Great spot on the New River. The food and service was fantastic. Perfect place for a cocktail and a bite to eat.
I loved my salmon and Greek salad! Went for lunch, sat outside, great view on the river, server Jade was great, can’t wait to go back!
Perfect spot to watch the boats on the New River and enjoy speciality drinks and lite bites with friends. The hummus, octopus and paella are outstanding! This is a great addition to the Riverside!
This is exactly what Fort Lauderdale needed! The restaurant is well thought out, an outstanding location on the river with amazing views. Every food item we had, and we ordered a lot, was delicious and perfectly presented. The staff was very personal and polite and the atmosphere warm and welcoming. We will definitely be back.
Great place! They did an awesome job designing it and the food was good! Try the Hummus and crab cakes!
Thanks for bringing us a new LOCAL place to enjoy. Great place! Yummy food and drinks. �
The Venice of America just got another Waterfront First Class Restaurant! Sumptuous food and genuine service wrapped in a Mediterranean Twist.
It’s great to enjoy bites and sips along the New River. A very good offering of tapas with craft cocktails and solid wine list.
Great atmosphere and energy. Love the perfect portion sizes for sharing.
Excellent service. We were a large party and they did their best to accommodate us. They do not accept reservations. Nice food, TAPAS style only.
Tatiana at the bar always provides the best service and is so friendly! Food is fantastic!
Awesome place. Just a perfect setting with great food😊
Fantastic venue right on the waterway in the heart of Las Olas, food was exceptional yet reasonably priced with entree’s priced on average at around $20. We went for the Sunday Brunch and enjoyed watching the boats go by as we enjoyed the excellent food and drinks. Service was very good and it was a great atmosphere too.
We go to this place regularly. The food is always great and so are the views, especially if you get a table by the river. Most dishes are suitable for sharing and to the “family style” meal. This time I had the Potato Soup and the Greek Salad. Both were wonderful…!
12 months later and still great. Happy Hour at the bar. Delicious pork tacos and a super burger. $3.50 draughts - awesome.
We ate poolside so didn't get the full experience but what we did get was really good and very well priced. $7 local drafts, burger $11. Service was excellent, especially given the bar was busy with World Cup fans. The only complaint is that they package up poolside orders like takeout, which is wasteful. Wish they used some reusable plastic plates, cutlery, etc for poolside orders (eliminate single use plastics).
My husband and I came here on date night. I ordered a amaretto sour, it was delicious!!! My husband ordered a type of rum cocktail. He liked it, he gave it a 4/5. We didn’t order an entree we just ordered a couple of appetizers, that filled us up. We loved the atmosphere, very mellow and relaxing outside by the river.
The Boathouse Restaurant at the Riverside Resort is simply on point with all menu items in Fort Lauderdale . Our server Pablo was amazing and very attentive and professional to our needs. (Follow my live reviews on Tik Tok @hiddentresauresinthecity😄
I went there for lunch. Food was okay, we had the tomato bisque and the smoked fish dip with chips. Few concerns with my food is being that the fish dip was chilled I was expecting the chips to kinda be warm just for balance and the drink menu was kinda limited. Overall great location where I could have seen the water taxi and that weekend they had some aircraft show so it was a splendid experience.
Oh our waitress was amazing. She was consistent in ensuring our lunch was going well.
Tried to make a reservation online but it said they were booked, luckily I decided to take my chances with walking in and was able to get seated quickly. The service was fantastic, our server was attentive, quick and made great commentary and conversation. We started with the gator tacos and conch fritters. The tacos tasted like chicken but that’s what I’ve always heard from people who tried gator. The fritters were phenomenal and came with a fantastic arugula salad. For my main I had the grouper - it was wonderfully cooked. Finally for dessert we got the key lime pie and it one of the better ones I’ve had! Happy we made the trip.
Dec 3, 2023,Charlie who works there was very helpful she answered all our questions and is very personable. We sat outside by the bar area, however we did notice gasoline smell while sitting at our table that was overlooking with boats in the water. This restaurant is walking to Stop #1 on the Water Taxi, only a minute walk that is why we chose this restaurant. Also there are a few Parking Areas near the restaurant, but you need to upload the PAYBYPHONE Parking App in order to pay for the metered spot. We got there for Happy Hour drinks, lucky us. I ordered the Burger (medium raw) that arrived just as I ordered it and tasted good. But DO NOT get the in-house Potato Chips because there are BORING with no taste, ordered the fries. Also ordered a Salad which was good, and my friends seemed happy with their meals. Plus the Menu Prices seemed fair. NOTE, If you are taking the Water Taxi tell your Server and show them your ticket and you should get 10 Percent OFF your bill. All and all, not a bad place to eat if you want to be by Stop #1 on the Water Taxi.
Great place, food is better than most. Prices seems reasonable. Over all fun place to have a drink or eat some good food.
Cruising by on the new river and thankfully, there was a boat slip empty, so we headed in. even though it was very busy, we ended up finding seats at the bar.The bar tender was extremely helpful and friendly, she made delicious drinks and also offered some recommendations from the appetizer menu.
We ordered a few of these recommendations and were not disappointed!
This lovely restaurant offered great views of the new river and an amazing vibe.
We were pleasantly surprised and will definitely be going back.
"The four of us experienced a beautiful dinner right next to the water!"
We were seated on the dock of the intercoastal waterway. The staff was so pleasant and welcoming. Our waiter made suggestions and the food was incredible and was fitting of the scenery going down the canal. Watching the sun go down on a beautiful Florida evening was also a bonus. I would highly recommend and can't wait to come back.
We chose to exit off of the water taxi to grab lunch at the Boathouse by the Riverside . Boy was it a great choice ! We started off with a refreshing appetizer of guacamole 🥑 with chips . I had one of the best burgers I have ever had !! A juicy , black , angus burger with spicy cheddar cheese sauce … yummm. My fiancé enjoyed the maui fish tacos 🌮 . It was so relaxing watching the boats and beautiful yachts go by . We meandered down Las Olas Blvd after to check out the shops . Just beautiful! #boathouseatheriverside
The salmon with the quinoa was delicious! My friend had the swordfish and loved his food too. Love the ambience by the river.
Very classy place on the water. All the tables are outside under cover with a great view. There are a lot of great selections on the menu and the prices are very reasonable for the area. The service was top notch and the food was delicious and well prepared.
My wife and I had a wonderful time at this restaurant. They had a great happy hour deal with 50% off until 6.30pm and fairly priced appetizers. We had a table right by the water so atmosphere couldn’t be better. I highly recommend the salmon and the bang bang shrimp. We would definitely go back!
was lucky we got our seat straight after we walked in. The price of the food are unbeatable. Probably is the cheapest you can find in downtown but good quality. Burger was good. Steak was good; especially the side order fries sprinkles with truffles salt. Environment was great. Definitely is a place can spend 7 days a week here :)
Overall very happy with our dinner here. Besides the food (which is reasonably priced) one of the best things it has going for itself — It’s literally next to the river. Pretty cool if you like to see boats and yachts pass by especially at night.
You can actually talk with people at your table. As they designed the layout very nicely 👍🏾
Our server Brian, very attentive, informative and overall good attitude. Will come back.
Boathouse is such a great location that sits on the water. The views of boats passing by made me happy! Usually Happy Hour is only limited to sitting at the bar but we were able to sit on the patio which was awesome! Food was colorful & tasty. The bartender was able to make fruity cocktails I requested so thank you very much! Check out my awesome pics, I definitely captured the beauty of Florida! 🌴
