50 Best American Restaurants near Lauderdale Lakes

“I love you guys! Best food ever!“

“FOOD WAS HOT AND DELICIOUS!! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!“

“The egg rolls were really good and fulfilling with each sauce/condiment and those fries! The chicken one was buffalo-less 😂, but surprisingly, it was the best. I’m Haitian and tasted a hint of the Haitian fusion in the chicken lol.

The fries though 😅 extremely good, even after 30 mins to an hour when they weren’t fresh anymore and we had some left over.

The service was great as well. The guy up front was dope and cool and conversed with me even though the young lady was the one helping me. He still acknowledged me as a customer, which I appreciated.

I’d def return.“

“Tanner is a bright young g man with a wonderful personality. He has a manager’s personality actually - seems like a natural leader.

He’s very good with people, pays close attention to detail, cares about quality and properly followed up after the food arrived. ***** service.

Happy to have had this experience with him.“

“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!“

“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!“

“1st time going was pleasant for myself and my wife. Great menu selection. Unfortunately the portions were small as in the Ahi Tuna and Fries. I get more fries at McDonald’s kids meal. 1 appetizer 2 burgers 2 vodka talls with the 20% fee. All came out to be $90. A bit pricey being I had to park on the 3rd floor in the parking garage on a Tuesday night. Great looking restaurant though if you’re into Fords. Revised comment. My wife and I both got sick eating something 🤮“

“Simply Delicious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!“

“Food and service was good“

“So I needed a place to eat/celebrate my birthday and MOST places when you have a big party (we had 18x ppl) wanna give you a set menu or charge you for this and that or just WONT TAKE RESV with this number :( . BUT, we had no issue at all booking here!!! And aren't we super HAPPY we did!!! From walking in and the hostess wishing me a Happy Birthday and she was just a pleasure , to the staff being highly entertaining and engaging, to the FOOD (omgggggg YUMMY)!! We all ordered appetizers, salads, dinners, and desserts and EVERYTHING was PHENOMENAL!! We had zero complaints and for being such a large party that's usually impossible! We will definitely be back!!!
Also, we checked out the speak easy for an after dinner drink and it was beautiful with a great bartender and wonderful live music!!!“

“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“

“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!!“

“Super service et repas délicieux 👌je recommande.“

“Andrew and Lori were amazing. They did a wonderful job waiting on me. They actually actually let me have a milkshake for my little boy because he printed soda. I thought that was awesome. I'll definitely be recommending her place. This is the One in Davie they were the tire shops are.“

“Chelsea S. Was our waitress and she was friendly and very helpful. We had happy hour beverages and both the Pina Colada and Coconut Cloud Martini were delicious! Shareable were tasty and filling. I would recommend the Street corn Dip and the Ahi Tuna Tacos. We would recommend and will be back!“

“Great Sevice, Great staff and always friendly. Jaylin was super helpful & kind! Will be back !!“

“My friend’s dad recently moved to Pompano, so I’ve been playing tour guide, taking them around to all the local spots. J Marks isn’t the obvious pick, it’s not the place that jumps to mind first. But it was rainy, we wanted indoor seating, and I’d only been twice before, so I figured why not. Best decision of the week.We went full appetizer buffet at the table , ahi tuna (my friend officially declared the best she’s ever had, and she doesn’t hand that out lightly), and mussels in a sauce so good it could go toe-to-toe with any top Italian kitchen, with just the right kick of spice. High praise since her dad is Italian and doesn’t hand out Italian-sauce compliments easily either. I don’t even eat mussels and I was fighting for bread to mop it up and the kitchen had our back, sending out garlic bread with the mussels, then the waitress swooped in with an extra basket of piping hot homemade rolls just for sauce duty. We also ordered the calamari, lightly fried and perfectly crisp, with her dad specifically requesting “as many tentacles as possible”, he said it was the most tentacle action he’s gotten at a restaurant in years. Crab cake was solid too- not the best I’ve ever had, but absolutely worth ordering. And dessert was the “seven layer” carrot cake, which was really six layers by my count, but every one of them delicious. My extremely picky-about-espresso-martinis girlfriend gave hers the ultimate compliment: she ordered three. (Don’t worry, I was driving.)The real MVP moment though: her dad has cochlear implants and serious tinnitus, and the speakers overhead were doing him no favors. We flagged the hostess, the manager Dani, came right over and personally turned down the volume in our whole section, then chased us down on our way out to hand him her card , “next time, call me directly, I’ll take care of everything.”Service was a 10/10. In this day and age, that kind of care is basically a unicorn sighting. Huge shoutout to the kitchen and an even bigger one to J Marks for hiring people who actually give a damn. Already planning our next visit!“

“My 17 yea old had the whole Pampano and loved it!“

“Great food, great service, great atmosphere!
Terrell was exceptional! I sat at the bar surrounded by huge TV’s watching College Football! Love this place!!!
It was my first visit here and Terrell assisted with my burger choice .. They have a very diverse amazing menu-
I can’t wait to work my way through all the choices!
I ordered the Double Bacon Smash Burger without pickles!
My pictures say it all! It was delicious! Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside! Lot’s of bacon and lot’s of onions and cheese!
Soo yummy! A perfect smash!
The atmosphere is as cool as it gets! There’s a food truck inside making the spectacular milkshakes! I was too full to have one…
I highly recommend!!!“

“I visited Seasons 52 on Saturday, February 11th, for a friends birthday. I love this restaurant. The food, the drinks, and the ambiance is perfect. 20 thums up :) and I will definitely visit again.“

“I invited 4 ladies for our Supper Club to join me at Seasons 52, which is usually held at one of our homes (we've been meeting for 15 years). With a few ladies out of town, this time we chose to get together at a restaurant, and I chose Seasons 52 because it is consistently a great choice. The food, the atmosphere and the service. Brenna was so helpful in suggesting a sparkling wine and flatbread to start, ready for us just as we were seated. The table was just perfect, very quiet. And the food was delicious. We so enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere and hospitality for our Supper Club dinner.“

“We are from PA and stopped in for a fast snack! Ryan, our server was so much fun that we each had 2 drinks apiece, a starter, Chicken tenders, Mahi Sammie and desert! Truly a great experience! Thanks Ryan!!!!“

“I’m not from the area—I was in town for a test and decided to stop by for dinner. I’m so glad I did! The food was delicious, fresh, and well prepared. The service was outstanding, especially from Levi (I hope I’m spelling his name correctly). He was friendly, attentive, and made me feel very welcome. It was a great experience, and I’ll definitely come back if I’m ever in town again. Highly recommend!“

“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.“

“You guys are always welcoming and amazing. Since day 1 India always makes me feel welcomed. AND THE FOOD 🤤 Absolutely delicious. My favorite go to is always the onion soup but can never go wrong with their flavorful Matzo ball soup. Everything tastes like love.“
