Evelyn's

Visited Evelyn’s for the first time for our anniversary. We decided to order the 5 course menu, Taste of Evelyn’s. Every course was delicious. We especially enjoyed the truffle hummus, the branzino and the wagyu skewer. The service was amazing. Our waiter and the rest of the staff were so warm, friendly and attentive. We were even given a complimentary glass of rose for our anniversary. Also the Chef came out to explain some of the dishes. All in all, wonderful anniversary dinner.Would recommend and can’t wait to go back.

Just finished an excellent meal here to cap off our best friend annual trip. The reviews here are misleading — absolutely no portion was small and we actually had food left over. We would probably order two less plates next time and it’d be the comfortable amount for two people. We were a bit bummed there were no substitutions for the tasting menu (I’m not a fish, fish person) but essentially made our own. Definitely worth a visit just be prepared to make it your splurge meal of your trip!

Our tasting experience was amazing! The food flavors are unique and so delicious. Service was top notch. I recommend doing the wine pairing if you do the tasting experience. Each wine paired so perfectly with each dish. Our food favorites were the white truffle hummus, branzino, potatoes, and passion fruit dessert.

Dinner at Evelyn's was absolutely phenomenal!! From the lobby entrance in the Four Seasons to the ocean views over the third floor pool, everything was first class. The hostesses were friendly knowledgeable professional and polite. Our waiter was a wealth of knowledge and full of meaningful and useful recommendations. Every food item and every beverage option was spot on. Our wine could not have been better and the Turkish coffee at the end of the night was absolutely delicious. Appetizers were tasty and garden fresh, main courses were served at the exact right temperatures and were probably the best we've ever had - truly. The salmon was ideal, and the Wagyu Beef was as tender and tasty as I've ever enjoyed. Evelyn's is a definite must, whether you're a busy in town or a native!! We will be back for brunch!!

Evelyn's was really great! It's very beautiful, overlooking the ocean, is small and quaint (which I love), and the food was outstanding. We arrived for our dinner reservation on a Thursday night and were seated right away. After we ordered, they sent over a bowl filled with ice and in it, a few locally harvested fresh baby veggies. It was the cutest thing ever and the vegetables tasted literally perfect (with a side of green Tahiti dipping sauce which was out of this world). For our salad, we got the Pear & Apple Fattoush and besides being absolutely beautiful and a hearty size, it was incredibly flavorful and delicious. We alsongot the Stone Fired Pita to enjoy with the Smoked Eggplant dip. We received 2 large hot fresh from the oven pitas and the Eggplant was so good! For our main dishes, we ordered the Lamb chops (yummy) and the Pomegranate Glazed Ora King Salmon and it was cooked to perfection. We shared the delicious Crispy Brussels Sprouts. For dessert, we shared the Pistachio Chocolate Chip Cookies with pistachio ice cream. The cookies were warm and heavenly. I WISH we had room to try the Dark Chocolate Pave (I LOVE halva)... we simply had no room left in our bellies for that. Next time! Parking is a bit difficult because it's scant street parking (if you're lucky), otherwise hotel valet, which (with validation) is $25 plus tip. One would hope that if you're eating in one of their restaurants, and spending $200-$300 per couple (without cocktails), valet would be complimentary. Regardless, we would definitely go again! 5 stars without a doubt.

What a restaurant. For me each course bested the last one. The Salad & Dips with Outa for the Apps tasted fresh and delicious, I abused the House Made Hot Sauce (Be careful it is made with Habanero, but if like spice you will love this). Followed by the shared Bronzino and Ribeye Steak which both tasted great. The Bronzino was especially flavorful with its roasted/charred seasonings on top, very good. The sides of the potatoes and brussels sprouts were spot on, the potatoes were like the thousand layer potatoes seen on social media. Lastly the dessert took the spot light for me, the Key Lime Pie was outrageous and the Dark Chocolate Pava was insane! I’d come back here for just these two desserts. Staff was friendly and atmosphere was cool, the Vesper Martini I had was also prepared very well. Highly Recommend this restaurant!

After 30+ years of dining at most every top end establishment in this city I can firmly state, that there is no equal! This place checks every square! I highly recommend the Chefs tasting menu, no work needed to select an absolute palate pleasing, pleasure experience! Everyone in our party was thrilled as each dish was not simply served, but presented, not by just and outstanding server, but by the chef himself. The accompanying wine pairings deserve equal attention as each was presented and explained specifically to accompany each item that is served. The selection presented, was an outstanding example of all this establishment has to offer, and each one was at a world class level. It would take way too many words to describe each one. This is the place for an experience, not just food. If you are looking to make or enjoy a lasting memory , you will be more than simply well served here!

