    Crispy Truffle Brussels Sprouts and Truffle Mushroom Flatbread
    Michelle M.

    Stopped in on a Tuesday night for some dinner. The restaurant is in a corner of a quiet plaza so there was plenty of parking available. Service was very polite and attentive from start to end. We were informed the restaurant is in the middle of changing the menu and that some things were not available. Alternatives were recommended in their place. We ordered the Crispy Truffle Brussels Sprouts which were good and flavorful, although the "truffle" aspect was lacking. We also ordered the mushroom flatbread after reading some good reviews about it - it was good as well. Finally, we ordered the Asian salad with grilled chicken - it was okay, a pretty basic salad. Overall, an average restaurant.

    I haven't been to this place before this was my first time I know the shopping center indoor outdoor seating. The staff was extremely helpful with the waitress, the bus boy and anybody else that worked there couldn't have been more pleasant. We had two scoops of tuna fish they were good. I am with the two scoops of tuna and some lettuce and tomato and a two slices of bread we also had the flatbread mushroom no to my taste I don't like all the cheeses that were on there, but that's me. Maybe other people do. It was a pleasant enough place to stop and have a quick lunch. Easy parking.

    Dinner here tonight to celebrate my Dad's 90th birthday, along with my bonus mom, Mrs. K. and two of my Dad's best friends (who will read this and should know that they're awesome people!). The best option for a reservation was at 5:00 which worked out okay as we're early diners and as it turned out, the place didn't start to fill up until around 6:45 when we were done with our meal. A lovely menu with lots of great options for all, Mrs. K. went with the Rainbow Trout. A nice thin piece cooked perfectly and served with roasted potatoes and vegetables. She said it was excellent and delicious. I chose the Sesame Noodle Bowl with Shrimp which was a very decent portion of perfectly al dente noodles in a light sauce with six big shrimp. And yes, the heads and tails were removed because who wants to use their hands to pull the tails when you're having a fancy dinner? Service was friendly and attentive. Mrs. K's Arnold Palmer was mixed perfectly (I had a taste) and for dessert, we split a piece of carrot cake that was light and fluffy and a perfect finish. All told, a great meal and a lovely restaurant. I would love to return. [Round number review 23700 overall - 134 of 2025 - 1921 in Florida]

    Jax Bistro and Bar is very good! Came at 6:15 on a Saturday without a reservation and the hostess sat us within 10 minutes outside. It was very chilly inside so glad we got to sit outside. All entrees come with either soup or salad and are around ~$30. The portions are generous and we all loved our food. I had a huge piece of trout that was cooked to perfection. Flavorful, juicy and crispy. The potatoes and veggies were buttery and seasoned well. My mom's salmon was also very good, super thick and moist. Had a very char grill flavorful though that I thought was over powering. I saw other tables receive bread but we never got any. Staff are very friendly and seem to have fun doing their job. I would definitely come back again. And I highly recommend this place, make a reservation if you can!

    Happy Hour is the best around. Generous portions on happy hour or regular menu. I love a great Rubin and I found the best anywhere in south Florida. I would always order the classic made with corned beef but the pastrami version is by far the most delicious I have ever had. It's called the Rachel. The ribs fall off the bone. Portions are generous and no one goes hungry. Plenty for lunch tomorrow so please don't take my seat but come and check it out.

    O k , we saw the good reviews and decided to come here while in the area. I should have known when I looked at the menu. I have a theory that when a menu has a bunch of different items that don't really have a theme The food is not going to be good and again I should have known. They had an eight dollar happy hour menu and it had everything from tacos to mussels, sliders, french onion soup to asian food. Too many different options for my liking. But we give it a chance and decided to order a little bit of everything. To drink I started with a cosmopolitan and my party ordered a Lychee martini, Lemon drop martini. The drinks were eight dollars As well, which is a great price for drinks nowadays. But there were too sweet and the balance wasn't right. Tasted like cheap liquor, i'm sorry to say. When my french onions soup arrived I knew something Was off just by looking at it. I did not give that uh presence of melted cheese over hot steaming soup, it was just ok. The mussels kind of grossed me out and the crostini bread I got was hard as a rock. The Flatbread was the best thing and my daughter liked her salmon but was not thrilled. Aside From the food, the waitress kept on disappearing and would take long to come back. She was really nice to us and wanted to know how we felt about the food. I told her I was confused with the menu. Is this an Asian, Italian, Mexican, french or American restaurant because there were so many weird options mixed together and none were executed properly. We left wondering why they had such good ratings and I think it's because of the demographic of people in the area are older with blander taste buds.

