    I usually eat here once or twice, whenever I stay at The Red Carpet Inn. The food is usually ok. I ordered to go about 9:40 p.m. last night. (8-14-21) The welcome wasn’t very welcoming. One server was rather rude. Eventually a young African American woman took my order- she was pleasant. The chicken wings were awfully BIG and looked barely baked vs fried. I was almost afraid to eat them. They were much smaller the last time I had them/ more appealing to the eye. I hope they were really chicken wings.🤦🏾‍♀️ I will not order them ever again! I went back today ( 8-15-21)-had the same server ( Starr B). She has a pleasant personality! I tried something different today. It was ok🤷🏽‍♀️ Nothing to recommend. However, the service was great. Thanks Starr B!

    Food is good...average. Drink menu is average. Service is slow. Patio was nice. TVs and fans and plenty of seating. They do have live entertainment, although you have to sit on the patio because it is super loud inside. Servers were very pleasant.

    Service was wonderful. Live band was too loud. The ipa was great. Fish and chips were good big pieces of fish. Fish Tacos were good too. Would I go back ya.

    This place is popular! Live band, food to order, eat in or take out. Met a friendly staffer their who indulged me in conversation about the Marina 84 establishment. They have Happy Hour 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM for those who care to indulge. Motor cycle club night friendly! I think the cost to dine their is reasonable, I took out dinner for two and spent $50 bucks, plus I left a gratitude for my server. You can either sit outside under the cover or on the inside to say and drink. Though I do think the food was heavy on the salt for me, so let your server know to tell the cook to go lite on the salt. There music sound system speakers are audible, and big screen TV's are in place. My first time ever... so you can check Marina 84 Fort Lauderdale out too, for your own experience. I give em a 4 star 🌟 🌟 🌟🌟.

    Staying at a nearby hotel on a work trip, heavy-rain evening, I was looking to find some dinner close enough to the hotel to avoid the massive traffic jams in the area. Marina 84 Sports Bar & Grill came up in Google Maps. Being only three minutes away from the hotel, it seemed like a perfect match, and it was. I was greeted by the lovely bartender (Crystal) who made a perfect Manhattan. I chose the French Onion soup and Caesar Salad with grilled chicken, for dinner. Both were delicious! Both dishes tasted far better than what I expected out of bar food. The place is nice, with a relaxing, casual atmosphere. I know it’s a sports bar, but the club music (tss tum tss tum tss tum tss tum tss tum) was not my favorite accompaniment for dinner, but I think I tuned it out, eventually. I would definitely return to Marina 84 and highly recommend it. 🙌🏼

    It's right down stairs from the hotel, convenient, good food and drinks. Looks like it was recently remodeled, really nice place. The burgers and the pretzel hit the spot after a long day of travelling.

    Good food and service. It is a sports bar so it is loud. We lucked out with dropping in on a “Bike Night”.

  • 4/5 Sarah R. 8 months ago on Google
    We were in the area and found this place on Google. Burgers were good. It was Sunday afternoon but not many patrons even though it's attached to a hotel. I'm assuming it gets busier at night since it has a pretty well stocked bar. Christina was our server. She was friendly and attentive. Would definitely go back if we're in the area again.

    I was just at the hotel in the back and was hanging and before I leaving I went up the bar and get a drink because it was till happy hour. Only thing, the drinks are still freaking $8.99 and their cheapest freaking appetizer was the same price. The Service wasn’t bad overall but over priced and not just mot my crowd (I’m 27. & everyone there was in their 50+ the food was two sliders with pulled pork. I didn’t eat up eating one but the left other one to show. The meat was actually burnt was I’ve never experienced before but the flavor was good.

    Random place we stopped by for lunch and it was actually really good. Customer service was outstanding despite being short staffed. Chili was tasty and the coconut shrimp was good. I would go back to this restaurant.

  • 4/5 Christopher F. 2 years ago on Google
    Pricey, but a great vibe. Came in to be seated when the Chiefs and Bills were in the last 2 minutes battling in their divisional game. Was helped right away. Mackenzie was our waitress. Was able to order w/in 5 minutes and served our food w/in 10 minutes after ordering. The Bloody Mary I ordered was good, and so was the fish and chips my ordered. Something didn't sit right with the fish tacos I ordered though didn't taste as I expected. Now I know fish tacos are made different depending where in the USA a person is. Prices are high! Service though, was great and worth bragging about. If you get Mackenzie, know the experience will be positive.

    Went to see the wonderful Local band. They were great. Service was slow but a was good. At one point we dipped outside for a smoke. They literally cleared our table, threw away our leftovers and sat another party at our table! We had not paid our Bill yet?! To the attribution of the manager, they replaced our discarded leftovers and after repeatedly asking we got out table back to see the band. Great place but service needs a bit of work.

    Very cool bike night on Wednesdays. Food was good but a bit on the pricey side. Service was very good and attentive. DJ was very good but played too little of the songs.

