Really great food and service. We originally sat outside at around 6 pm, but there was no shade and the live music was super loud, so we ended up moving inside.

Nice location on the water. The food and wine were mediocre at best. Fish was overcooked. No bread offered. We won't go back.

Everything is always fantastic here. One of our favorite places when we come to South Florida. The fried whole snapper is my favorite entrée at any restaurant down here.

Delicious and location is beautiful

Wait staff was amazing particularly the waiter, he was very attentive and helpful in what to order. Food was excellent fresh and the taste was pleasant to the pallet.We will be coming back but this time for the sunset and hotel stay.

Disappointment. I’ve always loved the food here but last night was a disaster. The “grouper” for the Fish and Chips was definitely tilapia or similar. Cmon. Every Floridian knows what a grouper fillet looks like. The Brussels sprouts side? Not crispy. I’ve done better. The lamb shank? Fatty and inedible and presentation was unappetizing.

Most disappointing was the service. The waitperson was kind but clearly nervous. Never asked us if we wanted to hear about the specials…which I could clearly hear being enthusiastically explained at other tables. When one of us commented about the lamb, no offer to do anything. Just an I’m sorry.

We were offered dessert but said we were still drinking wine. Literally, the bill showed up 5 mins later. Not what I’ve come to expect.

Sad.

Service excellent Food average Cocktails amazing would recommend this place for a good night out with friends

Great food, beautiful waterfront setting. Our server, Lynn, was so pleasant and provided superb service from start to finish.

Beautiful view of the sunset, matched by amazing service and excellent food.

The crab crusted Mahi was not the freshest fish. It was so hard I had to actually use a knife to cut it and at that was very hard to cut. Did not like it for $30.00+.

If you love fresh fish, this is a must go to restaurant. The grouper and swordfish were prepared to perfection. The wait staff couldn’t have been nicer. Did I mention you are on the intracoastal waterway?

Great place on the water. Lively music, great service. One Steak was tough but mgt took care of it right away. We would come back

Friendly staff, good food, great views, good drinks. Joe took great care of us,

Everything was outstanding. The white sangria was delicious as was the grilled octopus/pork belly appetizer...it was one of the most creative and tasty treatments of ingredients I've had. Everyone enjoyed their choices which included the savory Mediterranean chicken and snapper preparation. I've always know the chef here was a master with fish but his talent goes far beyond this.

Great location and food!
The reservation process was easy

It was a beautiful night so that helped! The food looked yummy! We ended up ordering a whole rack of ribs for myself and husband. It came with fries and we had a side salad and couldn’t finish 1/2 the rack between us! The only thing I can pick on was the price of the drinks were all approximately $16. I ordered a martini and they charged me $14 with a $2 up charge being a Martini, which was only just ok. There was music, a nice looking crowd and I’ll be back as the fried whole fish look fabulous!

Best restaurant in pompano!!!

Some of the very best tasting food every!! We definitely love this restaurant!!

Great service Music was a little loud but ok

Such a pretty restaurant, but they closed early because they were “slow” and would not honor our reservation. Very disappointing as it looks quite cute and we were anticipating becoming regulars as we are local.

For being a 5 star restaurant the food was not as expected. Pork over cooked steak no up to grade poor quality. Not sure if I would return. No impressed

I was pleasantly surprised by this restaurant. I was not expecting the food to taste so dang delicious. This place is a gem and a must try. Nice views on the water and we enjoyed the music that the dj was playing next door at the hotel. Highly recommend!

Beautiful view outside. Nice staff. Good food.

Birthday celebration! Great service’ food was delicious and great love music

Amazing fresh fish dinners, great flavor and tasty. Kon was an outstanding waiter and very attentive. Will definitely go back!

It was good. I felt like the food price could have better

The Brussel sprouts were saturated in soy sauce and some other sauce and there was a long hair in our bang bang shrimp which were too fried anyway. The tuna was good though.

Food was excellent

Enjoyable atmosphere along with very good food and ambience. The server was very nice and helpful........

Kadi, our server was great. The food was fresh and seasoned really well. Overall great experience!

The steak was amazing . The potatoes was great. It was quiet in a good way

Excellent seafood prepared in a variety of ways. Along with several choices for landlovers. My friend enjoyed the surf and turf. The brusselsprouts appetizer was delicious.

Everything was super good except for this one loud woman at the table next to us. I wish that someone from the staff would tell her something. But the place itself was really good!

Food was excellent! Service even better! Highly recommend Rusty Hook for a wonderful dining experience. Outside seating was a great option.

We sat outside, great view but really too many flies once the Entrees came...Not sure what can be done but it would put us off coming here again..
We eat at Waterfront Restaurants every week & have never had this issue to such an extent...spoilt what was a nice meal with very good service

I absolutely love the rusty hook tavern. The ambiance is spectacular whether sitting inside our outside. The food is phenomenal. The owner brings all of his amazing Moroccan spices directly from morocco and grind them so the food is out of this world.

We ate inside and it was fantastic! However, the live music outside is unreasonably LOUD! So if your looking for conversation book inside. If you’re looking for entertainment book outside. Either way depending on what your need it’s a fantastic restaurant!!! Food is AMAZING!

Pricey but food and view are amazing. We will be back 👍

The food is always fresh and we have never been disappointed with anything we have ordered. We have tried most of the dishes and love their appetizers. We have been sitting outside mostly and enjoying the beautiful water views. The service is what you expect from a fine restaurant. Our server Kadie, is attentive and sweet. I highly recommend the Rusty Hook Tavern!!!!

A great find in the Fort Lauderdale area. Good food and service are outside and enjoyed the yachts coming in to dock.
