    Rendezvous is a wonderful restaurant. I loved sitting outside on the deck for lunch the other day (Jan '26). The weather was cool but on a warmer day, they have large deck umbrellas as well as covered outdoor seating and plenty of inside seating. Parking is also complimentary in their private lot. Service was very good. They have a lunch menu separate from their main menu and they also have happy hour from 12 daily and breakfast starts serving at 9am. From the menu we ordered the fish spread which was very fresh but had a lot of cream cheese to make it a spread. The whole fried fish was cooked and seasoned perfectly The lunch portion of the blackened redfish was also cooked and seasoned perfectly. I think this is the perfect place for a romantic lunch outside to a nice place to take friends who come in from out of town and don't want the hassles of Las Olas or the beaches.

    Decided to go here for "Valentine's Day Lunch", and what a great choice! Service was impeccable and the food was delicious. We had the Lamb Pops, cooked and flavored perfect, then bacon wrapped scallops and my wife had the Hog Snapper. All of it was tremendous! I recommend that everyone try this place out!

    I have wanted to try Rendezvous for so long and i don't know how i didn't go sooner! Our first experience here was excellent! Made a reservation easily on open table for Saturday night. We sat outside on the patio which sits on the water at a marina. They do have indoor seating and indoor/outdoor bar seating! All the food was delicious and they had a HUGE menu plus a whole special menu! I can't wait to try happy hour and go back to try more food items! The service was friendly, however our server was a little slow and did forget several things such as extra sauce we asked for. But overall wonderful experience based on the food and ambience!

    Crab Cakes had tad bit too much filler. Change the recipe to Crab Meat!!

    The music and food are just plain good! Chef Jean prepares the food with love. A group of us dined and have nothing but KUDOS for this establishment. The music is old school which is fantastic. Not that new age garbage. Chris and the team there are amazing. I had the fried whole fish and boy oh boy along with that Bloody Mary!

    We ate dinner outside at Rendezvous! The restaurant is on a marina so we were able to see boats and the water! I ordred an the lobster pops appetizer and grilled shrimp as my meal and my husband ordered the fried red snapper. Our friend's ordered pasta and grilled fish. Their food looked amazing. The server was ok, not spectacular! The outdoor atmosphere was peaceful and somewhat serene!

    Tuna
    Natalie S.

    The have a really big menu, so much to choose from. If you like seafood they have mussels, clams, haddock, Mahi, tuna, crabcakes, shrimp, stone crabs, and more. For meat eaters there is plenty to choose from, lamb, turkey burgers, regular burgers. I ordered the tuna appetizer. The tuna was incredibly fresh and delicious. There were 5 very thin slices of tuna. It comes with a teaspoon size of seaweed salad! Really chintzy on the appetizer, disappointed that they couldn't give you a decent amount of seaweed salad with a $19 appetizer

    This spot is by the marina. Very simple and a little old school. It doesn't look like anything special however the food was. The banger shrimp were so delicious!!! And the half stuffed lobster tail with 2 sides for $23 during lunch was a great deal. The desert is not in house made but ordered from a bakery and was wow soooo good: choose the white chocolate lemon tard it's worth it!!

    Great food and service. We've been here a few times and have never had a bad meal. I like their seafood and have had fish, crab and shrimp dishes perfectly cooked. They often have good nightly specials too. Experienced waitstaff and nice atmosphere outside overlooking the marina. The inside dining room could use an update, but I don't count that against them as they make up for it in other ways.

    Outside seating
    Sheri M.

    A seat next to the marina....led to some fresh seafood, a good cocktail and the best of conversation. We found this via Yelp and enjoyed our time here. Outside fans kept any flies away. The food was flavorful. The service was hospitable. The ambience for a couples dinner on the patio was just right. Two dinners, four drinks $200. A private parking lot right next door.

    We were in Ft Lauderdale just for the night & were looking for seafood & a view! Well this little hidden gem ( because it sits tucked away) was just perfect. Food was fresh & so yummy- drinks on point! Service- friendly & not rushed at all. Our server made several recommendations & checked with the kitchen on several items due to allergies. If we are back in the area we would definitely come back. Sitting dockside & watching people bring their boats to the dock and come enjoy dinner was fun!

    I've been here many times and I forget why I keep coming back. But when I'm here I'm always reminded.... The food is excellent. I'm a fish snob and I've never had over cooked fish here. The view.... Killer, and the staff is young, fun, and knows how to keep the vibe right..... Kayla was the gal who took care of me and she's one great representative for this establishment.

    This is our go to for garlic Dungeness crabs. We have tried the different varieties of crab on the…read moremenu and have always landed (no pun) back on the dungeness for how much meat they yield. Also learned they are highly sustainable. The service is always great and just want to say we adore when our server Karen is available. Ask for her, you will be thrilled. That's not say the others aren't also spectacular at anticipating your needs and menu knowledge, but she has a sparkling personality and doesn't miss a beat. It also says a lot when someone has worked there for years and years. It says without words that employee retention is a reflection of the company itself (management and owners). I definitely highly recommend this environment for those who enjoy a lively place as there is a fun and unique way in which they honor birthdays (a great spot for these celebrations), every guest is given a wooden mallet (hammer) to break the crab shells, however, when they announce a birthday wish over the speakers throughout the array of dining room options (one being a large barge on the canal), EVERYONE bangs their mallets on the tables which creates a cacophony of sound! SO much fun, but do not go there if you have a headache or are looking for a low key atmosphere. We adore The Rustic Inn, as it also has a very New England vibe and that happens to be where I'm from. It is consistently great, and it is a little spendy, but it's CRAB, so don't expect it to be cheap. If you want a delicious meal with top tier hospitality, in a down home environment, The Rustic Inn is the best around and conveniently located right off I-95

