Restaurants near Fort Lauderdale Apartment

We enjoyed a fabulous meal celebrating two birthdays. The food was excellent. Everything was very fresh and delicious, and we were served generous portions with plenty to take home. They carefully accommodated all of our dietary needs as 3 of the 14 of us are Gluten free. The steak and chicken dishes were terrific. And our awesome servers, Keith and Tommy could not have been more attentive to our requests. We brought in our own birthday cakes which they kindly sliced and served for us without hesitation. Superior service, excellent food and an overall wonderful night at Rainbow Palace.

Brunch today (11/24) was perfect. Our server, Alex, provided excellent service. The food at the buffet was hot and fresh. The drinks we ordered were good and the music was also good and not too loud. We enjoyed watching all the boats go by. We will definitely return.

The ambiance and everything about this restaurant is top tier. I also got the pleasure to meet Shaq! Our waiter was super amazing. I will definitely travel the 1 hour and a half again.

It was a a cool evening to dine outdoors but with the portable gas fire torches, my wife and I were comfortable. We were only looking for a light bite so my wife ordered the edamame and a California roll. I ordered Miso soup and a sampling of nigiri. The edamame was fresh with a light snap when biting and perfectly, lightly salted. The Miso broth was hot and hearty. Perfect on this cool Florida night. She told me she loved her California roll and I thought my nigiri was delicious. Dock fresh with brilliant colors. I chose the tuna, yellowtail and golden eye snapper. I'd order the same thing again in a heartbeat, but there were so many other items I'd like to try next time. She ordered a glass of champaign (by the glass) and didn't particularly care for it. Too dry she said. I chose a drink that is their spin on an old fashioned. (I forget the name) but it had ginger in it and it was delicious. Small side note, the brand of still water they serve is Mountain Valley. You don't see this brand very often but it was fantastic. So refreshing and crisp mouthfeel. I LOVE Acgua Panna and keep it at home but I may switch it up and try this brand of spring water if I ever see it in a store or online. We had a great experience at Takato and look forward to our next time here.

This restaurant is one of my all time favorites. We are regulars here. The food is like being in Italy and the service is outstanding. They have a great vibe with live music and great cocktails and wine list.
