Best Waterfront Restaurants in Oakland Park

Tje food and service was great. Ambience amazing with that beautiful view and December weather. My only complain with be the $30 charge for two scallops on our sea bass order. Way to much and the server never advise about it. In nothing about been cheap but the charge was outrageous and destroyed the whole experience. I think they have to be upfront with the extra menu charges and let the customers decide. Besides that I highly recommend this place for an special occasion

This place at night is beautiful we did outdoor dining my man & I for Christmas Eve, I received a text earlier then my reservation time which was great, we got seated immediately. Our server came to us provided us with water and took our chose of drinks and explained certain dishes we had questions on, we ordered and appetizer came to our table at a reasonable time, we then ordered our entrees and food also came out at a reasonable time, our food was fresh and tasty. Took a walk inside this place is a gem, if your looking for a nice night out this is a place you should definitely try, looking forward on doing brunch one weekend.

Go there so often. A bit too often simply because the food is delicious and the service is always good. Chris was our waiter who was super nice and constantly checked on our table. Food is made to order but def worth the wait. I would have gave it 5 stars but I asked for my meal without specific veggies that come in the meal but my meal was full of them. Chris offered to get me a new meal but I didn’t want to hassle or have them throw the meal away and waste food so I just picked out the veggies an put it on a separate plate. My husband ordered his steak cooked “medium” and chef cooked it medium well which made the steak tougher and Chris offered to switch it out and hubby chose to eat it as it was. Chris bringing it to the managers attention shows staff does care about their customers….. EXACTLY the reason why we keep going back. Food is delicious and service as always, is top tier. Their is one minor thing I did notice that I’m not too thrilled about is that they automatically charge a 20% tip already included in the bill. I know a lot of places do that when it’s a party of 6 or more however, it was only 3 of us. I ALWAYS tip my servers but I think I should be at my discretion.

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.

After traveling all day and wanting to go somewhere within walking distance I booked Sands Harbor. We were here several times when Rusty Hook owned the place. No whole fish fried with Thai chili sauce, bummer, but the food was pretty good. Grouper bites were good with yummy tarter sauce (always a good sign). My husband got the steak sandwich after toying with mahi tacos. He said the steak was tender and everything that went along was tasty especially the slaw which was plentiful and pretty delicious, also a sign of a good restaurant. I had the steak bites over Spanish rice with chimmichuri which was delightful, not so sure it was Spanish but very tasty. Lots of crunchy flavorful broccoli to balance out the fried fish bites. And the steak was grilled with mushrooms, peppers and onions, all really delicious. We got a bottle of wine and took the leftovers home. Definitely go that route because the glass pours seemed very small. Our server was a little green but super sweet and took great care of us. We sat under the covered area because it threatened rain but none came along. The open air breeze was so nice after coming from CT’s unpredictable now winter type weather, ugh. Great first day restaurant pick for sure. Not a luxury menu and missed that Thai fish dish but satisfying all the same. I hear the flatbread is nothing special. Our server said the vodka sauce pasta was his favorite but we weren’t feeling pasta. Great views of the intercostal with a nice breeze. Can’t go wrong there. Very relaxing and peaceful.
