Steelpan Kitchen & Bar, Fort Lauderdale FL

My wife and I had a great lunch here. Food was amazing, service outstanding - Thank you Patrick! In fact the entire staff went above and beyond to make the meal great. They had a very tasty menu. I had the jerk chicken sandwich and my wife had the parpanelle pasta dish which we both enjoyed. Good selection of beers on draft as well. Highly recommended

Great service by Cory. He is attentive and professional, quick and organized. He definitely deserves a raise. The food is spectacular, no matter what you order. Best service I ever had eating in different places around the world.

Loved the location just across the road from FortLauderdale beach. Great food and service. Our waitress Amy was friendly and helpful. A must visit if you are in the area.

Sat at the outside bar for an early dinner & sunset bubbles. The bartender Indira seemed personable and somewhat attentive. She was busy chasing a bee & telling customers that she had slept until 11: 00 AM. I received two complimentary drink cards from the Sonesta. I ordered a Prosecco then my dinner.
I ordered a second Prosecco right before my dinner arrived. I gave Indira the drink tickets with $10 for a tip. I finished my dinner and requested a third Prosecco and requested my dinner check.
At this time I asked to have separate checks since my company does not reimburse for alcohol.
I received one check with two Prosecco’s and my dinner. I was confused and asked her to separate the check and I would pay for the third Prosecco. Indira tells me I had four Prosecco’s and said she was not going to argue with me. I explained I had two & just ordered a third. She literally was completely confrontational & aggressive. Indira said it was all on camera. After I explained how offensive it was to tell me I had twice the drinks I actually had, I asked her to pull the camera footage, she then said I was not going to be charged for the Prosecco’s. I paid for the food and left the full (third) Prosecco. I went to management of the Sonesta and they were apologetic but took no action to correct the situation.

I highly recommend this place, the bartender Andy was amazing, super nice guy and very accurate with his suggestions

I was excited to try this after reading many positive reviews. However, despite the food being delicious, the customer service was poor. I had to wait 10 minutes just to be acknowledged by the waitress (young black lady with long ponytail) and she didn’t refill my water or bring paper napkins as requested (I went ahead and asked someone else to bring it to me and refill my water) and I had to wait over THIRTY minutes for my food. And she could of apologized for the wait but she didn’t and she didn’t even check on me during that thirty minute wait.

Absolutely delicious. If you come definitely try the avocado hummus and tropical pancakes! #chefsdeal

The restaurant did not know the difference between vegan or vegetarian or regular food. Even though it was marked on the menu, what was vegan items? They still added butter and cheese to the vegan items and the vegetarian items had eggs in it. They clearly do not know what it means to be vegan or vegetarian.

Amazing food and service! I can't stress this enough The service was great, Andy was the man! The old fashioned was delicious and so was the jerk lobster quesadilla! A great vibe indoor as well as outdoor seating! Later we had a dessert with some fudge and it came with a big glass of ice cream!

So glad we made it a point to grab brunch here. Between Adrian the manager and Justin our server we were so incredibly well taken care of, it was delightful. We ordered the lobster and crab eggs benedict and I wish all eggs benedict was that good! The flavors and textures were perfection, I would absolutely recommend!

Good restaurant to spend a pleasant time, offers a wide variety of Del Mar products and delicious meats without passing up the cocktails, they are first class with good service and a beautiful view of the beach

Went here for the first time, with some friends. We really like the location, and our waiter was very nice and attentive. But, my wife's meal was disappointing. She ordered the blackened Mahi sandwich. It came without the charred corn caper remoulade, and the onions were not caramelized, just Chopped. And the roll was soggy, and the sweet potato fries were cold. We didn't tell our waiter about it at the time because we were enjoying our company and good conversation, until the end of our meal. We were the last table in there, at 9 pm, and someone that works there decided to turn the music up so loud We could not talk to each other. Clearly this was meant to let us know that they were about to close. We got up a few minutes later and as we were leaving, we asked the hostess what time they closed. She said 10 pm, we looked at our watches and it was only 915 pm. Not cool for a high end restaurant where we spent a good deal of money, for them to so bluntly send a message that they wanted us to leave, 45 minutes before closing.

My 5 ratings say it all! Excellent service, staff and food! Thank you all so much and we are looking forward to visiting again ASAP.

Very disappointing visit. Server was not all aware of menu or how to bring meal out to table. He be out our apps out with my wife’s entree and when we were done brought my entree out? Just very poor service all around. The table of 4 behind us ordered off the dinner menu but we were told we couldn’t because they were a “very large party”? The tacos they tried to serve me appeared as if someone had regurgitated on taco shells.

The valet guys were great and friendly.

Great place for a relaxing dinner and drinks. The mahi sandwich and shrimp ceviche were delicious. Our server Amy provided excellent service so we went to visit her the next night too
