Best Casual Restaurants in Oakland Park

Great, casual dining and friendly service directly across from the beach in Fort Lauderdale!

Impressed!!! Busy restaurant that delivers great food and service. It was busy holiday night ( we were told one of their busiest nights of the year) and you saw perfect execution from the complimentary valet, to the women who greeted/seated us. Waiter and bussers were dancing throughout the restaurant with purpose and ease. Our waiter, Hector knows his menu and was attentive, personable and cheerful. ( I was impressed with other waitstaff nearby. ) An expertly trained team. The food was sublime. Every ingredient balanced with nuance.We tarted with rock shrimp appetizer and the Cacio & pepe with lobster — so delicious. We ordered the specials- stuffed pork chop and I had osso buco. I had to have the Italian ricotta cheesecake with mascarpone. Our compliments to the chef.Outstanding!!!!! It is worth repeating that even on their busiest night , every detail from service to food was perfectly executed, We will be back!!!!

Christmas dinner at Mastro’s was fantastic. The food, as always is amazing…perfectly seasoned and presented. They serve love on a plate at Mastro’s! The staff is always warm and welcoming when I return. Preston, the manager stopped by the table to insure everything was satisfactory. David & Steve were very gracious in greeting us. Stefan provided excellent service throughout the evening. It is a pleasurable experience dining at Mastro’s each and every time. I can’t wait to return!

Our first time dining at Camille's and it was excellent , it was christmas eve and along with regular menu there were fish specials. Our server was Nick , cheerful, knowledgeable what a treat. Had baked clams, burrata salad, mussels Entrée shrimp scampi, Octopus , linguine with clams and chicken parm , not like the usual, thicker cutlet with a not too sweet sauce. Try this place, totally renovated and full bar

The Trulucks restuarant group has always been one of my favorites . If you want an exceptional experience go there . Just remember to bring your best credit card and enjoy .
