Best Seasonal Restaurants in River Oaks

Everything we had was delicious. Started with baked scallops and crab (yes it is hot even though it's under the cold appetizers). Then had wagyu dumplings, which were pan seared and crispy on the outside. The sushi was extremely fresh and very light. Thin coat of rice so you can actually taste the sushi instead of tasting only rice. Can't wait to go back. Smelled delicious aromas of shrimp fried rice at other tables and will definitely try that next time.

My husband and I dine out at least five times a week, and being in the food industry, we’ve explored just about every full-service restaurant in the Fort Lauderdale/Wilton Manors area. Eddie V’s consistently stands out, not just as a great restaurant but as a vibrant dining experience we can’t resist returning to. While the atmosphere is lively—some might call it overly-energetic—it’s all part of the experience. This isn’t the place for quiet conversation, but the buzz adds to the sense of occasion, making every visit feel celebratory. If you want a “quieter” experience, see if you can score a seat in their back dining room. It’s not available for small parties very often, but sometimes it is, and we love it. About the food and service…they’re exceptional. On the rare occasion something fell short, the general manager went above and beyond to make it right, showcasing a level of professionalism we truly admire. Eddie V’s is often seen as a “special occasion” spot, but we think it’s perfect for any night you want to treat yourself. If you go, ask for Aga—she’s warm, personable, and one of the most polished professionals we’ve had the pleasure of being served by. Highly recommended for a high-energy, first-class meal, whether it’s a big night out or just because you deserve something extraordinary.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Moxie and it was an experience worth sharing. From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting ambiance set the tone for the evening. The decor strikes the perfect balance between modern and cozy, with soft lighting and thoughtfully arranged seating that encourages relaxation and conversation. The food was nothing but perfect al the dishes was sharable and each bite was a testament to the chef’s skill and attention to detail. The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the presentation was impressive without being pretentious. The service was another highlight. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable about the menu, and genuinely friendly, making us feel right at home. Whether you’re looking for a spot for a romantic dinner, a celebration, or just a great meal out, Moxie is a fantastic choice. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of their menu!

We've always loved our local Trulucks, even at the old location but last nights meal was exceptional. our server, Matt went above and beyond on many levels, including finding a way to accommodate our granddaughters mac n cheese particulars. :-) that alone set the tone for a wonderful meal. the food was delicious as usual. we had a variety from steaks to different seafoods and everyone was happy with their choices. i do like the option for petit as sometimes a large portion of food is wasted for me and and my petit salmon was the perfect size. it is as noted, an energetic atmosphere. we were in the middle of the room and at times it was a bit loud but there are tables that are the more intimate booths that we remember from the old Trulucks and these will be quieter if that's what you're looking for.

Absolutely amazing exoerience! The service, the atmosphere, the presentation, and the taste, oh the taste..... One can never get tired of it.
