Laudy Bar - Craft Kitchen & Cocktails

I came during lunch time. It was nice pretty empty so seating was available. I sat at the bar. The bartender was super nice and attentive. My drink stayed full during my visit. The vibe is nice. The artwork is different but cool. I got the goat salad with blackened chicken, it was good. There is street parking but it is pay to park.

Looks great, but its looks are its strongest suit. Reminds me of a beautiful woman with no brain. As long as you don’t expect anything interesting and just want to enjoy the aesthetic, this place is adequate. The prices, however, are monstrous. $20 for a cheeseburger is a rip off.

The food and atmosphere are amazing. Page our server was great. This will definitely be added to my rotation.

A very nice and dimly lit restaurant. The interior is aesthetically pleasing with an old school feeling. A little hard to find but worth it. The food and drinks are exceptional.

This place is epic!!! Deliciousness for sure!!! Lamb lollipops, truffle Mac & cheese with bacon, burrata salad so yummy! Service and atmosphere excellent!!! Bravo!!!!

Laudy Bar is such a great addition to Flagler Village. It’s got this effortlessly cool vibe—stylish without trying too hard—and the team there is always so lovely. The bartenders are welcoming and know their stuff, which makes the whole experience even better. And let’s talk about the food—absolutely delicious. Creative, flavorful, and consistently impressive. Every time I go, I leave already thinking about what I’ll order next time. If you haven’t checked it out yet, go. Whether you’re grabbing a drink or settling in for a full meal, it’s a place you’ll want to come back to again and again.

Oh my God! That ribeye hit the spot 🫠. And the carrot cake 🤤 had to save some for later. it's unacceptable to have all that awesome at once. Enjoyed the food, music and staff. Thank you Claudia for an amazing service.

Continuing my birthday celebration at Laudy Bar - Craft Kitchen and Cocktails was an absolute delight! The service was unmatched, with attentive staff ensuring every moment was special. The food was incredible; I tried the fried avocado taco, short rib, and lollipop lamb chops, and they were truly to die for. Visiting on a Tuesday allowed me to enjoy their taco specials, which are a must-try. Overall, Laudy Bar is a must-visit restaurant for anyone looking for a memorable dining experience. The atmosphere, combined with the exceptional cuisine, makes it a standout in Fort Lauderdale.

Solid brunch spot in Fort Lauderdale. I came on a Sunday to support my Fiancé performing for the Sunday brunch and found the place to be super spacious and inviting. The staff was really friendly as well. As noon started to roll in the place started filling up and I ordered a couple things to try. The fish dip (I believe is local) was really fresh and delicious and I ordered the Lamb lollipops which are apparently pretty popular here. The lamb was perfectly cooked and flavored so I understand why it's the favorite! Overall great food, vibes and experience

Found "Here & Now" with raving reviews. The menu has some great options and photos of the food looked really good so had to give it a try. The restaurant was busy and had live music playing. Service was okay, there were a few times when the server seemed lost while coming to our table with a dish we already received. We looked at the menu and ordered a few items such as the Brussels sprouts, truffle fries, pulled pork tacos, braised short rib. The food came out looking delicious, but we found the dishes rather bland. The Brussels sprouts were good, but very oily. The truffle fries were okay. Nothing too special for the pulled pork tacos and the braised short rib was extremely bland. Couldn't even taste the salt and it was very tough to chew. Maybe we didn't order the most popular dishes, or maybe it was an off night for the kitchen. Not too sure what it was but overall, a mediocre meal.

