    The food and service were fantastic. The calamari was so good. It was very loud though. There was a dj with thumping music and quite a crowd. This could be a fun scene for a young couple but maybe not a family’s first choice. :)

    It's a cool place with a loud atmosphere. Maybe not great at any one thing but very good at many.

    Nestled in the Las Olas area, YOLO is an amazing experience with outdoor seating that included a live DJ and plenty of people watching. The food was top notch, and came out relatively quickly. The menu has some pretty rad options including table side tomahawk steak searing, that I will be indulging in next time. If you’re looking for the Ft Lauderdale experience, I highly recommend coming here.

    Great dinner in a lively atmosphere. The food was very good and our service was outstanding. As it was busy with a DJ outside, it was quite lively.

    Fun atmosphere, food was great, drinks were just okay. Would definitely go back. So r forget to make a reservation as the wait can be extremely long. Especially on a weekend!

    Average experience. Was wonderful in the past. Steaks cooked at wrong temp, apps not hot. Just basic stuff for a higher end restaurant they missed on.
