It's a shame that Dean Max's bold and creative cooking is happening at such a poorly run restaurant; if your experience is like ours, you'll make up your mind long before the food hits the table. There was rarely anyone at the host stand, and we were kept waiting nearly 40 minutes for an 8:30 reservation (we were on time),... More

We went there for dinner and the dishes were suggested by our waiter, Tim Miller; great suggestions (we started with clams BLT, mussels in broth and we each had a wonderful halibut with lobster ravioli). Atmosphere is great as well. The service provided by Mr. Miller was the best ever. We sure plan on going back and will absolutely ask... More

One of the best restaurants in Fort Lauderdale! Always a pleasure! We started with the perfect bottle of wine, recommended by Tim, our waiter, which was spot on for our taste preference. We tried the mussels and clams BLT (we shared them and Tim was nice enough to have them split up for us), which were amazing! And the halibut... More

We stayed at the Marriot Hotel in Fort Lauderdale Florida. And the restaurant there was great! We not only had great food but the service was wonderful! Especially Tony at the Bar! He would serve us his special drinks and recommend food that we would never think of. And the best part is the next day, he remembered us. It... More

Very disappointed. First off, nobody answers the phone. Salad was small with little to no dressing. The seafood pasta was TERRIBLE. Way too much basil and the noodle used was too wide and long, making it very difficult to pick up with a fork. After returning the pasta, they sent me the halibut special. That was half decent. Not worth... More

The menu items we indulged in were delicious. The fresh mozzarella melted in our mouths, the free range chicken breast was tender, moist, cooked to perfection and as our server predicted there would only be a bone left the size of our finger. Indeed he was correct. The chef selection consisted of a mixed green salad with artichokes, shaved parmesan... More

Delicious! Ordered the filet, which was delicious; they did something amazing with an onion/potato and cheese = Au Gratin surprise. Beautiful presentation. My daughter (8) loved her noodles with butter. Fish was very taste. Pricey but worth it; I would return again.

We enjoyed everything about this restaurant! Tim, our waiter was the greatest. The food was out of this world, and I am picky! You have to try cauliflower soup. We do not mind paying the price, as long as it meets high standards, and 30 30 Ocean does it right. What an enjoyable evening!!

We loved it. Food was fabulous, and presentation was great. Service was very good, although a little pricey. If your going to splurge for a dinner, this is the place to do it.

Food here is class A. Restaurant is very upscale and nice specially at night waitresses not as warm and friendly as the other restaurants, but got the job done.
