Love Martini Mondays at Apt 9F. The food never disappoints, the customers are so nice, the owners and staff are beyond friendly, and the vibe is always relaxed.The Hawaiian Chicken Bowl was delicious and paired with a few lemon-drop martini and the chocolate chip cookie for dessert... well need I say more? Thanks to Kirsty and Carol as always for making my day! read more

Had brunch here. The food sounded good, but was executed poorly. Specifically, the mini beef Wellington dish was overcooked and could have been at any mediocre buffet at a corporate event. In retrospect, I don't understand why they make them small as it would be magical to manage to have it come out other than overcooked at that small size. I've eaten here before for a light pre-theater dinner. Bottom line is if you view this is as a charming bar with hors d'ouerves or snacks you'll be happy. If you think you're going to have a meal, you'll be disappointed. read more

This is a great Spot. Made it there for the first time and my wife and I really enjoyed the food, the atmosphere and the staff. I'm pretty sure it was the owner who was helping us. Really enjoyed the conversation we had and we were happy we decided to come here. Everything was great. We had the charcuterie board, jalapeño cornbread muffins, quesadilla and goat cheese and bacon flatbread. Everything was delicious and perfectly cooked. The best part was the bread pudding for dessert one of the best we've had. read more

Really love the vibe in here. Martini Monday is a great deal. $6 martinis. The ladies who were working were so kind. Great place to check out on the drive that you can actually sit and have a conversation and not have to listen to loud music. read more

My husband and I decided to try this place and it was great! The service, drinks, and food were so good! It's such a cute little place with a great vibe. read more

Have visited this place quite a few times and the drinks are always great with nice bartenders. I love the espresso martinis and there quite a few tasty appetizers as well, like the turkey meatballs and flatbreads. It's decorated like a homey coffee shop but it's still loungey at the same time, with some couches or the bar options. Chill spot in comparison to the rest on the drive. read more

Cozy, endearing drinking den located in Wilton Manners. We came for happy hour on Wednesday and I will definitely be back! In addition to their regular happy hour, they offer half off select bottles of wine on Wednesday. The bites were very tasty! We ordered the garlic shrimp, avocado flatbread, jalapeño corn muffins, and Turkey meatballs. Everything was delicious! The meatballs were the only thing I probably wouldn't get again. The servers were very friendly with personality! Our waitress Carol really made the experience! At the end of the night it came up that they were short staffed that night, but we couldn't even tell! That's how good she was! If you have not checked it out, go! read more

Local bar with a very warm atmosphere. Excellent food and drinks. Limited inside seating but a nice outside seating during pleasant weather.

We both really loved this small and cozy place. Located in Wilton Manors, and woman-owned, EVERYONE will feel welcome here. And what the talented chef (also a woman) is able to successfully accomplish in an open kitchen the size of a postage stamp is truly amazing. We came for happy hour so certain drinks were on special, but the limited menu is reasonably priced to begin with. It's self described as a "drinking den" and their full bar and creative cocktails should appeal to any adventurer. We sat at the bar and got an educational view of all the concoctions. There is seating at the bar and some inside tables along the opposite wall. In addition, there are some umbrellaed tables directly outside. Street parking is the closest, if you can find it. We started by sharing their tasty baked Turkey meatballs. There were 5 to the order. They were topped with a green sauce (pesto?) and had nuts inside (pine?). A piece of ciabatta bread came with them. Following that, we shared their rib-eye steak bruschetta. Two pieces of toasted ciabatta bread --each spread with a blue cheese cream cheese -- were topped with mixed greens, tomatoes, cukes, and ample pieces of tender sliced steak. This was yummy. And surprisingly, just those two items were a perfect dinner for us. Their menu is a mix of small plates ("bites") -- about 10/11 different ones -- plus their "build your own" boards with various meats and cheeses, etc. They even have a couple dessert choices. I could easily see spending a couple hours here with friends -- chatting, sipping drinks, and sampling their menu offerings. Or even stopping by for an appetizer and a cocktail before dinner (at home or out). And I'm sure we will return again some time in the future. PS Thank you yelp elite Marqus. As usual, we would not have discovered this place without your intriguing review. read more

We have been coming here for years and it's still as good as my first 5 star review. The lady's who own this place ensure the best service and make everyone feel like they are family. Martini Mondays are fun, but my favorite is half price wine Wednesday. It's a great deal and the tapas are still delicious. There is usually a food special each night so just ask. I have never had a dish here that I did not love. The bacon feta flatbread is a special favorite for me. Whatever you like, this is not a place that disappoints. Friendly atmosphere, great drinks, and fair prices. It doesn't get much better than 9f on Wilton Drive. read more

My friends and I have been to Apt 9f a few times in the past few weeks. Apt 9f has a unique, refreshing vibe; a nice change of pace to other restaurants / bars on Wilton "The Drive." Prior to moving here a few years ago, I would be in NYC multiple times a week and this really reminds me of the small, family operated storefront places in Manhattan and Brooklyn with warm, inviting interiors and sought-after al fresco sidewalk dining and drinking. One of the owners stopped by our curbside table a few times to chat and help out. The staff is accommodating and provided excellent service. We ended up drinking at least 3 bottles of surprisingly good and reasonably priced "house" Italian wine, Santa Marina Pinot Grigio. The slew of craft cocktails change with the season, with the preserves, syrups and bitters made in-house. The small plates are quality dishes. We all had our own favorites. The charcuterie is build-your-own which we liked. I loved the Steak Bruschetta that had rib-eye atop Danish Bleu cream cheese toasted ciabatta. A bit difficult to cut and share but we managed. My friends loved the spicy Shrimp Pil-Pil in olive oil, paprika and red pepper flakes. The Pork Belly Tacos were tasty. The Bacon, Goat Cheese & Caramelized Onion Flatbread was excellent! Apt 9f truly is a neighborhood gem, and a self-described "Drinking Den and Social Eatery." More places like this on The Drive please! read more

Food service drinks ambiance all 5 star! Great for light food that is amazingly prepared in the tiny kitchen! Wine Wednesday is a must!

