   We loved the fix price menu because you really get a feel for the excellent food choices. I did think the music was too loud and not a good choice for the beautiful atmosphere and vibe the interior has.

   Disappointing Experience Despite Great Food I had high expectations for Fortu but left disappointed after my recent visit. I made a 9:15 PM reservation, but upon arriving, we were rushed to order because the kitchen was closing. If you’re going to offer late reservations, customers shouldn’t feel pressured to make hasty decisions, especially at these price points. I also noted in my reservation that it was my partner’s birthday and was told they had a special birthday dessert that’s not on the menu. I was expecting a thoughtful surprise, but instead, the server came to the table asking what dessert we wanted—completely ruining the moment. I ordered the cheesecake, and to my dismay, it didn’t even come with a candle. The entire experience lacked the personal touch I had hoped for, making the celebration feel underwhelming. It seemed like the host never communicated with the server about our special occasion. Additionally, while the food itself was incredible, the execution missed the mark. We ordered the ribeye Wagyu steak, advertised as 14 ounces, but there’s no way the portion we received was that size. We also requested it medium-rare, but it came out medium—normally I wouldn’t mind, but for an $80+ steak, expectations are higher. For a $280 dinner for two, I anticipated a flawless experience, but instead, I left feeling let down. While the food is excellent, the lack of attention to detail and service left a sour taste in my mouth. Not sure I’d return, especially for a special occasion.

   While cold days dont exist too often in FL, claiming your patio is heated was realistically not true. It was pretty cold last night, in the 50s and the “heaters provided no warmth” They only have a few of them outside and they are placed way too high above the table for you to feel it. Not impressed with the patio for a high priced established. The cold ruined the experience.

   Second time here. When we have an amazing dining experience we always worry the next time may not live up to the first experience. In this case it 100% did. It was just as amazing the second time as it was the first. The $75 Prix Fixe was perfect! My wife wanted to lick the cream corn bowl it was so good and I think I could have eaten 10 plates of the Tempura Shrimp.

   Our dining experience at Fortu last night was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we walked in, we were impressed by the ambiance—great lighting, comfortable chairs, and an overall inviting atmosphere that set the perfect tone for the evening. The drinks were excellent, each crafted to perfection, and a wonderful start to our meal. As for the food, it was incredible. We sampled several appetizers, each one bursting with flavor and showcasing the chef’s talent. The entrees were equally impressive—my steak was cooked to absolute perfection, tender, juicy, and full of flavor. My wife had the fried rice and orange chicken, both of which were outstanding. The dessert was the perfect finale to an already remarkable meal. The Ube cheesecake was a standout—it was one of the best cheesecakes I’ve had in a long time, smooth, rich, and with a unique twist. Given the level of excellence in both the food and service, I wouldn’t be surprised if Fortu were nominated for a Michelin star in the near future. We will absolutely be returning to experience this culinary gem again
