Best Authentic Restaurants in Hollywood

We loved the ambience and would definitely would return. The spaghetti carbonara was outstanding but the house mozzarella wrapped in prosciutto was the best. The staff was very accommodating and the Service was well-timed and friendly, wines were affordable. Our server, Antonio, went above and beyond.

Authentic and tasty Mexican food. Much better than any chain.

This is my second time here. Definitely does not disappoint! The food is amazing! Service impeccable. Food for every diet, there are vegan dishes, gluten-free dishes you will find what you want, and it will leave you wanting more I’m just sad. I didn’t try this restaurant sooner!

Food can be better. The goulash over polenta was not very good. Beef was ok, polenta was terrible hard. Branzino was decent but a bit overcooked

We had an absolutely wonderful dining experience at Ocean Grill and Bar, a lovely Latin-Mediterranean restaurant located on Harrison St. in downtown Hollywood, Fl near the circle. The hostess, Yasmin, greets you warmly as you enter, and you are seated immediately. The beautiful ambiance envelopes you, and you are wrapped in stunning color and lights. For starters, I had large shrimp bathed in milk cream and sitting in these delicious pastry cups. My husband had cerviche, which was very fresh and loaded with many kinds of seafood, both shellfish and fish. The citrus flavor enhanced the dish well, as did the various vegetables that were part of the cerviche. Complimentary homemade hummus with pita triangles was the best we've ever had. For our main course, I had the citrus salmon accompanied by mashed potatoes and asparagus. My husband had a whole sea bass with a variety of vegetables. Both were outstanding. Yasmin comes to the table and torches your herbs so that they are infused into the fish. Such a nice touch. We shared their homemade coconut creme Brule, which was also torched in front of us to give the dessert a nice crispy topping. A beautiful and talented singer sang in both English and Spanish, entertaining us and adding a festive mood as she danced and interacted with the diners. Ocean Grill and Bar is the place to go if you want magnificent food, superb ambiance, fun entertainment, and a staff who treats you like royalty. Thank you, Yasmin, our beautiful hostess, Roberto, our friendly, sweet waiter, and Osvaldo, the kind and caring manager.