Took our friend here for his birthday and we ended up doing the chefs tasting and was it worth it. This place was amazing with everything the service, food, drinks and more. Highly recommend going here and trying it out!!

Mr and I had a fight right when we entered this place and thus no pictures as I was busy being mad lol We did not have a reservation but could easily manage to get a seat on a Monday night. The interiors are impressive and the outdoor seating area is cozy and warm and very inviting. First impression was great!! Definitely the distinct flavor stood out in every meal we had. Pumpkin soup was delicious and the seasoning with something nutty was what made is amazing. Then we had the octopus which was tiny in portion but absolutely mouth watering and we'll presented. We also had the harra potatoes which were mind-blowing. There was something peculiar about all the spices and seasonings done on the items. We would have tried the pomegranate salmon and dessert if we were not fighting haha Great experience, worth the $$$

Bottom line - this is an overpriced, pretty-plated, small serving restaurant. The servers dote on diners and present crisp service. The windows overlook the sand and water and the place has an open, airy, loud vibe. So, while it has a livelier energy than traditional high-end restaurants, in a minute you realize this bustling restaurant is ok but not spectacular. The menu produces pretty plates, but the menu is small. Our salad was the most beautiful dish. Surprisingly, the falafel appetizer was the best-tasting, albeit $19 for 4 balls. We ordered a swordfish kebab (overcooked) and salmon kebab (undercooked). I was surprised because they offer a small menu, Lebanese influenced a la chef's expertise, so I thought everything would be cooked perfectly. While flavorful, the swordfish was a little dry and the salmon was undercooked in the still-wet center so we just ate around the it. This was a celebration dinner, so I didn't want to make a big deal of it. We didn't order dessert because we were full and planned on having dessert later that night, but the server insisted on serving it. It was very pretty and was presented to my husband, for his birthday. I loved our attentive server - she was great and really complimented our night. Overall, go for the experience and realize that the condo-owners of the same building take the elevator to this restaurant, so it often is busy. I just can't figure out how they'd go often, given the limited menu of this and their other restaurant in the building - I bet the convenience lures them.

I was recently in South Florida and I was looking for an upscale spot in Fort Lauderdale to get some lunch. I took a flyer on Evelyn's based on their social media. I understand that sometimes the curated versions of a restaurant and their food on social media can be misleading, but this not the case for Evelyn's. The food and my experience were excellent. First, the service was excellent. I was greeted immediately when I entered, and hostess asked for name so the staff could address me by my name. The hostess fulfilled my request for a seat outside. My waiter was nice, efficient and very pleasant. I liked that he was attentive, but gave me space to eat. One minor issue is that my water could have been filled more often. Second, the food was delicious. I took advantage of their prix fix menu. I ordered the za'atar kale caesar as a starter, pomegranate glazed ora king salmon as my main and riz di hakeem as my dessert. I'm not a huge kale fan, but the za'atar made it delicious. The salmon was cooked perfectly to my instructions and the rice pudding was one of the most delicious I've ever had. As expected, the this meal was not cheap. The prix fix menu was $50, but I felt i got my money's worth as it would much more expensive to order these items al a cart. This just the price you will pay for this type of quality and service in this area. Third, the ambience was very good. I enjoyed their outdoor seating area and the interior is elegant, but approachable. In sum, this place is a must visit.

We had a special occasion coming up to celebrate at a special venue. My wife found Evelyn's, a local restaurant located in the Four Seasons hotel on Ft Lauderdale Beach. Being on the 3rd floor of the hotel, they have valet parking if you can't find street parking nearby and the restaurant does validate for $5 off, (still pricey valet service). We were seated at our reserved table with a view of the ocean and the pool deck. Our server immediately brought over glasses of a Lebanese sparkling rose to celebrate our anniversary. Next we received an amuse bouche of a sweet date with pomegranate seeds and goat cheese inside. (I could make a meal out of these!) Service was impeccable throughout our entire meal! A very interesting menu of many dishes which made it difficult to choose, but we finally decided to go with the Large Beef Tagine and added an order of Harra Potatoes. The tagine was served after we had enjoyed a nice peach fatoush salad. The tagine presentation was wonderful and contained large tender beef short rib on top of a delicious grain base. The beef short rib was delicious and plenty large enough for two to share. The Tropical Fruit Pavlova, my choice for dessert, included Passion Fruit with fruit mixed over a wonderful sorbet. My wife went with the Dark Chocolate Pave which she enjoyed while I savored every bite of my dessert. A truly great dining experience and we look forward to returning to try some of the seafood and lamb dishes they offer here at Evelyn's!

