A disappointment I'm giving it a 3 star because we've had some wonderful meals here, but Friday was different. I've ordered the chicken Agrodolce several times in the past and is always remarkable. The distinct flavors of the chicken polenta onions raisins and currants all stood out individually. Not this time. For a $39 chicken dish it should be remarkable And this time it was not. My wife ordered the porcini Campanella. But it was overly mushroom tasty and could not taste anything else We may possibly go back but I am sure not for awhile read more

My book club meets here monthly, so I've had a chance to sample a few things off the menu. I haven't enjoyed everything, but they have an octopus dish (more of an appetizer, but enough for me and my small-ish appetite) and a grilled/roasted veg platter that are very good. The wine list is also strong, with a number of good by-the-glass options. The place is spacious, clean, and nicely appointed, and the restaurant generally seems well run. It's been a great spot for our group event, and I'm sure it would be likewise for a regular meal or happy hour. read more

Union Kitchen & Bar was an excellent choice for Fort Lauderdale's Dine Out Month. The atmosphere was sexy, vibrant, and welcoming from the moment we arrived. The handcrafted cocktails were beautifully balanced and truly felt mixologist-made. Our five-course dinner was flavorful, elegant, and thoughtfully prepared. The risotto and salmon were delicious, but the maple-glazed pork chop was absolutely unforgettable and easily one of the best I've had in Florida. Beautiful ambiance, wonderful service, and definitely a date-night favorite. read more

The Last Straw- The Last Noodle- The Last Date Night Overall. The Love, The Disappointments, The Finale... Being a Local, Finding this Spot, Starting Out being Our Favorite Restaurant in the Area taking Every Friend, Family Member, or Work Event for Dinner we always thought of Union and have Attended their Event Nights. The Owner and his Wife are Amazing! Always an Excitement to be Greeted by Roberto as he is Built-Up with Enthusiasm! Between Our Ventures with Dining with them we have been through a lot of Pleasure but with A Lot More Disappointed Lately. Lately.. As In.. Months Over Months of Keep Trying and Still Not Receiving which leaves us with a Huge Letdown. The Allure is The Location, The Interior, The Vibes, The Main Menu along with their Dreamy Wine List! While being Patrons we have Sat in All of their Locations of the Restaurant with having a Favorite Spot in the Back Patio that used to Call Ours. From the Front Patio to the Bar and Main Dining to the Back Patio; there is a Spot! The Food along with the Service has Greatly Depreciated to the Point that we No Longer Call on Union as this Past and Last Date Night was it. We had to have them Package Our Date Night Dinner Into Boxes to take Home as Service was Non-Existent. The Result of Our Dinner was Straight Oily Mess with Unforgettable Distaste. read more

We Went on a Saturday night for HH and sat on the back patio. Drinks and small plates are half price 5-7pm daily. My favorite was the crispy corn ribs. The flavor was amazing. Also delicious were the VERY meaty chicken wings with Peruvian spices. The crispy pork belly tacos are always a must. Menu changes seasonally. Dogs are welcome on the patios. Easy parking in the attached lot. Service was great. read more

Whether you are visiting South Florida or a resident, this establishment must be a top priority. Restaurants like this are the nectar of life. The greatest owner/head chef team as well as the staff. Every time we leave here, it feels like a dream. I could say more, but I'd rather you go try it out for yourself. read more

Excellent restaurant and bar. My wife and I really enjoyed the food, drinks and atmosphere. We sat at the bar and the staff was friendly and helpful. We started with the wings. They are excellent. Great flavor, crispy and the dipping sauce is yummy. I had the pork chop and my wife had the burger. Pork chop with super tender, flavorful and very juicy. It was excellent. The only reason they didn't get five stars is because my wife ordered her burger, medium well . Unfortunately, it came out rare, but she cut it in half before we took a bite. Rather than make her a new burger, they took the burger and cooked it more and then put it back on the bun cut in half . Will definitely return. read more

