I love this place. It was my first time here. A friend of ours recommended that my wife and I come here and I'm glad we did. We sat outside by the waterfront. Glad there is valet parking because it's right by the beach and there is not too much parking near. Our server was awesome I think it was Jason S. Let me tell you I am a sucker for Good customer service since that is lost with all this technology. He made sure my drink was perfect since they didn't have the Roses Lime Juice. Gave us nice Cold towels for our face because it was Hot and the sun was blazing. I would recommend this place and I will be going back. The food was delicious. We had a dozen oysters and a lobster sandwich. Let me tell you they were not skimpy on the lobster. Keep up the good work "Be Nice"
What an amazing place! The atmosphere is awesome, the food was out of this world and the service was excellent! We sat outside on the deck , enjoying all the yachts and beautiful sun set! Oysters on the half sell were some of the best I’ve ever had!
Had the crab cakes entree and lobster roll entree. Fresh food!!! Great atmosphere. Been this area for years and never realized a hidden restaurant. Will be back for more!!
The food there was awesome. From the scallops, to the crab claws and oysters...WOW! Makes me wish I was a local, and that I could have it all the time.
The oysters were fresh and flavorful. The heat on the crab claws was perfect. The grilled scallops were among the best I've ever had. The staff was friendly, courteous, and made some great suggestions, too.
Can't wait to make another trip down to eat there again!
We came here from Kansas and would highly recommend this place very good food and fresh oysters!
The people were so friendly our waiters Conor and Cory so friendly and courteous. I recommend to any one who ever comes down to Florida try this place out.
The staff was excellent and attentive. We had a wonderful stone crab appetizer that was suggested by our waiter and were fortunate enough to arrive on Paella night. I'd go back in a second. Thank you.
7 kinds of oysters-great wine and beer choices-great service-beautiful location on the water!
Great service . I love the sushi tower and the scoobie's . The server recommend both . We had a great time
I have been a customer for several years. Quality is always there, My wife and I just love the atmosphere and the view on the marina. The oysters are sublime and the service is efficient. What can we say more! 🍸🍷🍺🥂👌😎.
Food is amazing! I had the grouper special. It was topped with snow crab, served over smashed potatoes with lobster gravy! The bar tenders and wait staff are fun and friendly! Love this place!
Oh my I love this place. I felt so comfortable and at ease at this place the food was fresh the waiters were so attentive. The service was just amazing. I will definitely be back.
From the oysters, to the scoobies, to the steak....everything was really good. The service was good and the price was right. I will be back
Just had the best service in all of Florida from Tommy on the dock!
Great atmosphere, amazing oysters and mussels, attentive personable staff. Will make this place a must-do on future trips to the area.
G&B Oyster Bar is a companion restaurant to Coconuts, and we grabbed a quick beer at the bar while we awaited our seats at Coconuts.
The customer service was outstanding, and the drinks were great.
G&B Oyster Bar servers the same menu as Coconuts.
Do yourself a favor and give G&B Oyster Bar a try; you will not be disappointed!

I love seafood, so this place was first on our list and we were nothing but pleased with everything from the great service to the delicious food! we will definitely be back the next time we come to Fort Lauderdale. we had raw oysters , lobster fried rice, and the lobster cheese fries. They all were a 10/10 .

I have been coming to G&B for over 15 years. It’s been a few years since I’ve been since the pandemic started and I live in Canada. That being said it’s always been the same food and the same service. This time we went they changed their formula for the lobster rolls and discontinued the alligator ribs. The were two staple items that I have literally enjoyed consistently for over a decade and was always part of the itinerary whenever we would visit florida (usually 1-2 times
Per year). The lobster roll was packed with lobster as usual but it lost its charm being served in the little rolls with cheese and bacon. This was now served cold and was a more mature taste but it lacked it previous flavour. The lack of alligator ribs was also a missed favourite but changes happen. The grilled oysters were delicious and had a good kick to them. To top it off the coconut cheesecake with berry drizzle was phenomenal. Staff taking the booking at the front were somewhat unpleasant but our waitress was great and helpful with making suggestions. This has been the most consistent restaurant I’ve ever visited so it was disappointing to see the menu changed after over 10 years of having the exact same items that we grew to love. If you are patient enough to wait for the outdoor seating with a view, it’s worth it. Expect minimum 30 min wait times on almost any day or time you visit.
As always great food, the services really good. The Lobster Club amazing😋😋
Always a great time. They get BUSY but the staff is built for it and know how to be efficient. We love sitting at the bar and having Brad and Taylor to make us feel at home!
There's lots of things to enjoy, on this particular trip we started with spinach artichoke dip. Let me say I understand that it has been on menus for the past 20 years, but this stuff is made in house, full of spinach and artichokes, and not thick or goopy. Served with a nice thin chip that pairs well. I then enjoyed a delicious calamari steak with chorizo sofrito, that's something you never see on a menu and is extremely tender and worth every bite. The fresh oysters, delicious seafood, friendly service, and great location are always a good reason to visit!
You can't go wrong with lots of things on the menu and don't forget there is a happy hour!
Of course the best sunset and food in the area, we will be back for sure!
Remember as they say, Be Nice.
Oysters, fresh fish, and valet parking. Same place as coconuts which was a little confusing. Kids chicken tenders had odd breading. Oysters selection was from VA, NY, and MA. Sushi grade tuna was presented well. Beer selection limited, four on tap.

