Best Meal Ever!!
We brought our fresh tuna to Chef Dee’s after our fishing trip and it turned into one of the most unforgettable dining experiences we have ever had.
This was our first time bringing fresh fish to a restaurant and from the moment we walked in we were greeted with warmth and hospitality. The owners asked what kind of food we enjoyed and told us they would take care of everything. And they did.
They transformed our blackfin tuna into sushi, sashimi and blackened tuna. Every dish was outstanding. The flavors, the freshness and the presentation were all exceptional. It was easily one of the best meals we have had in our entire lives.
The staff made us feel like family. We left with full bellies, happy hearts and lots of hugs.
If you want a restaurant that delivers incredible food, amazing service and a true “we have you covered” experience, Chef Dee’s is the place. We cannot wait to return.

The House Wine spot on while the appetizers and the food were spectacular! We even had the pleasure of meeting the “Culinary Wizard” Chef Dee himself and he is A MAY ZIIING! If you are ever in the Pompano Beach area and want a TASTE BUD experience like no other, visit Chef Dee’s . They will not disappoint!!

Ended up at Chef Dee’s last night near sample road and federal hwy in lighthouse point. It’s in a strip mall you might not notice. We had heard good things about it from a friend so decided to give it a try. We had such a wonderful evening. The service was fantastic and the food was delicious . Chef sent out Oysters Rockefeller after they found out we were first time customers! That was a nice touch and a great way to start the night! We are not big oyster eaters but they were so good. Next was a tuna ceviche in a spicy ponzu sauce. It was a large portion and so fresh. For entree we shared one of the best skirt steaks I have ever had. It was served with caramelized onions and grilled tomatoes. Too full for dessert but can’t wait to go back and try that too

I mean I read google reviews big time. This one got it all. I even read the prices were decent. Boy what a mess… the waitress had no personality. She was a dud big time. Sorry but it is what it is. She recommended the Sushi. I told her we’re from Vancouver BC which is global powerhouse for sushi and how does it compare….$32 and $20 10 piece roll we tried! USD even. The lighthouse roll and another one.
It was decent but I’ve had way better. We had the fish and chips and meatballs off the happy hour menu. Fries were great and fish was good. Needs more sauce options.
The bill was $100.54… I wouldn’t go back. The CC broke thankfully I only had $102 in cash on me LOL. Sorry not sorry about the tip :/
Machine broke so I paid by cash. All I h

Everything we ordered was delicious. The tuna and wahoo sushi and the conch chowder were the best we’ve ever had. We also loved the wahoo bites and the lunch chicken fried rice which came in huge portions with great flavor. Chef Dee and the staff were friendly, and you can tell they take pride in their food. Can’t wait to bring in our own fresh catch next time to see what Chef Dee creates for us.

Freshest sushi I’ve had in a long time! Our server was great. He could identify the rolls on the menu from a picture and recommend the best options. Very attentive. Devoured! Our food!!!

Wow…hidden gem for sure! Chef D really knows his fish and the front of the house matches with classy Paul behind the bar! We came for lunch and will be back for dinner soon. Food was incredible.

Chef Dee’s always wanted to go here. A nice atmosphere, love the meal we had. The server should dress in white shirt black pants. Food took some time to come out. Bit it was great. It’s like a secret place.

The food is simply outstanding. Each dish is prepared with the highest quality ingredients, and you can taste the care and creativity that goes into every plate. The flavors are fresh, balanced, and memorable, making it clear that this kitchen prioritizes both artistry and integrity. Pair that with a drink menu that is just as impressive—whether it’s a handcrafted cocktail or a perfectly paired glass of wine—and you’ll find yourself savoring every sip.
What really sets this place apart, though, is the staff. Attentive without being overbearing, they make you feel genuinely welcome. The service is seamless, and the team goes above and beyond to ensure each guest feels cared for.
This is more than just a meal—it’s an experience. A rare gem that combines top-tier food and drinks with heartfelt hospitality. A place you’ll want to return to again and again.