Six of us had dinner at Union Kitchen before our play at the Foundry Theatre. Three in my party consider Union to be the best restaurant around. I'm giving it 4 stars because I think the small portions and modestly high prices bring it down a notch. I had the Spinach Lumache which included braised rabbit. This pasta dish was very good, a 4 for sure. The rabbit is a nice touch. My friend had a citrus salad which was delicious but the portion was small for $17. His entree was Ricotta Ravioli which contained lobster. Again, delicious but a small portion in a tiny bowl that made it difficult to eat. ($24, lunch portion). The owner was onsite and welcomed everybody and thanked us on our exit. Having separate checks did not seem to bother our waiter. I thought it was a little odd that the waiter did not bother to push second glasses of wine or cocktails. That was fine with me because the libations were premium priced. A great, popular place but a little pricey for the portions. read more

Just tried Union Kitchen & Bar and was absolutely delighted! Food and service was really good. I love a place that offers good suggestions and is very attentive. We had the pork belly tacos and deviled eggs to start - yummy! For dinner we had the pork chop, halibut, and crispy cauliflower bowl . All very good. But the dessert was the star of the show. We enjoyed homemade bourbon espresso ice cream, the chocolate cherry cake and the donuts. Excellent! They recommended a great wine and we had a wonderful night. I will definitely be back. read more

My friends and I had a nice time here for a pre-game on a Saturday evening. They have a happy hour that ends at 7PM. Unfortunately, when we were there, the power was out. We couldn't get any food except for cocktail shrimp and oysters. For what we tried, everything was good. They shut down early that night because of the power. Luckily, they have outside seating so they accommodated us as best and as long as they could. It seems like this place would be busy if it weren't for the power outage that day. The ambiance is really relaxed. Everyone was nice. read more

We are visiting from snowy Syracuse NY and had an amazing experience at Union Kitchen and Bar! The drinks, food, service and ambiance were wonderful. I had the Beet Street Blues cocktail and the Beet ravioli with browned butter, goat cheese figs, walnuts and fresh thyme. Really outstanding....i was sad to take my last bite! My husband had the burger and sautéd spinach which he loved. David was an attentive server, as were the rest of the staff, who all stopped to ask if we need anything and filled water glasses. I highly recommend this experience! read more

Girls' night out at Union Kitchen & Bar was a total win! The vibe is modern chic yet cozy--like the kind of place where you can gossip for hours and still feel classy. Service was spot-on and the tasting menu was both generous and delicious. Every course came out cooked to perfection. My personal crushes of the night: the dreamy Peruvian potato croquettes, the rich porcini mushroom pasta, and the espresso martini ice cream that had me questioning if dessert can, in fact, replace coffee. Verdict: yes, it can read more

Went for dinner since we were staying at an Airbnb in Wilton manors near by, loved everything! We had reservations for our party of 8, seated pretty quickly, restaurant was packed but service was great. The restaurant is very cute with nice outdoor and indoor seating, and comfortable booth seating too. Loved the truffle/ mushroom pasta, the ravioli was very good too. I was surprised by the zucchini and corn fritters, so tasty/ possibly my favorite dish. And definitely glad we didn't skip dessert, the apple donuts were the perfect ending and the caramel dipping sauce was so delicious! So many vegetarian and vegan options which is great. Definitely recommend this place, all the food was so good, server told us it's locally owned, couple is Italian and Peruvian and menu reflects some of that which is great. Wilton manors is lucky to have this place! Wish it was in Tampa. read more

Plenty of free parking, which starts the evening out just perfect. Our party of four came for pre-theater. Our server was top-notch. He did an amazing job of explaining each and every one of the various wines that we each chose, we happened to be able to get happy hour prices from the bar as well as all of the appetizers. Each dish was delicious. One of our party had the signature burger, two of us chose the pasta dish with mushrooms, and the final person chose the fish of the day. read more