First time at Here & Now since the new owners came in. We were promptly greeted and seated without any wait (we had a reservation) by the fabulous Quinton a.k.a. Q. He gave us me us and then gave us a few moments. He came back and took our drink orders. We had the Mango Mimosas, Wine Spritzer and a Stella. The drinks came out quickly and were delicious. Q even brought a side of 7-up for the spritzer in case we wanted it a little sweeter bc it's better than sugars and syrup. We couldn't agree more. The place is charming with trendy and simplistically sophisticated decor. It is minimalistic but offers clean lines and a cozy atmosphere. The chairs were amazing and really great for our 87 year old friend from a comfort perspective. Let's talk food. Looking at the prices, I initially thought they were a bit much for appetizers BUT when the portions came out, it all made sense. The appetizers are shareable and made for 2-3 easily. We had the spinach artichoke dip, the grilled peach burrata (my personal favorite), and the Caesar salad. These are all meals in themselves and we enjoyed them thoroughly. Next time I will take Q's suggestion and add the prosciutto to the burrata but it was amazing as is. The music in the background is light and classic pop and RnB and was delightful. They also had sports and news etc on the varying TVs. But I digress...let's keep going with the food. Two out of our part of 4 ordered the Chorizo Fritas. We are Cuban and the Fritas were ON POINT. You get three sliders filled with pork, chorizo, onions. potato stix and a guava BBQ sauce that is amazing. You have a choice of seasoned fries, truffle fries, or sweet potato waffle fries. It doesn't matter. Pick your favorite because they are all delicious. The truffle fries were my favorite as they were crispy wedge/chip like deliciousness on a plate. I had the Buffalo chicken wrap. It's got just the right amount of kick and is refreshing and amazing light considering it's breaded chicken. Our last guest had the Caprese sandwich and he couldn't get enough of the fresh chibatta, mozzarella and tomato. The sandwiches are HUGE and we couldn't have been happier. For dessert, we had the chocolate chip cookie, brownie sundae. Again, amazing. One person in our party is not a brownie aficionado and she couldn't help but go back for seconds and thirds. The brownie was creamy and chocolate it and just a great combo with the cookie and ice cream. Turns out they also have local live entertainment starting at 70 Thursday- Saturday and starting at 12pm for brunch on Sunday. Brunch is served everyday with bottomless mimosas and the brunch menu is amazing and has the perfect variety with offerings for everyone. We will definitely be back to this wonderful treasure located in Fat Village. Special thanks to Q for his amazing service, attention to detail, and recommendations. Cheers to continued success!

Sunday around noon, my BF said he was taking me to brunch. When he put the address on his GPS I realized I had Here & Now bookmarked too and was excited to finally try it. He remembers he bookmarked it because they have live music, and they did. A few minutes after we arrived, the girl went to the microphone and started singing a nice set of R&B songs. The place got busy after we arrived, and everyone was enjoying her set and the food. The bar was wide open so we sat there and immediately got menus and waters. Our server was very nice, and quick. To start I had a coffee, and then got a Lucky 7 from their "Originals" cocktails list. My BF got a Cheeky Fox and we both agreed these were perfect summer drinks.... Flavorful and very refreshing. Our server recommended the Spinach & Artichoke dip as a starter and SO gad we listened. This was amazing! We could not stop eating it, even though we tried because we had full meals coming up. But, no regrets! As my meal I had their breakfast burger with truffle fries. Burger was cooked as ordered, perfectly melted cheese, and egg. Truffle fries were SO good. Everything here was perfect, and we ended up having leftovers to enjoy later. Right after we met some friends and we could not stop telling them about the great experience we had. Can't wait to go back!

5 stars all around again on the second visit this past weekend for brunch. Great service with intimate embience, and fantastically good food. 5 star ambience: it hard to find a quiet relaxed spot in Flagler Village these days, but this spot along a leafy side street near the railroad is terrific inside and out. 5 star service: from check in desk to sever and bar, all were perfect and friendly 5 star food: a really great sandwich with sweet potato side. I loved it

Stopped in here for a quick dinner. Happy hour appetizers were available until 8p so I started with them spinach dip. It was delicious. Full of flavor with thick layer of melted cheese on top. I ordered the wedge salad with salmon. The salmon was seasoned very well and had a sauce drizzled on top. The salad was fresh and paired well with the salmon! The bartender was attentive and friendly.

Love this place! Hidden away in Flagler Village this is a brunch gem. We had a huge party about 20 people to celebrate my son's communion. They were awesome and the food was yummy. I got the shrimp n grits and they were a big contender in the top 3 shrimp n grits that I have had. All you can drink mimosas and bloodys mix n match. We met the owner and they were super nice. Definitely my new brunch spot after church. Did I mention live music!!!!

