“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“

“Excellent food , outstanding service. The manager ( Dee ) is amazing at keeping it all functioning, even when they’re slammed , as is usually the case Recommend to all“

“We’re foodies based in NYC and seasonal Floridians and this one of our favorites ! Last night our server Orin and Chef Ivan outdid themselves!! Everything was fabulous!! Great food and service!“

“My son and I came here and I will say it was an amazing dining experience.The decor was so on point, every time I looked somewhere there was something different. Gaby our server was amazing and friendly. Awesome Service from the whole staff as well. The burgers we ordered definitely did not disappoint. I highly recommend coming here and ask for Gaby, you will not be disappointed.“

“We had the best dinner at a local Plantation restaurant - we highly recommend Burtons Grill & Bar! The service was amazing, everyone was so friendly and accommodating and even the Manager came over to our table to thank us. I had a beautiful (large) salad topped with Thai steak and it was healthy and delicious. Ron almost always orders a burger and it was cooked perfectly with a large amount of awesome fries. The nice thing we liked about it, also, is that there is a lovely outdoor patio with fans and very comfortable. Our server was delightful, and we noticed that ALL of the servers were smiling and attentive to everyone! Oh, yes, we will be back!!“

“Jayden without a doubt is outstanding. Very vibrant full of energy. Attentive,respectful and inviting. Definitely will be back!! Will definitely recommend her. To every customer!“

“Donnie Boyfriend Christy Girlfriend“

“fresh, tasty, clean, healthy, no-mess delicious food that is properly prepared by chefs. this is not a commercial fast food joint- it's a casual, affordable spot on beautiful Giralda Avenue where staff is utterly prepared to serve you quickly and with a smile. you can see the food being prepared with proper technique ( hello meat thermometers). If you're practicing mindful eating on a budget, are on a time crunch, on a work break, this is the place to be. I'll be back soon!“

“Food was good, environment was clean. My server laniyah was absolutely amazing and super nice“

“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 !!!!“

“Barbie was great“

“Excellent Lunch and service.
The management team and staff are top notch. We took mom for her 78th bday and had an issue with our reservation. Ian and team went above and beyond and I mean way above and beyond to rectify the issue. I felt like we were in a top notch county club with all of the staff taking care of us. J Alexander’s is the real deal company. They actually care about their guests. That’s hard to find nowadays. We will be back and continue to tell everybody about how phenomenal the management, service and of course the delicious always consistent food is.“

“Been ordering lunch for 16 years now Commercial point cafe has the best food as it is always prepared fresh always hot and delivered fast and has a scrumptious variety on their menu of home favorites to gourmet creations. Try the cajun fries you'll get hooked try everything and you'll be hooked. you wont be sorry.“

“We started with the guacamole which as always was delicious. The sweet potatoe chips that come with it are a must try. The west coast steak sandwich never disappoints. The kale slaw they put on it makes this sandwich hard to beat. Our friends had the chicken kebabs which are also fabulous and a nice size portion. My husband had the meatball which he loved. The only sort of negative thing is I would not go back on my birthday. Not that I need a free dessert but its a nice touch that they don't do. They did put a candle in the dessert we ordered but a small free scoop of ice cream or even a small dessert not on the menu goes a long way in my opinion.“

“This place is awesome if you craving an authentic Jewish deli lunch! I was and am not disappointed.“

“we enjoy the specials each day and the breakfasts we get often. Had the fried pork chops Saturday evening and they were very good.“

“Last night, I had a fantastic dining experience at Hard Rock Cafe in Hollywood, FL. Our reservation was around 3:45/4:00 PM, and the hostess was an absolute gem—kind, considerate, and incredibly helpful, setting a warm tone for the evening. Our server, Chris, was attentive and made sure we had everything we needed with a great attitude. The food runners were equally impressive, delivering our meals promptly and with a smile. The food was delicious, and the vibrant atmosphere added to the fun. Highly recommend this location for a great meal and top-notch service!“

“Hole in the wall vibes, right off the beach. I LOVE the pizza, & compared to the other restaurants here the price is pretty affordable. Most authentic pizza I’ve been able to find in America. The crust is a perfect combo of floppy & crunchy. & even just the cheese pizza is super yummy! Service is amazing & super friendly.“

“Nice atmosphere, good 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.“

“Our waiter Eric B. was absolutely spectacular- warm, attentive, and incredibly serviceable throughout our entire meal last night. He made us feel genuinely welcomed and taken cared of, going above and beyond with every detail. We truly appreciated Eric's hospitality and will definitely be coming back because of him!“

“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.“

“Great people, great food, had the Ny style and the steak onions and peppers, also the Chicago style they all were great. The owner is a blast she brought us the Chicago style after we had the 2 other items and told us to try it, and it was awesome. This place gets 2 thumbs up 👍 👍“

“We had a wonderful experience dining here. A quaint, personable, friendly, tasty night with great company! The bacon covered dates were recommended in reviews and we did like it! Jordan our waiter was very pleasant and knowledgable. Give them a try! (Make your reservation!)“

“I have been going to the Orange Tree since I was a kid! This place was actually my first resteraunt job bussing tables! That was a long time ago but the quality is great and consistent. The staff is friendly and welcoming! Old school charm but one reminder… BRING CASH! They do not take credit cards or debit cards!“

“Perfect for take-out! I ordered the NY Strip with steak fries, sautéed mushrooms and onion, and a Caesar salad. My SO ordered the parmesean chicken with the loaded mashed potatoes and broccoli and everything was PHENOMENAL. The food was hot, fresh, correct, and prepared with care. I even paid less than I would have for the same exact thing at Outback!! Support this local business!!“

“I’ve been enjoying Webbys for over 15 years. They have never disappointed me with any of their menu selections. The owners are truly wonderful people. The staff is extremely friendly, courteous, fast. Very cozy atmosphere. I find myself talking with the other patrons very easily. Check them out!“
