About
FINEST SEAFOOD & COZY ATMOSPHERE 3711 Beach Side is a cozy place in the northern part of Fort Lauderdale with an atmospheric vibe, great food, street tiki-bar and a brand new restaurant inside. We appreciate diversity and exotics. Indeed, we couldn't resist adding a classic American cuisine to our menu selection. Stop by for a juicy burger with black Angus meat.

Love this place! The food the drinks the vibe are all top notch! Dmitrii was our bartender and he was very entertaining. He does really cool bar tricks and even showed us some magic. I would recommend the shrimp and lobster grilled cheese and ask Dmitrii to make you Blue Hawaiian Long Island... thank me later!

This is a unique little restaurant that has great reviews bit they are primarily about the bartender so this review is about the food as Demetri was not working. I had the Pan Seared Snapper which is one of my favorite dishes and 3711 Beachside Restaurant does this as good or better than most. The fish was cooked perfectly and tasted great. As well the grilled vegetable were awesome. Really enjoyed dining outside by the Tiki bar. Highly recommend dining here.

Had a great time at 3711. Dmitri was outstanding. Had several tricks, friendly and a great pour.
On the second trip 9f the dau had a great meal of mahi with a nice sear, well seasoned and not dry. Fries were crisp.
Service throughout the meal was excellent and all staff were friendly.
We had a great time and the food was great.

The pictures on the web are amazing but you won't see it here. The actual restaurant was closed and we were seated next to the pool. We walked into the restaurant and just stood there, no one was around. We looked for someone and finally went outside and was told the restaurant was closed and to sit at the bar area. There is seating at the bar and three tables right behind the bar. The restaurant is at a much older motel. The motel and the bar area are in desperate need of renovation.
I ordered a moscow mule, which was awful. When I asked for more ginger beer, the bartender drained a few drops from a bottle and said that was it! We ordered the fish and chips, and the waiter came back later to say they had no fish (a restaurant in FL with no fish). We really should have ended it there, but we ordered anyway. My friend ordered the burger, which was very good. There is a seafood pasta, a lobster dish, but I knew to stick with bar food.
I can't in good conscious recommend anyone eat here. There are some dishes around the $10 range and you will definitely get what you pay for.

This restaurant, at the Royal Beach Palace Hotel, is a gem! We arrived at check-in, tired and hungry, and chose to have dinner on site for the sake of convenience. The meal was so delightful that we ate here again the second night, and had breakfast here twice as well. Our server, Sam, was friendly, helpful, upbeat and professional. He was very accommodating of our requests, and added an extra element of enjoyment to our dining experiences at 3711 Beach Side. Thank you, Sam!

The service was great and attentive but the food was less than we expected. Based off of the overhyped reviews we were expecting nothing short of amazing and it wasn’t. It food, if I’m being generous, was average at best. The restaurant is situated in the bar/lounge of an old school travel lodge style beach hotels that looked very dated and in need of a refurb. Like I said the staff was very friendly and that made up for the lack of quality in the kitchen.

Hi KingPete, Thank you so much for your review. We are so happy that you enjoyed the service, but we apologize that your food that evening was less than satisfactory. We must've truly had an off-day in the kitchen, which is unlike us. What the hotel makes up in appearance, we shine with our service and food quality. We hope you return to the hotel and restaurant again soon so that we can redeem ourselves! Best regards,

Omg y’all. Me and my friends ended up at this hotel after other lodging plans fell through and let me tell you it turned out to be the greatest whoopsie EVER. We didn’t even bother going out to any bars or restaurants because the bartender DIMITRI was the coolest dude and really made the already fun and relaxing poolside atmosphere even better. Would I go back? 100% yesss it was so fun. If you’re thinking about going just go already, Dimitri will show you cool tricks, make you awesome drinks, and definitely provide you with some fun conversation.
Also even though we were just young girls trying to have a good time I would also say this place is very family friendly. I got poolside cannonballed a couple times by some kids playing in the pool. I think this place would be a good fit for families, couples, friends, or even solo travelers. Oh and also the food is gooooood.

My wife and I were looking for a nice casual seafood restaurant. The reviews for 3711 Beach were excellent so we went. To be honest we were assuming this was a beachside restaurant. It is not. It overlooks Beach Ave. Despite that I would still recommend the restaurant. The service was friendly, prompt and helpful. The food was excellent. The portions are on the large side, but we were able to take the leftovers back to our place and enjoy them the next day for lunch. Bottom line is 3711 Beach delivers delicious food at a good value.

Guy is an absolute legend and quality entertainment. The single reason me and my friends kept coming back to this location was because of his charming jokes and his carefully crafted drinks. Truly worth a visit!

This place wasn't that bad. It doesn't look like much but the servers were very kind. Dimitri was the best, he recommended drinks and food. So I went for brunch it was delicious, never had a salmon omelette before it was really really tasty will definitely go back.

Really delicious old school drinks that are strong! GET THE SNOW CRAB. Excellent value and huge portions. Dmitrii is a fun, smart host. The night we were there he was the bartender, host, waiter, etc. Fun, totally relaxed, outdoor, beachy vibe. Everywhere else we had eaten there had been a "slick" quality to the waitstaff, and many attempts at up-selling. Here, things were relaxed and an excellent value for the price. Highly recommended for a fun, relaxing time.

Although its ranked no 1 i find it very strange. It is nice but not the top
Very hectic waiters , 1 just left the building during his shift. At a point a group of 9 were waiting for tables to be seated. We had one of those tables. So all was very quick finished for us.

We travel to many locations yearly. This trip was elevated the moment we met the hotel bartender Dmitrii! I recommend an interaction be made priority to anyone that makes their way to Fort Lauderdale and enjoys laughter and top notch service. Also we had an issue with the timing of our flight on the last day and the hotel staff didn't hesitate to assist us in making sure the trip wasn't ruined because of it. Thank you very much for all of the hospitality!!