My friends and I really loved this place! We came for dinner on a Friday night, the food and vibes were great! There was live music and just a cool atmosphere overall. The peach burrata was amazing, definitely would get again. I also got the baked wings, which is a good gluten free option. Great spot for a date night. They have a great happy hour as well.

Decided to check out this place on a whim. It was truly amazing. From the ambience to the service and of course the food! To start this restaurant is so cute. It's spacious and the servers are so nice. I tried the meatball appetizer which was so tasty and the bread that came with it was toasted but still soft in the middle We had the truffle Mac and cheese with sausage, I will say I didn't taste any truffle but aside from that it was super flavorful. we also had the chorizo frita sandwich which was sooo good! The bread was soft and just baked, the pulled pork was well seasoned and I will say the sausage was a bit spicy. I also had an espresso martini which was so good. And closed it off with the brownie cookie sundae which honestly I would come back for again and again. It's just the perfect thing. All in all I can't complain and will definitely be coming back to try other menu items.

A friend and I came on a whim from another bar about half an hour before they closed. We were able to get our food order in pretty quickly and got a drink while waiting. I've only been here twice before, for drinks, and I can say the drinks have always been very good. We got our food and I have to say it was a great portion and delicious. I'm glad my friend and I didn't share the Mac n cheese because I think that's the best thing on their menu. I got a BIG harvest salad, and my friend, who is a picky eater, got the wings, and she loves them

Wow! Here and now is such a hidden gem in Fort Lauderdale. I've been to the wine shop across the street so many times but this is the first time I've stumbled into this bar and it's so much more than just a great cocktail. We went to the bar and Madison greeted me with the biggest smile and made me a fantastic old fashioned. The bar has a nice design and the kitchen was half open for you to see and smell. I decided to order a dish from the menu and the truffle Mac and cheese with bits of chorizo was absolutely amazing. I had such a good time talking to her and other people at the bar that I decided to try the monthly special "gin n roses" and I ended up having 2 of them. I'm going to come back as soon as I can, I hope this becomes a mainstay of Fort Lauderdale.

Really great for large groups. We had a group of 9 come in Saturday night last minute and they were very accommodating. The service was very good and they split the checks for us without a problem which was convenient. I had the lamb chops which were flavorful and a tried the burger. I think the food was decent, but I'd probably go back for drinks and the atmosphere.

Absolutely amazing! I've been meaning to try this place for a while and it was well worth it. Food was delicious (we tried lamb lollipops, scallops and street corn ), cocktails were mixed perfectly, and live entertainment as well. We will definitely be back!

Went for Happy Hour with two friends. Great prices for food and drinks. The food items we ordered were all delicious - the best Brussel sprouts up to now. The bartender was very nice and attentive. We got there early and it was a little empty.

So my best fiend and I went here and she saw great reviews on tik tok. Let's just say I'm happy I said make those reservations. Once arriving we were greeted and immediately seated, ask us where we would like to sit and the place was spacious. I love the decor and atmosphere of the place felt great. The waiter was so nice and patient with us as we did not know what we wanted. So the drinks we wanted wasn't available as they ran out but want bad because margaritas always makes things better. We had doubles Now our appetizer was spinach artichoke dip which was amazing Alan's chips were very crisp and seasoned. Entree my best friend had the marinated leg quarters with corn and rice. I had some of her rice it was delicious. For me now my salmon Omg was so good and delicious and yes you say it's salmon but they way it was seasoned and grilled baby. Those veggies were treated and cooked with love and rice was not gummy. I didn't eat it all and my husband had the rest btw he loved it. So I will be back soon

From the moment we walked in the door we loved our experience at Here and Now! Everyone was friendly, attentive and knowledgeable about the food and drinks and very accommodating to my gluten allergy! It's a beautiful place, with phenomenal food and drinks, and great live music! Highly recommend going!