Food and cocktails were absolutely delicious. Our waitress was super nice and patient. The phone reception is not the best but the place itself is beautiful right by the pool.

We came for our anniversary based on a recommendation by Mike Mayo, former food writer for the Sun-Sentinel. We've been to a lot of places locally and were looking for some place new and upscale to celebrate. The restaurant is located on the third floor of the Four Seasons hotel which is in Fort Lauderdale across from the beach. They have valet parking at the hotel. And they do validate ($5 off) for the restaurant, and the only negative was that this costs about $25 plus tip even after the discount. We didn't find this out until after we'd dined, and luckily the excellence of the dining experience took some of the sting out of this additional cost. The restaurant gives you a view of the pool area and the ocean beyond. It was a bit busy here on a Saturday evening. That being said, we had very good service. We were directed to our table (they said happy anniversary as we checked in at the hostess stand) which was a nice booth right by the window. We were comped a glass each of sparkling rose wine from Lebanon, as an anniversary gift. We then received an amuse bouche. This was a sweet date stuffed with creamy goat cheese and topped with a few pomegranate seeds. After looking over the intriguing menu, we decided to have their peach fatoush salad. It was delivered in a small bowl with peach slices and watermelon radish slices on top. The colorful salad had tiny pieces of crispy pita, lettuce, tomatoes, dill, and pomegranate -- all in a light vinaigrette dressing. It was very good, big enough to share, and a nice starter. For our main meal, we chose one of the sharing large plate entrees -- their beef tagine. And added a side of harra potatoes. The entree was served in the traditional tagine shaped dish and dramatically opened. Inside was the tenderest, huge, beef short rib. The fall off the bone (there was one very large bone) meat was atop a grain called freekeh. I'd never heard of this one, but it reminded us of quinoa. Absolutely delicious! We couldn't believe that the side dish of potatoes was equally as fantastic. Probably the best potatoes I've had. The description says these are spicy but actually they are spiced with garlic and cilantro, and I think (though not mentioned) harissa. They are thinly sliced but kept together in large cubes. The cubes are then crisped in oil. I'm probably not doing a good enough description. Suffice it to say get these as a side dish. As it was a "celebration", we just had to order dessert. My husband's favorite flavor, passion fruit, was in the description of the tropical fruit pavlova so he was sold. The fruits mixed well together over a center of creamy sorbet. I'm more of a chocolate person, so I chose the dark chocolate pave. This was rich and satisfying. Another creative dish, it had a cookie like short bread bottom layer topped with ganache and a touch of sea salt. There was shaved bits of halva on the top. We were extremely happy with our entire meal. There were a number of other items that we considered -- like their lamb and the salmon. And even their beef skewers. We saw several tables get the whole branzino -- which they presented then deboned, etc., and plated table side. If you're looking to celebrate any occasion, I'd highly recommend this place. It's not overly fancy -- as there are hotel guests dressed casually as well as a few families mixed in. And it's a bit noisy. The food is the star here. Come and treat yourself.

The food, service, and ambiance are next level. The food was top tier. As soon as I had this I said that's it been a long time since I had food that was this good! We were staying at the four seasons and couldn't stop coming back for more. The experience and quality of the food was out of this world!!! If you're thinking about going here just DO IT. We tasted the shawarma, fatoush pear salad which was the freshest ever, the burgers were juicy and delicious, along with the eggs Benedict another favorite. Love love loveeee this place. I'll be back again

Great location. Nice and peaceful environment. Service was great. Everything we ordered tasted good but nothing out of this world great. I think the staff talk up the food too much increasing experience expectations but at the end you receive a decent food that tastes average at its price range. PS: I wouldn't have cared if I wasn't pregnant but since I am, I have to mention: don't serve a pregnant woman raw sesame seeds. There was a weird obsession over sesame seeds. A lot of items were served in raw sesame seeds, which is a risk of salmonella.

