About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Lively
Experience modern, coastal Italian cuisine at Fort Lauderdale's newest hot spot, La Fuga. Chef Michael Mayer infuses local South Florida flavors with classic Italian staples to create a fusion of crave-worthy, contemporary dishes.

La Fuga, (Italian for "the escape,") is nestled in the heart of the Kimpton Shorebreak, named in homage to the location’s historic beginnings. The newly renovated Kimpton Shorebreak occupies a unique space in Fort Lauderdale, originally opened as The Escape Hotel in 1949.

La Fuga pays tribute to it's origin story in name and also in atmosphere. Featuring midcentury design, and a laid-back vibe, the indoor-outdoor dining room includes views of the hotel's scenic courtyard and provides access to a rooftop pool overlooking Fort Lauderdale’s intercoastal.

***A SERVICE CHARGE OF 20% WILL BE ADDED TO YOUR FINAL BILL FOR PARTIES OF 5 OR MORE***

    The food was very good. What set this place apart from other dining experiences was the exceptional customer service. It was apparent that every employee was happy to be at work tonight.

    Food was OK but not worth the price. Service was OK and they included gratuity automatically on our party of 5. Not a big deal I just wish they mentioned it when delivering the bill.

    The food and service were incredible! There were 5 of us, and everyone loved what they had. The staff was incredibly polite and professional. The only reason I didn’t give all 5 stars is because outdoor dining surrounds the outdoor pool. I found it awkward that we were fine dining next to people swimming…and I’m sure those in the pool felt like they were on display.
