Marina 84 Sports Bar & Grill - Fort Lauderdale — Restaurant in Dania Beach

This review is for three separate visits to this establishment, one prior and two following our cruise.

Upon arrival, the parking lot was overcrowded with motorcycles, patrons and Sheriff deputies, arrived on bike night. Our flight was delayed so arrival was at roughly 10:00 pm. After check-in, attempted to dine at 10:30pm, bartender stated they were done serving food for the evening. Ordered a beer with a shot, came in plastic cups due to no glassware.

Return from cruise:

Lunch; every item we attempted to order initially was out of stock. We finally found something they had, ordered the fish tacos, mozzarella stick and fries. Fries were mediocre, mozzarella sticks had an off taste. Fish tacos were full and flaky, but were off as well. Asked the waitress, she informed me that since they were out of Mahi Mahi, the fish was substituted with Cod. Wasn’t informed of this when I placed my order.

Dinner; Establishment had SNF on so loud, patrons were asking for volume to be turned down. They were told no, so they left. During halftime, music was playing, it was even louder. Our waitress finally turned it down after so many complaints, was momentarily for halftime. Same issue with ordering, dinner as before, more items unavailable.

There was an employee slamming tables, leaving chairs in the aisle, and acted unprofessional, it ended up being the manager.

Our waitress, Kathryn, was exceptional working with what she had.

Overview: I suggest you avoid this establishment as a whole, unless you have no alternate. Overpriced, under seasoned, and defiantly not worth your...

Food 4 stars. Bartending staff 5 stars. Our restaurant server…1 lonely star. … Like many others at the Rodeway Inn Ft Lauderdale we stayed here in preparation for a cruise. It only made sense to try out the pub/restaurant attached to the Inn for dinner and a few drinks. Things went very quickly south after our server (M.L) took our drink order and promised to be back with our drinks and to take our food order. She did indeed return to our table, but it was like she’d never seen us before..”Hi! Can I get you something to drink?” Um..what? Us: “We just ordered our drinks from you, but we’d like to order some food” ML: “Oh. What do you want to drink?” Us: We repeated our drink order ML: “ok. Back in a minute with those drinks!” Us: “Wait! We need food too! Nachos and Chicken Quesadilla please” ML: Ok!! (Very bubbly personality) … Fifteen minutes later… … ML: “Here’s the nachos!” Us: “Uh…great..are our drinks coming? And what about the quesadillas?” ML: “oh! Sorry..what do you want to drink?” … 5 minutes later…”what kind of Fajitas did you want?” Us: Chicken QUESADILLAS, not fajita’s!!!!” … 😶 … OMG. This went on ALL NIGHT! … So…The food (when it was finally ordered correctly) was great! … The service in the restaurant…not so much. … Honestly, we treated this as “dinner and a comedy show” because it was the only way we could keep our sanity! … The bartender Crystal did an AWESOME job of getting things right that were going totally off the rails. Cudos to Crystal for saving...

We were in town for work and wanted to catch Monday Night Football. We walked in and basically no one was there, we should have taken that as a sign. CBS was on every TV, and Ed Sheeran was playing. I had to double check that this was a “Sports bar” because you wouldn’t know it by walking in.

After asking, they put on ESPN and even turned on the audio after a bit.

We ordered drinks. My colleague was informed they couldn’t make any cocktails off their menu. (No explanation as to why.) My other colleague ordered a Miller Lite only to later be informed they were out (both of draft and bottles). I later tried to order a Michelob Ultra (listed on menu) and was informed they were out.

I was ready to order wings, only to be informed, you guessed it, they are out. She recommended the nachos so I gave them a try. There were probably 10 chips that came out SMOTHERED in queso and toppings. The chips that were there, were actually charred and black on the corners (too long under the heat lamp?). We finished the chips and they brought us some more after I asked, pointing out that we still had about a pound of toppings and no chips to go with them.

Our waitress wasn’t attentive and spent most of the time getting her duo lingo and tik tok im (volume up) at another booth.

I don’t understand how this place is open and strongly encourage everyone else to find another place to...
