Fins & Things Caribbean Seafood Bar & Grill 5100 North State Road 7, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33319

"It's so hard to find good Jamaican food, Best spontaneous decision we made in a long time. We had curried goat, fish, BBQ, breadfruit. Everything tasted amazing and clean. No ethnic fatigue afterwards. We're headed back this weekend!"

"I always tell myself I'm going to order something other than the Morgan Harbour brown stew fish because the whole menu is amazing but I don't lol. Dining is spectacular! Great service. Super clean and fresh place. Some nights I think they do Karaoke too. I would actually do a family dinner or small event here."

"First off the food here is always amazing!! I ordered online, the website told me it will be ready in 45 minutes. I showed up about 1 hour later, sat at the bar, all the servers and bartenders ignored me. After about 15 minutes I called out to the bartender and told her I came to pick up my order, she told me that the pick up counter is in the back by the sign that says pick up. I didn't see it because I wasn't expecting them to have a designated pick up area. I go to the pick up area, wait another 7-10 minutes for someone to come get my information. I waited about another 15 minutes for them to bring out my food, the waiter told me 1 of my fish was not ready yet. He went back to get my 2nd fish, which looks nothing like the pictures. I asked him about it, he was unsure so he asked the manager and she told him to go check in the back. Then he came back and said my order was correct. I showed him and the manager the blackened snapper picture online and asked why the fish they brought out look completely different, the manager said it's the same fish it just looks different. I spent over 40 minutes waiting for an order that I ordered online an hour before I showed up. The food is very delicious. Service is terrible! I don't know if the food is worth the wait because my time is precious!"

"Overall the food was good BUT the service was exceptionally poor. We arrived at 8pm. A waitress didnt come to our table until 8:15pm. She didnt introduce herself but asked what we wanted. As I opened the menu, she walked off and never came back. Someone who didnt work there ended up taking our order. She apologized on behalf of the rude waitress but the damage was already done. At the end of the night we tipped the lady and spoke to the manager who didnt even discount the food. If you go to this establishment, make sure you brace yourself because the service of that one waitress with the short hair was beyond despicable!!!"

"0 stars for service. So this place is very popular and the food is advertised to be great among the reviews. However, on my very FIRST experience here, service was very POOR from ONE individual, a female waitress, Margaret. My friends placed their food and drink orders but she totally messed up on both. She failed to confirm if the daquiri was alcoholic and didn't put in the order for my friend's Long Island Iced Tea. So she brought us our salads and I asked if they had pepper. She said, What kind? I said, Black Pepper. So she's staring at me like I'm crazy asking for black pepper. I'm like this is a restaurant why wouldn't you have black pepper. So of course as our party of 10 staggered in, they waited more than 10 minutes to be given menus and have their orders taken. When I asked for a separate check, the waitress appeared shocked and proclaimed she confirmed with someone else that all orders would be together. So of course she had attitude when I politely asked for my check separately and my friends also did. I waited at least 30-40 min more to receive my check for my bill. I personally DO NOT RECOMMEND this place. This should've been a great experience. But it so underwhelming. So she brought me my check and gratuity is fixed at 18%. I kindly asked her to have it removed. She made a loud sigh (huff) and walked away with an attitude. So I still sat waiting on my check. Still waiting... Still had attitude...but whatever, it isn't that serious. I spoke with the manager Kendall about the gratuity being removed from my check. He gave me this speech about how ut is Florida law for parties of 10 to have 18% gratuity added to the bill. I didn't bother to rebuttle because it wasn't worth my time since what I took from his speech was that "we take care of our employees more than the customers although the customers put money in our pockets". I honestly don't understand why people think you should tip for BAD SERVICE. Granted, I SHOULDN'T have to tip your employee for her poor attitude, rudeness and poor skills of being a waitress, regardless if it is her first week (used as an excuse repeatedly, but isn't one that should be used. Were you not hired for your experience?) I don't mind paying the establishment for the work i.e. the food, but her, paying that tip, she did not deserve it. By God's grace, she was tipped tonight! She was very uncouth, rude, arguing with customers...my friends that is, had a poor attitude, displayed her attitude in body language, eye contact and everything. Just overall not qualified as a people person or equipped to be a waitress. We all want good service and deserve service. But she is the face of the company and should act accordingly. A positive attitude should always be shown. You should never display a poor attitude nor speak rudely to a customer or use excuses to justify how poorly you feel. She should ask herself if the service she is providing to myself and my frienkind of service she wants to receive. I'm still waiting on my check...smh. I honestly had GOOD intentions for this place, but I WILL NEVER EVER EVER NEVER EVER NEVER EVER COME BACK. Like I tell prople I'm GOOD. Go for drinks and music. Eat at the bar. If you want to dine, do so at your own discretion. Food review: I ordered the Port Royal (Escoveitch) fish with fried bammie, peppers and onions in vinegar sauce. Also rice and peas and macaroni and cheese. I will say on the Escoveitch fish, it was tender however it was not drenched in the sauce and flavored as such which Caribbean people say is how it should be cooked. The mac and cheese was good, moderate cheese, spicy and sweet. Rice and peas were moist. Fried bammie was good. Bar area is slow. They had only one bartender. I waited 10 min trying to water there because my waitress kept ignoring our table and I couldn't ask her for water."
