I'm visiting the Foodie & Cocktail BFF and we're looking for a post dinner place in Fr. Lauderdale…read morewhere we can catch up over some cocktails on a weekday night. Sidecar Speakeasy was the play... The speakeasy entrance was hidden in a hallway you can walk right by without even noticing. I dig it. Once inside, it's dark. Most of the light is coming from the light showcasing the bottles in the bar. The seating is a little tight as they're trying to maximize space for such a small area. We visited here twice during my visit: We sat at a table and a bar. You have the perfect amount of space for your party, but you're pretty close to the next table or bar seat. No claustrophobic vibes though. All the mixologists were great during both visits. One visit, we ordered their signature cocktails from the menu. When we sat at the bar, we had the mixologist surprise with a cocktail off the menu. He just asked what kind of liquor vibe we wanted, and he took it from there. He was super creative with every cocktail which made for a great time. They stayed upon until midnight one one visit and until 1 am on the other one. Both my visits were on a weekday. The sidecar speakeasy is easily my favorite bar in Fort Lauderdale and I have a feeling I'll be back. Enjoy!

It was a pretty good crowd, for a Friday. Outside a couple people were in line for the conveniently located food truck that parks there. Darn good food. I walked in and spotted my friends near the back. Even though it was pretty busy, The always pleasant bartenders had my drink over ASAP. It was made with some kick. It was, always, good vibes. There was a large din of chatter and laugheter from all corners of the bar. I met a few new people; it's a great spot to mingle. I did order a dealers choice, ie., bartender decides wat he wants to make. He made a great rum concoction. Always a joint with good vibes, they even had a live 2 piece band that night. Always solid, and for sure a top spot to hit after work.

We were looking for a late-night meal and came across this restaurant tucked away in a quaint area…read moreof Fort Lauderdale. Parking was conveniently located right in front of the restaurant, making it an easy stop. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted and invited to sit wherever we liked. We chose a table near the window and immediately appreciated the intimate and charming atmosphere. The restaurant also features a bar and televisions, creating a relaxed and welcoming vibe. Our waitress was pleasant, attentive, and made us feel right at home, which always enhances the dining experience. Although we weren't extremely hungry, the menu had so many appealing options that we decided to sample a few items. We started with the Caribbean Tea shots, which were unique, refreshing, and surprisingly enjoyable. For drinks, we ordered a Malbec and a Peanut Butter Old Fashioned. Our first entrée was the Churrasco Frites, featuring marinated skirt steak topped with chimichurri and served with twister fries. The steak was cooked perfectly, tender and flavorful, but those fries were the true star of the dish. Still wanting more, we ordered the Garlic Parmesan Twice Cooked Wings. They were nicely prepared and satisfying, though I would have enjoyed a stronger garlic flavor. Not quite finished, we moved on to the Oaxaca Burger, an 8 ounce burger stacked with onion rings, bacon jam, house BBQ sauce, and Oaxaca cheese. This was one of the best burgers I've ever had, and possibly the best. The bun was toasted yet soft, the burger was seasoned perfectly, and it was cooked to a juicy medium temperature. Every bite was packed with flavor. Overall, everything we ordered was excellent, and the service and atmosphere made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning.

My significant other and I each had two drinks and shared a dessert, and our bill came to about $55. The bartenders were friendly and made some really good drinks. If you're looking for something tropical, I highly recommend the Sun haven. The atmosphere is welcoming, and they played some really good music. I didn't get a chance to try the food, but several items on the menu caught my eye and looked delicious. I'll definitely be back to give the food a try.

The lighting is dim and the sofas are beautiful. There is a red piano on the other side that just looks so regal. We sat at the bar and were quickly taken care of. They have a great variety of cocktails to choose from and some bites as well if you're feeling hungry. I went with the red eye espresso martini and it was amazing. It tasted like chocolate! The combo of Licor 43 and espresso is delish! Highly recommend. It was a Sunday night so there wasn't too many people, but the bartender did tell us they play live music on Fridays and Saturdays and that is when there is a bigger crowd. We will be going back soon!

Advertising a pre packaged mini cheese cake as a fruit tart and charging $18 for it is egregious a lot of fancy words for something that was not tasty.

Sat in front of the Whiskey Neat windows on the patio and ordered a slab of ribs. The bar is lit up with red lighting, a red brick back drop and some cool artwork against the warm wood panel walls.

The ambiance is not even close to the sultry sexy vibe at their Sunrise location, although the open courtyard here with the coconut trees make up for the shortcomings. The gender neutral bathroom had cool brick wrap around walls and withered black tile flooring but needed some TLC, obviously no bathroom checklists enforced here.

The sun was intense, and even though there were some shaded areas with fans, it was still pretty hot and uncomfortable at times. Our waitress was fantastic, I wish I remembered her name. She was a short Colombian woman who gave great recommendations and made the experience much better. We ordered the berry drinks, tacos, and tuna, and everything tasted great. The only downside for me was the music. It seemed like house music, which isn't really my style, so I didn't love that part of the atmosphere. Still, that's a minor issue. I'd definitely consider coming back when the weather is cooler, and hopefully with a different music vibe. Overall, I'd recommend checking this place out.

They used pressed ginger so it gave a nice kick to the drink, I also asked the bartender if he could make it a bit spicy and he was able to add hellfire bitters tincture and this was absolutely delicious and really made the drink, highly recommend if you are into spicy drinks!
