Best Seasonal Restaurants in Lauderdale by the Sea

My experience at shooters waterfront is always amazing. My waitress Tiana and the manager Rob went above and beyond to accommodate our table. This is one of my favorite restaurants. The food is absolutely superb. The staff is amazing and they will treat you like family. I highly recommend this restaurant for any and every occasion!

Mastro's was all around amazing 11/10 experience. Parking: Valet was $8 nice young man! Upon entering the ambience is great. The staff was very friendly every staff we came in contact with while walking to our table greeted us. Our server provided exceptional service, he was attentive and friendly and offered great recommendations. His service was the cherry on top an excellent night. My boyfriend enjoyed his birthday! His name on the menu was a great touch. We sat outside the view was great. The food was delicious and the drinks were outstanding The bread basket 10/10 Appetizers: Fried Calamari 11/10 they were fired just right loved the sauce. Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes 10/10 Main: Jerked Spiced Grouper 11/10 perfection Herb Roasted Branzino 10/10 Lobster Mashed Potatoes 9/10 Mac & Cheese 11/10 rich and creamy Creamed Spinach 10/10 Cheesecake 10/10

Everything was as amazing as we remembered from the last time many years ago when we were there on a visit to Fort Lauderdale. I only wish we had gone during the day when we could have enjoyed the view. The Christmas decorations in the main room were magical. The staff was helpful and our server, Heather, was especially kind and efficient. The food was delicious and delivered promptly. No complains at all. We look forward to our next visit.

Excellent experience from start to finish. Food was on point, service as well the Four Seasons is absolutely beautiful. I have NO complaints just Two ticky-tack drawbacks that might help others. 1) we were seated right by the servers station in the back very close to another table, we asked for something else since we were celebrating a special occasion, but weren’t moved (in a 1/2 empty restaurant) Luckily, the other table wasn’t seated until we got our entrees because not sure I could stand hearing 2 bros talking loudly about their Hamptons summer house plans for much longer. 2) Valet was $24 but no one told us we could validate at the restaurant for $5 off…I mean at $24 to park for 2 hours, not like $5 is going to save the world, but would have been nice to know that before we walked out to valet and then had to walk back to validate. Valet asked were we were going, we said restaurant, they could have easily told us to validate the parking. None of these would stop us from coming back…we’ll just be sure to park on the street and be more knowledgable about where to sit. I felt the cost was worth the meal, that being said, we didn’t fill up on $25 cocktails and $30 glasses of wine. I could easily see how the liquor bill could easily supersede the food bill. But will be back for the food experience for sure!

We were sat promptly at our reservation time, server gave us warm greeting. Acknowledged our birthday celebration, had a few drinks, ordered appetizers and dinner everything was great and cooked to order. Except the scalloped potatoes, I thought they were undercooked and way too much bread crumbs, but didn’t complain because everything else about the evening was perfect. Definitely recommend the galería capital grille location. Even the chef came out to wish my wife a happy birthday!!
