"J'y ai dîné avec ma famille après avoir reçu des critiques élogieuses du restaurant. Notre serveur était très agréable, mais légèrement incompétent. Il ne connaissait pas beaucoup de détails sur le menu lorsqu'on lui a demandé des détails. L'une des entrées a été servie sans aucun des 3 ingrédients (olives aux agrumes en conserve et persil frit - servi sans persil frit - pas la faute du serveur). Le serveur a présenté le spécial comme apéritif, mais c'était en fait un apéritif. Mon plat principal (ou devrais-je dire "entrée") a été servi environ 5 minutes après que le reste de ma table ait déjà servi leurs plats principaux. J'ai pu commander un autre plat principal quand il était clair que j'avais commandé un apéritif, mais d'ici là, le reste de la table était terminé avec le plat principal. Le reste des gens à ma table ont apprécié la nourriture et les bières étaient délicieuses, mais dans l'ensemble, mon expérience n'a pas été formidable."

"This was our first experience dining outdoors, and I'm not sure if we'll do it again. While the food was, as always, quite good, the portion sizes seemed significantly smaller, and the prices have increased. Unfortunately, the fans weren’t directed at us, although there were some behind us. When we asked our server about it, we were told they were broken, which was disappointing since we expected better airflow. Additionally, the lights flickered on and off at least four times, which was a bit strange. Although the extra lighting was nice, it would turn off just as we got used to it. On a positive note, our server was very friendly and attentive."

"My first visit to this charming restaurant was today and it did not disappoint. The breakfast we had was delightful, with delicious food such as vegetable omelettes and fried potatoes. The staff, especially the owner Nicho, were incredibly welcoming and hospitable. They continuously refilled our tea cups as we savored our meal. Although the food and service were exceptional, it was their warm smiles and hospitality that truly stood out. This quaint and cozy spot in Margate has earned a 5-star rating from me. I will definitely be returning. Thank you to the wonderful staff at this restaurant."

"I had the fried shrimp platter (Friday special) which was outstanding. Perfect fried shrimp and my two sides were corn on the cob and coleslaw, both excellent. Excellent service. My only comment is that it was absolutely freezing in the dining area, so definitely have a sweater with you and wear pants, but otherwise, a perfect casual great seafood dining experience! I’ll definitely be back to try the lobster roll on Thursday! Parking: There was plenty of parking at the time I was there on a Friday evening."

"La Vie Lebanese restaurant in Pompano Beach (281 S. Pompano Parkway, but the address is confusing because it is at the corner of a long strip plaza at the intersection of Powerline Rd. and N. Course Dr. . I have never been to Lebanon so I am not well versed in the middle-eastern culture except for Greek food. Therefore, I don’t know the authenticity of Lebanese food, but there were a couple of middle-eastern families with women wearing head scarves seated in the restaurant – when country-natives sponsor one of their restaurants, that is usually a sign that the establishment serves close to authentic down home cooking of that country. With my ignorance to Lebanese gastronomy, I’m sharing my humble experience based on what my party ate at La vie last Sunday night. In short, we loved most everything and were impressively delighted by the flavors that were elevated by a cumin spice dominance. The inside atmosphere did not project that of The Arabian Nights, but our server said that they do have an exotic veil dancer that performs on certain nights… Sunday night was not one of those nights. The vaulted ceiling of the restaurant looked more to me like an island hut, but the beautiful massive hanging lamps give it what I believe it to be a middle-eastern flair. Our party of 4 regulars do pick at each other’s meals all the time to experience as much as we could wherever we go. The service was outstanding. Upon being seated, our server introduced himself, took our drinks order, and a lady dropped a plate of complimentary seasoned chips and hummus. A few minutes later, we ordered the Mezza Veggie Supreme sample platter made of hummus, tabouleh, baba ghannouj, falafel, and grape leaves along with a basket full of hot air-puffed pita pockets (most delicious which was served about 10 min later with our drinks (perfect . Our entrees came about 10 minutes after we finished the Mezza plate (great timing . Entrees were: Lamb Meatball Tangine, Chicken Kabob, Lamb Tangine, and I ordered the Mixed Grill (a sampler of kabobs: filet minion, chicken, kefta, and mixed vegs. We all agreed that everything was excellent, flavorful, and plentiful except for the chicken which was dry (maybe it was just that night . Another annoying quirk (and a personal peeve of mine is that our Mezza platter had 3 grape leaves and 3 Baba Ghannouj and we were 4 people. This should be a policy of all restaurants for servers to explain that a sampler platter or other appetizers come with a minimum of 2 or countable items. The server should acknowledge the number of people in the party and suggests to add more to equal the party atvan additional cost. Lastly, one dinner plate was chipped (not that was the end of the world. We did not bring it to our server’s attention, but that should have been noticed by the chef or the server before sending the order out . C’est la Bonne Vie, but not quite La Vie En Rose. I give a 4 stars because it was surprisingly a great experience. Will I go back? Surely."
