Apt. 9F

Stopped by for happy hour after work which includes $5 glasses of wine. Tried the Jalapeno corn muffins, the baked goat cheese, and the meatballs. Everything was super fresh, full of flavor, and came out hot. The staff was a delight, we were regularly checked on even with the happy hour rush. I can't wait to go back to try the rest of the menu.

Such a fabulous atmosphere. Staff was amazing. I saw they had my favorite gin and they created me a fabulous cocktail. We enjoyed a lovely salad and the baked goat cheese which were both fantastic. Highly recommend and can’t wait to go back.

If you’re looking for a place that’s entirely too perfect, where the vibes are immaculate, the owners are way too charming, and the drinks somehow always hit just right—don’t come to Apt9f. Leave it to us. We’ve practically set up camp and now just refer to it as “HQ.” Carol and Nancy? Ugh. Could they be any more delightful? It’s honestly rude how effortlessly cool they are. Ally runs the show like a cocktail-slinging wizard with a psychic sense for what you need before you even know you need it. Frankly, we’re starting to think she’s magic. Or at least part espresso. From the cozy decor to the can’t-miss events and that “just one more” energy that keeps you staying far longer than intended—it’s honestly unfair how good this place is. So yeah, 5 stars. Reluctantly. Only because 6 isn’t an option. Just don’t take our seats—we’re probably already there.

Great vibe! Loved it all; from the service to the cocktails to the small plates. Interesting concept with limited tables plus chill couches and coffee tables. We had plenty with three small plates and a couple of cocktails between the two of us.

Love this place! Their fresh scones are amazing!!! 🤩 They also have a great quiche, pancakes, Dutch baby and more! Excellent drink selection as well and bread pudding! The service is top notch and the place is quaint. Always a pleasure coming here.

A place I'm sure to visit when I'm in town. Delicious and unique craft cocktails and amazing food. The chicken quesadilla is a favorite of mine, and a warm cookie a la mode, of course! Feb. 2025: On my most recent trip, I was able to make it in for Sunday brunch. Wow! So many choices, it was hard to decide. But still delicious once I did!

Carol and Nancy were amazing! First time visiting, not only the owners but the staff were phenomenal. You can’t go wrong with anything you order, food, drinks and dessert were delicious. Can’t wait to be back. Top notch service.

Best steak salad EVER. Went back two days in a row. Not pretentious. Not over the top anything. Just a VERY comfortable place. Everyone is “Honey” and it’s a good thing. Almost as I imagine visiting your nurturing older sister’s house while in her town. Allie and Mark (I could have this wrong-drinks were good) were amazing. My wife and I sat at the bar and people-watched. Raspberry Spritzer and a Toasted Almond were served and the show began. Allie and Mark-I really think those are their names- were conductors in an orchestra of orders and customers. Thursday night rush or a popular place anytime….. but they were constantly and deliberately moving. Freddie was working to run food and bus tables and make sure EVERYONE had a great experience. Our steak salad and Bbq flatbread were plated beautifully. I had the steak salad and it has a champagne vignagrette over candied pecans, sliced pear, and other goodness. We also had the goat cheese skillet…. The bread it was served with was VERY GOOD. The goat cheese was too spicy for me…. But my wife liked it. The MVP of the night might have been the chef’s assistant… or the cook’s right hand. Sitting at the bar we had a full view into the open kitchen. Picture a two foot square area surrounded by tools and appliances and filled with TALENT. The chef is good…. But she was having a come-a-part and it showed to us as spectators. As diners…. The food didn’t show it. The assistant… talented, female, tan, brown hair …. Never heard her name….. but she put out fire after fire in the fire in the mind of the chef……. Talked her off the ledge multiple times…… Like I said the food was great…. The assistant was an MVP and Mark and Ellie? Allie? Hallie? Tattood right arm…. Shakes a mean martini….. ellie I think…. She and mark were great!!!! Might have one more salad tomorrow!

Always a vibe at Apt 9F. Great place to come with a group of friends to share a few bites. We got a bottle of the house wine with some meatballs and charcuterie to share. Service was quick and attentive.

What's taken me so long to review Apt 9F? Probably because I dine there often and it never occurred to me. All I can say is if I have friends visiting this is where I take them. Apt 9F is my comfy place. So laid back with tables, chairs, couches, outdoor seating. I like to sit at the bar if it's me and someone else. The service is on point and the owner Carol will stop by and check on you. I always feel taken care of. A limited tapas menu with a nightly special. I love the goat cheese dip. And tonight I had the shrimp and my companion had the steak salad. Last night we both ordered the dip and pork belly tacos. Delicious! Oh! And cornbread muffins to go! All I can say is Apt 9F is home. I adore this place.