This was the first restaurant we hit up when we got to Fort Lauderdale. The streets in this town are very bizarre. I somehow missed the entrance to the restaurant parking lot three times and had to circle around. there isn't any free parking around so you might as well use the complimentary valet and tip the valet service, we were lucky enough to come on a Thursday night without any wait. There were still a lot of people however, we were able to get a table right away. I really wanted to give this a five star, but there were some things that detracted from the experience. I had read a lot of the reviews about the wonderful assortment of fresh oysters, and I was not disappointed. There was six different types of oysters from the East Coast. We got an assortment of all of them, and they were every bit as good as other reviews. The only disappointing thing is as some other reviewer's mentioned were very varying size of the same oysters. The entrée that I selected was the fresh grouper which was the fresh catch of the day with crab lump meat. I was expecting more of a refined dish since it's a market price food item and it cost 42 dollars. It did come with a side which was tomato and balsamic vinegar, which is probably one of the best that I've had in a long time. The actual main dish look like a grilled fish with the lump crab meat thrown on, and this mysterious yellow sauce. It didn't reflect a $42 dish. We got clam linguine for the kids to split since there's no way to kids would be able to eat an entire adult entrée. They recommended if we wanted to add shrimp to the dish and my wife felt guilty about it so she said yes. The added five extra shrimp for a total of $13.75. The Keylime pie is definitely a hands-down winner for dessert. Overall, I'm happy that the food that I was served was fresh but they could work on some presentation for the main entrées. Our server was really nice and was patient and explaining the different menu specials however, it got very busy and she never got back around to refilling the water for our table but who can blame her on a busy night
I ate here twice on my vacation. Food is great, giving 4 stars because of the price. It's not fine dining, but a tourist area so I guess it's justified. The Scoobys are amazing, tuna dish. Oysters fresh. Always busy!
What an awesome little gem we found here. We were actually going to the restaurant next door and due to the wait of almost 2 hours we decided to go to this restaurant next to them. And we are so glad we did. Everything was delicious, fresh, and very rich in flavor. Their drinks were also really good, we had their signature blueberry mojito and it was to die for. Their dessert was also very yummy and rich in flavor. We will definitely be going back when we visit again. Their customer service was really awesome even from the fact that is gets really busy. We recommend their oysters and their lobster.

Everything about this place was great.
Judy was a great help with recommendations.
The grilled octopus was cooked perfectly, the oysters are super fresh and flavorful.
The crawfish bread is full of flavor and the draft beer was extremely cold and refreshing.
I cant wait to come back and try other items.
I had a great time at Coconuts Wayside and G&B Oyster Bar. I was in a hurry with little time and didn't think I had time for an off airport meal and would have to eat at FLL. Glad I took the risk. This is my favorite place to eat when in Ft. Lauderdale. I love it because it's close to the airport and with valet parking and dining at the bar, I can stop here drop my keys eat and leave with ease. Or stick around if ai have the time.
I had the Surf N" Surf Oysters and the Blackened Butterflied Red Snapper as the Local Fialsh of the Day w/Sausage & Sage Stuffing. I added an Eapresso Martini. Every thing was delicious. The atmosphere was perfect for an early Friday evening meal. The female bartender suggested meal choices and I was very happy with the service and her suggestions.
Always a great place to enjoy a meal and some drinks.
Sat at the bar top by the open garage door. Even though it's like 90° outside the A/C did the job and it was a comfortable temperature. The bartenders were friendly and informative. Had one of each of the raw oysters and they were each delicious. The menu gives good descriptions of how each oyster tastes. I had a caipirinha. G&B modified the classic recipe by adding sprite. Untraditional but still tasty. The Scoobies, buttery lobster claws served with bread practically melted in my mouth. I would try it again if I'm ever back in the area.
Tried to get into Coconut’s but there was a 75 minute wait and so glad there was. Decided to go to G & B’s instead and oh so glad we did. All the the food we had including oysters & clams on half shell, conch chowder, crispy snapper (fish of day special) and linguine & clam sauce were all fantastic. May even go for back for second night in a row to try some other dishes. Oh, and the wait staff is super friendly as well! A true fem and must stop if in S. Ft.
Lauderdale!!!
Reviews seemed good and I was in the mood for seafood. This spot did not disappoint! Had a Tito's vodka mojito, coconut shrimp, blackened mahi, and the coconut cheesecake. I enjoyed it all. Also tried the shrimp and conch fritters and they were not my thing. I would definitely dine here again. Sat at the bar and the lady and two men there all took great care of me and everyone around me.
5 stars! One of my favorite spots in FLL! Food is always so fresh and flavorful. Have to start with raw oysters - always great selection! Crab empanadas were amazing. Lobster scampi was luxurious. Try to get a seat right at the bar. Cheers!
Staff was incredible. At least three people constantly checking on us. The manager dropped by just to say hello. Took the opportunity to say what a great job his staff was doing. The paella was AMAZING! Great experience!
Thanks to G&Bs, I now like oysters! I love coming here and trying the new oysters on the menu. Everything seems to be super freshly made with some rotating limited quantity specialties like the paella. I've only ever sat in the bar area and not the main restaurant, but the is a great place to come have a drink and meet up with some friends over delicious food. And try the scooby snacks (not on the menu, crab claws in a bath of garlic deliciousness) you won't be disappointed! *Update: Scooby snacks are now on the menu!*
Food here is amazing love the lobster dip and of course the oysters are top tier. Customer service is fantastic, we appreciate all the servers👍🏾🤗🦪
