Best Restaurants for Foodies in Middle River Terrace

Chima’s in Fort Lauderdale is a great spot if you’re a fan of diverse cuts of meat. While the seafood selection is a bit limited, the generous portions ensure you’ll leave fully satisfied. It’s definitely worth a visit for a hearty and flavorful meal. Our waiter, Víctor, took exceptional care of our group of 8 during a team outing. Despite being new, his attentiveness and professionalism stood out, making the entire dining experience even better. He made sure we had everything we needed throughout the evening, which added a special touch to our meal. Chima’s is a solid choice for a memorable dinner in Fort Lauderdale!

This was our first time dining at this restaurant, Adriana was amazing, her service was friendly, she recommended items in the menu and mentioned some of the specials they were having. The food was outstanding, it arrived at a great pace with the appetizers and main entrees. The drinks were made to perfection by the bar. Highly recommend and will definitely dine again when in town.

The food is absolutely excellent, from the quality and presentation of the fish, to the appetizers, to the main courses. Additionally, the service is top notch. Very attentive, kind, helpful servers who make sure to get all the diners the food the exact way that the individual wants it. Great drink offerings also. Have yet to go for happy hour but it seems really good (only M-Thurs). Cheers to everything about this place.

Excellent food, great vibe and very nice service! Really enjoyed every aspect of the restaurant Steal was delicious, calamari was spicy and tasty and lobster Mac and cheese was phenomenal

Excellent experience from start to finish. Food was on point, service as well the Four Seasons is absolutely beautiful. I have NO complaints just Two ticky-tack drawbacks that might help others. 1) we were seated right by the servers station in the back very close to another table, we asked for something else since we were celebrating a special occasion, but weren’t moved (in a 1/2 empty restaurant) Luckily, the other table wasn’t seated until we got our entrees because not sure I could stand hearing 2 bros talking loudly about their Hamptons summer house plans for much longer. 2) Valet was $24 but no one told us we could validate at the restaurant for $5 off…I mean at $24 to park for 2 hours, not like $5 is going to save the world, but would have been nice to know that before we walked out to valet and then had to walk back to validate. Valet asked were we were going, we said restaurant, they could have easily told us to validate the parking. None of these would stop us from coming back…we’ll just be sure to park on the street and be more knowledgable about where to sit. I felt the cost was worth the meal, that being said, we didn’t fill up on $25 cocktails and $30 glasses of wine. I could easily see how the liquor bill could easily supersede the food bill. But will be back for the food experience for sure!
