"Fort Lauderdale’s Coconuts restaurant offers waterfront dining and an inventive menu that is primarily composed of delicious seafood and comfort foods. Treat yourself to tasty dishes like the Lobster Roll, Jambalaya, or the Gravy Train (breaded pork loin medallions in home gravy). Stop in for Sunday brunch and try the seafood quiche."
"With autumn upon us and winter on the way, eating outside in South Florida becomes a more pleasant experience. So, what better time to pay a visit to Coconuts, one of Ft. Lauderdale's premier waterfront restaurants."

"Restaurants Seafood Downtown. Area 31’s 16th-floor lounge may not technically be on the roof, but its view of Downtown is hard to beat. A photo op here is one you'll be tempted to caption with “I live where you vacation,” but don't be that guy."
"Perched 16 floors high inside the EPIC Hotel in Downtown Miami, this longtime restaurant still has some of the best views of Miami's Downtown skyline in the city. Whether going for its popular happy hour or for a seafood feast, grab a seat on its outdoor patio and soak up the views."

"There is no shortage of restaurants, but too many of them are the kind of places designed for vacationing millionaires who want to see and be seen while tossing back $20 cocktails. River Oyster Bar is not one of those places. It’s upscale, but not sickeningly fancy."
