Experience modern, coastal Italian cuisine at Fort Lauderdale's newest hot spot, La Fuga. Chef Michael Mayer infuses local South Florida flavors with classic Italian staples to create a fusion of crave-worthy, contemporary dishes.

La Fuga, (Italian for "the escape,") is nestled in the heart of the Kimpton Shorebreak, named in homage to the location’s historic beginnings. The newly renovated Kimpton Shorebreak occupies a unique space in Fort Lauderdale, originally opened as The Escape Hotel in 1949.

La Fuga pays tribute to it's origin story in name and also in atmosphere. Featuring midcentury design, and a laid-back vibe, the indoor-outdoor dining room includes views of the hotel's scenic courtyard and provides access to a rooftop pool overlooking Fort Lauderdale’s intercoastal.

    This was our 5th time, everything was great. Tried the calamari and muscles and it is our new favorite starter. Our meal was fantastic and desert 😘 the tiramisu is the best.

    The delightful manager greeted us warmly and sat us outside as we requested. The outside tables were arranged around a swimming pool that is a feature of the boutique Kimpton Hotel or the adjacent apartment building. Not unpleasant but no view to speak of. We ordered a margarita pizza to start, to share, and were disappointed. Probably, no definitely, the worst margarita pizza we ever had. The crust was burnt, the tomato “sauce” tasted like canned tomato paste, the the little squares of cheese (maybe mozzarella) were not properly melted. After eating a couple of slices, we sent the remainder back to the kitchen to be properly cooked. The result was no better. At this point, we had lost our appetite and ordered the ricotta cheese cake to share. Spouse said it was okay,,I thought it was mushy and not tasty enough. The kind manager and table attendant are deserving 5 stars. But when averaged with the food and ambience, down to a 3.
