We usually visit Flanigans for lunch, as their lunch specials are excellent and the best deals in town. This visit was for dinner on a night when a big football game was being televised locally. As we expected, the seats at the bar were all occupied with football fans. There was also a 30 minute wait for tables, which wasn’t ideal, but we understood that Flanigans has a sports bar appeal with their big screens throughout. Every table and barstool in the place has a good view of the games. Once we were seated, our experience was superb. Fernando, our waiter, was friendly, professional and efficient. He showed us the dinner specials. We didn’t know about these and some of us, including myself, opted for the steak dinner from the specials menu. The steaks were perfect, done to order, tender and juicy. While the dinner specials cost quite a bit more than lunch specials here, they are still a very good deal. We always like to take advantage of bargains and Flanigans will be in our dinner rotation now that we’ve tried the steak dinners on the menu of discounted meals. The bonus on the night of our visit was that it was exciting to watch the televised game in a lively place full of passionate football fans all around. We will be back to Flanigans sometime soon.

Help me with thisn1 star review

Ordered online for pickup which showed ready at 10:13pm food was not actually prepared.or ready for pickup until 10:25pm

We ordered two cheese burgers medium, sweet potato fries (without sugar/cinnamon) and shoe string onions.

One burger, pictured, was super raw. Not even close to cooked through. (It also had tomato on it which obviously isnt a huge deal it can be taken off and wouldn’t be enough for me to write this review)

The sweet potato fries came with the sugar/cinnamon powder. Why even have an option for it to not be included?

Ultimiately we didnt expect much going in and we’re still let down for a $50 meal it was inedible. I would recommend eating at the restuaruant.

Here is a professional, concise public response that addresses the issues directly, accepts responsibility, and invites resolution. No em dashes used.

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. We are sorry that your pickup experience did not meet expectations, especially given the wait time and the issues with your order.

An order showing as ready should be prepared and accurate when you arrive. The delay, the undercooked burger, and the incorrect preparation of the sweet potato fries are all misses on our end. Offering customization options only makes sense if they are followed correctly, and we understand how frustrating it is when that does not happen.

A $50 meal should never be inedible, and we regret that this was your experience. This feedback has been shared with our kitchen and management teams so we can address both timing and quality control during pickup orders.

We would appreciate the opportunity to make this right. Please reach out to us directly with your order details so we can follow up appropriately.

Understood. Here is a clear, concise, and polished version of your review written from the customer perspective, factual and direct.

Ordered online for pickup. The order showed as ready at 10:13 PM but was not actually prepared until 10:25 PM.

We ordered two cheeseburgers cooked medium, sweet potato fries without sugar or cinnamon, and shoestring onions.

One of the burgers was extremely undercooked and not even close to safe to eat. It also came with tomato, which was not requested, though that was not the main issue.

The sweet potato fries arrived covered in sugar and cinnamon despite selecting the option for none. That makes the customization option feel meaningless.

For a $50 meal, this was very disappointing. The food was inedible, and the pickup timing was inaccurate. Based on this experience, I would recommend dining in rather than ordering pickup.

Id like to add something about none of the issues by themselves would have spurned me to write this review nut the fact that one of the meals was unsafe to eat and the every single option was delivered incorrectly felt it was pertinent to take time to write this review

Here is the revised version with that point added clearly and professionally, without overstatement.

Ordered online for pickup. The order showed as ready at 10:13 PM but was not actually prepared until 10:25 PM.

We ordered two cheeseburgers cooked medium, sweet potato fries without sugar or cinnamon, and shoestring onions.

One of the burgers was extremely undercooked and not even close to safe to eat. It also came with tomato, which was not requested, though that alone would not have prompted this review.

The sweet potato fries arrived covered in sugar and cinnamon despite selecting the option for none. At that point, every customization on the order had been missed.

None of these issues individually would have led me to leave a review, but receiving a meal that was unsafe to eat combined with every option being prepared incorrectly made it feel necessary to take the time to write this. For a $50 meal, this was very disappointing.

Based on this experience, I would recommend dining in rather than ordering pickup.

I did not have a good experience last night at this location. Service was poor, in every aspect. Food was good but when you need something and no one show up in a long period of time , your dinner is bad.

This was our 3rd visit to a Flanigan’s restaurant. Each was from a different location. Our two previous visits were less than ideal. service was bad, slow.and the food was sub par so we were bracing ourselves for more of the same. That was not the case. We were seated almost immediately and within less than two minutes our server came and took our drinks order. He was very attentive and wad available as soon as we had decided on what to eat. The food came out surprisingly quick and I must say was perfectly cook and delicious! My wife ordered a half rack of ribs while I ordered a Philly steak. We were both pleasantly surprised!

The last time I went to a Flanigan’s I ended up with food poisoning and vowed to never return again… after years of passing up, I decided to accompany my family and actually had a good experience at the Tamarac/North Lauderdale location. We sat by the bar and the waitress Evelyn was attentive. Our food was really good, big portions and flavorful, the drinks were on point as well. We ended up staying until happy hour and that didn’t disappoint either. Definitely will be back to this location….

Oh and NO food poisoning!

We came to Flanigan’s to celebrate my sister’s birthday. The family had a great time. They have a great selection of both surf and turf, which is just what we were looking for. Amanda took excellent care of us and kept us laughing all night. She’s a magical person. I ordered a full rack of ribs since Amanda mentioned they were “Legendary.” I was shocked at how delicious they were. I tried my Father’s shrimp scampi, also delicious. My daughter’s ordered ribs from the kid’s menu with loaded potatoes only $6.99! We have leftovers. Portions were plentiful. My only regret is that I did not snap a photo of our beautiful dessert. My daughters asked if we could come back here for both their birthdays. We will definitely return soon.

We had such a great experience tonight! The food was delicious, but what truly stood out was our waitress Sarah. She was incredibly attentive and made our evening even better. She refilled our drinks, brought out additional sauces all in a timely manner and kept checking in on us throughout the meal. But what impressed us most was that she did all of this while it was very clear she was busy taking care of multiple tables yet she never made us feel rushed or overlooked.

We really appreciated the care and attention we received tonight and we will definitely be back and requesting Sarah as our sever!

It has great food, a big variety of things of meat and fish, a big variety of drinks. the service was nice and quick. The place has a nice atmosphere with no windows with nicely decorated walls. So even during a hot sunny day, it feels very cozy inside. The tuna sandwich and the chicken were excellent. The price tag is very reasonable. I would say lower than average and south Florida.
I did like this place and would recommend for others to visit.

After a 40 minute wait for a table for 5 we were seated. The waitress promptly asked for drink orders. They didn’t arrive. Unfortunately after we finished the salads, we again asked for the drinks.
All five us ordered 1/2 rack of ribs. After
another extended wait they arrived.
Everyone but me received the 1/2 rack,
but mine was 1/4 rack. They were sent back and several minutes later, the same plate was brought out. I requested to speak to the manager who replied the portion was the same as the other diners, when it was clear to all they were not. The manager refused to correct the problem until everyone at the table spoke up.
The new plate came out undercooked.
Since I was still eating, the waitress began clearing the table and dropped trash from one of the plates onto my plate. At that point,
I was done. What a disappointing evening!
The restaurant was decorated for St. Patrick’s Day, but you won’t find a pot of gold there or even an enjoyable experience.