I love this restaurant and will surely go back again. The best part is that there were a wide variety of dishes that met the needs of everybody I was with. I had some people with allergies and other people with limited likes. Yet, every single person had a meal that they loved. I shared the shrimp salad appetizer with my wife, it was tasty flavorful and visibly appealing. The seared corvina, which is a type of bass, was cooked perfectly and was a mouthful of flavor. The restaurant is out of the way, but extremely pleasant. Recommended highly. read more

Was in the mood for oysters & I saw that they had them on the menu. The menu has tapas & a very interesting fusion of food. I called the old fashioned way to get a last minute reservation for a Friday evening. We were seated immediately. The restaurant has a small bar on 1 side & groups of tables on the other side. It's a nice, casual setting. About the food- after the oysters, that were good but kinda small, I ordered the blackened Swordfish with mango salsa. I ordered sautéed spinach too. Hubby started with the Kale Salad. He then ordered Broiled Fluke with spinach. We were enjoying everything!!! I got full but hubby has a sweet tooth! He ordered something with pumpkin & churros. With that- a double expresso. We've been here before for their wine dinners held usually on a Wednesday last week of the month. We were extremely happy with our date night out! Maybe we'll try another wine dinner! We will definitely come back soon. read more

Union Kitchen & Bar, formerly XES Bar, is a well-decorated modern-style place that exudes with warmth, comfort, and atmosphere. It has a super nice bar and both an outdoor patio along with an indoor covered and uncovered patio. Foodwise, it's rather unique in serving what it terms to be Modern American Cuisine. It's a husband-and-wife team with the husband having been born in Northern Italy and the wife in Peru. Both have a passion for food and each has managed to incorporate the culinary techniques of their respective backgrounds into the dishes they serve. They also concentrate on local foods with their menu changing seasonally, which menus always contain some unique items you wouldn't have at home like SPINACH TAGLIATELLE WITH BRAISED RABBIT peas, carrots, and thyme or SQUID INKLUMACHE WITH CRAB white wine, butter, lemon, bread crumbs, and herbs. On one dining occasion, I had their PORCINI CAMPANELLE done with wild mushrooms, peas, spinach, fresh herbs, and truffle cream. The pasta itself was handmade, had the perfect texture, and was a truly delicious culinary delight. Most recently I came for dinner, sat at the bar, had a couple of very good drinks, and chatted with their friendly and attentive bartender. For my meal, I ordered their GRILLED FLAT IRON STEAK rare with chimichurri and an herb crème fraiche. It was a total disappointment when it arrived, being well done, not rare, and with some seasoning that didn't even come close to any chimichurri sauce I've ever encountered. It really wasn't very good at all. I've also been there at other times. At those times, without getting into details, what I had was good, but at other times not very good. So, to me, consistency lacks which overall renders Union Kitchen & Bar somewhat of a hit-or-miss place. read more

I made a reservation to sit in the front patio area but due to the pouring rain we sat at the back bar. The back patio is really nice it's covered and a great outdoor space I've heard really good things about the chef and was excited to try this place. Surprisingly they do have happy hour six nights a week from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at the bars and front patio. I ordered the grilled octopus which comes with two sauces, pea puree and chimichurri and crispy potatoes. The octopus was cooked to perfection and the potatoes were great. They have on their menu four choices of homemade pasta so I had to try one of those since I love homemade pasta. I went with the spinach tagliatelle with braised rabbit. It's served in a bowl and the sauce is a little soupy. It is definitely a unique sauce and very fresh. I enjoyed it but it's not a dish I would order again. We saw that the couple next to us was eating something that we weren't sure what it was so we asked, it was a special, caviar. Our waitress forgot to mention it to us Was too full for dessert however look forward to coming back to try their ricotta Donuts served with orange marmalade and chocolate sauce. read more

Union Kitchen is an upscale leaning restaurant in Wilton Manors. Food tends toward Italian. Pastas, salads, fish and pork. Food was very good. Highly recommend the fried mozzarella salad. Great way to start a meal. While the food was quite good, the service left me wanting. After my first cocktail my server never bothered to ask if I wanted another drink. She filled my water glass with routine but did not seem interested in another run to the bar. Not gonna lie, I was a little surprised. read more
