FL's Bar & Lounge

😠 Walked in tonight a little after 11 p.m. with my finace (6'3 you can't miss him) hoping to get some drinks and unwind. We sat and waited to be addressed, even a simple I'll be right with you. The bar back at least said "I'm sorry, I'm just the bar back". The bartender proceeded to ignore us for the...

Palm Room
Bar
😠 I went with a group of friends on Tuesday night during Christmas on Las Olas. We usually have great experiences here, but that was just not the case that night. We went to order drinks and made eye contact with a bartender that passed over us and ignored my group for a good chunk of time. She was in...

👍👍 Unforgettable, incomparable to anything you have tasted before. Whatever you thought sushi was before entering here, you ought to prepare yourself for an experience that bests even the most acclaimed sushi restaurants in LA. Deeply underestimated for its quality of fish and presentation. Go here if...

😠 Recently bought a condo nearby, and stopped in for the first time while looking for a neighborhood bar. Took all of 5 minutes for a 60 year-old regular to drop the N word. Will forever tell people to stay away.

RKB Blind Tiger Experience
Sushi restaurant
👍👍 Sushi doesn't get better than this in Florida. We just came back from a trip in Japan and this has been the only nigiri to scratch the itch since. The sushi chefs behind the counter are meticulous and the service was phenomenal. We had the nigiri plate, lobster and salmon miso aburi rolls. We ended...

Buccaneer Lounge & Package
Cocktail bar
😠 Expensive drinks, rude bartenders, no air conditioning. I do not recommend this place AT ALL. They also run an illegal gambling operation with their slot machine. Finally, Saturday nights Conner allows drug deals in the open.
