La Brochette Bistro - Hollywood

This could easily be my second five-star review, but I tend to be more critical of top-tier restaurants because they are the ones that genuinely listen to their customers and make improvements. **Food:** OUTSTANDING! We started with the pear and goat cheese appetizer, followed by the lobster ravioli and grilled octopus. Each of these dishes was packed with incredible flavors, and every bite offered something unique. The presentation was excellent. We then enjoyed three fish dishes along with a duck special, which was cooked to perfection. Each fish dish had its own distinct flavor and tasted fresh. For dessert, we tried the bread pudding and tartufo; both were excellent, though my wife and her friend agreed that the tartufo stole the show. **Service:** The service was excellent but felt a bit rushed. Even though we had a wonderful meal and the staff was top-notch, our server seemed busy and didn’t get the chance to greet us or introduce herself, which would have made our first visit feel warmer. It was Saturday night, so I understand the pace. **The Drawbacks:** We were seated in the left side room, and the decor is in serious need of an update. The old green carpet paired with red wine-colored walls, and there was even a hole in the wall next to our table. The silverware also felt less than classy. As for the food, I would suggest that the sides served with each dish be varied rather than the same across the board. It makes the meal feel less thoughtful and complete. The presentation of the appetizers far surpasses that of the main courses, and your high-quality food deserves that extra attention. I genuinely believe this restaurant could easily be at the top in Broward County! I recommend you visit (Pasta and) to see how your competition in the same price range performs. With tip, our total was $100 per person, and I definitely consider it worth the cost. I would become a regular if the restaurant aimed for that next level.

A true gem! Drop everything and make a reservation. Prepare yourself for an unforgettable experience that you'll treasure forever—or at least until your next meal.

The steak and fries were excellent. It has a wonderful atmosphere, perfect for a romantic dinner or a casual outing with friends.

Love this restaurant. Ended up finding the best cabernet ever recommended by our server. The food spectacular. It is pricey though.
