Good food and chill vibes. Geo was very friendly and provided great service. Will be back

The ambiance is very nice. Although it was raining we were very comfortable. The best part of the restaurant is the service. Santi and Renzo were our waiters and they made sure we had a great experience! It was my grandson's birthday and they brought cake and sang. Everybody was very nice!! Highly recommended read more

Emily's Garden - Patio - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Ft. Lauderdale, Florida

My friend & I stopped by to check out their brunch menu & we sat outside. Our server was quite attentive & we placed our orders: I got the blue matcha drink (soooo good) & my friend got one of the cold pressed juices. They also have lattes, smoothies and much more beverages. For good I got the goat cheese croquettes & the grilled chicken tacos for my meal. My friend ordered the American breakfast with a side of banana pancakes (so fluffy and great with or without the syrup). They have a gelato menu that looked worthy of coming back for! Overall, it was a good experience. Street parking and parking garage available near by & worth stopping by for, they also have a separate dinner menu that looked tasty. I would come back again and order something totally different as they have many good options and a variety to choose from. read more

Overall, a pretty disappointing experience. We ordered the breakfast tacos, and the chicken tacos were extremely dry and lacked flavor. The steak tacos were decent. The service was also underwhelming. Our waiter only came to our table three times: once to take our order, once to drop off the food, and once for check which we initiated. There was very little attentiveness throughout the meal. Not to mention the 40 minute wait for food when we were the only table that had ordered inside. Unfortunately, between the dry chicken tacos and lackluster service, the experience fell short of expectations. I wouldn't be in a rush to return. read more

We had the sweetest experience at Emily's Garden! We chose it for a special family celebration and had a group of about 15, including kids and babies. Everyone was incredibly kind and patient with our group, and we felt so welcomed the entire time. We sat inside and it was so cozy, which made the celebration feel even more special. The food was really good and everything came out with so much care. The coffee was delicious too!! It ended up being the perfect place for our family to celebrate together, and I'm so thankful for how well they treated us. ALSO: Yamila, our server was a DELIGHT!!!!! She was a blessing to our family. read more

Lovely restaurant in a garden setting steps away from the Broward Center. With a varied menu (salads, sandwiches, pizza, etc) and reasonable prices this is a great go to after a matinee or before an evening performance. Brunch until 4. Indoor seating available as well. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. Our server Darya couldn't have been nicer. read more

Groupon brought me here! I purchased a deal for a charcuterie board and wine tasting, and overall, I had a nice experience. The spot is charming, with both indoor and outdoor/garden seating. If the weather is nice, I'd definitely recommend sitting outside. While here, I also tried the breakfast, which honestly wasn't anything to rave about. However, I really enjoyed the charcuterie board and wine tasting. They also host events like poetry nights and other small gatherings, which adds to the appeal. The customer service was kind and friendly. I'd come back and give the lunch or dinner menu a try to get a better feel for the food. read more

I came here for my birthday & to be honest, I was disappointed. We got calamari & bruschetta for appetizers. The bruschetta was good, the calamari was mediocre. I got the strip steak & it again was mediocre. They comped me on the dessert & the lava cake with gelato was good. The service was ok, but the ambiance is a 100! We ate outdoors & it was beautiful. They seem to specialize in wines & the gelato is another speciality. Not sure I'd come back here just for the ambiance... read more

We visited this place for a friends birthday. Who knew this outside space existed behind this cute store front. The back of the restaurant has outdoor seating, coffee truck, sand box and most importantly - lots of fans! We were kindly greeted and sat directly in front of a fan. I ordered a meat pizza. My friends got the short rib entree. I liked my pizza. It came out quickly. Very big. I took half of it home. My friends didn't love the short rib entree. The server was so sweet and treated my friend to a birthday lemon cheesecake. So refreshing!! read more

I was so excited to try this place. It's been on my list of places to go for a while and I was so disappointed. The garden has potential if it was well kept. I was first sat at a table that had bird poop on the cushion and a little bit on the table. The other table they transferred me to was wobbly, the cushions were dirty (all the cushions on chairs I saw were gross..) The waitress took about 15 to 20 minutes to approach me and the only reason why she came is because flagged her down. I ordered a glass of Chardonnay and it was not good. As someone who had a Cooper's Hawk membership I could tell the difference in the wine. The food took so long. I told them box it up to go. Wine 2/10 - $11 Teriyaki chicken skewers $19 - decent Truffle fries $9 - best thing I had Parking lot across the street was twenty dollars there is street parking along the side you could use pay by phone app read more

