this amazing restaurant in Fort Lauderdale is supper cozy and overlooks the waterway. Sunday brunch was excellent with a vast array of different selections. we ate a little of everything but my fave had to be the seafood. What a special day to enjoy life and look at the boats pass
Great appetizers and entrees Lobster presentation is among the best and the flavors were delicious Excellent service too
We had a wonderful meal from the amazing espresso martinis & Brie appetizer to our main courses of Grouper & Mahi. Our server Kevin was exceptional! We will definitely return!
Atmosphere, service, and food were perfect! Made for a wonderful family celebration. Thank you!
Blue Moon was beyond my expectations. We were a group of 4. It was a cool evening and I was concerned about being not only on patio not fully under the covering next to water. The hostess allowed us to check table first and let her know if it was too cool and she would do her best to accommodate finding another table even though they were booked. But it turned out fine. Next was meeting our server named Jim. He's a good ol'soul. Knew the menu inside and out, explained ingredients, crowd favorites and was accommodating to me when I only wanted the scallop appetizer and mashed potatoes that were part of the special that night. We also had the tuna, swordfish and lamb chops. The swordfish was massive over a creamy risotto. The lamb chops were served with a delicious gnocchi and sweet potato mash. That was delicious but the quality of lamb was a tad tough. My scallop was perfect as an entry. The parm mashed potatoes were a little dry but still a good amount. My highlight was the carrot cake dessert. OMG it was light, nutty and the cream cheese was fluffy and lightly sweetened. Blue Owl also had a very good wine selection that was fairly priced. We would definitely go back and ask to sit in Jim's area.
This place is phenomenal, the views are amazing and the service is spectacular! We had an amazing server friendly and knowledgeable. The food was pretty good and the atmosphere was is fun and light. A great way to spend a Sunday afternoon
Blue Moon has great ambience. They're located on the intercostal. Make sure to ask for seating overlooking the water. The food and service was great. I highly recommend any of the fish dishes. The sea bass was great. Also start off with the cake cake. You won't go wrong.
Blue moon is our go to on Sundays for their brunch, its an open seafood buffet and a meat carving satiation as well as an included small plates menu that has things like crab cake, lamb chops, fish, scallops, etc.. the Sunday brunch comes with a bottomless mimosa, champagne or bloody mary. The seafood buffet includes fresh oysters, shrimps, and snow crab legs. The food is amazing, fresh and is probably the best value for the money in the area. There is also an amazing dessert station, and nothing tops their warm bread pudding. The service is 10/10, all the guys there provide a great service while ensuring your mimosa glass stay topped off. The ambiance is like no other for a Sunday outside in the patio, sitting dockside on the intercostal while yachts go by. You can also dock your boat while enjoying a nice meal. They have valet parking as well as street parking. You definitely want to make sure you have a reservation in advance as they get very busy. I cant think of a place in south Florida that we've been to more often than Blue moon. Once you go once you will always go back with family and friends.
