Restaurants & other tips for Ft. Lauderdale?
Will be in Ft. Lauderdale later this week for 4 days and would appreciate any restaurant recommendations from locals or anyone who's been there recently, particularly for fresh fish/seafood, although I enjoy all types of food. Prefer moderately-priced places (under $25 per person) but the occasional splurge is fine.
Also any tips on things to do, sightseeing, etc. Is a trip to the butterfly place worth it?
I've reserved a rental car but it has been suggested that I may not need it and could get by with taxis to & from the airport and water taxis elsewhere. Any thoughts on this?

Lisa,
It isn't fancy eats.... but you can't get much better than sitting on the upper deck of Sloppy Joe's. It has a beautiful view of the ocean and all the sights below. AND, the best Key Lime Pie!!!! As far as the car, we spentd a week there without a car and didn't have any problems getting around. However, we love to walk and don't think much about LONG walks to get to wherever we want to go. It is a fun town; I know you will have a good time.

Hi Lisa:
Something we did and enjoyed was the dinner cruise on the Jungle Queen. Kind of Hokey but the ride down the New River to a private island with all you can eat and a cute show. We had fun and alot of laughs. www.junglequeen.com
Have a great time!

the seawatch restaurant in pompano beach has always been totally terrific. haven't been there in a few years but it really is great. right on the ocean. ask for a table with a view. it's lovely and the food is great. all fresh seafood and fish. great key lime pie as well.
