    After years of talking about dining at Casa Sensei, we were delighted to finally do so, and it entirely lived up to its stellar reputation. We were treated to a pleasant table right on the scenic canal, where we could watch the gondolas come and go on the water. The receptionist and our servers were friendly, cordial, responsive, and efficient, creating a great dining experience. And our meals were spectacular. The charred octopus was succulent and flavorful, tempura shrimp were plentiful and delicious, an ahi tuna salad was fresh and tasty, and the butter chicken with rice — a house specialty — was to die for. Our fellow diners loved their shrimp pad Thai and steak fried rice, which came in substantial portions. An excellent and diverse wine list offered perfect accompaniments to our meal. Prices were very reasonable, especially compared to the many high-end restaurants along Las Olas Boulevard. We could see why this place is always among the top-rated restaurants in Fort Lauderdale. We are eager to return.

    We had a wonderful experience at Earl’s Kitchen! Our server Emily G was absolutely phenomenal, attentive, warm, and genuinely dedicated to making sure we had everything we needed throughout our meal. Her customer service truly stood out and made the visit extra special. The food was delicious, but honestly, the service took it to another level. If you’re looking for a place where the whole experience great food and great hospitality comes together, Earl’s Kitchen delivers. We’ll definitely be back, and we’ll be asking for Emily!

    If you want a great spot on the intercoastal which provides the feel of South Florida AND the best meal to go along with it, go to Serafina and bring friends and guests or just a romantic spot for two. Joe is my usual server and he is awesome!!!