Love the atmosphere at Emily's Garden! Nice outdoor setting with shade & fans to keep you cool. Last night we enjoyed the salmon & chicken piccata with pasta, but their pizzas & brunch items are great too. Yamila has been our server multiple times & she always takes great care of us! read more

We went to this super cute hidden gem and the service was phenomenal. We went around brunch time and were served quickly and nicely. As far as the appetizers, they weren't my favorite but the cheese pizza (not shown), shrimp tacos and chicken piccata was delish and everyone agreed! For desert, we all had different flavors & gelato .... but the Nutella churros is something I am still thinking about hours later! read more

First stop on a downtown Ft Lauderdale food tour, Emily's Garden is located near the Museum of Discovery and Science. The outdoor dining ambiance was superb, probably giving the term 'al fresco' the best representation I can remember. The two things served together were from the Italian side of the menu: a burrata, arugula salad and a really great arancini, served with a simple, but really good tomato sauce. Other things that added to the atmosphere were things like a converted Fiat that served gelato, and a vintage Piaggio Ape that houses an electric pizza oven. Our tour guide gave us more information about the history of the restaurant. The building is over 100 years old and had various business types reside in it. Previously to this restaurant two years ago, it used to be the Old Breakfast House, a beloved Fort Lauderdale institution. As for the name, our tour guide informed us that the owner's named the restaurant after the PREVIOUS owner's well loved dog, Emily. It was the last thing agreed that 'sealed the deal' for the transfer of ownership of the property, resulting in the Italian garden restaurant that we visited. read more

What a lovely location! Not too far from my Airbnb and a perfect place to start or end your day. In the morning, I had coffee by on the run coffee bar with a flaky and buttery croissant.. I love sitting by the sunshine and enjoying the greenery and the flowers and all the decorations here under the trees. For happy hour I enjoyed their five dollar drinks and five dollar bites! I started with a mimosa and moved onto a Pinot Noir accompanied by eggplant corn bites and truffle pizza bites! I hear there is live music on Saturday and Sunday during brunch. I highly recommend this very casual and beautiful location for your Fort Lauderdale memories. read more

Food: 5 out of 5. The food was delicious. My wife ordered the burrata, the chips and guacamole, and I ordered the steak quesadilla. The burrata was extremely fresh and our daughter loved it. The guacamole was great, though we struggled to scoop it onto our chips. The steak quesadilla was phenomenal! Service: 5 out of 5. The service was great, our server was quick and helpful the entire time we were there! Vibes: 10 out of 5. My wife and I loved the seating and outdoor vibes here! The restaurant had plenty of seating as well as unique outdoor kitchens giving it a community/garden feel. The water/rock sifter in the back was a lot of fun for the kids as well as the small tricycles/mini vespas for our daughter! read more

Jordan was fantastic! Really accommodating and helpful. Great food and atmosphere. Great place to sit outside.

Service is good. Cute atmosphere. Food is bland. Both my friend and I ordered the tuna poke bowl, suggested by the waiter. While obviously fresh, it lacked in flavor. I'm not sure anything was seasoned. There were even halved baby carrots, which is an odd add to the bowl. My other friend got the creamy caprese panini and also felt it was lacking in flavor. Maybe we tried the wrong dishes ‍ The affogato was delicious and so was the wine. read more

Gosh I really wanted to love this place. Super cute inside with a cool outdoor garden as well. To start we got the baked Brie which came out cold. Not even close to baked. Weird to serve it like that so we sent it back and it was delicious with a nice berry compote and bread. Next was dinner and one person got a wedge salad with chicken at 23 bucks. Just ok but they brought that one dinner out 10 minutes before anyone else got dinner. Wife had tuna tacos which was good but just one tiny slice of fish and the traditional add ins. Again just ok. I got the burger which looked delicious but it was so salty I left half on my plate. Came with fries that were delivered about 8 minutes after my burger. Hot and very good fries but serve as it should be served. All in all just ok. read more

Great atmosphere, wonderful service and good foot. I had a slice of quiche and a mocha latte that was delicious. It's a garden in the middle of Riverwalk craziness ( which I love.) Definitely will be back. read more

I found this place on Groupon and noticed they offered wine flights, tastings, and Sunday brunch. After checking out their website, I was instantly amazed and knew I had to visit! My grandma and I went around noon. Parking can be a bit pricey if you don't find street parking, so just be prepared for that. The food was amazing and the service was just as great, it was such a cool experience overall. I also loved that they give you options: if you just want a quick snack, you can walk up and order, or you can sit down and enjoy full service. They sell wine by the bottle and even have a wine club, which is a nice touch. I will definitely be back! read more

