    This restaurant is AMAZING!!! We had the Ceviche Trio as an appetizer, the seafood (fish and Shrimp) was very fresh and tasteful and the vegetables and fruits were delicious. Great presentation and flavors and so plentiful! For our main course we had the Lobster Thermidor. Made and cooked to perfection! We are lobster thermidor connoisseurs, and this dish was the top of the top. The owner and her family were attentive, friendly and their service was impeccable. Do not miss out on this new hidden gem. We will be returning many times, for sure!

    Went on Valentine's Day, so there was a limited menu. Main course (paella and garlic shrimp) were good but not exceptional. Appetizer (grilled octopus) was overcooked and tough - beware: tiny whole octopuses served here. Atmosphere needs a lot of work: bright overhead lighting, bare tables without tablecloths, basic chairs, fake candles, wires hanging down the wall from behind TV's, etc. Prices too high for mediocre food and service.

    One of our favorite restaurants now. Nerea is a great experience, they are so kind, accommodating and friendly. Their food is always great and I recommend the Snapper. Thanks for the beautiful night. 😎

    A mother and son team who are doing home style but innovative seafood dishes with an emphasis on ceviches and other Central American flavors. Everything we ate was delicious-it is a very welcome addition to the Ft Lauderdale food scene. In addition to being creative and delicious, the portions are ample and a great value. I suggested that they should increase their prices so go soon before that happens!

    Fantastic food and super friendly service. Family owned and operated and it shows. Not your typical restaurant. It’s got a beautiful Latin edge and the seafood is wonderful.