Great tapas, service and ambiance! Very friendly staff and yummy drinks! Customers were also friendly

5 stars all around...fantastic brunch food with cool small space ambience plus nice staffers, right in the heart of Wilton Manors 5 star food: from old standbys like egg variations to newer brunch favorites like avocado toast, this place has it all. So far I've never had anything that i didn't like. 5 star service: the staffers are incredibly friendly, funny and competent. There's a full bar with friendly barkeep too 5 star ambience: right in the heart of Wilton Manors...on a mild day, outside tables get a good view of the free sidewalk show. Inside is mood lit and homey with sofas.

This place is so cute and so inviting. The interior is small so we had to sit outside which was fine. We enjoyed our brunch here. All the food was delicious but portions were small so my boyfriend left hungry. I wish they had a few larger plate options but I enjoyed the tapas style bunch very much as we were able to share each others' plates. Would love to come back for dinner or drinks again soon. The servers here are just the loveliest people. And the drinks were delicious.

Chill tapas spot on the edge of the drive. We enjoyed the Avocado & Feta flatbread, had a fun spicy kick. The shrimp pil pil is similar to the garlic shrimp we had in Madrid. We enjoyed the jalapeño corn muffins. We probably could have had more dishes but we were on our way to an event. The people next to us ordered the tacos and it looked REAL good. Service was fast and attentive. The living room/apartment vibe is cool.

Came to this cute little spot with some friends. It was super packed for a week day night & I was surprised. Seems like a lot of locals frequent here, and someone was having a birthday celebration here. The owners are so nice, personable, and attentive. The food was delicious and amazing flavors! I will be back!

I tell you, If "FRIENDS" was Re- booted today....Here is the place the gang would hang! Great staff, great food, frothy cocktails! And supposedly, a Great Brunch! Not a place to miss in the area! As a Hells Kitchen ,NYer I would frequent this place if a local...

An adorable place for dinner inside the cozy restaurant or outside on the sidewalk. The menu is pretty small, which I always appreciate, and the dishes we tried were great. I'd highly recommend the turkey meatballs; the menu warns that they have nuts, and they add a nice flavor and texture. The steak sandwich is also very good, especially with the sugar coated pecans. Our waitress was very sweet and attentive. They do have some great specials, like happy hour and also Wine Wednesday, where bottles of wine are $15. I'll definitely be back!

This spot is SO cute! Truly brings me back to the cozy spots in SoHo NY. Very trendy and located in the heart of Wilton manors. We sat outside which are up for grabs before a certain hour. Menu had a nice selection of tapas, salads and flatbreads which really are big enough to share. We ordered the BBQ chicken flatbread, baked goat cheese with chibatta bread, and jalapeño corn muffins. Every single dish was INCREDIBLE! I can't explain how especially delicious the corn muffins were. Chefs kiss we ended our date with the ooey gooey blueberry bread pudding which was worth every calorie. Service was good. We did have to wait a bit for drinks but totally saw how busy it was and our server was super swamped. Honestly worth the wait. We just people watched as we waited. Highly recommend this spot, will not disappoint.

Local bar with a very warm atmosphere. Excellent food and drinks. Limited inside seating but a nice outside seating during pleasant weather.

Had brunch here. The food sounded good, but was executed poorly. Specifically, the mini beef Wellington dish was overcooked and could have been at any mediocre buffet at a corporate event. In retrospect, I don't understand why they make them small as it would be magical to manage to have it come out other than overcooked at that small size. I've eaten here before for a light pre-theater dinner. Bottom line is if you view this is as a charming bar with hors d'ouerves or snacks you'll be happy. If you think you're going to have a meal, you'll be disappointed.

This is a cozy little hideaway we've walked past several times and been wanting to try out. We sat at the bar and loved the casual wine shop feeling of the entire restaurant. The service was warm and welcoming and the food was great. The wine recommendation was also very delicious. The baked goat cheese and turkey meatballs are a must try! My only wish was that there would be even more unique small bites we could look forward to ordering next time. Highly recommend overall

Have visited this place quite a few times and the drinks are always great with nice bartenders. I love the espresso martinis and there quite a few tasty appetizers as well, like the turkey meatballs and flatbreads. It's decorated like a homey coffee shop but it's still loungey at the same time, with some couches or the bar options. Chill spot in comparison to the rest on the drive.