Stumbled upon Emily's Garden by chance whilst walking the Fort Lauderdale Riverwalk, and what a fantastic find. The ambiance is great set in a 1920s estate garden by the New River. The menu is very eclectic and our group decided on 4 starters to share: baked brie, yuca fries, arancini, and the bruschetta. All were delicious! They have a great wine selection with a lot of options on the weekly Happy Hour...4pm to 6pm. And best of all the service...our server, Yamila was terrific and made our experience feel more like we were at a friend's house. We will definitely be back. read more

During our "staycation" we visited the Museum of Discovery and Science and ran into Emily's Garden! At first we were captured by the appealing image of this enchanting restaurant. A beautiful garden and an attractive mobile gelato car. As we went inside, because we couldn't help ourselves, we found a charm and quaint space. It looked perfect for a date night. We got some coffee to go and then came back after we were done for the museum. We got there just in time for happy hour. It was happy indeed! We ordered some red wine, a Bellini, and some delicious calamari and truffle bites. Lola and David were the best servers! They were so helpful and attentive. Lola was lovely and as a bonus point, she spoke Spanish like me :) Lola let us know that since we had visited the museum we got a free treat! I thought that was so nice and special. I can't assure you'll get one for free but I can assure you it is worth trying!! I totally recommend this place.I can't wait to go back and try more things in their menu. read more

This is a really nice restaurant with pretty outdoor seating. It looks like lots of parents come here with their children because it's a pretty big space. The food is good. I had their grilled cheese, and it came with a side salad. I really liked the bread they used for it. For dessert, we tried the nutella focaccia, which was a great dessert if you love nutella. One thing that threw me off, however, was how disorganized the staff were. Everyone was friendly, but we had different servers coming to our table asking if we were ready to order when we already had. Also, one of the servers tried picking up a bee that was buzzing around on the ground with one of the plates. She then placed that same plate she had just scraped across the ground back on the table... Was a little shocked seeing that. Overall though, food is good here, and there's a lot of open space to bring kids here too. read more

I arrived early for Beer, Wine and Spirit Festival in Ft. Lauderdale and decided to take a walk around the neighborhood. I hadn't gone far when I walked by this courtyard, shaded by trees, and just peeked with calm, tranquility, and serenity. Such sights are hard to find, at times, in the busy lifestyle of South Florida. I wasn't hungry or tired, but I felt the need to take a break and enjoy this relaxing vibe. I saw a place that served coffee, sat at a table close to it, and ordered the largest latte they had. And oh my Lord, I got my latte in soup bowl, and loved every sip of. Overall, I didn't taste the food, but the service was superb and the ambiance was peaceful. I wouldn't mind going back there again on Sunday mornings for another bowl of latte. read more

We had a wonderful experience! From the moment we walked in, Yamila provided outstanding customer service. She was welcoming, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our visit. The indoor seating area is clean, comfortable, and has a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes it a great place to enjoy a meal. The menu offers a fantastic variety of options, making it easy to find something for everyone. We ordered the burger, omelette, and pancakes, and every dish was delicious. The burger was flavorful and cooked perfectly, the omelette was fresh and packed with ingredients, and the pancakes were light, fluffy, and absolutely amazing. Overall, the food, service, and atmosphere exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for a great breakfast or lunch. We will definitely be coming back and look forward to trying more items from the menu! read more

We used their baggage service and loved it so much we stayed for lunch! This is a beautiful little spot, perfect for small gatherings, private parties and just a cozy brunch. We shared chips and salsa, focaccia, and a pepperoni pizza. My husband also ordered a mango smoothie and I had an iced coffee from the cute coffee cart .Everything was delicious but it's the friendliness of the owners, waitstaff, and every single person on the premises that makes this place a 5 star. We will visit again when we come back to Florida to be sure. read more

Good restaurant. Paid Parking is street side. There is a pay-for parking lot not too far. It's not covered. We were a little confused on where to enter. On accident we walked into the patio area. I think we were drawn to it because of how beautiful it was decorated. We had to go around other tables and do a whole zigzag to get to the hostess. When we finally got there, the majority of the people were sitting outside. It was a beautiful day. I don't blame them. the inside had only a few people here and there. So, we're able to get pretty much whatever seat we wanted. We chose a large table that was near the window. They didn't have any booster seats available so we just went with the taller of the mix-and-match seats that were at the table we were in. We ended up going there for just a light bites. We shared a spinach quiche and a salmon spread. Everything was delicious. It all came out the kitchen very fresh and presented well. The staff was very kind and the restaurant was clean. We will definitely come back to try a couple more options on the menu.. read more
