Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Landings

We are locals and there is a reason the Seawatch has been open almost 50 years. From the friendly valet staff then the hostess and the serving staff, they make you feel welcomed. Drink menu is very good and the wine selections are a great pairing for any item on their menu. The location and ambiance makes for a pleasurable dining experience. On our visit (This is one of their busiest weeks of the year) we chose to sit in the patio area to enjoy the night air. Our server was most attentive and informative with our menu questions and wine selections. Food was prepared to perfection, seafood fresh and came out hot. This was quite a task being as busy as they were. We had a wonderful time, as usual as we always count on them for a great dinner or celebrating an occasion with family.

Beautiful space. Sat outdoor. Windy night but heat lamps helped. Super friendly and attentive service staff. Great food and drinks. Loved the spicy margarita and Branzino entree. Will definitely come back next time we are in Fort Lauderdale!

Takato never disappoints. Food and staff were amazing. We had lamb chops,sea bass, kimchi fried rice, shrimp fried rice, California roll, spicy tuna roll, yellowtail sashimi, machine, chocolate lava cake, specialty martini, cosmo, and a spicy margarita. Everything was amazing. The only bad part is this place seems to attract screaming kids with entitled parents with no regard and don't do anything. Not that the restaurant can help that but it is frustrating and definitely has an effect on the ambiance. Regardless, this is definitely one of the top restaurants in Ft. Lauderdale with amazing sushi and so much more.

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!

The service was amazing. The food was amazing. I had the shrimp and scallop risotto. It’s always excellent and we share the dessert of the crème brûlée bread pudding. It was the best I’ve ever had.