Wanted to try a new spot for brunch and decided to try this spot out last Sunday! Cute location with music for brunch. We got there early, about an hour after opening so we were seated immediately Skipped out on appetizers since we were going for bigger meals. I had the Chorizo and Egg Wrap while my mom tried the H&N Burger. So the wrap was good but it was missing just a little something like a sauce. So I ordered a chipotle aioli sauce and it hit the spot. I would recommend something like that to be added to the wrap in the future. The burger was cooked to almost well done when my mom had ordered medium which was a bummer. It was good just not how it was ordered. All the portions were big ! We had asked the waiter what the sides were but was not sure, they ended up bringing out fries with it which were yummy. The best part of the meal was the dessert! We had the bread pudding. It was delicious!!! It came with two scoops of vanilla ice cream. I really almost ordered two. So good. The service was really good! The waiter was awesome despite being the only serving multiple tables at a time. So overall how was it? Good with some room for improvement. The wrap could use maybe a sauce but it could just be a preference? It was still yummy The burger was yummy , but was not cooked as asked, it could just not have been a good day for it. Dessert - was . So. Good. Service - really awesome! Service - 5 out of 5, really nice and attentive Food- 4 out of 5 , few little improvements Environment - 4 out of 5, music was good just a little loud for it being so early in the day but maybe as people drink bottomless mimosas they won't notice so much lol Order Chorizo and Egg Wrap H&N Burger Bread Pudding

I cannot make this up. This is by far the best food I have tasted in Fort Lauderdale. I am a big time foodie and I enjoy an eclectic experience. This is it! The service was outstanding, music was a vibe and the drinks were even more yummy. Didn't have dessert because it wouldn't fit. lol but this meal was shared and I left extremely satisfied.

Amazing food, great service, cool ambiance! In the area and found this great gem - lots of great food options. Highly recommend if you're in the area.

A hidden gem! Tucked away in Flagler Village, Here & Now is a solid happy hour or lets get carried away at dinner type of spot. We tried a bunch of different appetizers and the brussel sprouts were 100% as good as the look! The tacos, truffle fries and burrata were all tasty too, and great portions for sharing. Their drink menu is creative and you can't go wrong with anything on it! Service was pretty slow but I think we had a mixup between servers because we kept getting asked if we had gotten our order taken but nobody was coming over when we said we hadn't. Had to ask for a server a couple of times but we may have been an outlier for this

Pretty good food! My favorite was the Brussel sprouts. Lamb chops were just ok. Truffle Mac and chorizo was also really good. Drinks were really good also. A little pricey in my opinion for the quality.

Here and Now is one of my new favorite brunch spots!!!! Like everyone says in other reviews, it's definitely a hidden gem. The food and drinks here are amazing, not to mention I love the ambiance. It's not loud and busy like other brunch spots. It more has a chill, lights low lounge vibe. The service was also very good. Our server was very attentive and nice. Not to mention they're not over priced like other places and the portion size are generous!! I most definitely will be back soon.

Good food and service, but the music was so incredibly loud that it was hard to hear the person next to you.

What a hidden gem! We've spent plenty of time trying out the beach front options over the years, and we're always left less than impressed. On a whim we headed down town and found this spot hidden on a quiet street. Reviews were good, but our experience was exceptional. Every dish was spot on. Our family of 5 shared all the dishes. The Mac and cheese was so delicious we didn't have a chance to get a photo. Service was friendly and helpful without being pushy. I'd HIGHLY recommend!!! .... By the way photos don't do a justice!!

3/2/2023- Our party of 5 came in for drinks and dinner. The restaurant offered a happy hour all night. I met everyone for dinner after they had drinks at the bar. I ordered the Cheeky Fox, Hanson Habanero Vodka, St George Spiced Pear, Lemon & Fever Tree Pink Grape Fruit, $7. For dinner I had the Mojo Pulled Pork Tacos, Roasted Pork, served with cabbage, chipotle aioli, cotija cheese, radish, and cilantro on a corn tortilla, $16. It was a great portion for one person, they were very generous with the pork. One of the girls ordered the macaroni and cheese and I tried some and it was delicious. All the food portions were pretty big. Service was great. The restaurant has a good vibe and audience. I recommend it.

