Best WLM Reviews

Excellent service, amazing staff, enjoyable atmosphere. The dining experience at this restaurant was exceptional. The food and the live music was outstanding. The restaurant offers a scenic view of the beach and the historic pier. It was such a beautiful moment.
The dining experience at this restaurant was exceptional. The food was of outstanding quality, complemented by excellent service. The live music further enhanced the ambiance, creating a lively and enjoyable atmosphere. The restaurant offers a scenic view of the beach and the historic pier, which I hope will be restored soon. While valet parking is the only option available, the overall experience is highly recommended.
My server, Shelley, was nice and fast. I highly recommend this restaurant
If you’re trying to have a meal down by the beach, this is the place to be. Service was quick and efficient. The food was really good. I had this stuffed shrimp. The view of the beach right behind is absolutely gorgeous. I highly recommend you try this place out if you are in the Fort Lauderdale area.

Our go to spot for dinner when family or friends come to town. They never disappoint. I love the coconut shrimp and my sister always gets the fish and chips. While the Binnini loaf is delicious, it takes up all the space meant for the meal so I can’t touch it but it’s delicious. Always warm and tasty. Live music ???? indoors with a/c for those super hot days.
We love to dine outside with a full view of the ocean and the amazing breeze as the sun goes down. Aruba’s is not just a restaurant. It’s an experience. Come get you some ????
What I ordered: bread, Steak and shrimp scampi, pina colada
Price: $65
Overall thoughts: great vibes, delicious food, and outstanding service.
PRESENTATION & CREATIVITY- I believe all food is art. This meal was fantastic. It was presented neatly and I can tell they took good care creating my food. Even the drinks looks great.
QUALITY & TASTE- Everyone has their own opinion of preferences of taste. This meal was so deliciously I’m full and want more! The steak was so good and juicy, the drinks weren’t too strong but had a good amount of alcohol. That bread is so good you have to get the bread!
SERVICE & HOSPITALITY- One aspect of a great experience at an establishment is the service of the staff. At this location, the staff was so friendly. Diego at the front podium was so friendly and told me all about the restaurant which convinced me to come in. I was originally just taking a walk by the beach but Diego’s friendliness convinced me to come in. I ended up getting drinks and dinner. My waitress Niki was so friendly as well. She made sure I was doing well and had great recommendations(about the bread) The atmosphere is so great, they always have live music. If you’re interested there also seating by the beach.
VARIETY OF OPTIONS- Some establishments offer very diverse menu. At this establishment, they have lots of option. If you are vegetarian, they have impossible burger.
BANG FOR YOUR BUCK? Is this too expensive for the quality of food?
YES! It’s a great time and good food!
EXTRA NOTES: come here
A really fun place, right on the beach. They have indoor and outdoor seating. Beware of the seagulls. ???? Our food was very well prepared and tasted excellent. Seasoned well and so good
Save room for dessert. ????
IMHO - This is the best option in the area if you're trying to balance value, quality, and atmosphere.
Highly recommend starting with the Bimini Bread, but don't fill up if you're able to take it with you when you leave. It's has a really unique flavor and could serve as an app or desert. It's really a full loaf.
My favorite dish by far is the roasted chicken. A simple dish that they've perfected with great complimentary sides. I It's a big enough portion that you probably won't finish.
If you're seated right - the view is incredible. Especially if you like people watching on the beach. There was a band playing and set the tone for a very relaxed atmosphere.
Our server (Veronica) was awesom. Super helpful, attentive, and patient as we struggled to pick our meals.
I can't wait to go back on our next visit.
For an outdoor beach front place to eat, we loved it!! The shrimp was huge,exactly what we wanted!! Kelly our waitress was very friendly! Quesadilla was filled with shrimp worth the money!
