This was our first visit back to the Boatyard since its remodel and it did not disappoint. There was a mix up in our reservation and our table was given away but the manager, Sam, quickly took care of it and treated us extremely well. We had an excellent server who described the dishes very well and made great suggestions. Drinks were delicious. We look forward to our next dinner there.

Everything was great as usual. Our waitress, Simona was wonderful and Nick, who served us in the past, helped out too. Louie Bossi's is a staple of Fort Lauderdale and should not be missed. Even the basic things are gamechangers. Do not miss their garlic bread served with ricotta and get the meatballs too so you can add a little sauce to the bread & ricotta. Superb!