Not too sure how we feel about this place. It wasn't bad per se, but wasn't necessarily good. I guess it's good for drinks and some quick bites. When we went it was dead so ambiance was pretty quiet. Not sure if we would send anyone here

Great spot to go for some tapas and cocktails. They have an all-day happy hour on Sunday, which is awesome. The food and the drinks were equally delicious, the staff was super friendly, and the service was spot on. There's plenty of street parking available around the building, it's located in a quieter portion of Flagler village just off the path, so it's not filled with tourists. It is a very eclectic atmosphere, the décor is unique but it makes it very enjoyable. As for the food, I only had a few apps. I can't wait to go back and try some more! The truffle Mac and cheese was creamy and delicious, not overwhelming with the truffle. The wings were perfectly grilled topped with grilled onions and had a good amount of flavor. The mussels were also delicious, had a little kick, and had a nice spice. Such a good vibe I just wish I had tried this spot sooner. Great for date night or girl's night or even brunch!

Love this place ! Great for casual date and tapas . Service is quick also . I've been here several times and the bacon wrapped dates are my usual go to. Also, lamb lollipops are a must if you like lamb, dipping sauce has a little kick to it . Also got the peach burrata with prosciutto . The Brussels sprouts are def my favorite on the menu . Crunchy and savory ! The chicken parm sandwich wasn't a huge hit for me I felt like it was missing something but my boyfriend liked it . Overall, I'll always be back !

WHEEWWW! The HERB marinated wings are the BEST IN FORT LAUDERDALE. Point blank period! So the first time I came here and tried them, The flavor, tenderness and texture of the wings literally knocked my socks off. However, as a veteran foodie I also understand that sometimes a restaurant can get lucky and catch you at a time where you're just really hungry so the food can taste better than it really is,LOL. However, this isn't that at all. When the flavor is consistently good every time you visit a restaurant that's true skill and sign of a world renowned chef or well established cut and paste culinary blueprint! Previously I've also enjoyed the lamb chops as well. The truffle mac and cheese is very delicious with just the right balance of cheeses. I added shrimp and all I can say is Chef's Kiss. Treat yourself don't cheat yourself by skipping my recommendation to visit here and Now! You can thank me l8er!

Came on a Friday night looking for a chill vibe, a place to have a couple drinks, some small bites and a place to hang out with friends without the madness. Was pleasantly surprised with live music by Christopher Luv who was a ++ for the evening. Food was great, drinks were delicious and service was excellent. Restaurant was full while we were there but the atmosphere was just right. Can't wait to go again.

What a great place, and a great time, especially watching sports on their multiple TV's. Very good staff and very attentive

Ok. From NY. So take this as you want. We found this place to hang out before heading to Las Olas. Quintin the bartender is the nicest, sweetest, greatest and very good looking bar tender. Here and now is lucky you have him. I'm kinda of an ass when it comes to food in Florida but this place exceeded my expectations. So go, get the bone marrow and ask for Quintin. You are gonna thank me!

Such a beautiful atmosphere with some kickin food! Came here on a rainy evening, it was quiet and relaxed but started picking up. The table favorite was the lamb lollipops. The smoked king fish dip was also excellent but definitely don't miss out on the lamb.

BAIT AND SWITCH PRICES!!!!!!! Website prices are VERY DIFFERENT than in person prices, BE AWARE. Unlimited mimosas say $18 on their website, but when you get there and see the menu, it's $25. Other menu items are also +10$ difference between the website and in person. The place was dead for a Sunday brunch, and I wonder if this bait and switch is why. Server was attentive and nice at least, not his fault management likes to bait and switch their customers with price difference.

