    We arrived and were greeted. We were given a table that was ok. Got really bad when 2 parties of 14 were placed right near us. Our waiter was also waiting on the big table Our mahi mahi was dry.

    We were visiting my son in Ft Lauderdale. We had our dog with us and were able to sit on the patio. The food and service was excellent. Generous portions and was able to take food home. This was our second time visiting Padrino’s. We will be back again on our next visit.

    We had a wonderful meal at Padrino's. The combination appetizer platter was excellent. Our server was very efficient. All entrees were tasty, but we especially enjoyed the churrasco steak!
