- RRogerFort Lauderdale •1 review5.0Dined on Dec 28, 2024Celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary with a great night of entertainment, food and service. We were expecting dueling piano players but instead entertained with a fantastic singer who sang nonstop for the entire time. His repertoire included oldies that was enjoyed by all and even included our wedding song. Dancing and requests were encouraged and enjoyed by all. Staff was friendly and went out of their way for an enjoyable night. Thank you all! We had a great evening.More infoMickey's Downtown BistroPrice: Moderate• Mediterranean• Lauderdale by the Sea•4.6

Discover Lauderdale by the Sea
Lauderdale by the Sea is a Broward County community on the Atlantic Ocean. While this area is mainly known for fine dining, there are also plenty of budget eats for those looking to grab a quick bite. Most area restaurants serve seafood, of course, but there are also plenty of steakhouses, pizza parlors, delis and diners that offer meal choices to fit any budget. The area’s strong Latino heritage shows in the plentiful authentic Mexican, Cuban, Peruvian and even Brazilian eateries. Lauderdale by the Sea’s snowbirds and transplants have also influenced the local restaurants. It is not uncommon to see a New York-style deli on the beach, or a prix fixe brunch offering bagels with Nova lox and capers.
