Restaurants in Lauderdale-by-the-Sea

“Amazing experience. First time here. Matt was my sandwich maker and these guys are really good at making 💣 sandwiches.

I was impressed by how full eating half my sandwich left me and how delicious it was.
I ordered the italian special sub no mayo no mustard no pickles no hot peppers. This thing was DELICIOUS.”

“Amazing bowls and smoothies! Totally recommend if you want something fresh and tasty”

“We came 3 times last week ! (couple from Europe) We love your chicken pad thai SO much !”

“My husband and I have traveled all over Italy. He is a great cook, who rarely compliments most Italian restaurants in America, but thought this little gem was spectacular. The food was simple, fresh and delicious. A true Roman trattoria. Bravo Marco and Valentina. Will definitely eat here again!”

“Great place close to the beach! Love their crepes! This place will be one of our favorites for sure! Highly recommend.”

“I recently had the pleasure of dining at Pier 14, and I can confidently say that it exceeded all my expectations! From the moment I arrived, the management staff made me feel right at home. Their attention to detail and commitment to guest satisfaction were evident throughout my visit. They genuinely care about creating a memorable experience, and it shows! The barge ders are an absolute delight. Their friendly demeanor and expert knowledge of the menu made our time there even more enjoyable. They were quick to recommend some of the best dishes, and I was blown away by their recommendations! Speaking of food, it was nothing short of incredible. Each dish was crafted with care, bursting with flavor, and beautifully presented. Whether you’re a fan of seafood, steak, or vegetarian options, there’s something for everyone. I highly recommend trying their signature dishes—you won’t be disappointed! The atmosphere at Pier 14 is simply magical. With stunning views and a lively yet relaxed vibe, it’s the perfect spot for a night out with friends or a romantic dinner. The ambiance is enhanced by the talented DJ, who spun an eclectic mix of tracks that kept the energy high without overpowering conversation. The combination of great music and a vibrant crowd made for an unforgettable evening. Overall, Pier 14 is a must-visit destination. The exceptional management, outstanding barge ders, mouthwatering food, and fantastic atmosphere all come together to create a truly remarkable dining experience. I can’t wait to return!”

“Awesome Breakfast And Best Food in FBTS”

“Food was amazing waiter was fabulous. Every entree was cooked to perfection. We sat by the water under the full moon great atmosphere. The only negative I had after a 250$ check is to find the next day someone at the restaurant ran my car again and again for another 250 2xs. Food was great so maybe next time ill pay cash”

“Highly recommend! Everything was fresh and delicious! We will be back!”

“Our first time and what a wonderful experience. The staff was very welcoming and friendly. The food came out fast and hot and was very tasty! We had the caprese salad, margarita pizza and gnocchi in pink sauce. All was delicious!!! We most certainly will be coming back and spreading the word!!”

“We were there September 19 & 20! We discovered this cool beach cafe and absolutely loved this place! Cool bartenders and an awesome atmosphere! The food and drinks were fantastic and just loved this place! When we visit Fort Lauderdale again, we will definitely come back!!!!!!”

“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.”

“I ate here a few weeks ago while on vacation and had the Cuban sandwich and a shake! Both were made by the owner and I’ll be honest the Cuban was amazing. The owner was very down to earth and chatted with me while I was eating. Awesome new local business plus they also have a food truck. I’m down in Fort Lauderdale at least once a year and I’ll definitely be stopping by this place again!”

“Great food with great service”

“Baila was very nice and the gelato looks to die for!

I asked her if she was willing to support her community and she jumped right in to help. She misses Latvia, but sure made my visit to Gelato-Go feel like home.

There’s room for several people but the area is so nice that it’s the kind of place to take and go explore I think. Definitely recommend.”

“I just happened to be in the area around midnight. Saw the place and figured I'd pop in for a second. Especially since everything eles i. The immediate area was closed. Nothing much to write about. It's a quaint, hole in the wall, local bar. However, Stephanie the bartender was amazing dealing with a full house of people and keeping track of every customer she had. I'd definitely go again if I'm in the area.”

“The resort was better than expected. Check in was effortless.. Patrick was awesome. Bed & pillows extremely comfortable. Air conditioning ran perfectly. Shower was huge & worked great. Room was a decent size. Coffee shop & breakfast place was absolutely delicious & huge portions. Beach was so beautiful… beach chairs & towels with optional umbrella brought out to the beach for you. They even had several games in the lobby! We will definitely be back. Also, so many things within walking distance, bars & restaurants or shops.”
