Best Seasonal Restaurants in Dorsey-Riverbend

My experience at shooters waterfront is always amazing. My waitress Tiana and the manager Rob went above and beyond to accommodate our table. This is one of my favorite restaurants. The food is absolutely superb. The staff is amazing and they will treat you like family. I highly recommend this restaurant for any and every occasion!

Mastro's was all around amazing 11/10 experience. Parking: Valet was $8 nice young man! Upon entering the ambience is great. The staff was very friendly every staff we came in contact with while walking to our table greeted us. Our server provided exceptional service, he was attentive and friendly and offered great recommendations. His service was the cherry on top an excellent night. My boyfriend enjoyed his birthday! His name on the menu was a great touch. We sat outside the view was great. The food was delicious and the drinks were outstanding The bread basket 10/10 Appetizers: Fried Calamari 11/10 they were fired just right loved the sauce. Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes 10/10 Main: Jerked Spiced Grouper 11/10 perfection Herb Roasted Branzino 10/10 Lobster Mashed Potatoes 9/10 Mac & Cheese 11/10 rich and creamy Creamed Spinach 10/10 Cheesecake 10/10

As a sales manager, I spend a lot of time with clients enjoying dinner and conversation. Most of the time the food is good, but not this time. It was spectacular. The yellowfin sashimi, while a touch spicy, was a great start that I would certainly recommend. The came the Lobster tacos. These were by far, the best appetizer I or anyone in my group have ever tasted. We all ordered steaks and one, a filet, arrived a little overcooked, our server had it replaced in just a short minutes and the replacement was picture perfect and delicious. This review would not be complete without a huge thank you to Valeria and her excellent recommendations and complete service throughout our dinner. I am looking forward to returning when I’m back in Ft Lauderdale.

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!

Great date spot. Food is always first rate, and the service is fantastic. It can be a little loud depending on the sitting and music, but it is a fun and lively atmosphere. There is a private seating area for before or after the service, so get a drink and take advantage of it.
