Botanic At The Goodland

I had a lobster ravioli which was delicious and plentiful. My husband had a flavorful grouper dish served over polenta. Restaurant name is no longer Botanic but now La Fuga. Waitress was very sweet. Drinks were fine. Would def. return to this restaurant- nice that we ate poolside. This place will be full in season.

I went because I was in the area and needed to eat and I had about an hour. It was pouring rain and when I arrived, I thought they were closed because there wasn't anyone in the restaurant. Someone came up and said they were open and took me to a table. I looked through the menu and placed my order. I only ordered a sandwich. Then I waited. And waited. And waited. And waited. I was just getting ready to leave when they finally brought my sandwich. By this time, I had very little time left to eat and get back to work. I wolfed it down (it was okay, nothing great) and ate some of the fries (I hadn't ordered them, they apparently came with the sandwich), paid the overpriced bill and left. The food is much more expensive than it should be, the service is entirely too slow and the food is only okay. No reason why I should ever return.

Great service and the food was delicious! I was impressed by everything! Loved having the option of sitting inside or outside by the pool! Can't wait to come back! Visit my ig @eatzwithsweetz for more foodie footage!

Staff was incredible. Very pricey for a limited menu and food was okay at best. My sons pasta looked amazing on the kids menu.

Tucked away just off the beach between Sunrise and Las Olas is where you can find the Kimpton Goodland Hotel. Inside is its recently opened restaurant, Botanic. We 've been wanting to try it out for a while. This morning while walking the dogs and dodging an impending rainstorm, we found ourselves in front of it. We walked in and were given the friendliest welcome. The host seated us poolside and told us a little about the history of the building including the pool we were dining beside which was built in 1949! Our waitress said we can call her Bahama Mama . She was so peppy and upbeat. While we looked over the menu, she came back out with our coffee and a bowl of water for our doggos. Hubby felt his coffee wasn 't very good, so I asked Bahama Mama if it was a fresh pot. She cheerfully said she was gonna fix us both a fresh cup. She came back and said she brewed us each an Americano coffee made with espresso and water. One sip, and we both agreed it was absolutely delish! Bahama Mama then told me if I like that, I 'd love her latte. Lattes are my love language, so I said bring it on. She asked what kind of milk I like, to which I replied oat milk, and she disappeared. Shortly after, she came back with a beautiful latte she made for me. We drank our coffee and enjoyed the view while waiting for our food to come out. Hubby ordered The Good Omelette (made with chicken sausage, bell peppers, Jack cheese and pico de gallo) with an everything bagel. I got the Avocado Toast with two poached eggs. We enjoyed our meals, but I will say the portion sizes seemed rather modest. Hubby 's omelette lacked fluffiness, and did not contain much of the chicken sausage. The prices were on par with what you 'd find in the area. Selection was pretty good as well. Overall- tasty eats with great service, view and vibe. I also like that it 's off the beaten path and not a beach tourist trap.
