For me it was a construction worker at work. It's cash only and only serves beer and wine. They do have porn playing on the TV here so if you're easily offended this is not the place for you. Definitely some interesting people here.

I haven't been to this restaurant location in 30 years. What got us out of the house last night was…read morethe fact that Lenora Jaye was singing with the band that was performing. I'm glad we went. Grumpy's is a casual place with a big bar, two dining areas and stage. We loved our food. I had the tuna poke appetizer and a grouper Reuben sandwich. Excellent! My wife had a chicken sandwich and side Caesar salad which received her approval (which ain't easy). The band was wonderful to listen to as we ate in the front dining area. Grumpy's seems to have something going on almost every night. Open Mike night on Wednesdays hosted by my friend Peggy Silvestri. Some kind of poker night. Other musical entertainment. Very fun. They also have Grumpy hour drink specials until 6:00 pm, which is probably more happy than grumpy, but I love the name. We already plan to go back again soon. Lenora is a world class talent (literally) who is doing her part to ignite the local economy.

I visited again for the anniversary party and was shocked how many people were there! It was great to see and the energy was off the charts. They had an anniversary drink special which was nice as well as a ton of pop up bars and electric music from a dj. It felt like an EDM concert but free to attend which I was incredible. The beat was so good that it made everyone dance throughout the boat. I have to say that they definitely know how to run a party. I'm not sure if every Saturday night is that busy or if it was due to the anniversary party but I will have to visit again soon to see. The entire marina village was decorated so nicely and had people throughout so it felt alive. I am so glad this addition in Fort Lauderdale is getting the love it deserves so it can still stay lively and be recommended to all. Can't wait to visit again soon.

We chose Boatyard in Fort Lauderdale to celebrate my cousin's graduation, and what a choice she…read moremade! From start to finish, this place delivered on every level. We opted to sit outside, since it is waterfront and even though it was a hot summer day, it was surprisingly manageable since our covered table made all the difference while we enjoyed the stunning waterfront views. We kicked things off with cocktails, and some wine and the Sun Kissed Cocktail was an excellent choice. Not only was it delicious and refreshing, but the presentation was absolutely stunning . a real rose embedded inside an ice cube. It was almost too beautiful to drink... almost. For appetizers, we went with the Tropical Ceviche and the Tuna Tacos, and both were incredible. Everything tasted incredibly fresh, and I loved the mango touch that both dishes shared as it added the perfect tropical sweetness. Then came the entrees, we shared the Shoyu Glazed Sea Bass served with a rice pilaf, edamame purée, bok choy, and shiitake mushrooms, this fish was literally melt-in-your-mouth perfection. We also shared the Lobster Diavolo Pasta which was equally impressive and packed with generous chunks of lobster throughout the pasta, plus a whole small lobster to crack into. And then there were the side of Brussels Sprouts ... honestly, I never thought I'd be raving about a side dish, but here we are. Served shredded rather than whole, and tossed in the most incredible sauce, these were hands down some of the best Brussels sprouts I have ever had in my life. A must-order. Boatyard exceeded every expectation. The food, the atmosphere, the presentation .. all top tier. My cousin picked a winner, and we'll absolutely be back!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

It rained a bit and even though it…read morestopped they closed the patio :( We sat in the back room which had a lot of windows though so it was still a nice view of the sunset and water. Our server (Daniel? Can't remember unfortunately) was great - he took photos of us when we asked, using our phone and our instax Polaroid which was so sweet, even pulled a sharpie out of his pocket so i could write the place and date on them. i love the way the staff work together as a team, one person might take your order, someone else delivers the food/checks in on you, etc. - we never had to wait long when we needed something. I loved the artichoke appetizer - unique way of serving them and the cream sauce was delicious. I ordered the full snapper it was so good, perfectly golden crispy on the outside and tender meat on the inside. I would have loved the option to pair it with something besides rice but the dill rice itself was really good. Mostly the sides are à la carte. The bolognese was also delicious, as was the swordfish. The bread is also sweet and delicious, used to be free, now it's $8 for a tiny loaf. Overpriced for some bread. The full snapper was $59, most entrees are 40-50. I guess you also pay for the setting and view. Good experience overall, this was my second time at boatyard and I'm sure I'll be back again.

I was excited to see they had Neapolitan pizza - my absolute favorite. When done right, I can legitimately eat it everyday. It was also a Wednesday and they have "Weiner Wednesday" - all beef hot dogs with various toppings. We ordered the Margherita pizza, with a side of prosciutto and extra basil, a char and cup pepperoni pizza and two hot dogs - one regular and one cheese and beef. I also ordered two flights and tried the majority of the lighter beers and IPAs. I liked all the beers except for the vanilla sundae IPA...that was an interesting concept but a bit too sweet for me. The Pilsner was my favorite - super crisps and delicious. The staff were super nice and attentive and the decor is fun with a lot of string lights. The pizza was delicious- I am so picky about pizza and it was so good. I wasn't expecting a brewery to have legit Neapolitan pizza but they did. The hot dogs were tasty took on a sesame hot dog but which I thought was a nice touch. The only thing I wish they'd done differently was toast the hot dog bun. It got a bit soggy while I was eating due to the toppings. This is a popular brewery but it still felt really chill. Bathrooms were clean and kept up. Honestly would be here all the time if I lived in this area. Very highly recommend!
