- LLee AnneFort Lauderdale •3 reviews5.0Dined 1 day agoI''ve been to American Tapas five times this year, and I hardly ever go to a restaurant twice during the winter season. Like the decor, the vibe, the food. My favorite food being the Spinach-Artichole Dip, the Fried Cauliflower, the Chicken and Waffles and the S'mores. Also enjoy the Espresso Martinis. The live music is usually good too.More infoAmerican Tapas BarPrice: Moderate• American• Lauderdale by the Sea•4.6
- CCassandraVIPChicago / Illinois •96 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoDune continues to provide an outstanding dining experience and remains my favorite high end restaurant in Ft Lauderdale. It is elegant in its contemporary design. The service is exceptional—gracious, unobtrusive, informative, friendly. The food is fitting for “foodies” yet robust enough for a broad range of tastes. Dune is wonderful for special celebrations or holidays like Valentine’s Day or Mother’s Day especially when they have musicians like a harpist or saxophonist and singers who add to the ambience. I highly recommend Dune.More infoDUNE By Laurent TourondelPrice: Expensive• Contemporary American• Lauderdale Beach•4.2

- RRALPHNew York City •2 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoWe were seated quicking and had a reservation. Beautiful waterfront dining on the intercoastal waterway. Our server Ashley was excellent, friendly and very attentive. We were not rushed although the place filled up quickly. Ordered the sushi as an appy then went with their their fresh fish entrees. truely fresh and delicious. Portions were generous. For dessert we had the cheescake and the 5 layer chocolate cake. We were told all desserts were baked on premises by their pastry chef and it showed. The chocolate cake was HUGE for $ 14 no way to even attempt to finish it. If I had to pick on one item, not their fault, the sunset was blocked by a high building acroos the waterway.More infoShooters WaterfrontPrice: Expensive• Seafood• Lauderdale Beach•4.5
