We had such a great night here. Olive & Sea is inside the Hilton. The food was absolutely delicious — every dish at the table was a hit, and we passed plates saying, “You have to try this.” The service really stood out, too. Attentive without hovering, friendly without feeling forced. They timed everything perfectly and made us feel genuinely welcome. Note: gratuity was automatically added.

Lovely place and highly recommended for anyone visiting Fort Lauderdale, FL.
I came here for a business meeting and had the chance to try several of their business appetizers, and everything exceeded my expectations. The food was fresh, well-prepared, and full of flavor.
The standout sample plates were the fried artichokes, wings, and falafels — each one delicious and perfectly seasoned.
The natural drinks were especially impressive: fresh, refreshing, and very flavorful .
The atmosphere was pleasant and professional, making it an excellent place for both business meetings and casual dining. I would definitely return and recommend it without hesitation.

We celebrated our wedding ceremony and dinner at Olive and Sea in December 2025.
It was a fantastic and unforgettable experience, mainly thanks to the support and organization of Bernadette, the event manager. Since our first contact with her, she was extremely helpful , providing clear information on the several options.
She allowed us to design the whole experience as we wanted and everything worked out perfectly thanks to her and all the staff.
The place is beatiful with incredible sunset views to the marina and yatchs passing by. All our guests loved it, as well as the food and the several options for wine and drinks. We would recommend anyone visiting Olive and Sea and organizing your event here.

I was excited to try this place for happy hour but ran into a miscommunication that started the evening off poorly. I read online that the outdoor patio was included in happy hour, and the hostess seated us there but our waitress later said it wasn’t. The patio wasn’t even busy, so the situation felt unnecessary and frustrating. Once we moved to another area, we were finally able to order, and the vegetarian options were fresh and delicious. I’d consider coming back if the staff communicated in a more kind and clear manner to ensure a smoother experience.

Service was great , valet parking is a must. Great place for celebratory dinner – for 4 people approx price $300 total. The outdoor seating is great.

We had such a wonderful dining experience here! From the moment we sat down, both our server Adriana and the male bartender serving us 8/26 made us feel so welcome. They were warm, attentive, and genuinely hospitable—going above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Their friendliness and care turned a simple night out into something special. The atmosphere was inviting, the service was outstanding, and we left feeling like valued guests. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for great food and truly exceptional service!

Olive and Sea is undeniably a beautiful restaurant with a stunning setting and atmosphere. The décor, views, and overall vibe make it feel like a special night out from the moment you walk in. Unfortunately, the service really missed the mark during my visit. It was slow, inattentive, and lacked the attention to detail you’d expect from such a nice establishment. While the environment was lovely, the disconnect between the setting and the level of service left me feeling underwhelmed. With some improvements in staff attentiveness and hospitality, this could easily be an incredible dining experience — but for now, it just doesn’t live up to its potential.

What a nice time. If you decide to eat here, I suggest to make reservations for outside. The view is amazing. For an appetizer, I had the charred octopus. I can’t rate it because it was my first time trying it. It was a good experience. For entree, I had the salmon with orzo. Perfectly cooked and well seasoned. For dessert I had the chocolate pistachio bread pudding. Absolutely amazing. I love bread pudding and these is definitely top five. Overall a great experience if you like Mediterranean cuisine.

We had dinner at Olive & Sea last night. The entire experience was wonderful except for the hostess. When we arrived for our reservation the hostess was on the phone, even after she hung up she didn’t acknowledge us for a couple minutes. When she did, she barely looked at us, didn’t smile, and mumbled. Upon seating us, she handed us the menus without a word.
Our perception of Olive & Sea changed drastically when our server, Maria, arrived. She is one of the best servers we’ve ever had! She was super friendly and kind. She made sure we knew exactly what we were ordering and suggested alternatives if it wasn’t what we were envisioning. She was very attentive to our needs and treated us with complete respect. What a genuinely wonderful person!
The food was delicious and the cardamom honey old fashioned is reason enough to check out this restaurant!
