    This is our go to place when we go to Fort Lauderdale. Food is spot on and high-quality seafood. Ambience is great and our server, Franco, was outstanding. I highly recommend it?

    Not the experience I expected. We are long time patrons, and have been coming to this restaurant every time we are in Florida for years. We checked in over 30 minutes before the reservation and were told to stay near the bar for them to call us when ready. That time came and went and we finally asked if they forgot us and they came said they couldn’t find us even though we were literally three feet away. We watched walk ins and later reservations get seated. So by the time we got seated, it wasn’t an intimidate booth, it was a huge round table with just us two. So we got a crappy seating for checking in early while walk ins got cozy booths. The same octopus we’ve ordered for years was rubbery and chewy. The bread was dry. I ordered scallops. They felt heavy and fried and I couldn’t finish them. Partner’s tuna was very good he said. Coffee came, cold and old. Server didn’t ask why we didn’t touch it at $4 a cup. A random waiter came by and removed the sugar off our table mid dessert. Coffee cups full and he swipes the sugar. No one else’s. Took it right to the back for no apparent reason. I disliked this evening so much, I don’t think I’ll make any effort again to ever come back. There are too many other options now. As for the decor, it’s the most beautiful restaurant I have ever seen.

    Our go to Spot when in Fort Lauderdale. Did not disappoint . Started with Lobster bisque without lobster chunk really good. Hubby started with the Crab cakes delicious!! We split the spinach salad possibly the best spinach salad I have ever had and I make a good one. Hubby splurged to have the Alaskan king crab, 3 large legs steamed to perfection. I had the specialty of the house..2 deep fried lobster tails with clarified butter and a delicious aioli. Couldn’t finish the 2nd one would have taken it home if we were not going on a cruise the next day. This is a little pricey but darn well worth every penny

    As a steak foodie who only goes to the best prime steak houses I found the strip steak seriously lacking at Lobster Bar Sea Grill. While cooked to perfection the steak was tasteless and certainly not what I am used to. Also, while dining I like to be able to have a conversation with my guests which is difficult in this very noisy restaurant. Acoustics needs serious upgrade.

    Food is delicious but the host staff is very rude. We waited almost 40 minutes after our reservation time for a table and the hostess gave us a table by a service station, when I asked to be moved so my husbands broken arm wouldn’t be bumped she gave us the biggest attitude. She said we would have to wait longer and I said no problem. When she sat us down she rolled her eyes. Nice to know they don’t care to accommodate someone that is injured.

    Was seated but took close to 10 minutes before a waiter even came to the table. Took salad and drink order but never asked to fill water glasses. That is serving 101. Water first! Food was great, service was horrible

    Our server was superb. The menu recommendations were all 5-star, and the drinks were delicious. We loved the approachable and welcoming staff. We loved the chic, yet casual environment.
