This is the reason why I keep coming back to this place so often. This time, Big Jim was our waiter. Very efficient and friendly.

A server named Allie came over and checked to make sure we were on the list.When we were seated Allie took great care of us and the meal was great !!! Entrees, drinks and appetizers all great - price was surprisingly fair“

“I was invited for dinner and The service was outstanding , very good. The food was good. One thing I did not like was the mac and cheese, and it had too much liquid, milk, and not much flavor. My scallop was good, the asparagus was delicious.
The banana bread dessert was good, the icecream was too sweet.“

“Been coming here regularly for two years and the whole place is a one big great vibe. Good food, friendly staff. But I want to give a shout out to Keith the GM. He has to be the hardest working restaurant manager in pompano beach! He's always on the floor greating and checking on customers and making sure the place is a well oiled machine!! Always great getting to see him making sure things go just right for everyone!!“

I highly recommend this spot to anyone who's in the Deerfield Beach area.. Please go see Diana at the bar! She's the best bartender Ive had serve us in long while! Great place to pull up after a day out on the boat because they have a marina too! We love this place!“

“Every time I come down from South Carolina, I make it a point to stop by Snappers on Sunrise Blvd, and I’m never disappointed. The food is consistently top-notch, and the service is always outstanding. It’s become one of my favorite spots to visit whenever I’m in town. The staff is friendly, attentive, and makes you feel welcome every time. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for great food and excellent customer service!“

“We loved our food with great service! The mussels in a garlic marinara sauce were the best but more bread to dip would have been appreciated. I had Broiled Scrod with garlic roasted green beans topped with roasted red peppers. Others had broiled scallops, shrimp scampi, fish and chips. The fish dishes were delicious and being from Eastern Canada on the seashore, we were more than delighted to have had such great seafood in South Florida! Kudos to the Chefs and Kitchen Staff!! Have been here for 4 months and it was my preferred place for a meal. The portions were more than plenty! 5 stars to the Dania Fish Grill. March 09, 2023“

“I’m not sure if I put up a review as I intended to yesterday, but this was my first visit to JB’s, I was in the mood for seafood and decided on the lobster scramble, especially because I got a free mimosa lol. I will say that the valet was well worth the price, especially compared to the $30 parking lot on the other side of the street. Do NOT go to that parking lot!
Their coconut Mojito was made with great ingredients and did not taste artificial. My only grip with the food is that while it was a lot, the eggs were a bit burned on the bottom. This usually leads to dry eggs, and after eating a quarter of it, I decided to save the rest and try to salvage at home (yes, you can reheat eggs in a pan with new scrambled eggs)
The benefit of the lobster scramble was that I got a free mimosa, so I won’t complain.
The decor and layout are really nice inside and don’t appear like it would be stuffy in there if it were full. I went on a Sunday around two and the wait to sit outside was 15 to 30 minutes, which wasn’t bad, but it was so hot. I don’t think it was worth waiting. Otherwise no complaints. No complicated interactions or improper service. Nice stuff, prompt service.“

“We had Kristie as our waitress. Service and food was amazing! I recommend this spot for dinner, brunch, or lunch! Will be back soon! Thank you again“

“H2Oceans offers a diverse menu, which includes the freshest of seafood, prepared to perfection at reasonable prices! The restaurant is sparkling clean, the ambiance is cozy, and there is also live music every Thursday, as well as for special events, out on the covered patio. Without reservation, I highly recommend this neighborhood gem.“

“Jessica was amazing! Great conversation, very attentive, really sweet. Bar is a great atmosphere, open with a nice breeze, good food and even better drinks!
John is another great bartender they have!
Definitely a go to spot for our current vacation and any future trips in the future!“

“My husband and I stopped by Mason’s Famous Lobster Rolls and really enjoyed the butter lobster roll. It was fresh, yummy, and absolutely delicious! We loved that it was made with whole pieces of lobster—you could actually see and taste the generous chunks in every bite. It may be a little pricey, but it’s definitely worth it if you’re a lobster lover. We highly recommend giving it a try! $24.00“

“Great location food and atmosphere! Right on the beach.“

“Top Tier Restaurant and Lounge is awesome. Had lunch there the other day and it was excellent. The steam fish was excellent with rice and peas and bami. It was very good. Service is great and the owners are terrific. The best part is they offer evening events which offer a fun great atmosphere. Top Tier is a fitting name!!!!“

“Great space! Exceptional service (Kayla)!
Everyone was extremely professional and polite.
We were impressed.

My only negative comment- The chief needs to go easy on the salt!! We were swollen for two days after. Kayla was nice enough to take the onion soup off the bill.

You guys have a GREAT restaurant, don’t ruin it with sodium.“

“Those ribs and chicken was nothing but the truth!(That means good!) I’m from Miami but willing to take the drive for some tasty and seasoned to perfection BBQ. I’ll be back real soon 😊 The food was so good I forgot to take a picture but take my word it was YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!!“

“First time eating here. We were seated by the hostess and you could tell that she's done this 1 million times while she was very cordial and smiling, it just seemed very rehearsed. However, that changed with our server. He was amazing sincere over the top service that will make us return again. As far as the food, it was very good. The Bimini bread was off the chart.“

“Nice place to hold an event. Service is great“

“Today 7-23-22 2 pm out door deck late lunch Our waiter was Marcelo , he was so sweet, patient and helpful, he made us feel comfortable, not rushing us , Thank you Marcelo awesome time.“

“During our stay at the Ritz Carlton in Fort Lauderdale, we had dinner at the Burlock Coast Restaurant located within the hotel. The food and service were spot on. There is both indoor and outdoor dining. We enjoyed some cocktails and shared a few appetizers, including the shrimp cocktail. After that, we took a lovely walk along the beach, which is right across from the restaurant.“

“Good customer Survice Waitress“
