Best Open Kitchen Restaurants in Lauderdale by the Sea

We have dined at North Italia in Cherry Creek, CO several times. This was our first experience at the Fort Lauderdale location and it was just as amazing as CO. The staff and managers were so accommodating to us being a large party with several toddlers. They were as sweet as can be in making sure we were comfortable and felt welcomed. The food and cocktails were so delicious. Highly, highly recommend!!

Excellent food, great vibe and very nice service! Really enjoyed every aspect of the restaurant Steal was delicious, calamari was spicy and tasty and lobster Mac and cheese was phenomenal

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!