Thanksgiving dinner at Evelyn's felt like eating at grandmas house. The food was prepared and seasoned perfectly but not overdone. The food felt light and not to heavy. The dessert was just ok..except for the pumpkin spice pie. Yummm that was the best. I enjoyed the Mediterranean flair!! The service was excellent of course, well it is Four Seasons. The menu was not clear..I didn't realize the bottomless champagne was NOT included in the price of the buffet. I sat outside near the pool and the views were incredible!! Looking forward to the next holiday there

As a Syrian immigrant I felt like I was back home at Evelyn's. So many rich flavors and delicious combinations I was mind blown at the authenticity of every bite! the presentation alone was a major wow factor The service was great, I have read other reviews on it being bad but be mindful that when you go anywhere at its peak hours, things will naturally be delayed. The ambiance is beautiful and very perfect for a date night. I absolutely recommend this place, just know it will cost a pretty penny.

Evelyn's Fort Lauderdale is located on the third floor of the Four Seasons Hotel and Residences on A-1-A. It's a big restaurant done with eye appealing stylish modern décor. Just being on the beach across from A-1-A, it offers spectacular ocean views. For dining, there are three seating areas. There is the main indoor dining area. Then, there is a covered outdoor area. Also, umbrella table areas around the swimming pool. It has breakfast, lunch, and dinner menus along with a special Sunday Brunch menu. All the menus are very complete with delicious unique offerings such as their Smoked Eggplant Spread comprised of rose petals, pistachio, mint, and eggplant caramel. For my meal, I chose their Australian Wagyu date barbecue with a red chili shug. The date and chili paired perfectly with the rich meaty flavors of the Wagyu beef, a unique delicious dish. And when served it came served upon a grill into which they had poured liquid CO2, producing a smoke-like beautiful presentation. My partner had their pomegranate glazed Ora salmon with a pomegranate-tomato salsa, which both looked and tasted delicious. As the food was great, the service was exceptional and the atmosphere was delightfully impressive I'm going Five Stars on Evelyn's Fort Lauderdale.

Bottom line: Blah. We gave this restaurant several chances but ugh. Food: Tried everything from the "bagel" and butter that was so hard you can't spread it to the short ribs for dinner. Short ribs- slimy and too fatty. Couscous- dry and undercooked. Even at the pool we tried to share a burger and they forgot to spilt it. Mess after mess and definitely not up to our Four Season Standards. Service: Our first waiter was great and our last waiter at the pool were both amazing! The guy at the pool did everything he could. He was definitely what we are used to considering that we frequently stay at Four Season properties. Ambiance: The restaurant itself is very well decorated and it's not very loud at all. Again our first waiter was great and he even got me a light wrap (pashmina) since it was chilly in the restaurant. The two stars are for the amazing staff. Thanks!

This restaurant deserves 5 stars all around. Impeccable views, great service and delicious food, what is not to love. We started the night with some drinks, I had a spicy margarita and my best friends had a martini and one of their signature cocktails- the plantation punch. All were perfectly crafted. For starters we had their classic hummus with pita and the pumpkin soup. The hummus was already amazing but then our waiter brought over a hot sauce and encouraged us to try a drop and mix it into our hummus on our plate- game changer. Our entrees were equally as delicious, if not more so, we had the Australian wagyu beef skewers (2) which arrived on a fun presentation. Definitely recommend this dish! And finally, my favorite part of every meal- dessert. We tried their cardamom doughnuts and tropical fruit pavlova. I couldn't pick a favorite. Our waiter then overheard me say it was my birthday and he brought us a delicious crème brûlée. Overall, amazing food and service. This restaurant may have just easily climbed up to my top 5 favorites.