    Excellent service from Sisco Excellent food from the kitchen…read more Excellent drinks from the bar. What more to say? The greeting from our server set the tone and standard for the evening. The lobster appetizer was phenomenal. The chicken oysters, I personally don't see the hype there but the potato served with them is both the crispiest and the softest potato I've ever eaten. The short rib entree with mole sauce was as tender and flavorful as can be. The local jerk swordfish was cooked perfectly and everything on that plate together created wonderful bites. Cornbread dessert was my choice, I love cornbread and that hit the mark with the blueberry compote and ice cream. One nitpick, and this is absolutely a nitpick. The string lights that hang down the wall to the tables are filthy. So dirty they looked like twine rope. Now that didn't change my experience or make me question the cleanliness of the kitchen at all. That food was perfect. And I wouldn't lower my rating .1 because of it I would go back to driftwood more frequently if my schedule fit their hours better, this place is top notch. Make your reso and enjoy We had 4 cocktails, 2 apps, 2 entrees, 1 dessert. Shared everything. Bill with gratuity was about $270. It was worth every penny.

We never felt rushed and had plenty of time to look over the menu before ordering. We started with the Steak Tartare, served with beer-battered smoked onion petals, truffle, egg yolk, and manchego. It was excellent and one of the highlights of the meal. We also tried the Za'atar Roasted Local Vegetables with spicy greens, feta tzatziki, lime pickles, and pepitas. It was good, but it wasn't my favorite dish. For our entrées, one person ordered the Rigatoni Bolognese with pork and beef ragu, housemade raw milk ricotta, and Parmigiano-Reggiano. It was rich, comforting, and absolutely delicious. We also ordered the Jerk Local Swordfish from Fort Lauderdale with braised Swiss chard, local radish escovitch, and jackfruit miso beurre blanc. While the swordfish itself was cooked well, I wasn't a fan of the jerk seasoning. The flounder, however, was outstanding and probably my favorite entrée. To drink, I had the Les Fumées Blanches Orange Sauvignon Blanc, which I really enjoyed. Someone else had an Old Fashioned. For dessert, we shared the Affogato with mascarpone ice cream, dark chocolate, and espresso, and it was a perfect ending to the meal. The service was attentive without being overbearing, and we appreciated being able to enjoy our meal at a relaxed pace. It is on the pricey side, but that's fairly typical for a farm-to-table restaurant using quality ingredients. There's a small parking lot behind the restaurant, and we were lucky enough to grab a spot. Overall, it's a fun place for a date night or a nice dinner with family. I'd definitely recommend giving it a try. Or if you want, they have a great bar and you can hang out there and have a bite.