We absolutely loved our meal here. Went with our friend Bob for dinner and we got a nice table outside. The waiter came quickly to take our drink order. We all got glasses of wine. I loved my Canyon Road Sauvignon Blanc...perfectly cold, smooth and crisp with nice citrus notes.... For food we got the following: - Chicken Quesadillas - lightly fried quesadilla wrap with tasty chicken filling inside. - Steak bruschetta - we asked for no blue cheese, so the dish came a bit dry, but the steak tasted very good. - Charcuterie plate - Delicious mix of cheeses and meats with a nice crusty bread to go with. A side of honey was given. It gave the entire dish a nice sweet note. - Bread pudding - It was warm, sweet and tasty. One excellent dessert. One of the owners came by towards the end, asking how everything was and we said, everything was really good. She was very friendly and engaging. We loved our meal here and we will be coming back.

This is a great Spot. Made it there for the first time and my wife and I really enjoyed the food, the atmosphere and the staff. I'm pretty sure it was the owner who was helping us. Really enjoyed the conversation we had and we were happy we decided to come here. Everything was great. We had the charcuterie board, jalapeño cornbread muffins, quesadilla and goat cheese and bacon flatbread. Everything was delicious and perfectly cooked. The best part was the bread pudding for dessert one of the best we've had.

Cozy little spot for tapas food and drinks on the drive.. Service was good and welcoming. Very quaint and quiet. Nice place to go to relax and mellow out after a hard day at work, or just hang out with a friend(s). I highly recommend you visit and experience the spot for yourself.

This place is amazing for the decorations and the vibe feel like you're in someone's apartment. The place is a little packed small overall definitely a vibe place locals love it so if you're local, this place is really cool to hang out in.

Only giving them a 2 because of the service. The service and atmosphere are the only reason this place could be rated so highly. The food is horrible! The meatballs are the worst thing I've ever had... Nothing we had was edible!

Stopped by for some small plates and wine on a weekday evening. It was a cozy spot inside, but we opted to sit outside on the drive & enjoy people watching and conversation. Service was quick and friendly. I'll return.

Food was yummy Jalapeño muffin tops , what a good idea and delish Also had Bacon and goat cheese flat bread which was amazing, shrimp pil pil , and a little charcuterie , all very good Friendly atmosphere, fast service ,sat outside which is great for people watching They also offer a plethora of drinks Can't wait to try other menu items next time

Food is basically the most delicious appetizers in history of mankind. Turkey meat balls , chicken bbq on flatbread , pork belly tacos with diced mango yummmmmm. The service is warm friendly and attentive... the ambiance is chill , relaxing . If you like quiet dining with your boo no problem, maybe you like socializing at the bar with others while you drink / eat - you got it. Easy peazy !! Outside dining - absolutely !! I chose to spend my time inside by the window seat with my friend eating the mentioned food above. While people watching THE DRIVE while sitting in ac. We stayed longer fir the peach cobbler and bread pudding --- Ohmygawd!! You are gonna have to go and write your own review .... Loved every bite. The people, the place -- you'll see us again !!! Soon!! Love ya

Amazing place, Carol and Nancy are amazing owners/ hosts. Ali is an awesome bartender. They always pick the perfect wine for me, to match the delicious for I've ordered... Tracey is also a great bartender also. The 4 of them make a great team. You want great food and derive this is the place to be...

Watch out. There is a woman server outside that does not like if you show up at the last hour. Always loved this place until this evening, #neveragain

Apt 9f will not disappoint... the food, service and ambience are exceptional. The portions are to share, the craft cocktails are to enjoy and the atmosphere creates a unique experience in the heart of Wilton Manors

I recently moved to Oakland and decided to check out Apt 9f. Let me tell you it did not disappoint! The place is cozy and cute with both indoor and outdoor seating. The service was great and they have a good HH. I ordered a couple charcuterie plates (small portions IMO) but the jalapeño corn muffins stole the show. My next visit will be for the brunch menu!

Cozy, endearing drinking den located in Wilton Manners. We came for happy hour on Wednesday and I will definitely be back! In addition to their regular happy hour, they offer half off select bottles of wine on Wednesday. The bites were very tasty! We ordered the garlic shrimp, avocado flatbread, jalapeño corn muffins, and Turkey meatballs. Everything was delicious! The meatballs were the only thing I probably wouldn't get again. The servers were very friendly with personality! Our waitress Carol really made the experience! At the end of the night it came up that they were short staffed that night, but we couldn't even tell! That's how good she was! If you have not checked it out, go!

