The menu is not very extensive because it is a bar, its added value is its location facing the sea. I recommend it to go see the sunset, it has no equal.

Lovely beach place to have drinks. We just passed by after dinner and spent some hours here looking at the beach while enjoying good drinks and really friendly service. The place got a little busy so the bartenders, even if super professional needed a little time to get your drinks. But, I get it. And they were really friendly.

sat at the bar for 10 mins before Julie even acknowledged us. then we waited 10 more minutes to get drinks. She was very unorganized and no personality for someone who bartends. We t back the next morning and asked her for a glass of ICe and she said she was to busy she had too much to do.and then d have to come back later. so her coworker politely came over and helped me.

This place has an amazing view of the beach. There are chairs along the back toward the beach where you can sit and just watch the beauty of the ocean. The food was mid level I'd say. The fries came out cold and the fish tacos had more bites of lettuce than with fish. The rice and beans were very tasty. The server was nice and attentive. There was a DJ playing fun dance music and not too loud that you couldn't talk. I had a subpar icy $14 pina colada. For that it would've been better with a rum float on top like a delicious creamy one I had at another place down the street. Don't come for the food or drinks...come for the view and fun music.

I have no clue how this place has a 4 star rating ??? The only thing this place has going for it is location, it's the only place to get food at this end of El Mar blvd without having to take the 12 minute walk to LBS town....trust me take the walk !$14 to $16 dollar frozen drinks, most of the food is pre frozen, had a salad $16 plus $6 fir a pc of Mahi, $22.00, was small, fish was frozen, disgusting, if your pressed for time or hanging on tbe beach and just need to grab a burger , we'll then convince will win out, but if you've got the extra 20 minutes to walk round-trip into town, Everything there is a better choice.

This is our favorite beach bar in Fort Lauderdale. Wonderful views, a great vibe, friendly staff and surprisingly decent food. If you’re staying anywhere in metro FLL, you should give it a try.

Great sea view bar with great food and reasonable prices. I had the best fish and chips I had in my life. Atmosphere was great. Views were great. Waiters are quite available and quick but they don’t come and disturb you every three minutes asking if you need something else.This restaurant is also open to public as a walk in. You don’t need to be staying at the hotel. The valet also allow you to self park your car for 10$.It is a must try, far better than restaurants at the lauderdale by the sea.

Food was good, staff was friendly, and location was pretty nice too. You have a view of the beach while eating your food.

Hidden behind Plunge Hotel, this bar is a gem! Overlooks the ocean, good vibe, good music, great service, food and drinks! Glad our friends ran into it by mistake. We'll be back very soon.

Seemed pretty busy and small but it has a great view and entrance to the Sea. Drinks are pricey but not strong at all so be sure to ask for extra alcohol.

Friendly staff, good drinks .. only had chicken wings, 4 stars because it’s too expensive
