   Amazing food!!! 100% authentic Mexican seafood. Do not come here looking for burritos and enchiladas, you will not find them. Instead, come here with an open mind and a hungry soul. We needed a place like this in south Florida and I’m glad we found one so close to home. My Mexican boyfriend said the flavors took him back home. The service by Alejandra was outstanding as well. Her recommendations and attention were top notch. Will definitely be back!

   A very creative menu! Beautiful garnish on the guacamole with crispy tortilla instead of chips (!), tuna tartare was delicious with apple, crab chunks on tortilla was a great change over crab cakes, tasty octopus ceviche, sea bass entree with crumb crust was perfectly prepared, shrimp lasagna entree was a delightful creation, churro over diced apple and sauce topped with ice cream was to die for (exceptionally crispy), and finally, the flan was good! We will be back!

   Great food. Went on Cinco de Mayo so it was crowded, no parking available, service was painfully slow and Mariachi band, while fun, was far too loud for the size of the space. We'll try again soon.

   Ambiance great. Drinks good. Service fair. Food awful! I don’t think I’ve ever had a worse taco. Steak was inedible, chewy. Would only go back for drinks if that.

   This place is worthy of leaving a review for. We’ve visited AIDA twice, happy to return for the second visit - and just as good as the first. Great and fresh food, and not the typical burrito/enchilada type menus. We loved our lump crab tostada appetizers, ceviche and lobster tacos, among other things, not to mention awesome desserts!

   The food was unique and of good quality. We really enjoyed the flavors. It was a Sunday night and there were only three tables of people. They informed us ahead of time that the kitchen closed at 745. Our reservation was at 645 so that seemed fine. A margarita cost 16 dollars for a rocks glass portion! So both of us having two drinks, we were already 64 dollars in before food. 20 bucks for two street tacos seems a bit expensive! The guacamole was very tasty served with nice chips. We did feel a bit pushed out as time approached 745. A larger table celebrating a birthday arrived and at 745 the lights were lowered and the bar was cleaned up. Seemed a bit odd and unwelcoming. For the prices of drinks and food, I would think being more considerate of people dining vs focusing on closing up for the night would be important. The space is lovely but 200 dollars for a night out for tacos and drinks seemed like a lot.

    Fantastic creative food and drinks… not your average Tex Mex place… friendly, knowledgeable, professional but fun service in a great atmosphere and super location. A tad bit pricey but definitely worth it. Will definitely be back. Spread the word. This place really needs to catch on.

    Despite this restaurant confirming our rsvn via OpenTable yesterday, 4/14/23, we arrived to a completely closed restaurant. No staff nor sign in sight. We know for a fact this restaurant did not contact anyone re being shutdown bc other unsuspecting diners arrived at the same time as us. And before AIDA tries blaming the recent rain & flood that occurred THREE days ago, there was zero standing water anywhere on-site AND the restaurant next door was perfectly fine & fully operating. Stay closed, AIDA, & don’t bother reopening. All of us customers you screwed over tonight, stood hungry in your parking lot & vowed to spread the word to all against your joke of a restaurant.
    

    AIDA Mexican Seafood Fort LauderdaleResponded on April 18, 2023We apologize for the inconvenience on April 14th. Due to unforeseen flood damages affecting key aspects of our restaurant's operation, we couldn't open and failed to notify you on time. While we can't change the past, please accept our sincere apologies and allow us to make it up to you with a complimentary dinner. Contact us directly to make a reservation at your convenience. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with an exceptional dining experience in the future. Sincerely, AIDA

    This is the best Mexican restaurant ( Mexican seafood ) in Ft. Lauderdale . The service is on point tev decor is trendy hipster but at the same time cozy. We ordered ceviche red chiles de pulpo it was delicious then we ordered a tuna tartare with green apple , something I’ve never tried before and I was very surprised because the flavors were amazing . We had guac and it’s was a true Mexican guacamole We also had tuna Tiradito , tacos de camaron de chicharrón and I was very surprised with the ryb eye costra tacos .. wow. Delicious We had the huachinango a la talla and tuna carnitas and i could say this is the best experience I’ve ever he in months if not years. Congratulations!

    Everything was awesome and it was our first time dining at Aida. The food is unique, freshly made and delicious! Pleasantly surprised by having a DJ at the bar playing 80’s remixes to keep the atmosphere lively and fun. We will definitely be back and bring friends with us!

    Amazing experience at the restaurant. The food was great and the overall experience cozy and special. The highlight dishes from what we tried and are a must are the lasagna, the ceviche with salsa verde and the grilled octopus. All the desserts are amazing as the ice creams are homemade and creamy. The drinks were also very good. Great to celebrate especial occasions.

    I wanted to like this restaurant and don't like to write anything negative but...We may have ordered wrong but our server did not speak English very well and was not helpful at all. She acted like we were an inconvenience -when we asked what came on the tacos she stated "nothing"-just the shell and meat. No sides are offered. The drinks look pretty but did not taste good. We sat outside and cars drove by constantly and the train went by 2 0r 3 times-very noisy. The guacamole was some of the best I've had. Maybe a standard happy hour for drinks if they are discounted and guacamole-that's it.

    The place is ok, not great but is good. Train is passes next to it so is noisy when it passes. The food is good but the price makes you think it will be amazing (it is expensive for what it is, for expample 2 small tacos for 20-23 dlls). Waiter has issues: she was expecting us to have more food or drinks and once she realized we were not going to order more her actitud changed and starting being rude. When we asked for the check she showed us the screen of the pad instead of printing the check until I we requested. Once we paid, we paid in cash and she started counting the cash on the table (felt awkward and rude, made us feel she was thinking we were giving less money). If they had better pricing and better service we would definitely go back and recommend it.

    This place has a lot of potential. It was obvious that the server was new to the job, and the level of care was not up to what was expected, but it wasn't bad. The music was very loud...which made the patrons talk loud...which made it difficult to hear. We went on Valentine's Day. The menu for the holiday was definitely not worth the price, but I will go back to check out the regular menu and give the place another try.