Very limited menu. Yes I know it's tapas but it's not a lot of options. Service is slow. It was nice to sit outside but only when it's not super hot and sweltering humid heat. Much better places to go read more

What a fun place. The owners are from NYC and that was their apt number in NY! I loved it. so had a nice conversation with Nancy (one of the owners). swe talked about NY and how we missed a lot in FL of NY Things- but at least here it felt like NY! My friend and I sat outside and we ordered chardonnay and rose wines. We then split a charcuterie board of cheeses (manchego, brie and gouda), red pepperderos and prosciutto with toasted ciabatta. It was delicious. So we had a nice relaxing time. I would say the website needs a little more information (I would be nice to see the menu ahead). Also, when we had to get in touch with the restaurant I sent a DM and they responded quickly. I would definitely go back! I love the decor in the place! read more

Carol and her staff made my daughter and family's birthday experience so enjoyable!! From the homemade jalapeño corn muffins to the grilled shrimp salad (dressings are homemade) everything was delicious. The service was so welcoming and even the patrons wished my daughter a happy birthday. It is a small cozy place inside, and the energy was palpable!! We were so grateful that they were able to accommodate our party of 8 with no problem. Everyone was so friendly and gracious; and Carol is an outstanding hostess. read more

Once again Carol Moran has given me a delightful lounge and light dining surprise. This time she miraculously managed to transport the cozy hominess of her Manhattan apartment, Apt. 9f, to The Drive in the former location of Naked Grape. With comfortable in home type furniture surrounding low lounge tables and a burnt yellow colored wall loaded with framed pictures you really do feel like you're in someone's home apartment but with a nice fully stocked bar, signature drinks and menus. Having known Carol to be a self-proclaimed wine snob from her days at Thirteen Restaurant and Bar I was sure I'd find a uniquely superior wine list, and on that count I couldn't have been more delighted with the selections I found. I started with an Italian Costello Banfi Cal Di Sasso Baby Super Tuscan. Being a blend of Sangiovese and a Cabernet Sauvignon I thought it be a little wishy washy, but no. To the contrary it was firm in Italian structure with a near perfect nose and balance. I also tried several other reds from the menu selection of 9 which also proved to be exceptionally good though I would tend to favor the Baby Super Tuscan. Of the selection of the selection of 8 "Specialty Cocktails" offered I had the "Purple Rain" with "Death Door Gin" that really came out to be a true delight to the palate with its Maraschino Liqueur enhancement. And also the Bourbon Berry Lemonade which came loaded with fresh blackberries just slightly bruised for a more distinctive enhancement berry flavor. As far as food Apt.9f is more of a tapas, light foods or snack than it would be a restaurant or bistro, but with its small plates all served in good presentation, fresh and tasty. I had both the "Fresh Burrata & Prosciutto Plate" and the "Lobster Roll" which came stuffed with the sweet claw meat of cold water lobster. Though the roll didn't seem to have the distinctive texture or taste of a traditional New England roll, it was overall delicious. read more

I always enjoy my visits to 9F, which is modeled after the owner's apartment in New York. They have a full bar with a tasty selection of specialty cocktails. I tried the Zest for Life and Lime in the Coconut, which tasted like a melted pina colada. Both were delicious. For food, they have a nice selection of small plates and a create your own charcuterie board. They have cozy seating, as well as bar and outdoor tables available. It often gets pretty crowded and you literally like you are at a party in someone's apartment. The owner treats everyone like family, and the staff is friendly and fun. I definitely recommend a visit during happy hour so you can grab your seat early and enjoy the night. There is metered parking a few steps away, which is welcome when your visit is done. read more

Came here for a Sunday brunch and this place was very busy. Was seated fairly quickly and ordered a peanut butter old fashioned and espresso martini which were so good! Being a smaller place, they can handle the capacity and the drinks come out fairly quickly. Went on to get the chicken wrap which was super fresh and the avocado toast, with egg and salmon. Delicious and the bread was toasted to perfection. Thank you for a great brunch experience! read more

I recently moved to Oakland and decided to check out Apt 9f. Let me tell you it did not disappoint! The place is cozy and cute with both indoor and outdoor seating. The service was great and they have a good HH. I ordered a couple charcuterie plates (small portions IMO) but the jalapeño corn muffins stole the show. My next visit will be for the brunch menu! read more

Only giving them a 2 because of the service. The service and atmosphere are the only reason this place could be rated so highly. The food is horrible! The meatballs are the worst thing I've ever had... Nothing we had was edible! read more

The food was done well and the drinks were spot on. It is not a place to go if you are ravenously hungry - the plates are more snack sized to go with drinks. If that is what you are in the mood for with a relaxing vibe this place is great. Service friendly and very laid back. read more
