Great breakfast! We hit this place twice it was so good the first time. Sat outside first time due to the air conditioning being out of service. They had a portable grill set up and the food did not lack flavor, nor did the service. They were super accommodating and helpful in giving us guidance on best way to get around Fort Lauderdale without a car. Second trip back, air still inoperable, but a portable A/C unit and fans allowed for a cool dining experience on the inside. Excellent spot for a great meal.

Food was great, no complaints! But what was truly the best was the service. Seriously, my family was served by the nicest woman ever. Coming for vacation from Maine, she gave us the best welcome we could ask for. We got her name and it was Ellen! Seeing her work that night was spectacular, looks like she could run that place with her eyes closed. If we ever visit again, we’ll definitely be requesting her. She ROCKS! I hope she gets the recognition she deserves.

I’m honestly surprised Oceans Grille has only 4.4 stars—it deserves more! We had dinner here one night and the food was so good we came back the next day for both breakfast and lunch. For dinner, we had the Mahi fish, scallops, shrimp, and French fries—everything was perfectly cooked and seasoned. Breakfast was just as impressive with homemade biscuits and gravy, scrambled eggs, toast with jam, and the most delicious potatoes. You can tell the food is fresh and made with love & care, not rushed. The flavors were spot on, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Highly recommend this place!

What a lovely place. Just what I needed for dinner mussel dish and grill grouper. Serve with yellow rice and fresh green beans and some onions... Yummy.. everything was delicious that I can't have enough and talk about it. This is an old Bar that been here for over 40 and still providing the quality meals and servers that made you so welcome.

This is probably some of the best service I’ve received! I can’t remember our waitress’s name but she was incredibly attentive. The food was great. A little pricey but what you would expect for a restaurant near the water. You could tell it was fresh and great flavor! Would highly recommend the blackened salmon!

Wasn't sure about this place but my best friend assured us it was great and she was right! The food was delicious (NY pastrami sandwich and shrimp & scampi pasta)! Jennifer our server was absolutely accommodating, professional and friendly! Service was fantastic! I a GM of a tourist bar/restaurant in Key West and I left your establishment wishing I could hire 15 Jennifers!!! We will most certainly be back when we're visiting the Ft Lauderdale area.

Had a great dinner here last night with excellent customer service. Server was amazing. I had the Salmon and it was unbelievable. Atmosphere was great, not too loud, lots of TVs to watch football and sports, will definitely be back.