What a wonderful night out! Know before you go that this is fine dining in a comfortable atmosphere which means it's not fancy but it is pricey. We were seated by the windows where we overlooked the pool, and in the distance, the ocean. Our server, Plamen, was over in a flash welcoming us to the restaurant and taking our drink orders. Honestly, he made our evening perfect with his personable style, helpful suggestions and outstanding service which was attentive but never overbearing or forced. The drinks were lovely and my dining companion's old fashioned came with the signature 4 seasons logo stamped in the ice. Plamen helped us to take the "perfect picture of our drinks" and then offered to take our picture as well. Loved that! Even though there were only 2 of us- we decided to double the shellfish tower so that there was plenty to go around of shrimp, oysters, lobster and tuna. It was the highlight of my evening and at the price of $195 for the double tower, it was so worth it! Evelyn's is a mediterranean tapas restaurant meant for sharing, so Plamen suggested we share a range of offerings to taste a little of this and that. So we did. We had the octopus, lambchops, wagyu beef skewer (I won't ruin the surprise but the presentation is lovely) and the bata harra potatoes. All were tasty, although, and I knew this before I ordered, the lamb chops had an odd consistency for me. I like them medium rare and grilled. Plamen explained that they use the "sous vide" method which means they are boiled and he couldn't guarantee the cook level so in my opinion they were just okay but that's a personal preference thing. I think when we go again I'd like to try some of the various spreads that they have as the table next to us had that and they looked delicious. I also learned that they change the menu seasonally so there may be different foods available when you go. If you drive- you can valet at the Four Seasons. Be sure to get it validated at the restaurant. The restaurant is also a little tricky to find as once you leave the valet you need to go up in the elevator to the third floor and walk east toward the ocean. Now here's a tidbit for those who love history- the restaurant is named after Evelyn Bartlett who was a noted Fort Lauderdale women from the 1930's and you can actually tour her home, The Bonnet House, which is located on the ocean just north of her namesake restaurant. She collected art and was foundational to Fort Lauderdale's history. More on that in my Bonnet house review. A beautiful night out all the way around!

Lighting was amazing. I was able to find gluten free options it is great for events or family/friends visits! Close beach.

It's in the Four Seasons so of course it is beautiful. There is currently some construction so it was a bit confusing to try to navigate our way up to the restaurant but if you head to the front desk and ask they'll direct you. My partner and I stopped by on a Saturday afternoon for lunch. We were sat down immediately without a reservation. It was really slow to be acknowledged or get menus. Service was honestly really slow the entire time... what we hoped would be a quick lunch turned into 2 hours and if the service were better it could have easily been 45 minutes. For food, I tried the Chicken Shwarma Wrap which was really flavorful but REALLY dry. I got sweet potato fries on the side and they were cold, one was actually ice cold on the inside. My partner got the waygu beef skewer which was ridiculous in presentation (in a way that I loved) and it tasted delicious. We shared the roasted red pepper dip to start which was really nice. We did not try any alcoholic beverages and instead opted for soft drinks. Overall, I was kind of pissed to have spent $160 on a lunch that was pretty mediocre. The only redeeming qualities for me were the decor, beef skewer, and dip.

I took my husband there for his birthday this year and it was a delicious and luxurious experience. The price is high for Fort Lauderdale, but then it is sort of expected because it is a Four Seasons. Everything we ordered were delicious and we had enough for lunch for two days. The cuisine is middle eastern / Mediterranean and everything is well seasoned. The views and the service were immaculate.

First off the service is excellent, top notch. Our waiter was knowledgeable about everything on the menu and what the favorites were. Our water glasses were filled multiple times throughout dinner without us asking for more water. They have a Mediterranean menu, with an emphasis on Lebanese dishes. We started with the smoked red pepper dip, which is made with walnuts, and pomegranates and was delicious. It comes with freshly baked pita bread. I had the falafel, served with 3 side sauces. My friend had the kale salad which had a lot of cheese on top. The dressing on the salad was light and refreshing, I need to get the recipe. The carved pork was a popular dish as we saw a waiter bringing it over to tables and carving it tableside. The menu is changed every 3 months. Look forward to coming back to try some different dishes.

**Vegetarian Friendly** Absolutely delicious. Located on the third floor of the Four Seasons Hotel, the restaurant's ambiance is gorgeous with floor to ceiling windows overlooking the pool and ocean, and indoor and outdoor dining options. Our Order: Meal: (1) Charred Red Pepper Hummus with Fresh Pita, (2) Crispy Falafel, (3) Batata Harra Dessert: Cardamom Donuts Everything was flavorful and melted in your mouth. We're very big condiment people, so we ordered sides of - Key Lime Tzatziki - House Curried Ketchup - Sriracha Aioli - Hot Sauce - this is made in house, and was the exact spice we were looking for Everything was great from beginning to end - from service to food, the property, everything. I wish I could give them more stars! We'll be back with more people so we can taste more!

Possibly the worst food in the east Ft Lauderdale area, hugely overpriced, poorly cooked( octopus essentially inedible d/t over charring), swordfish had zero seasoning and/or taste, ruined wagyu beef with various intolerable sauces. Brussel sprouts were decent as was the chicken. Seafood tower lacking freshness.