Great food Great waiters HOWEVER IF YOU Don't LIKE DOGS IN THE RESTAURANT, don't go. And if you do like dogs in the restaurant hopefully you will like them barking too. Then you'll be fine. Awesome decor 86 the dogs please

Value(price for quality) 4 Customer service 4 Freshness 5 Convenience 5 L2R (likely to return) 3 The lamb chops are worth the trip. However the chicken thighs and salmon was well prepared but didn't have much flavor. The service was good as well. If I do return I'll definitely get the lamb chops again but I would be choosing a different entree. Overall rating 4.2/5

While in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. We visited the here and now and it was amazing. This is probably one of the top casual bar/restaurants in the area. The atmosphere is nice and modern with great music playing while you enjoy your meal. The service was great, as soon as we walked in and were seated, the waiter immediately greeted us and gave us some suggestions. The drinks and food are great. These drinks are very balanced and refreshing on a hot Florida day. We shared Diavlo mussels, which were the best mussels I've had in a while. Our main course was a basic burger, but cooked to the perfect temperature. I would recommend this place to anyone in the Fort Lauderdale area

Awesome place to go, great bites, nice and calm atmosphere, good selection. Will defiantly be back for more. Service and attitudes all a plus, they took care of me and even made some astounding recommendations.

Has slowly become a local favorite because of its consistency. It's usually never packed, walk in and grab a seat. The service is very good and food is fast. The inside has a few TVs and some music playing. All around a very decent spot.

I love the vibe here. It's spacious and the decor is beautiful. The lighting gets dimmer as the night gets dark as well. The food was so flavorful. The chorizo sliders were full of flavor and four sliders were included in the dish. The peach burrata had so many different textures and flavors. The Brussel sprouts were cooked to a crispy perfection. I can't wait to come back. Highly recommend for a date or dinner with friends!

Amazing food and dessert. Huge portions and a great vibe. The fried banana cheese is a must try!

I really enjoyed the lamb chops, the grilled shrimp, my drink but not the Mac. The lamb was seasoned great and they have happy hour ($7) drinks. The waiter was nice and attentive. It's decorated nicely and the space flowed well. I would go back to order the lamb but not so much the Mac.

Outstanding restaurant. Cool vibe and great food and service. Happy hour is outstanding: discounted signature cocktails, wine and beer as well as apps,

Short walk from the hotel. Happy Hour Pork Tacos, $7.00!! Great flavor and portion, should be charging more. Get out and eat local, Here and Now, I'll be back when I'm in Ft. Lauderdale, no need to visit Los Olas Blvd to eat anymore.

The food was excellent and the service was great. Would recommend. Will return when I return to Fort Lauderdale. I've been leaving. I've been leaving like we we fly.

Great little restaurant. I had the Tuscan muscles and the flavor was great. My only real gripe was that two of the muscles hadn't opened and a few were cold though most were still hot or at least warm. I feel like the portion size of the pasta could be bigger for the price but the amount of muscles made up for it. Staff was friendly and service was reasonably quick. I went back for brunch and was happy with the meal. The bacon wrapped dates are delicious!

More of a laid back vibe with really good food. Came here for happy hour with a friend on a Wednesday. Cocktails were $7 and they have bar bites for a special price as well. At first it was slow but as the night progressed the restaurant became packed. Bartenders were friendly and service was phenomenal. We split the burger, artichoke dip, and brussel sprouts. Everything was great! Had the lucky #7 and tequila cooler to drink. No complaints all good vibes. Would recommend everything.

I really wanted to like this place, we are local and always looking for a new spot to add to the rotation. I saw the rave reviews and now I realize they're mostly from out of towners staying at the nearby Hilton. The ambiance is super cute, strong first impression. Since it's tapas style we started off with 4 plates for 3 of us and would order more from there. They were down to one bartender so the food came before the drinks. We ordered the wedge, the grilled wings, the eggplant parm and the pulled pork tacos, a nice mix of things to get a flavor for the food. The wedge was super uninteresting, ingredients didn't seem fresh at all. The wings were okay, no seasoning at all. The pulled pork tacos were room temp and lacked flavor. The best dish was the eggplant stack and even that was just okay. We decided not to order anything else from there and call it a night and go get dessert elsewhere. I'd come back for drinks and snacks if someone wanted to go but definitely not a meal and wouldn't recommend it to anyone at this point. It's a great location, hope my experience was a weird one off but I doubt it.
