant in Fort Lauderdale to celebrate my mother’s 85th birthday. We are regulars at Kaluz to the point where we have the cell phone numbers of several employees. In a nutshell, Anthony, the manager, should not hold that position in a restaurant like Kaluz. My husband and Anthony exchanged words and Anthony’s solution to the issue was telling us, “You should not come back here. The owners do not want parties larger than five people.” My jaw dropped. I could not believe that a manager’s solution to an issue about seating us sooner, while we waited for two other people in our party, especially since my 85-year-old mother could not stand for long, was to tell us, on two separate occasions, that we should not come back. Anthony also put the entire blame on the owners of the restaurant. We go to Kaluz almost on a weekly basis, tip extremely well and have taken countless people there that have also ended up being regulars at Kaluz. No restaurant manager should EVER tell a customer, regular or not, to not come back regardless of the issue. Needless to say, we will not be going back to Kaluz as long as Anthony continues working“

Thank you for all the hard work and the hours of love and time on your feet to give us the most delicious fresh made English muffins with a lightness and crunch matched to none!! 😁 My family was grieving that morning having breakfast there as we were in town for a funeral and I cannot tell you how much your place lifted our spirits with the warm, homemade comfort foods..we are still talking about it today! ☺️ Big 👏🏼 to everyone that served us. I will definitely be back the next time we are in town. 💛“

“AMAZING SERVICE DELICIOUS FOOD“

“Friendly service and great vegan cuisines. The “ Smoke in woods and High Steak was delicious. The flavors and seasoning was flavorful . Love the taste of eating good Vegan food. Even if you’re not Vegan you should give this try.“

“Amazing burger, cooked perfectly. I asked for medium and it was perfect. Tater tots were crispy and not greasy. The waitress was pleasant. Cool artwork throughout.
Cons: I wasn’t a fan of the group seating, I wanna have a private table not sit next to strangers.“

“My first time here and I was impressed by the relaxing atmosphere. They have an intensive selection of alcohol and beer. If you are looking for an amazing old fashioned, I would suggest this place because they have a very large bourbon collection. The bartender was extremely friendly and very attentive. I would definitely recommend this place.“

“After the Miami Hard Rock Cafe booked a private event and didn’t cancel our reservation on Mother’s Day, this Hard Rock Cafe in Ft Lauderdale stepped up. Our waiter Daniel and manager Robin gave us the most spectacular service. They were so apologetic for an issue that was never their fault. They helped save my Mother’s Day. I will always be grateful for that.“

“We had an amazing time shopping at Wave! The prices were great, and the quality of the beachwear was top-notch. The staff was super friendly and helpful, making our shopping experience a breeze. Finding such great beachwear really improved our vacation in Fort Lauderdale—we felt stylish and comfortable all day. We’ll definitely be back and recommend Wave to all our friends and family! Five stars for them !!!!“

“Had an amazing experience at Tommy Bahama Marlin Bar in Dania Pointe! The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, the food was fresh and flavorful, and the service was outstanding. A special shoutout to Chelsea, who made our visit even better with her friendly attitude, attentiveness, and excellent recommendations.
The highlight of our visit was definitely the street corn dip, absolutely delicious, full of flavor, and perfect for sharing. It was one of the best appetizers we’ve had in a long time. Thanks to Chelsea and the entire team for a wonderful experience. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend stopping by!“