    Oh how I wanted to love this place after hearing about it for years and finally making it there but…read moreit was not to be. We started things off with a fisherman's platter appetizer. It came with a crab ball, two frog legs, gator bites and some peel and eat shrimp in a butter garlic sauce. The shrimp were by far the best part of the platter. For entrees... I had the crab stuffed shrimp which were good but not great. The ratios were off as the shrimp were medium sized at best butterflied with a heaping mound of stuffing. If the shrimp were actually large or jumbo shrimp this ratio would be correct and the flavors would complement each other better. My beautiful date had the skippers platter which came with a strip steak and stuffed shrimp. She had the same opinion about the shrimp and the steak was cooked properly to her liking but it lacked seasoning of any type. I just had a bland beef flavor. Again, not bad, but certainly not what we had expected. Our server, Gemma did a good job taking care of us. There seemed to be a lot of folks there eating crab so perhaps they are more crab centric and that may be what shines there and what they developed their reputation on.

We made a reservation on a Friday night for 8:30pm - unnecessary as there was plenty of seating at this time anyways. The hostess was very friendly and seated us right away. The server was also very polite and took the time to tell us about what sets Florida Room apart from other restaurants out there. They don't use any seed oils and instead cook with beef tallow - yum! Ambiance-wise, the restaurant was more upscale than I expected for a place that's tied to The Fort (pickleball courts). Inside was cozy and intimate, perfect for a date night or night out with friends, not so much for families with small children. We tried the watermelon and feta appetizer along with two plates from the specials menu: shrimp and grits and a pistachio-crusted chicken. The watermelon and feta was good but I wouldn't necessarily get it again. The two entrees were so so good. The chicken dish was particularly divine and had an amazing sauce with cute tiny delicious mushrooms.

We went to lunch on a nice warm Friday afternoon and wanted the whole ambience experience. We sat outside at the bar at a high top table which usually isn't my favorite, but it was nice.

The service was excellent, first we thought we would sit inside because it was too hot, but then we said let's go for it and we moved ourselves outside so the hostess and the waitress were extremely helpful. This is more than just an eating establishment. It's an experience sitting among the most expensive and fabulous yachts in the world. The view is lovely and also the people are lovely to look at as well. The menu has a nice variety and if you like cocktails or beer or wine, there's a good selection. I had the shrimp tacos and my friend had the fish tacos. Our other friends had the Power Bowl with chicken and they all enjoyed everything.

While I understand wanting to preserve the intended flavor, customer health and safety should come first--especially when dealing with allergies. I find it concerning that no effort was made to accommodate a reasonable request or even ask about the severity of the allergy. In today's restaurant industry, flexibility and customer care are important. Unfortunately, I found the service to be very unaccommodating, and given the high prices, I expected much better.

    Great brunch by the water with a fun tiki island vibe!…read more We came here for Father's Day to enjoy brunch by the water, and it was such a great experience! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly by the host. We were also with someone who uses a wheelchair, and they were very accommodating by seating us on the lower floor, which we really appreciated. The atmosphere has a fun tiki island vibe and, even though it was a hot day, the overall atmosphere was really enjoyable. Now, let's get into the FOOD! We all ordered different dishes, which gave us the perfect excuse to try a little bit of everything. We started with the fried zucchini chips with lemon aioli--so good! The lemon aioli really kicked them up a notch. We also had the banana bread with whipped honey butter, and that butter literally melted in your mouth. Both were fantastic! We also tried the smoked fish dip, which came with fresh vegetables. My husband ordered the oysters. They were a little smaller than the oysters we're used to, but they were still tasty. For our entrees, we all went in different directions. I had the avocado chili salmon, topped with a chili glaze, served with herb rice, grilled broccolini, and sunflower sprouts. This was definitely my favorite dish! Simple, fresh, flavorful, and absolutely delicious. We also had the Carne Asada Steak & Eggs, Grains & Greens, and a side of shrimp. Everything we tried was really good, and there was something for everyone. Our waitress was excellent--she was attentive, friendly, and always checking to make sure we had everything we needed. She even took a selfie with us, which was such a fun personal touch! The prices are very reasonable, and they also offer a Rise & Shine brunch option with unlimited mimosas, Bloody Marys, or rosé for $28, which is a great deal if you're looking to enjoy some drinks with your brunch. And if you want something a little more adventurous, they have some fun cocktail options, including the Tiki Loaded Caesar with double Tito's vodka, Clamato, candied bacon, an oyster, shrimp, pickle, and a spiced rim. Or you can go for a fresh-pressed espresso martini. Overall, we had a wonderful Father's Day brunch. Great food, reasonable prices, a fun atmosphere, and excellent service. I would definitely recommend checking this place out if you're in the Hollywood area! We'll definitely be back!

We ordered the poke nachos, which were delicious as always--the tuna was fresh, and all of the flavors worked really well together. The oysters were also fresh and tasty, and the Real Margarita with Sauza Blue tequila, fresh lime, agave, and a Tajín rim was really good. The scallops weren't really to our liking, but we understand that the kitchen can't get every dish perfect every single time. What really made the experience better was how the manager handled the situation. They were understanding about our concerns and ended up reimbursing us for our dessert, which we really appreciated. The restaurant was a little quiet, and the food took a bit longer than expected, but overall, the good outweighed the negatives. We were grateful that the manager listened to us and helped resolve the issue. Great customer service can really make a difference, and because of how everything was handled, we're moving this experience up to four stars. We would definitely come back and reassess our experience in the future! Thank you, hector as well for being an amazing Bartender/server we were Treated exquisitely. He had the best service and we loved it.
