Top 15 Affordable Restaurants in Fort Lauderdale, FL

Daniel Yan The owner was super kind and thoughtful. 10/10 service. The food was delicious. Not a single thing we ordered was bad. The bread was great along with the vegetable soup. Highlights were the eggplant parmigiana, linguini and meatballs, and shrimp pasta. To top it all off everything was very affordable being about $25 per person. For this price, service, and quality we will definitely be coming again when we’re back in the area.

Arnise Augustin Kaluz is always a vibe... when the weather is comfortable, get seated outside... the view is incredible watching the yachts/boats pass by... I like to try the seasonal chef suggestions when it comes to my meal, just to keep things interesting... just make sure to leave room for dessert! The options are beyond delicious.... I love the bread pudding and the banana cake!

Joni Tabano We had great food, service a+ and the ambiance is breathtakingly beautiful. Aside from all of that, I was so impressed by the little extra touches that each dish came with. The Burrata had balsamic pearls, the carpaccio had crunchy scallions, the pork chop dish, which was outstanding had gooseberry relish the most amazing flavors beyond anyone’s expectations. What an overall amazing amazing experience. Don’t miss this one! e

Mads Went here on New Years Eve. There was a wait so we put down our name and number and table was ready in about 20 minutes. The staff worked seamlessly together and it was clear the managers were on the floor helping in anyway they could. We got the chips/salsa, quesadillas and beef tacos. All delicious! Service was prompt and efficient. Great to see a restaurant working so well together and employees happy to be there!

Luisa Gamboa What a great option to enjoy fresh, perfectly cooked seafood. Excellent service and an incredible ocean view. Very fair prices. A highly recommended place.

Vangie N Excellent dinner. The tastes and experience was amazing.. Ryan our server was fantastic.. he put up with our backwards way of ordering with a smile. It was a great experience I highly recommend not missing out on this place!!

Rebecca Urquidi This place exceeded my expectations. The restaurant had a good vibe, it wasnt fancy but also wasnt too casual. They had good music, and most importantly the most delicious fried seafood Ive ever had. The outdoor seating was plentiful and very clean. We got the happy hour drinks and oysters. The oysters were amazing. We shared the mixed seafood basket with scallops, clams, and shrimp. Everything was excellent, not greasy. You can get half a basket of onion rings which was just the perfect size for two people. The coleslaw was also so good. Most importantly they have off-menu double fried chicken wings some told us about. I wasnt sure about them but Im glad we tried them. They were amazing! Finished of with a slice of key lime pie, cant go wrong.

KimberlyJo Vaughan I chose dinner at the bar with Brigitte, which was my first great choice. She steered me toward the Hangar Steak and it was the absolute best Ive ever had. Seasoned, charred, spiced, perfectly medium rare. And the Fries!!!! So light and creamy inside, equally light and crunchy outside! Wow! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Ayana Adaya I don’t even like Italian food like that but this place is incredible. My boyfriend and I went with our other couple friends on a Saturday night and they had live music playing. Everything we ordered was amazing and the service was great. Thank you Jonathan and Kevin for a great experience. We’ll definitely be back.

Joseph Vitale I will tell you this is one of the best places in downtown Fort Lauderdale . You must try the tomahawk steak not only you get a good show but the steak was very tender and tasty. The mashed potatoes was on the money the place is very clean live entertainment with a DJ and bathrooms were clean. Definitely would come back

Camille Watson Everything was wonderful. Great service from the moment we called for a reservation. Our waiter was Louis V, attentive and friendly plus he brought me cake and ice cream for my birthday which was out of this world delicious. Our meals, Omg!!! Too good. Sea Bass cooked perfectly and Sea Scallops delightful. Will be going back . Views awesome. I’d like to say you can have great views but without the service and the awesome food it means nothing so thanks for everything guys. I had a beautiful 56th birthday.

Michael Amtzis Amazing Italian restaurant with New York roots at Fort Lauderdale Beach. As soon as we walked in we were greeted and sat by the floor manager Rob. We received a warm welcome and made feel at home. Fernando our server was excellent, friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about each selection on the menu and made our whole experience top notch. We ordered the Tagliatelle Bolognese and the Spaghetti Carbonara. Both outstanding and comforting classic dishes. And for dessert the Pana Cotta and Affogato for the finishing touch! Will definitely return to Vitolo’s

Chris Awesome food, the grouper was flaky and delicious. Worlds best key lime pie, no question about it - so good it didnt even make it to this review as a whole piece as we couldnt stop eating it. Fresh bread at the table (pumpernickel and a sesame grain), incredible wine selection to pair with your meals. Very modestly price for the service and quality of food.

Deborah Tiger Evelyn’s delivers an outstanding Mediterranean brunch experience from start to finish. The food was absolutely delicious—fresh, flavorful, beautifully presented, and thoughtfully prepared. Every dish showcased high-quality ingredients and authentic Mediterranean flavors that truly stood out. Equally impressive was the staff. The service was warm, attentive, and professional without ever feeling rushed. Everyone was welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely committed to making the experience memorable. Set in the elegant atmosphere of the Four Seasons, Evelyn’s is the perfect spot for a relaxed yet refined brunch. Exceptional food, impeccable service, and a wonderful overall experience. Highly recommend!

Wendy Rolon Wonderful update to the new Garden Hotel and The Greenhouse terrace and pool bar. Food was terrific and Lizzy makes a very excellent Amalfi Mojito!
