The food here is so amazing!! Great atmosphere! It gets crowded so get their early or enjoy a delicious mojito at the bar while you wait. The Scollops are the best thing in the menu they're a MUST!!

Diva Licious

Everything is excellent! The Moroccan trio is listed as a salad but perfect as an appetizer . Portions are generous. Outstanding ocean view upstairs and reasonably priced! Definitely recommend!

... actually , everything was very good , even excellent. we had the med. salad and Moroccan kababs followed by tiramisu . really very good... when matched with a bottle of rose ... ????.

Jova House, now home of Casablanca Café, was built in 1927. The two-story masonry dwelling, was the first home constructed on Fort Lauderdale Beach and is the oldest remaining structure .

New Times Broward Palm Beach

A classy respite from the noise and hubbub at Beach Place, Casablanca Cafe sits on A1A across from Fort Lauderdale Beach in a quasi Mediterranean-style structure .

Stefani

Very romantic restaurant ! Went only for dessert . The Mascarpone Cheesecake is very delicious and very filling. Can be split by two people.

New Times Broward Palm Beach

Housed in a quaint Mediterranean-style building, the restaurant provides outdoor seating with views of the beach and an indoor space with dim lighting and cozy seating to set the mood.

I really enjoyed this restaurant . It's directly across from the beach and the casual ambiance is so inviting. I usually get the Cobb Salad and boy is it delish! Give Casablanca Cafe a try!

Had dinner on the patio . Baked Brie app is amazing. Scallops were yummy! Live music after 6 pm. High chairs available for kids.

The menu is something-for-everyone-style, with the likes of fish and chips , Cajun alligator and chicken quesadillas - See more at: http://flmag.com/casablanca-caf%C3%A9#sthash.hK3rCZAC.dpuf

Great atmosphere; love the piano-bar on Friday & Saturday nights! Unfortunately, the food is not good at lunch , but somewhat better at night (though overpriced). So the best is to go for drinks!

Jennifer Palus

Really yummy food. The pear fiocchi appetizer was scrumptious! The chocolate mousse was light and dark chocolate-y

Jeff B

Grab the lobster roll for lunch . Fresh, moist & juicy with a side salad . Plus you can't beat the ocean view !

Tim vas Hasselt

Eat here after 5pm. The food is finally good, way better than in the most American restaurants . The ambiance is superb especially downstairs. There you can eat at a piano table. RECOMMENDED!

Could make a meal of the phyllo wrapped brie alone but then I'd miss out on the eggplant ravioli.Can't stay away? Pledge your vote for Best Restaurant Broward 2012. Text BRO22 to 61721by May 14 Read more

Called Ft Lauderdale's “most romantic” restaurant , but if that is what you are looking for you might skip the large Friday and Saturday night crowds.

Nikki

The view spectacular. We arrived early @ 11:25am But was attend to immediately , asked us if we wanted water. Yes. His Cologne was nice but a bit much for a server. It was not over powering at all
