    Food was sub-par. Not the place to order salmon, I guess. Veggies on side were clearly frozen and came out half-cold (like really cold) and half hot, definitely microwaved. Rice tasted like boxed and nuked as well…. Stick to burger or fried stuff.

    My food was absolutely amazing! I got the blacked Mahi Sandwich and it was outstanding! Now the waiter forgot to put my sandwich in so my wife got her food way before me, but they gave me a discount on the entire check so I wasn’t upset. My wife got the blacked chicken Alfredo and I would say it was average but still good taste.

    in regards to the food my party had an assortment of fried chicken dishes, some thought there chicken was fried twice others thought it was very dry. we were given 25% off all the food. lovely view, but some of the staff that help the server with food cant wait to get away after handing you your food, seemed very rude. I under stand staffing is still hard these days. but if your staff cant be bothered, it reflects on your business.

    We believe our credit card was stolen from this restaurant but the manager would not take any responsibility. It was the same afternoon after leaving from lunch that I got an alert from my credit card regarding potential fraud charges. Fortunately they credited me and shut off the card before more damage. At minimum they should have offered a free meal.

    Con Murphy's Ocean Bar & GrillResponded on March 9, 2023

    Jane, I apologize for your situation, not sure what manager you spoke to but I will certainly look into it. Before a staff member is accused of theft, let's look into all other situations, especially since cards fall out of books and get left behind pretty frequently. If you can give me some more details so I can look into the matter we can try and determined what happened here. You can call or email me anytime 954-686-2699 or Julie@conmurphysfl.c om -Julie, GM Con Murphy's Fort Lauderdale

    It’s a great view if you get a seat by the Ocean. We ate there twice and the food is ok, except the Irish Breakfast which was delicious and served hot. We did have a long wait at Brunch and they seemed very short of staff. A good place for simple food.

    Was a windy night and asked to be moved to a table away from the wind and was told that was NOT possible. Ordered the fish and chips - fries were cold and seemed like they were cooked an hour earlier. Fish Tacos were good.

    Rude Hostess, original server made us get up to ask his boss if we could move tables because it was cold by the window. This was because he couldn't be our server if he moved us and he wouldn't get the tips.

    The food wasn’t the best. We ordered loaded nachos with chicken, but when the order came out , it didn’t have any chicken and the nachos did not look fresh. We even ordered some pizza to go and it wasn’t tasty. So we definitely did not enjoy the food there .

    Hubby had burger and I had blacked fish tacos. Nothing left on our plates. Excellent service by our server, Nas. This is a second floor beach pub that overlooks the strip. We watched the cars and the people and since we had made a reservation, were seated right at the railing. Great view. Pleasant live musician. We do recommend this place.

    This was our 3rd or 4th time eating here due to the convenience of our staying in the Marriott BeachPlace Towers above the mall where Con Murphy's is located. This time it was for lunch. My husband ate a garlic shrimp appetizer, and I ate a Caesar salad with blackened mahi. Both were good. The location is excellent, as well as the view of the beach and being able to people watch.

    We ate here for lunch after competing in the National Senior Games in the morning. Adrian took excellent care of us and was very entertaining and friendly. We enjoyed talking with her. My husband loved his vegetable pizza and I liked my blackened grouper sandwich with fruit. Since we are staying in the Marriott BeachPlace Towers above the mall area, this restaurant is very convenient.

    We ate here for dinner, and both got the grilled shrimp skewer special with asparagus and yellow rice. The asparagus was a little woody, but the shrimp were excellent. Our server Nassier took great care of us. My husband requested a blend of two draft beers, and Nassier complied with his request. Since we are staying at the Marriott BeachPlace Towers, we will probably be eating here a lot as it is in the downstairs mall area.

    First the food The appetizers of the grouper bites refresh in OK. As for the entrées my fiancé ordered a buffalo style thin crust pizza that was modified that was OK as for my order which was fish and chips my french fries were cold the fish sticks themselves were the size of eggrolls overly big mostly of it being breading also was full of grease to the point that I had to squeeze the grease out of them with the napkins that I had to walk over to the bar to retrieve. As for the drinks there were no mention of any specialty drinks deals promotions anything the server was doing his best but obviously was not trained well. My fiancé’s drink was water down to the point that kid barely taste the alcohol my drink was also watered down with heavy ice But I can somewhat taste the alcohol. Basically paid $100 for some fish nuggets that I could’ve made at home overly grease fish and chips a pizza that I could’ve got from probably dominoes for half the price into water down alcoholic drinks funny thing is my drink was a double and I still couldn’t taste the alcohol but as for the view cause I had a deck view it was ok and I tried to make the best of it.

    We had a party of 11 people, which included 4 children under 10. We made on-line reservations which minimized waiting, and we had a very good experience. Our waitress, Jessica, took very good care of us and was very attentive. Food was good and the live entertainment was very good and not overly loud. Overall, had a very good dinner experience. Nice job!

    I’m not one to complain but I ordered the beef stew. My wife ordered shrimp and grits which were passable. The beef stew had ONE piece of beef in the entire dish. One piece of beef in a beef stew. My margarita was undrinkable. Maybe it was an insulated incident but not acceptable. Our waitress who I unfortunately forget her name did an excellent job and removed both my meal and drink from the bill.
