    Naked Farmer is in Sunrise and offers some fresh food for dine in or on the go…read more The first time I had Naked Farmer was in Tampa and was so excited when I learned that they had a location in South FL to try. We came after a busy morning at the beach and I was craving something fresh. After a quick search on Yelp, I found Naked Farmer and was reminded that we were super close to it. It's fairly close to Sawgrass Mills mall and is in a plaza with a good amount of parking. Although the outside seems small, the space inside is pretty long and has a good amount of seating. The servining is "chipotle-style" where you order your food and customize it how you want it and pay at the register at the end. I shared a bowl with my partner and we got half rice and half greens, some toppings, and the chicken thigh. This was a good amount for us to share and it was delicious! We also tried their date cake and my partner was a huge fan of it. I loved how clean the inside was and how nice all the staff was. They had water cups for self service and it was cold even without ice, which I loved! When you're done with your food, you put them away in a cabinet which is constantly cleaned out by staff which helped give the space a clean aesthetic. Very thought through and intentional on their behalf. Loved Naked Farmer and would definitely get again if I'm in the area or craving something fresh!

    I must first say I love going to places that gives the feel of real food with real ingredient, so I…read moredecided to come here. The staff is very pleasant and patient. And the place is brightly lit and seems to be really clean. On this day, I decided to try the roasted chicken. I believe it was supposed to have some type of rosemary on it. I'm not sure what's going on these days but it seems like most places are cooking chicken when it's still frozen. It just had that cooked from frozen texture to it. It was tough and bland. I tried the macaroni and cheese, which I did like and the carrots, which I also did like, both solid sides something I would get again. I was able to get the kale Caesar with my plate, which I thought was excellent. It had the right amount of dressing on it. I do plan on returning to try the salmon. Hopefully I have a better experience with that.

    The Food We didn't hold back on the menu, and honestly,…read moreeverything hit the mark: * Breakfast Pizza: This was a standout. Perfectly thin, crispy crust topped with fluffy scrambled eggs, sausage, and fresh veggies. It's a great twist on a classic and very shareable. * Chicken and Waffles: The waffles were thick and airy with just the right amount of powdered sugar and butter. The chicken was crispy and seasoned well--definitely a soul-food win. * French Toast: If you have a sweet tooth, get this. It came topped with fresh berries and paired perfectly with their syrup. * Sides & Sips: The grits were creamy, and the cocktails I knocked about 6 old fashioned and the lemon drops were refreshing and well-made. The Vibe The outdoor seating area has a great atmosphere--lively but relaxed. It's an ideal spot for a "Sunday Funday" or a break from shopping. The service was attentive, and the food came out hot and fresh

    Extremely disappointing experience. I made a reservation through OpenTable, arrived on time, and…read morewas then told by the hostess that my reservation had been canceled because they no longer had seating available. How does that make any sense? If there was no availability, why was I able to book a reservation in the first place? What made the situation even worse was how it was handled. The staff was rude, dismissive, and offered no meaningful explanation or attempt to make things right. It came across as completely disorganized and unprofessional. I was actually looking forward to eating here because I had a good experience at Matchbox in Washington, DC. Unfortunately, this visit completely changed my impression of the brand. After the way we were treated, I probably won't be back.

The salmon was absolutely delicious, with a subtle hint of Dijon mustard that elevated the flavor without overpowering it. The burger was juicy, tender, and cooked just right. Beyond the food, the atmosphere is what truly makes this place special. Located in a beautiful area of Fort Lauderdale, the waterfront seating provides stunning views and creates the perfect setting for any occasion. Whether you're enjoying a meal with colleagues, as I did, or planning a romantic dinner date, Kaluz offers a welcoming ambiance, exceptional service, and memorable dining experience. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food, beautiful scenery, and an overall outstanding restaurant experience. Rating: (5/5)

It was Valentine's Day and pretty crowded but we really enjoyed our time and our meal. We started with the LobsterBisque which was creamy, full of flavor and the corn really gave it the bit of texture needed. It's a bisque but I would have added a few chunks of lobster more. It was a bit light in that area but still delicious. For drinks, we had espresso and lychee martinis which were divine. I live for the scallops at Seasons 52 and it's my regular dish when I go. This dish did not disappoint. Perfectly seared and seasoned with a squeeze of lemon. You can't miss. The hubs had the surf and turf which was equally as good. The steak cut like butter and the lobster was delicious. We got the Mac n cheese for the table and, again, creamy yuminess. I would definitely recommend for a date night or special occasion. I love the seasonal items. Make sure to call ahead for reservations or book on OpenTable to avoid lines.

There are leather couches, bookshelves, velvet drapes, and cute light fixtures. The menu has a huge selection of shareables, salads, burgers, sandwiches, and full entrees. The menu items also have cute mob and prohibition-era names like "Untouchables Sliders," "Enforcers'Philly," "Bombshell Chicken," and "Zelda's," and "Capone's" salads. I have come for lunch, for dinner, and after dinner drinks; with just my mom, a few friends, and even a group of 14 ladies celebrating a birthday. The service has a little been slow at times, but the food has always been good and all the servers we've experienced have been friendly. I have especially enjoyed the Bombshell Chicken Sandwich and Hideway's Grilled Cheese. (They have several different grilled cheese options and they are all on sourdough bread either an accompanying cup of tomato soup.) The prices are reasonable and they have a full bar and live entertainment some evenings. Hideaway's is a unique experience; and a fun place to gather. It's easy to get to from anywhere in Plantation and there's lots of free parking. I'm hoping that Hideaways is here to stay!

Alexander's consistently puts out good food, good service, and a good vibe. Our server was 'Faith' and she was stellar! One of us got there way too early (like 10 minutes before everyone else) but even camping in her section with just a cocktail she never made us feel uncomfortable or awkward about it. One of us had special requests for her meal, no problem. One of us rolled in 5 minutes AFTER everyone else had arrived and ordered their drinks already, again... no problem. Faith is a superstar.

What stands out is the reliability across the board. The ambiance strikes that balance between upscale and comfortable, making it just as suitable for a casual dinner as it is for a business meal or special occasion. Service is attentive without being overbearing, and the staff clearly knows how to take care of guests. The cocktails are well-made and consistent, and the food delivers every time. You know what you're getting, and it's done right. In a market where consistency is rare, J. Alexander's continues to show up at a high level. Definitely worth the visit.