Cute little spot with very good small plate options for nibbling. Cocktails are creative and you can definitely find something new to try. Staff is amazing and very friendly.

We have been coming here for years and it's still as good as my first 5 star review. The lady's who own this place ensure the best service and make everyone feel like they are family. Martini Mondays are fun, but my favorite is half price wine Wednesday. It's a great deal and the tapas are still delicious. There is usually a food special each night so just ask. I have never had a dish here that I did not love. The bacon feta flatbread is a special favorite for me. Whatever you like, this is not a place that disappoints. Friendly atmosphere, great drinks, and fair prices. It doesn't get much better than 9f on Wilton Drive.

The food was done well and the drinks were spot on. It is not a place to go if you are ravenously hungry - the plates are more snack sized to go with drinks. If that is what you are in the mood for with a relaxing vibe this place is great. Service friendly and very laid back.

Staff ambiance drinks and food make this a must stop in Wilton Manners. Perfect place for conversation!

After a long absence, we went to Apt 9f for date night last night. Both the food and craft cocktail menu are expanded and upgraded. We opted for wine - Chemistry pinot noir and the Provençal rose, both lovely and refreshingly properly chilled. We had the charcuterie (prosciutto, aged Manchego and marinated olives served with toasted Ciabatta and honey, and the bacon and goat cheese flatbread. Both were delicious and obviously prepared with quality ingredients. We finished up with the turkey meatballs, well seasoned and served in a lightly spicy sauce. Service friendly - even though he forgot to bring us our wine for a while (he apologized!) Sitting outside on a pleasant evening made for a perfect date night. Can't wait to come back and check out brunch.

Carol and her staff made my daughter and family's birthday experience so enjoyable!! From the homemade jalapeño corn muffins to the grilled shrimp salad (dressings are homemade) everything was delicious. The service was so welcoming and even the patrons wished my daughter a happy birthday. It is a small cozy place inside, and the energy was palpable!! We were so grateful that they were able to accommodate our party of 8 with no problem. Everyone was so friendly and gracious; and Carol is an outstanding hostess.

We both really loved this small and cozy place. Located in Wilton Manors, and woman-owned, EVERYONE will feel welcome here. And what the talented chef (also a woman) is able to successfully accomplish in an open kitchen the size of a postage stamp is truly amazing. We came for happy hour so certain drinks were on special, but the limited menu is reasonably priced to begin with. It's self described as a "drinking den" and their full bar and creative cocktails should appeal to any adventurer. We sat at the bar and got an educational view of all the concoctions. There is seating at the bar and some inside tables along the opposite wall. In addition, there are some umbrellaed tables directly outside. Street parking is the closest, if you can find it. We started by sharing their tasty baked Turkey meatballs. There were 5 to the order. They were topped with a green sauce (pesto?) and had nuts inside (pine?). A piece of ciabatta bread came with them. Following that, we shared their rib-eye steak bruschetta. Two pieces of toasted ciabatta bread --each spread with a blue cheese cream cheese -- were topped with mixed greens, tomatoes, cukes, and ample pieces of tender sliced steak. This was yummy. And surprisingly, just those two items were a perfect dinner for us. Their menu is a mix of small plates ("bites") -- about 10/11 different ones -- plus their "build your own" boards with various meats and cheeses, etc. They even have a couple dessert choices. I could easily see spending a couple hours here with friends -- chatting, sipping drinks, and sampling their menu offerings. Or even stopping by for an appetizer and a cocktail before dinner (at home or out). And I'm sure we will return again some time in the future. PS Thank you yelp elite Marqus. As usual, we would not have discovered this place without your intriguing review.

the gurls are kickin in today people !!! shrimp sausage grits !!! and the scone special !!! not to missed missed !!

We go for brunch at least once a month. Love the owners and employees. Literally the best customer service on the drive! Make sure you get enough to eat because their unlimited Mi and Bloody Mary's

The service was great. Very tasty food and fun place to hang out with your peeps. It was a great way to start off Sunday funday.

Honestly the best food in Fort Lauderdale! This place was small and so welcoming. The owner greeted us as if we were old friends. I came with my female partner and we felt so safe and comfortable. The bread pudding is TOO DIE FOR!!!! So much so that we came back the next day for it again. The tapas were so flavorful. The truffle cheese was phenomenal so was the brioche. Brunch had delicious Bellinis and every entree was so yummy and fresh. We left feeling full but not overly stuffed. We wish there was a place like this in Massachusetts! Thank you for such a great experience and we hope to be back!

