What People Are Saying About Bimini Boatyard Bar & Grill

In Short – Bimini Boatyard caters to those who live the good life, with a light and airy feeling that recalls the Caribbean. The grill cooks up California cuisine with an island twist. The Bimini bread, oatmeal and molasses yeast with honey inside, is popular enough to attract crowds on its own. The pasta dish and salads are creative. Do it island-style with the chef's cut prime rib, 14 ounces of juicy beef. –

Pass on this one!
by billg72340
We visited during the Ft Lauderdale Yacht Show. Great location and nicely themed upscale casual atmosphere. We ordered Grilled Mahi Mahi and a Porterhouse steak, The fish was dry and overcooked and the steak was Pork Tenderloin. Waiter claimed he misunderstood order but had asked how to cook the steak. Second round of beers were served warm and rather than replacing them waiter offered to put them on ice for a while. The manager apologized and replaced the Mahi Mahi with Swordfish and reordered the steak.
The steak was extremely tough and lacked any flavor. The Swordfish was very good and cooked just right. The waiter developed an attitude and removed the steak and warm beers from the bill. The restaurant looks great but lacks everywhere else.
- Pros: Good swordfish
- Cons: Terrible service.

Great Seafood with a Caribbean slant
by CaptaintheDog
We were told by relatives here in F/L to go see the place. Great location on the river and great food.
We all loved it. The menu was kool. The Seafood all stylized in a Caribbean nature, was some of the best we had the whole week we were here.
The dining room is large. Enough room to fit a small army. The view of the yachts outside made for a great backdrop for dining.
The patio was too hot, so we went inside for dinner. They need canopies outside or something.
Really good overall.
- Pros: To little time for dinner
- Cons: Patio is hot in the Summertime

This is the place to go.....
by Besandbill
We were on vacation in Fort Lauderdale in March. The concereige at our hotel this is the place to go for a great Caribbean food experience.
He was right. the menu was very innovative and extremely decorative.
We came back for lunch the next day and found the room full. The lunch business was better than the dinner business the night before. The crowd was mostly local business people. You could tell because people were getting up from their tables and visiting others on other tables. Any placer that is this busy for lunch and dinner must be a great restaurant.
We loved both times we were there.
- Pros: Everything
- Cons: Not enough time to try the whole menu