    My best friend and I visited Nicholson Muir last Friday evening for dinner to celebrate my upcoming…read more50th birthday. She's a regular but this was my initial visit. Wow! Erica was our server and she is lovely, both professional and warm. She's highly knowledgeable and provided a great introduction regarding the menu as well as Chef Muir's Argentine and Italian specialities. My friend and I enjoyed H20 and this is a venue that blesses the table with their own water carafe. I'm a huge fan! We placed our orders which wasn't an easy task given the variety of scrumptious options. The two of us enjoyed catching up while waiting for our meals. During this time, we were served an Amuse-bouche. It was a wrap featuring but not limited to asparagus, burrata, and pesto. This had a very clean taste. I enjoyed it but one bite was sufficient. I wasn't left desiring more. Fast forward to our generous sized starter salads. She enjoyed the Caesar and I opted for the deconstructed wedge but with sherry vinaigrette. This salad is not the typical wedge and highly enjoyable. I prefer the way Muir plates it rather than the cumbersome stacked style. Not to mention, the combination of ingredients brings it to another level. For entrées, my bestie ordered one of her go to dishes, the bronzino. I was indecisive and caught between a seared halibut and a slow fired prime angus steak. In the end, I veered in a completely different direction. The bucatini with braised oxtail, wild mushrooms, and pecorino was the winner. This proved to be an excellent choice. All breads and pastas are made in-house so this was a major selling point. We also shared sides of asparagus and creamed spinach but opted to go light on the sauce. The creamed spinach was the best I've eaten in my life and definitely left me desiring more. Unfortunately, I didn't take notice of the bread service until after the meal but I highly recommend ordering if you're a bread junkie like me. Due to the fact we were full from our delicious dinner, we didn't order dessert but it was a challenge saying no to the bread pudding. It sounded divine but taking a dessert paired with ice cream to go is never a wise choice nor as enjoyable as savoring it in the restaurant. We received a set of 4 mini desserts with the check. These consisted of 2 brownie bites and 2 delicious citrus madeleine cakes. #notonebadbite was eaten throughout the night! The prices are more than I'd typically spend on dinner, but the artistry, customer service, and high quality of the Michelin recognized cuisine warrants the price tags. This is a restaurant I would return to and I highly recommend dining here. While we didn't take advantage, they're currently featuring a prix fixe 3- course taste of summer menu. Finally, hospitality here is an important part of the culture. Nothing here is rushed so I suggest not dining here if you are pressed for time or don't enjoy a fine dining experience. In summary, this was a fantastic meal and pleasurable dining experience!

The room in back has a small bar and two tables. Plus a service area and the unisex bathroom. Reservations are a must. We used open table. We came early and luckily our table was ready. Our server, Erica, was a gem. Warm and welcoming. And professional. Didn't miss a trick. She explained the menu to us. There were no specials that evening. I'd original thought I would order the branzino -- which she said was good -- but as they specialize in meats, I ordered steak. We were given an amuse bouche first. Avocado and tomato on a mini taco. Too cute. I started with a Caesar salad. I like anchovies and there were several on top. The salad had a nice garlicky dressing and cubes of sourdough bread croutons. My husband had seared foie gras with figs to start. The appetizer listed on the menu is actually pate -- as Erica explained -- which we didn't realize -- but she said if my husband preferred, they could do an actual piece of foie gras. Yes, please. It's one of his favorites. He said it was spectacular. For our entrees, we both order the small filet mignon. He ordered medium rare and I ordered medium. We like Pittsburgh charred. For a side (they are big enough to share), we got the creamed spinach. Both our steaks were perfectly cooked. We had been given steak knives, but each steak was amazingly tender. And delicious. The spinach was good. It needed just a touch of salt. We ate every bite of both items. Pre-dessert, they give an amuse dessert (!). A small plate of two mini lemon Madeline's and two small round chocolate brownie like cake. For dessert, we shared a slice of flourless chocolate cake. It came with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. The slice looked meager at first, but the chocolate is so rich and dense and fudgy that I couldn't eat it all in one sitting. I brought a small piece of it home for later when I knew I would appreciate it more. We are already trying to figure out an event or celebration that we can use as an excuse to return here. Talk about a memorable meal? We will think of this superb restaurant for all the rest of our days.

The combination of two chimi's (#17 on the combo menu) is a great deal since it's only $2 more than a single chimi. And I took one home for a second meal. My wife had the Super Chicken Burrito, which has the rice and beans inside the burrito rather than on the side. She liked the entree but was a bit disappointed by the minimal amount of burrito sauce & melted cheese on top even though the menu said the burrito was "smothered" with these items. Overall, we had nice meals in a pleasant atmosphere.