    We had an amazing time listening to a live band and eating really good tasty food. The staff and manager D wayne was so nice. I can't wait to go back.

  • 1/5 Fnord W. 2 months ago on Google • 35 reviews New
    Sign at door says please wait to be seated. After 10 minutes that turns out to be a mistake. Its self seating. Ok fair enough. 15 minutes later and no one has even registered that we were there. There were only 3 servers so we gave them a little time, but when they started casually chatting with each other around the hostess stand and still hadn't even said hello to our table we just left.

  • 1/5 Sophia S. 3 months ago on Google • 27 reviews New
    Definitely under staffed. Bartender asked for help, and the GM did nothing to help her. The manager was useless as well. He stayed in his little corner near the stage with the GM. And we waited a long time for our food, and the food was not delicious. I would definitely pass on eating there! Our server tried! She warned us that the food would take a long time. We appreciated her honesty!

  • 2/5 Sharod boss M. 7 months ago on Google
    This locations atmosphere is great on Wednesday nights which is bike night but when making a purchase with a debit card, the highest gratuity is already added to your purchase. They don’t give you the option to want to choose your tip. Plus someone working there is re-printing card numbers my debit card was charged at a different location the next day when I was at work. And this was the last location that I have used my card to purchase drinks.

    This was my first time coming to the restaurant but second time having the food, and it was great! The service was amazing especially from our waitress Melissa M! She was so respectful and had great manners and gave us great costumer service! If you go there I definitely recommend asking for her! Definitely will be coming back.

    I’ve only been to this place twice…both times I was staying at the Rodeway Inn overnight prior to leaving for a cruise. I love the convenience of this pub, it has great pub-style food, the servers are fun, the happy hour is appreciated, and the live entertainment is an added bonus. My most recent stay had the band East End Rose playing all our favourites from the 60s, 70s, and 80s.

  • 5/5 Dieudonne Momo O. 3 years ago on Google
    Wow 🤩 so happy the food is delicious... I recommend this place to anyone who’s looking to eat fresh and delicious food ..they have so much variety to choose from it took me a good 10 minutes still I couldn’t decide what to choose... I’ll be coming here for the rest of my vacation ... Waitress Omar was nice and helpful.. THANKS TO THE WHOLE CREW YOU ARE THE BEST KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

    Was just visiting, looks like it was bike night. Got to see some beautiful bikes. DJ, great atmosphere 👌 👏

  • 5/5 somberballad 4 months ago on Google
    Stopped here for a quick bite before our mid afternoon PAT. Place nicely decorated for holidays. Appears to be only one server working but she did an excellent job. We had wings, if you like sauce order them "wet", we didn't and the sauce was pretty boring but the wings themselves were excellent crispy outside, good amount of meat. Exactly what we needed. Good quality for a "hotel restaurant".

  • 5/5 Jean T. 2 years ago on Google
    We are from Virginia and we discovered this gem near our hotel. Great friendly service, really nice people and the food was awesome!! The steak and the calamari appetizer were both cooked to perfection! The baked potato was even outstanding. Prices are reasonable and we left completely satisfied!!

  • 5/5 Pro Driver T. 6 months ago on Google
    Was here for 4 days. It’s a bit pricey but… be there Happy Hour(s) 4-7pm. $4 draft 😎😎 All the food I had was great and I highly recommend the Fish and Chips! All the Bartender girls were amazing too! Great experience and I’ll be back!

  • 2/5 Dee N. 4 months ago on Google
    Asked for Lime with our iced tea got lemon. Asked waitress for limes and we had to go to bar to get it. Our meals got delivered before appetizer. Waitress was upset when we asked her to reheat dinner and substitute new hot fries. Another guest had to go in search of eating utensils. Food was decent. Waitress never came over to remove any dishes from table. We sat with tons of dishes for a l-o-n-g time until she decided to clear. Won't be back.

  • 5/5 Marion E. M. 4 months ago on Google
    Everything you expect from a great sports bar. Our server Christina was such a fantastic ambassador for this place and couldn't do enough for us. After a long say of travel, she was a joy to meet. Food and drinks were recommended to us by her and all we could do was send compliments to the kitchen. Just lovely.

  • 5/5 Carrie K. 4 months ago on Google
    Where has this place been all my life? First time at Marina 84 and we enjoyed ourselves so much! Our server Christina G made suggestions for drinks and food that we normally wouldn’t have chosen, but glad we took her advice because the rum bucket and Korean BBQ ribs were amazing! Loved the atmosphere and will definitely be returning frequently. Thanks Christina and Marina 84 for making our holiday weekend one to remember!

  • 5/5 Linda T. 2 years ago on Google
    They have seating available indoors or outdoors. They have the best homemade veggie burger. Great happy hour drink specials 4-7pm. Thur night kareoke and great classic rock live bands every Fri and Sat night. It is a great family restaurant with a 2 huge bar . A must visit!