The day we went to Evelyns there was a crazy and unexpected wind storm; felt we would blow away and Evelyns is on the pool floor so we decided indoor dining would be the better choice. Went in for a late lunch and were hoping to try the pumpkin soup but the waitress said it was only for dinner, even though dinner was opening up within the next hour. We were bummed but made the best of it and went with whatever the lunch offerings were on the menu. Food did not disappoint. Thoroughly enjoyed our lunch. I prefer the original pavlovas with strawberry to the one at Evelyns only because there was something frozen in the middle of this one that threw me off. Waitress said it was supposed to be that way...maybe a sorbet in the middle or something??? Not my preference, but still okay. Overall, a great lunch.

Always outstanding food and service. The yoghurt chicken amazes. Expensive but perfect.

Have been wanting to go there since it opened, well we finally did, and decided to go for a small plates/tapas meal for the Grand Mezze, which we shared. It was a wonderful surprise with the spreads, small vegetables, pickled vegetables and fresh pita bread. Of course looking at the rest of menu was tempting too, so we ordered the sumac fries with the curried ketchup. They were so good with the spreads too! We had a few more dishes and thoroughly enjoyed the meal. Ordered the Pavlova for dessert and took it home. Refrigerated it until the next night and WOW were we in for a surprise! It was one of the best desserts we have had in years!!! Top of the line flavor! Just beautiful! Carlton was our server, and we couldn't have been happier with his attentiveness. I asked if they were serving Thanksgiving dinner, and made a reservation for that too. We went. It was a meal with a Mediterranean middle eastern twist to it. What a feast it was! Everything was delicious and served beautifully. This restaurant is comfortable and at ease. It is a hidden gem, don't know how we hadn't been there before. This is my new favorite restaurant in Fort Lauderdale, by far.

Love this space, both the indoor and outdoor dining areas are so nice, fabulous decor, right on theme for the style of food. Outdoor space has plenty of natural ventilation and shade. Great view of the ocean too! The menu is a mix of seafood and Mediterranean options, it's quite a diverse offering, should have something for everyone. The vegetarian options are noteworthy; however, the burger is a black bean patty. The drink menu is fantastic, many regular and seasonal cocktail options. The wine list is extensive and diverse. The service is top tier, the restaurant is in the Four Seasons hotel, so service levels are super premium. Be prepared pricing is also super premium, but the atmosphere, food and drinks are well worth the price.

We came to Evelyn's with a 2:30 reservation for lunch. However when we got there we were informed that the kitchen was closed to prepare for dinner and only the bar menu was available. That should have been informed to us when we called. We decided to stay and have some appetizers and mimosas. Our food was delicious. We got pitas, which were so pillowy and delicious with hummus and baba ghanoush. We also ordered falafel and fries. Everything was fresh and the falafel was one of the best I've had. Service was exceptional, but at this price point is to be expected. The view was also amazing and the restaurant feels very cozy and homey. Great place. I only wished they'd told us about the kitchen situation. I'll have to come back for dinner at some point.

A refreshing new taste for Fort Lauderdale beach! I was pleasantly surprised and equally blown away with Evelyn's middle Eastern/Mediterranean take on classics. The saffron lobster roll was delicious and paired well with the sumac fries but the cremè brûlée stole the show! I'll be dreaming about it until I can get back to Evelyn's. In addition the service was superb and in line with what you would expect of Four Seasons. The space itself was welcoming and comfortable, offering both indoor and outdoor seating. If you're looking for an upscale experience in Fort Lauderdale beach Evelyn's does not dissapoint!

Evelyn's is a hidden gem located in the Four Seasons. It's an intimate setting with beautiful ocean views. The food is incredible! We tried almost every spread and the presentation was beautiful. The truffle hummus was by far my favorite thing. I also love that they have an everything bagel with hummus on the menu. Sounds odd initially but it was amazing. We also tried the wagyu beef skewers which were great. The service was also great. The waiter was constantly making sure we had everything we needed. Definitely a must try!

It's a great experience. The ambiance is very welcoming and charming. Amazing food and service. Staff are extremely knowledgeable and make great recommendations. Cold soup is to die for ;)

Evelyn's in the Four Seasons is top notch and like the resort, is first class. The restaurant is located on the 3rd floor and is beautiful. I look forward to returning very soon!

