Restaurants near Southland Shopping Center

Always a pleasure! Authentic, top notch, freshly made Italian food. The pizza’s are as authentic as it gets, the pasta dishes are to die for, especially the bolognese, and the steak was cooked to perfection. If you want the real thing, dine at Louie Bossi’s! You will be glad you did!

Great last minute dinner with a friend for my birthday . We sat outside . Good service . We each had a drink and dinner .

The caption(server) and food runner can be more attentive at the table and I feel like we was rushed out of the restaurant

It-s a very nice place We had two starters, fried calamari and mussels with french fries, and we shared a scottish salmon. Everything was excellent. The wine list with somehow expensive wines. And the noise was very energetic. Very good service,

Our only disappointment with the restaurant was not having visited it sooner. Living in the neighborhood, we bypassed it many times before venturing out on a Monday night. To our amazement, the food, the ambiance and service were beyond expectations. Our server, Thomas, went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. His recommendation of a variation of our usual unfiltered sake was right on. Walking us through the menu, we selected the tuna tower, the Korean barbecue with rice, the grilled octopus and the crispy duck entre. All were excellent but the octopus and the duck were particularly noteworthy. Having worked in Turkey for many years, we can appreciate the correct way to tenderize and char grill octopus. Here, it was done to perfection. Likewise, the duck was crispy on the outside yet still moist on the inside after being sliced and quartered. The outside seating was not overcrowded like many similar venues, and the volume of the music did not preclude us from having strained conversations. While pricey by some Fort Lauderdale standards, it was well worth. Lastly, we were pleased that are open table reservation was promptly honored notwithstanding a busy restaurant.
