Discover Lauderdale by the Sea

Lauderdale by the Sea is a Broward County community on the Atlantic Ocean. While this area is mainly known for fine dining, there are also plenty of budget eats for those looking to grab a quick bite. Most area restaurants serve seafood, of course, but there are also plenty of steakhouses, pizza parlors, delis and diners that offer meal choices to fit any budget. The area’s strong Latino heritage shows in the plentiful authentic Mexican, Cuban, Peruvian and even Brazilian eateries. Lauderdale by the Sea’s snowbirds and transplants have also influenced the local restaurants. It is not uncommon to see a New York-style deli on the beach, or a prix fixe brunch offering bagels with Nova lox and capers.