What a fun place. The owners are from NYC and that was their apt number in NY! I loved it. so had a nice conversation with Nancy (one of the owners). swe talked about NY and how we missed a lot in FL of NY Things- but at least here it felt like NY! My friend and I sat outside and we ordered chardonnay and rose wines. We then split a charcuterie board of cheeses (manchego, brie and gouda), red pepperderos and prosciutto with toasted ciabatta. It was delicious. So we had a nice relaxing time. I would say the website needs a little more information (I would be nice to see the menu ahead). Also, when we had to get in touch with the restaurant I sent a DM and they responded quickly. I would definitely go back! I love the decor in the place!

Went for brunch and this cozy little spot is superb. Food was great, service was top notch and the homey atmosphere is perfect. And make sure you grab some fresh muffins to go!

Great food and drinks, welcoming service and friendly vibe!Great food and drinks, welcoming service and friendly vibe!Great food and drinks, welcoming service and friendly vibe!Great food and drinks, welcoming service and friendly vibe! repeated because I had to write more characters, not school Yelp, try this place.

This little boutique wine bar/ restaurant is exceptional. It it very quant and small. Very homie. Food is great. Love the flat breads with the fantastic drinks and wine selections it's the perfect start to your Saturday night. The girls here know how to service and make you laugh. Such an enjoyable experience and I will always come back. Love. Love. Love.

Great food...great service...was there today for brunch and it was spectacular as always. Had a reservation and was seated right away. Carol (one of the owners) is a gem. If you are looking for a great place with a great vibe...and reasonably priced, this should be your choice.

My friends and I have been to Apt 9f a few times in the past few weeks. Apt 9f has a unique, refreshing vibe; a nice change of pace to other restaurants / bars on Wilton "The Drive." Prior to moving here a few years ago, I would be in NYC multiple times a week and this really reminds me of the small, family operated storefront places in Manhattan and Brooklyn with warm, inviting interiors and sought-after al fresco sidewalk dining and drinking. One of the owners stopped by our curbside table a few times to chat and help out. The staff is accommodating and provided excellent service. We ended up drinking at least 3 bottles of surprisingly good and reasonably priced "house" Italian wine, Santa Marina Pinot Grigio. The slew of craft cocktails change with the season, with the preserves, syrups and bitters made in-house. The small plates are quality dishes. We all had our own favorites. The charcuterie is build-your-own which we liked. I loved the Steak Bruschetta that had rib-eye atop Danish Bleu cream cheese toasted ciabatta. A bit difficult to cut and share but we managed. My friends loved the spicy Shrimp Pil-Pil in olive oil, paprika and red pepper flakes. The Pork Belly Tacos were tasty. The Bacon, Goat Cheese & Caramelized Onion Flatbread was excellent! Apt 9f truly is a neighborhood gem, and a self-described "Drinking Den and Social Eatery." More places like this on The Drive please!

It's like "Cheers" where you can go and meet new and old friends over robust wines, specifically selected by the owners and delicious specialty drinks. Additionally they provide varied light dishes to enjoy. The best time of the week is Sunday brunch with tasteful homemade choices from eggs benefits to pancakes and I know you'll find something to suit your taste. I recommend making a reservation for Sunday as you'll see how busy it can get. Definitely a fun place to be.

Food was great. Owners are down to earth. Very cute date vibe and reminiscent of a bar you'd find in New York City. 10/10 recommend.

I always enjoy my visits to 9F, which is modeled after the owner's apartment in New York. They have a full bar with a tasty selection of specialty cocktails. I tried the Zest for Life and Lime in the Coconut, which tasted like a melted pina colada. Both were delicious. For food, they have a nice selection of small plates and a create your own charcuterie board. They have cozy seating, as well as bar and outdoor tables available. It often gets pretty crowded and you literally like you are at a party in someone's apartment. The owner treats everyone like family, and the staff is friendly and fun. I definitely recommend a visit during happy hour so you can grab your seat early and enjoy the night. There is metered parking a few steps away, which is welcome when your visit is done.

This is my absolute go-to on Wilton Drive. The service from Carol, Nancy, Ally, Tracy and team simply cannot be beat. They remember names and faces and always make every effort to make every guest feel they are at home. The small plates are perhaps some of the best eats in the entirety of South FL, and to see how small of a space they prepare the food from vs the quality that comes out of it is quite remarkable. $5 martini and Monday Chicken Wings night are my favorite, and I'm absolutely LOVING the new summer menu! Keep up the great work, ladies! We'll see you soon!

Amazing service, great staff and of course Carol and Nancy. One of the best dirty martini's I ever had was at Apt 9f.