Simply amazing. The restaurant itself is beautiful, with windows over looking the pool, which overlooks the ocean. It was raining on our visit, but even still, gorgeous views. The service was spectacular, the drinks tasty and the food was divine. We started with the grand mezze which comes with an assortment of spreads, pickled vegetables and pita bread. We upgraded the hummus to truffle hummus, GAME CHANGER. Scratch that, LIFE changer. That was a lot of food, so were getting full off that. We finished things off with a wagyu skewer, the octopus and a side of potatoes. The wagyu was delicious and the octopus was less charred than I usually prefer, but it was accompanied by a smokey carrot puree which sealed the deal. For drinks we had dirty martinis with stuffed bleu cheese olives and they were magnificent, along with the espresso martini. I will definitely be back.

Excellent food, service and ambiance. We saw some of the reviews about avoiding the $30 valet so we parked in the street for $8. My only complaint was a kid literally rode his tricycle through the restaurant to their family's table. Maybe I'm becoming a grumpy old man.

Top notch food and dining experience. We did a family style meal. Great truffle hummus and house made pita (part of a must have appetizer plate,) kale salad, beef tagine, squash and feta, swordfish skewers, lemon roasted chicken and brussel sprouts..all fantastic. Still thinking about the brussel sprouts. Service was attentive, a little extra, but appreciated.

Food and service amazing. Beautiful view and top notch treatment. Would return back again!

My daughter took my wife and I to Evelyn's for my birthday. It was the best meal I have had in 2023. First I had a drink at the bar. My usual Perfect Manhattan on the rock. Jose the bartender mixed the equal parts sweet and dry vermouths over an Angels Envy Rye. Served with a large rock of ice it was smooth, delicious and PERFECT. Next we sat down to dinner and we had a Rose with caviar in the middle, Labneh with such beautiful house made Pita. Soft and herb crusted. We enjoyed some smoked eggplant which had pomegranate over the top. Next we're the small plates of olive wood smoked octopus that was grilled to perfection. Not too soft and no too well done. Goldilocks Octopus. Just right. We also enjoyed beef that was on a grilled that was doused with rose water dry ice. Really tasty. Our Brussels sprouts were charred to perfection. Not burnt, just crispy. For my birthday dessert they presented an signed plate of tropical fruit pavlova with the mango just oozing out and a Dark Chocolate Oave that was rich and deeply satisfying. It was a truly wonderful experience enhanced by our gracious Bulgarian server. It was a dinner to savor for the rest of the year.

I can't express how much my wife and I enjoyed this restaurant. This was a new dining experience for us and it did not disappoint. From the presentation to the flavors, everything was amazing! The chef came out to talk to our party afterward and was so informative with the different ingredients and how certain dishes are prepared. Would absolutely come back again!

Located off pool deck at The Four Seasons hotel, there are fab views and lush surroundings. great place for lunch or dinner. Seafood specialties and red meat dishes for a wide range of taste. Excellent mixologist with a stellar selection of great rums and bourbons. My fav the waygu beef tenderloins or the fantastic waygu hamburger !

A perfect night out. Took my girlfriend out for her birthday and was extremely impressed by the ambiance, food, and out server (his name started with P - but cant remember the whole name). The only dish we did not love was the falafel, but were pleasantly impressed by the vegetable entree. Cant wait to go back for dessert.

A MUST VISIT for locals, vacationers, or anyone who wants a 5-star dining experience with some of the best Mediterranean food you'll ever have! I cannot say enough wonderful things about this restaurant! Chef Brandon and Chef Beto's culinary artistry played like a beautiful symphony on your palate. Each dish was deliciously unique and tastefully accented by everything from saffron and pistachio to fresh cilantro and rose petals. (Check out the menu pic to see all the delicious dishes we were able to sample.) If you love hot sauce, you MUST try Chef Brandon's which varies in flavor depending upon what is able to be sourced locally so it's supremely fresh and unique! I had the pleasure of accompanying of my travel agent friend to this culinary journey during our dinner which was graciously hosted by Ms. Julie Burstein of the Four Seasons. A few of my faves were the Olive Wood Smoked Octopus, Wagyu Beef Kibbeh with Keylime Tzatziki, Grilled Whole Branzino, Batta Harra, ALL of the Grand Mezze. The food was outstanding and the service was equally spectacular - Friendly and attentive, but not overbearing. José (bartender) made some excellent suggestions from their custom cocktails. Our server, Carlton, and his assistant servers, Alejandra and Brenda kept our wine and sparkling water glasses full and cleared our plates promptly to make space for the next round of the Chefs' creations. The ambience, the cuisine, the service, and the company made this one of the best dining experiences I've had in South Florida in quite some time. A huge thanks to Ms. Burstein, Jack (manager) and Chef Brandon for a wonderful, memorable dining experience. Looking forward to visiting again soon!

