Zach1213 Posted April 10, 2018 #2 Share Posted April 10, 2018 What's your budget? The Capital Grille is, as always, phenomenal, and a great start to any vacation...but for a couple it can easily cost $150 + drinks for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbain Posted April 10, 2018 #3 Share Posted April 10, 2018 we went to 15th st fisheries and ate outside downstairs last week. Food was amazing. 1 mile walk of 6 buck uber from the hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have one at home as well and heard it is fabulous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LMaxwell Posted April 10, 2018 #5 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Boatyard is quite good and reasonable prices for the area http://boatyard.restaurant Also suggest using the Water Taxi for incredible views of yachts/homes and who owns them; they have about 15 stops at various hotels and restaurants. watertaxi.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan-P Posted April 10, 2018 #6 Share Posted April 10, 2018 For us, no trip to Ft. Lauderdale is complete without a stop at Coconuts. You can get there via a short Uber ride or even the Water Taxi: http://coconutsfortlauderdale.com/ Dan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester & Brewster Posted April 10, 2018 #7 Share Posted April 10, 2018 The best meal I've ever had in Florida was at Coconuts in FL. It was a few years ago now, but if the food is still as good as it was back then it's definitely worth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zach1213 Posted April 10, 2018 #8 Share Posted April 10, 2018 The Capital Grille is a chain right? We have one at home as well and heard it is fabulous! Definitely a chain and it's fantastic. I've never had a bad thing there - steak, seafood, sides, drinks. You get what you pay for, and it's delicious. Whenever someone says they don't like chains, I dare them to say they don't like Capital Grille! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScubaDo Posted April 10, 2018 #11 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Go to Las Olas and check out the restaurants. I agree Coconuts or Boatyard for lunch. We love Fort Lauderdale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
actuarian Posted April 10, 2018 #12 Share Posted April 10, 2018 If you like German food and German beer, you should try Old Heidelberg. IMHO, Old Heidelberg has the best German food in Florida and it is right by the airport on State Road 84. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobNoxious Posted April 10, 2018 #16 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Boatyard, Coconuts, Kellys Landing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Galaxa Posted April 10, 2018 #17 Share Posted April 10, 2018 We ate at La Bamba which is a mexican as you might have guessed. It is very close to the Embassy Suites, you canwalk there in 5 minutes. It is located in Harbor Shops 1901 Cordova Road Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crism Posted April 10, 2018 #18 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I'll be there for work on Saturday! During football season, I always hit up Duffy's next to the hotel. Other times it's usually Southport Raw Bar. I'll probably check out Boatyard this time after reading the good reviews. Lots of good choices in the area. Don't forget the free breakfast and happy hour at the hotel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WyKnott Posted April 10, 2018 #19 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I third the recommendation for Coconuts. They're very busy so if you can, make a reservation. And if scoobies are available, get them. YUM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chester & Brewster Posted April 10, 2018 #20 Share Posted April 10, 2018 And if scoobies are available, get them. YUM. OMG yes! We still talk about them now 🦀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
payitforward Posted April 10, 2018 #21 Share Posted April 10, 2018 All of the above are great. A few weeks ago, while staying at the Embassy Suites, I stumbled on the Quarterdeck Restaurant. It seemed more like a local place. The food and service were spectacular. I just happened to hit the night when they had a lobster dinner special for $16.95.

lakings39 Posted April 10, 2018 #22 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Count me as a fourth for Coconuts! We make a point to have lunch there every single time we are in Fort Lauderdale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arubamoose Posted April 10, 2018 #23 Share Posted April 10, 2018 Love sitting outside at 15th Street Fisheries.....great way to spend an leisurely lunch watching the boats go back and forth and the bridge go up and down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
