Best Seasonal Restaurants in Lauderdale by the Sea

We are locals and there is a reason the Seawatch has been open almost 50 years. From the friendly valet staff then the hostess and the serving staff, they make you feel welcomed. Drink menu is very good and the wine selections are a great pairing for any item on their menu. The location and ambiance makes for a pleasurable dining experience. On our visit (This is one of their busiest weeks of the year) we chose to sit in the patio area to enjoy the night air. Our server was most attentive and informative with our menu questions and wine selections. Food was prepared to perfection, seafood fresh and came out hot. This was quite a task being as busy as they were. We had a wonderful time, as usual as we always count on them for a great dinner or celebrating an occasion with family.

This is our go to place for special occasions as well as a great place for lunch or dinner. We have enjoyed this restaurant since it opened and have never been disappointed. The food is outstanding - whether steak or seafood. The service is excellent.

Our Christmas dinner at Maass was just unbelievable. We have been there a number of times but took our son and his girlfriend there to enjoy and experience the wonders of Maass. The food was amazing and excellent while the service was just outstanding. We throughly enjoyed everything.

Christmas dinner at Mastro’s was fantastic. The food, as always is amazing…perfectly seasoned and presented. They serve love on a plate at Mastro’s! The staff is always warm and welcoming when I return. Preston, the manager stopped by the table to insure everything was satisfactory. David & Steve were very gracious in greeting us. Stefan provided excellent service throughout the evening. It is a pleasurable experience dining at Mastro’s each and every time. I can’t wait to return!

The service was amazing. The food was amazing. I had the shrimp and scallop risotto. It’s always excellent and we share the dessert of the crème brûlée bread pudding. It was the best I’ve ever had.
