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

“Jerk Chicken and Fried Rice for $5 Advertised. Spent $17+ on two orders🧐? Awesome chicken though 😋“

“Overall a very good experience. The service was very good. The food is very good. And the atmosphere is very good. It met expectation and I would come back.

It's not the kind of place for a "wow" factor. But an enjoyable outdoor dining experience.

I came off hours on a Tuesday. So I had my pick of tables.

The music was audible but not "thumping" and it didn't interfere with conversation.“

“Great new Peruvian restaurant. Yound ’ & vibrant place with food to match. MANTA knows its menu as this is there second location in the US . I was very impressed with the TUNA CAUSA, very innnovative. Service superb, particularly, Alexandra!. We shall return soon“

“Great customer service: perfectly prepared food!!“

“Great tasting food and fast service. A bit pricey but you know that when getting a seafood boil. We had the crawfish, snow crab, and shrimp + 1/2lb of dunegoness crab, corn, sausage, broccoli, came to $100 with tax. Enough food for 2 people to be full and satisfied.“

“I have my go to spot in Plantation, great food, Drinks and the best bar tender in the Hood , DEE she goes above and beyond to take care of you
Outstanding service.
I would really love ❤️ if the restaurant could get a Lychee Martini 😋.

Parking: All good fantastic service, very professional and courteous.“

“Coconuts has consistently been my "Go-To" spot when guests are in town or a special occasion comes up. From the Drink Menu & Appetizers to Deserts and everything in between; they have always been spot on! Valet makes parking easy in the busy beach area, taking away the hassle of having to find a spot. The staff is always kind and courteous- I especially appreciate the mindfulness when I mention my food allergies. I'm confident I can order anything off the menu and not have to worry about an accidental contamination and reaction. If you go- don't leave without ordering the Scoobies and a slice of Key Lime pie!“

“We had a fantastic Easter dinner at Eddie V's! From start to finish, the experience was top notch. Our server, Mia, was incredibly kind and attentive—she truly made us feel special. We started with the calamari, and the sauce it came with was absolutely delicious. While the initial filet was a bit overcooked, the team handled it right away with professionalism and care, and we were quickly served a replacement that was cooked to perfection—tender, flavorful, and absolutely incredible. The sides were equally impressive; the mashed potatoes and macaroni and cheese were hands down the best we've ever had. We finished with the bananas foster dessert, and wow—out of this world! A perfect ending to a wonderful evening. Highly recommend!“

“Tonight my wife and I had two guests , one from out of town , and we spent a few hrs on the boat. We stopped here for dinner and it was packed. 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“

“The service was outstanding. The view and atmosphere overlooking the water was both romantic and relaxing. The cocktails were creative and fun. The salmon was to die for. The pineapple upside cake was a nice ending to a fantastic meal!“

“I cannot even explain the wonderful time we have as a family from the moment we walk into Embarcadero 41 until the moment we leave. The food at this restaurant is exceptional and the service is above and beyond our expectations. Valleria ALWAYS greets us with her warm and happy smile making us feel welcome everytime we visit. The last time we came we asked for her to take care of us but we will not in her assigned table group so Rafealla was kind enough to let her help us they both did a incredible job at taking care of us together!“

“Visited from the UK, absolutely stunning place to visit, the outside could do with a bit of a makeover, but the inside and harbour were stunning. Everyone was so friendly and the food was delicious.“

“My husband did great choosing this place for my birthday dinner last week! My friends had the Mahi Mahi, husband had the grouper, and I had the fish special with orzo/crab fritters. For dessert we had key lime pie and the icky sticky. The octopus appetizer was great also. I had a guava punch cocktail. All around an enjoyable experience!“

“The food was very good! I had the risotto with beef tenderloin, and it was delicious—rich, flavorful, and satisfying. However, I'm giving four stars because the portion of risotto was quite large compared to the amount of beef tenderloin. A bit more balance between the two would have made it perfect.“

“Wonderful place with super yummy food!“

“Best seafood in Ft. Lauderdale!!“

“If you visit Fort Lauderdale or if you live anywhere in South Florida, you have to visit Cafe Aruba.

