    We had an incredible experience at Casa Sensei! The atmosphere was absolutely amazing, creating the perfect setting for a memorable meal. Our server, Alex, went above and beyond—he took the time to explain how their food service works and even recommended some fantastic dishes for us to try. We ordered several sushi rolls and the Korean Beef BBQ Fried Rice, which was not only delicious but also came in a huge portion—definitely great for sharing! Every dish we had was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. To top it all off, every table receives a large serving of cotton candy at the end of the meal. Our server explained that this unique touch is meant to bring a sense of nostalgia to the dining experience, and it was such a fun way to wrap up an already fantastic evening. If you’re visiting Las Olas Blvd, I highly recommend stopping by Casa Sensei. Exceptional service, incredible food, and a fantastic ambiance—this spot is a must-visit!

    Martini Monday (martini’s 1/2 off) is my friends and I favorite outing on Monday’s after a long day at work. Not a long wait for a table when you have reservations. I have celiac disease and they have a good amount of options for those with a gluten intolerance or allergy. They’re able to make any of their pasta dishes gluten free with their gluten free pasta, which they make in house. The head chef also brings out all gluten free dishes and there’s a certified gluten free sticker which is a nice touch.

    Our second visit to Big Coty Tavern was for lunch whereas the first was for dinner. Both experiences were very good. There are better menu choices for dinner, but the food and service were great on both occasions. We are local and look forward to our next visit.
