Best Restaurants for Handcrafted Cocktails in Oakland Park

The energy was great and the food was even better. We weren’t even sure they had food until we had looked earlier in the day and booked a reservation and it did not disappoint. Tables were comfortable and the inside was way bigger than expected with plenty of space. Food and service were awesome and the drinks were also really great. Highly recommend for date night or with a big group for lots of laughs.

The lamb with (purple) mashed potatoes were delightful to my taste buds, the shrimp pasta was superb and the Jungle Queen beverage was delicious!!! Can't wait to come back and try other menu items!!!

We frequent Tap 42 often and return due to the outstanding experience. The only issue we had last night is the customers at the next table brought 3 dogs. One was very well behaved and 2 were very rambunctious, to say the least. They even chewed and disconnected the holiday lights on the tree. The owners did nothing. The waitress had to point it out to them. Then when leaving, they expected us to step over the dogs. We love dogs but people should be advised when bringing them, your business is not a dog park. Just want to point out if someone tripped over one of those dogs, your company holds the liability.

Food and service are always excellent! This was our fifth time to eat there. It is our go to place when we are cruising from Fort Lauderdale. Very authentic Cuban food.