  • 5/5 Bob L. 2 years ago on Google
    Great. I mean great wings Grilled and well done. Probably the largest wings I have had. ( should have taken a pic) ordered them dry with med and hot sauce on the side. People really attentive fast service with a 😃

  • 5/5 Liané de K. 7 months ago on Google
    Christina G has been the best waitress ever. Best service and personality by far. She will always make sure you are taken care of and provide the best service EVER!! Whenever you come please ask for Christina G!! You will not be disappointed!! SA rugby is a big theme here. Please watch the schedule on facebook and request Christan G to be your server during game time. She'll make sure you are looked after. Thank you for your vibes and awesome service xx

  • 4/5 Amy M. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool atmosphere with outside eating. I had the grilled chicken sandwich and loved it. Some craft beers on tap. We went on a Monday and it wasn't busy.

  • 2/5 julie b. 2 years ago on Google
    Food is decent, not great but the prices are shockingly outrageous. Charged $7.50 a bottle for Corona Lite, Sunday football and wings are $25 for 18 PLUS charged another $5 for asking for them grilled ...then they tack on another 18 percent gratuity, which I wouldn't object to except I didn't know so I double tipped. Called manager, got a refund, but still...bill was $200 for 4 people, one of whom only had a diet coke.

  • 4/5 cheri f. 8 months ago on Google
    As a South African away from home, this was a really awesome vibe to watch a Springboks game. They also have awesome SA food & drinks. The only negative is that the sound was deafening loud, and it can get super busy during such games.

  • 5/5 Casey P. 8 months ago on Google
    Excellent fried egg burger. Will definitely stop by again next time I'm in the area. Egg was runny, as it should be. Bacon was crispy, as it should be. The burger was cooked medium rare, as I asked for. Top knotch service. Much appreciated and delicious.

  • 5/5 S. K. H. 2 years ago on Google
    Dope spot! I loved the chicken sliders and beer. Very people-friendly staff as well.

  • 4/5 G S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great patio. Foods a little pricey but reasonable one you see the portions. Awesome place to chill with your friends/family, soak in some sun and have a couple cold ones. My only gripe was the service was slightly lacking. They weren’t busy at all (Sunday afternoon) but we had issues with getting the server to take orders. Could have just been an off day though.

  • 4/5 Macdalene S. 10 months ago on Google
    This was a nice spot, great band, the atmosphere was great. The food was good as well I had the hangover burger with onion rings 10/10 and fried Calamari 7.5 wasn’t bad but the service was horrible our server didn’t acknowledge us not even a bit she didn’t even tell us her name. We had to call over another server to take our order smh if we didn’t do that we wouldn’t have gotten our order taken at all. It wasn’t fair we had to sit and wait not even an apology or anything idk if it had to do with the color of our skin it seem like she didn’t want anything to do with us but over all the food and atmosphere was good.

  • 5/5 Ebony J. 10 months ago on Google
    Very Nice establishment & Christina G the waitress was awesome & the atmosphere!! They have a stage & TVs everywhere so it’s Great for performances & watching sports , The food was tasty Drinks were great not watered down!! Highly recommend

  • 4/5 Jon M. 2 years ago on Google
    Good food in a fun atmosphere. We stopped here for dinner after using the Freedom Boat Club in Ft Lauderdale. Burger and fajitas were both good. The fact that this restaurant is attached to a Choice Hotel was nice. We would definitely eat here again.

  • 1/5 James B. 2 years ago on Google
    Went in and waited 15 minutes to get menus and drink order. An additional 10 minutes to get drinks. (There was only 2 of us) we placed our order of salad and 6pc wings waited 45 minutes before asking for the check and leaving. Up until that point not once did the waitress come and check on us. I really would have not wanted to be there if it was busy.

  • 4/5 Odie A. 2 years ago on Google
    Wait staff was a bit confused 😕 but the food was amazing. Some of the best chicken wings 😋 I ever had. The bacon 🥓 mac'n cheese 🧀 was to die for, seriously 😳! Gotta check them out!

  • 5/5 Lauren B. 2 years ago on Google
    We were on a trip that had a bad start and we got into town pretty late. We came to marina 84 for a quick bite and a few drinks to chill. Everyone was nice and clearly having a good time. We ordered the calamari and shrimp quesadilla. So the calamari was good but the quesadillas were amazing. And they came with fries which is my weakness. If you get a chance go!!

  • 4/5 Mr. Dario A. Charlton S. 1 year ago on Google
    Great food. I went on Wednesday night which is their night to host bike night. Nice crowd good music. Definitely a place to have some good clean fun.

  • 5/5 Jennifer L. 1 year ago on Google
    My friend and I came to Marina84 for the first time and had a lovely time. I definitely recommend. The food was amazing and the service was phenomenal! We sat at the bar and had Anna taking care of us. She was very sweet and attentive to our needs. We were there talking for hours! Very happy to have found this place!