What a disappointment. I had been here before and today was my brother-in-law's anniversary. The service was beyond appalling and the food sub par. The restaurant is beautiful and understated with a gorgeous view. I would never recommend brunch here. Lunch and dinner are fine.

Was a nice ambiance, the service was good, the was okay but it was definitely overpriced for no special reason.

The service is the most outstanding part. Consistently excellent no matter the day or meal. We were treated like royalty. We also enjoyed the ambience of both outdoor and indoor seating. The breakfast buffet is great; solid options. Loved the smoothies, too! The meals from the kitchen were a solid good, but we weren't blown away. We typically love Mediterranean cuisine but these flavors were just a bit off for us.

Evelyn's at Four Seasons: you win!! The service=perfection, the food=made with love and care, the atmosphere=relaxing. We went for lunch for my moms birthday and they did not disappoint. We started off with the Truffle Hummus and home made pita. The pita was freshly baked, served right out of the oven and on a warm plate. The hummus was light, creamy but firm and the olive oil tasted almost freshly pressed. Add on some truffle mushrooms and heaven awaits you. There's a reason this is one of their most recommended and popular dishes. It's a must have. If you don't like mushrooms, try the classic. It's just as good. Let's keep going because we kept our tastebuds busy. Next up was the Australian Wagyu Beef with table side presentation and Evelyn's burger served with sweet potato fries. C'mon now! Tender, perfectly cooked and delicious. Before I get to dessert, I absolutely have to give a shout out to our server Akash and Assistant Server, Stephanie. They really made my mom feel like a queen and I may have Gad some Tiara vibes myself. Attentive, kind. Ready to answer any questions and just truly good humans that take pride in what they do. Ok,ok, let's talk dessert....one word Pavlova. Not just any Pavlova but a Mango Guava Pavlova with a guava sorbet center. Say Whaaaaaaaa!?! That's right. This is a definitely a great spot for a special occasion or a special treat. We'll be back...and next time, we try the spa as well. Well done!

Throughly enjoyed our lunch at Evelyn's. Went out of their way to make our young boys feel included in the lavish meal. Not sure we'd return to Ft Lauderdale, but if we do, we'll be sure to stop by again.

first off, the hotel lobby is gorgeous. this also follows into the restaurant. Evelyn's has a great romantic ambiance that is very coastal chic. the drinks were very well done, recommend The Stipulation. The food was also A+. Wagyu skewers, smoked eggplant, veggie skewer, as well as the potatoes were all fantastic. Service was exceptional as well and he was very attentive at guiding us thru the experience. Will definitely be back to try some of the other menu options :)

Gorgeous views with great food and service! A must to sit outside to get the sunset views. The drinks were unique and tasty. We ordered the octopus, burrata, and whole branzino which was filleted table side. Each dish was better than the last. The servers did a great job making sure we had enough water and our food was paced appropriately. Would recommend for a date night or celebration!

On a "foodie" trip through eastern Florida, my wife and I wanted to try Evelyn's. Being in the Four Seasons Resort, we figured it had to be pretty good. And that it was. Yes, there's room for improvement, but it earned 4 solid stars for me. Of the dishes we tried, the Wagyu skewers were our favorite. Nice and juicy, tender and the middle eastern spices (date BBQ sauce) were fantastic. I detected a welcome smoke flavor from the grill too. It was served table side in a tray with dry ice. Then the server poured water in the tray to create a "smoke" like effect. For me, this was unnecessary and diminished the overall presentation. It came off as contrived and silly. Then as a side, we got the broccolini. Now, I usually don't get excited for a vegetable, but this dish was really good and it complemented the beef perfectly. The environment was welcoming (we ate outside) and the staff very attentive. Trust...

Beautiful restaurant with excellent service. Great place to celebrate or have a romantic dinner. The staff made the experience. Truffle hummus was by far my favorite.

I had the most Amazing brunch here a couple days ago. From start the finish the service was great and it was not too busy at all. Unusual for the food to take time to arrive but our server was just the most agreeable. I had the smoked salmon with the in-house whipped dill infused butter on an everything bagel. Wish the bagel was a bit more fresh and easier to eat but it's fine. The restaurant itself is very clean I love the aesthetic and it was such a beautiful sunny morning the room was so well lit. Overall I had a great time and I will be going back.

One of the best waiters I've ever encountered! I wish I could remember his name, but he was stellar. Truly made the whole experience. We ordered a ton of food and everything was great!
