GastroBar Latino — Restaurant in Fort Lauderdale

Will keep this quick. Stopped for a quick meal on our way to the airport, almost missed it but thanks for the Colombian flag outside I was able see it.

Food was great, good taste, good portion and good price, however we were informed a lot of the menu was not available, no pork or soups for that day.

Service was decent, nothing to rave but also nothing to complain, food came out fast but granted we were the only two customers there. Drinks took way too long and we were sitting at the bar.

There was only one other table eating, and two loud chicks at the bar, and around 4pm. Im so glad we were done, as I would have hated to try and eat and have a conversation with that. Aside from that, the building is beautiful and it's nice and dark in there. The music kills an otherwise chill Cuban vibe. Costs $55 for my dad (arroz con Pollo $18) and my dish ($24), which was a little expensive but an unforgettable meal for Me. Didn't realize they add gratuity and...

My husband and I were searching for a new spot to have lunch. We drove by Gastrobar-Latino and decided to try it. We will most certainly be back again! Our server Renata was amazing! She ensured no foods contained any allergens for me and recommended a great beer for my husband to try! The music was really nice and created a nice ambiance while we ate. I ordered the whole fish and it might just be my go-to meal when make our return trips here! If you’re looking for a new place-visit...
