About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Great for outdoor dining
  • Charming
Experience modern, coastal Italian cuisine at Fort Lauderdale's newest hot spot, La Fuga. Chef Michael Mayer infuses local South Florida flavors with classic Italian staples to create a fusion of crave-worthy, contemporary dishes.

La Fuga, (Italian for "the escape,") is nestled in the heart of the Kimpton Shorebreak, named in homage to the location’s historic beginnings. The newly renovated Kimpton Shorebreak occupies a unique space in Fort Lauderdale, originally opened as The Escape Hotel in 1949.

La Fuga pays tribute to it's origin story in name and also in atmosphere. Featuring midcentury design, and a laid-back vibe, the indoor-outdoor dining room includes views of the hotel's scenic courtyard and provides access to a rooftop pool overlooking Fort Lauderdale’s intercoastal.

    It’s a 2 location experience! Both really good. The food and service were really top notch. Home made bread with flavor and texture and a dipping sauce that kept me ordering more. Cannot forget the food! Delicious! Upstairs view for drinks afterwards was romantic, fun, and just perfect! Great evening! Thanks to the Chef and crew for a wonderful evening!

    Service was amazing. Very rarely is a bottle of wine serviced. Lasagna and bolognese were better than anything we’ve experienced in Italy!! Bravo!!

    We had the best time at La Fuga. The staff was exceptional and the food was delicious. We loved the mussels and octopus appetizers, Ceaser salad and oxtail cacio Pepe risotto. Highly recommend

    Excellent Italian food! Our waiter JAMES took really good care of us.  The food was amazing. I had the Bolognese the best I’ve ever had. My husband had the lobster ravioli and he said it was incredible. The tiramisu was tops! Thank you to the chef for making my experience wonderful and for coming to my table this week to be about my brutal allergies. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and we look forward to coming back again!
