Best Waterfront Restaurants in Ft. Lauderdale

Always great food. Service was excellent. Been here many times and never disappoints

Reminded me of old Florida from when I was growing up. Not the food or the service but the vibe. Laid back. Casual. We loved sitting there with our drinks watching the boats go by, enjoying the breeze Beth was a great server. The grouper fingers and the Caesar salad with shrimp and my husband’s fish tacos were the best.

Our server was great! They had live music & we were sitting outside. The male performer had a lovely voice, but it was hard to have a conversation at our table. It was very windy on the outside deck, so we had to sit close to the singer for the building to block the wind.

Shooters was a great experience all around. We had reservations and were sat immediately. The hostess gave us the option of dining in doors or outside along the water and we chose outside. It was a beautiful breezy evening with boats periodically docking there and the passengers getting off and having dinner. Our server was very nice, polite, and checked on us frequently. We ordered the chili wings to start, and I had the ahi tuna salad which was phenomenal and my friend had the Cajun shrimp pasta which looked amazing and he really enjoyed because he ate it all. Everything was tasty, seasoned well, and very good. We had drinks, an old fashion, and a glass of champagne. We didn’t save room for dessert but when I eat there again I’ll make sure to leave room to try the apple pie. All in all it was a wonderful dining experience and I will return. The only thing that was bizarre is that the restaurant is on the waterway, so when we were leaving, the entire street was flooded with a couple feet of water seemingly from the tide rising high enough to spill into the road. I have no idea why no one has raised that wall to keep the water out or built a dam like contraption to keep the water in at night because the street floods pretty deep. Other than that, the restaurant is worth every second and penny.

Really yummy unique food, great service, fun classy fun atmosphere. Had live singer who was great, everyone was dancing, many birthdays celebrated. Can’t wait to return with friends.
