S3 (Sun Surf Sand)

How wonderful experience with incredible sushi, sophisticated flavors but simple approach. This is high-end meets the beach, you couldn't ask for more! The execution is absolutely perfect both in flavor and temperature meaning that your sushi is ideal, the rest of the food is also wonderful. Try the octopus appetizer, It is splendid. The corporate sushi chef has really done a wonderful job transforming the menu and elevating S3 to one of the best spots to enjoy fresh fish on the beach or off. You can't beat the wonderful friendly service and the location is ideal, how often do you get to enjoy delicious fish while looking at the ocean? Don't miss this one!

Excellent place along the Fort Lauderdale Beach strip. Valet parking only $10, (Very difficult to find meter parking) Huge, open restaurant with a very relaxed but sophisticated vibe. We went there for a birthday celebration.The menu is Pan-Asian but there are plenty of other dishes on the menu to satisfy guests that are not necessarily like Asian food. Our waiter, Trevor, was incredible and as close to a professional waiter as you can get; Knowledge of all dishes and specials by heart,no cheat sheet! One of the best waiters I have ever had the pleasure to meet! We brought our own cake and Trevor cut it for us! The service is really this restaurant's string point! The appetizers are plentiful and large, and so are the main dishes. Plenty to share if you so desire. I had the slow cooked beef ribs which were rich and soft. A bit too many sauces/purees for taste. The beef ribs were succulent enough and didn't really need anything else. The sushi was fresh and original. Tasty onion rings! Good drinks at a reasonable price. Overall a good experience, outdoor seating available with fire pits(Gas) and comfortable sofas.

We had our 20th anniversary lunch here today and it was such an amazing experience. We recently travelled to Japan and the sushi here took us back to Tokyo. Highly recommend! Our server Cameron had great recommendations and was very knowledgeable. Thanks man!

What a lovely place! It is somehow hard to find parking, though. Service is amazing! We were served at the bar, and the bartender was very friendly & knowledgeable about the menu. The food was good. Can't say it was something extraordinary, but it did its job wasn't hungry after it. Most likely, if I am in the area , I'll be back.

Had a great brunch here today. Our server Ñam was super attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Majority of my party had the bottomless mimosas and I the fresh squeezed strawberry lemonade. For our meals we had the S3 Burger, Shrimp & Grits, Kale Salad w Salmon, Shrimp Tacos and sushi. Everyone enjoyed their food. S3 is very pretty with awesome vibes right on the beach with beautiful views. Give them a try, you won’t regret it.

Had a great experience at this restaurant! Came here for a business dinner, and the food was just amazing. I'm a vegetarian, so I'm used to settling for whatever happens to be available to accommodate my dietary requirements, but once the staff found this out, they rearranged the event menu to have actually tasty courses, rather than making me feel like an afterthought. It was that good that a few of my teammates and I returned the following day for brunch! The ambiance, service, and waterfront views only enhanced the experience. Can't wait to go back, highly recommend!

We attended this restaurant on Saturday March 15 2025 for date night while on vacation in Fort Lauderdale. We didn’t have reservations and the restaurant was full, so we sat at the back bar. The bartender at the back bar name was Cindy. She was very good attentive and the drinks were fire. The food was very great !! And the atmosphere was great. So We went back for my fiancé‘s 60th birthday with family on March 18 and we had reservations. Our experience this time was not good. . Our waitress was not attentive. The drinks were horrible. The food was cold and the restaurant was not that crowded. Our hotel that we stayed at had given us complementary drinks coupons for the restaurant that we gave to the waitress to take off our bill. That I realized on our way back to Illinois the next day was not applied to our bill. So I would give Saturday night of five star and Wednesday a 2 star. These photo are from Saturday night

Phenomenal!! We hosted my graduation dinner here at S3, for a party of 20, and everyone had a fantastic time! Let's talk about the atmosphere first. Ambiance was fantastic, we were seated at a large combined table with ample space. Lighting was great and we loved the excellent service by our wait staff team. The menu was pre-selected and the wait staff did a phenomenal job timing the arrival of food such that we had ample time to enjoy our drinks and chat prior to digging in. We first had the edamame and korean fried chicken, followed by some salmon, grilled octopus, one of the best churascco steak I've ever had, shrimp noodles, and to close it out, a delicious, velvety soft double chocolate cake. I would highly recommend S3 to my family and friends without any hesitation. They are a great place to host celebratory dinners!!