There are always cool locals and fun tourists. WOW! Can't say enough about this place.“

“Slammin'!

But they "lie" though. They call it 'Hook's Catch'... but this place is off tha hook 😂

Cool peoples; EXCELLENT seafood!!!

s/o to Mano there too“

“Loved everything about this restaurant. They have great service and amazing food. You must try their collard greens and hush puppies. We loved the crab legs!!!“

“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 just happy I found this place. That clam chowder was perfect! Now I don't have to run home to enjoy good New England seafood.“

“Honestly, this place isn't the fanciest seafood joint on the Treasure Coast. It's just the best. Great food, well prepared, quickly and cheerfully served. It can sometimes be a wait to be seated, but that's a bonus in my book.“

“We had the calamari, twin lobsters, ravioli, broccolini, all were fantastic! Fresh, tender, buttery, exceptionally WOW. The service was on point, food was warm, beers were cold. We were there on a Saturday, parking was ample as other businesses were closed, the spot is on the corner. We are going back for more and remember you can BYOB. Thank you.“

“A MUST! Great place with a great vibe!!!“

“I come here on Sundays and the brunch menu is so good. This place has a great conch salad. There’s a live DJ who’s awesome too. 10/10 recommend coming here for lunch!“

“Fast friendly service, great food.“

“The original rum runner and a blackened Mahi Mahi sandwich after a day at the beach. Price is a little higher but fresh fish with a place with no freezers within a 3 hours drive? I’ll pay for that. Great job, awesome service. Nice day on local summer.“

“Excellent food, chef Dee’s is a hidden gem. My wife and I loved everything we ordered. The sashimi, sushi rolls, snapper Francese was all excellent and loved the variety on the menu, especially the options with wahoo!! We will be back.“

“We went this evening after seeing a friend post the menu. WOW!!! We sat right at the bar and had the Drunken Mussels app, gumbo, shrimp poboy, and shrimp taco. What a GREAT meal. The staff was friendly and top notch. We met Chef Joe who obviously has passion, talent, skill and fantastic people skills and enjoyed chatting with him just as much as his creations. We went on a lark and we definitely will be back to try the other items on the menu... and we will be bringing our friends.“

“It was our first time at Daniel’s and we were impressed and will definitely be back! We started at the bar with cocktails and the restaurant was buzzy and played great music. We then proceeded to dinner and the wine list was nice and we start with the chips and caviar, Cesar salad and the pastrami and bao buns. Everything was FABULOUS. Our waiter Nate was knowledgeable about the menu, attentive and very personable. For our main dishes we ordered the sesame crusted tuna which was fresh and tasty, the filet mignon and the Australian strip steak. Perfectly prepared, delicious and we loved the sauce. For dessert we had the chocolate chip skillet cookie with vanilla ice cream. It was good but needed more ice cream. Next time, I will get the Keylime pie. The pricing was a little on the expensive side, but this is a nice place to come for a special occasion or if you’re just craving some really good food…highly recommend.“

“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.“

“The best crab legs in Florida !“

“great wings cooked exactly the way you want“

“I'm not sure if my last review came through so I will repeat it. All of the reviews I've read on this place is what made me come here except for the ridiculously entitled people who complain about having to wait an extra 10 minutes. To attack a business because they're busy and they're doing their best to get you a seed is selfish and shows how much you think the world revolves around you. I wish they had an app that you can review the reviewer. I hope you get stuck in traffic for the next month. I hope the next time you have to crap in public The person that's in the bathroom before you has constipation. I also hope the next time you have a toothache The dentist gets a flat tire and makes you wait in the waiting room for 45 minutes. This is a great restaurant The food was very good The server was very nice never even paid attention to how long it took to see us I was actually kind of excited because the place was busy and I knew it was going to be good. I was not disappointed.“

“Love this place. Food was amazing and had lots Of plates I got to sample for a low price. Our waitress was friendly, I’ve heard mixed reviews on service but I had a great experience overall, especially for the price. I recommend soup dumplings“
