Review of Why Not Restaurant on Hollywood Beach Broadwalk
Pretty good food, not perfect but enjoyable. Nice ocean views. Server was lacking- arrogant and inattentive. Kitchen was quite slow. Waffles …

Had a great time here with my wife! We set at the bar, and the bartenders were super friendly. They talked to us about the menu and recommendations. We started with an espresso martini for her and the pistachio martini for me at his recommendation. Both Martinis are absolutely amazing. We shared the bruschetta that which was really good and tasted fresh, then we shared a Tony Montana sushi roll. Who knew that avocado and plantains on a sushi roll will be good. This was one of the most tasteful sushi roll I’ve ever had.

Lovely restaurant with both indoor and outdoor seating. We sat outside on a clear evening. They have a menu at the front for you to look at without being pressured to eat there. The waitresses were very friendly.
There is a good choice on the menu. We had the fresh fettuccine with chicken and BBQ burger with beacon. They were both cooked to perfection and very tasty.
I tried the pineapple juice without realising it is freshly made. It was wonderful and very refreshing.
We had a great meal and would highly recommend.

The reviews were right on. They have an extensive menu and the food was excellent. I went with the waitress recommendation and I was very happy. The service was also great and the views are an added bonus, specially if you sit outside. I will definitely be back to try some of their other goodies!

We visited Why Not? café and were very pleased with our experience!
Our server, Fernanda, was incredibly friendly, attentive, and cheerful. She explained in detail which dishes contain meat, which was very helpful since we don’t eat it. Thanks to her, choosing our meal was easy and pleasant.
We started with a pineapple fresh juice — it was natural, refreshing, and perfectly balanced in sweetness. The food was absolutely delicious: I ordered the Why Not signature rolls, and they were simply incredible — tender, flavorful, and beautifully presented.
We also ordered a large seafood portion for three people — everything was cooked perfectly: fresh shrimp, mussels, calamari, and a rich, aromatic sauce with just the right amount of spice. The dish was generous and truly tasty.
To finish, we had coffee. The latte was strong, aromatic, and a perfect ending to the meal.
Overall — great service, cozy atmosphere, and very delicious food. We will definitely return and highly recommend this place!

Just so-so. The food was mediocre, expensive, small portions, lots of room for improvement. You come to this restaurant for the atmosphere, the vibes on the boardwalk, the music. The food, although we spent $130 for three people, we were still hungry afterwards. The poke powl had a mere three ingredients, salmon, avocado and rice, definitely could have used seaweed, sautéed mushrooms and all sorts of add ons, but it was bare, the salmon tasted good, it was just minimal. The sushi was just okay, again, lots of room for improvement on the rainbow roll, the top layer was incredibly thin, barely any fish. And whoa, expensive wine, for basic choices, yikes! Come here to enjoy the view, staff is nice, boardwalk is nice!

This restaurant is amazing! Service and food are top notch. The star of the show was the homemade pasta. I know……always eat seafood while at the ocean but their homemade pasta is phenomenal. We had such great and attentive team members from our greetings coming in the door to when we left, we even were asked how our experience was by the owner.
It’s about a 5 minute walk from Margaritaville. Enjoy!

I can’t say enough great things about this place. We first went a couple of years ago and the quality and atmosphere was so great I had to come back the next time we came to town. So last weekend when it was cold and icky in Hollywood Beach and the iguanas were falling from the trees, we opted for the pasta served table side in a cheese wheel, so we could watch them make the sauce and added the bruschetta. It did not disappoint. The food quality is the same as it was a few years ago. The staff is incredibly welcoming and attentive, and the location couldn’t be beat. Our server, Stephania, was incredible and funny and prompt and kind.
We are back home again in Indiana now where the snow is falling and they’re calling for blustery conditions the next couple days and it makes me miss that pasta on the beach even more.

While driving north, I glanced at the map and noticed the intriguing name: “Why Not.” That was all the convincing I needed to pull over and check it out!
I found the people to be incredibly welcoming and friendly. It’s the kind of place where you instantly feel comfortable. And the food? Absolutely amazing.
I was initially skeptical when I saw their burger with eggs on the menu, but I decided to take the plunge. Trust me, if you ever visit, you won’t regret ordering it! What an amazing place with equally amazing food

I cannot recommend this restaurant enough! It was definitely the highlight of my trip. The beach view while you eat is just gorgeous. The food here is the best i had. The service is excellent, everyone is so kind and helpful. I can’t say enough great things, just come try it yourself!!! The coffee is so good. The breakfast is A1 and the shrimp Alfredo is AMAZING!!!

Legit the best gnocchi I have ever eaten in my life. I love pasta and gnocchi and all things like it. I like to try gnocchi when restaurants have it and sometimes it’s pretty good. This was heavenly joy in my face. So light and delicious. The sauce was perfect. I’m sad we don’t live nearby. We weren’t planning on coming back but I am now trying to figure out when we can come back.
The pesto was good too. The seafood linguine was good, but the gnocchi was by far the best. We sat outside on the beach front so the view was great. We were seated right away and the server was nice too. Excellent 5 star Italian restaurant on the beach. Go if you can, save me a seat!
