Looking for a scenic, maritime-inspired eatery? Visit the newly opened Boathouse at the Riverside in Fort Lauderdale. The dock-and-dine experience is the newest addition to the historic Riverside Hotel's signature dining concepts.
Inspired by the coastal flavors of the Mediterranean, the menu features an array of small plates, hearty main course options and libations galore – including a selection of wine curated by Sommelier Rebekah Pushckor.
Executive Chef Toby Joseph displays his talent for blending flavors in unexpected ways in the ingredient-driven menu. Chef De Cuisine Alia Asher and Pastry Chef Annabel Asher-Solly also collaborated on the menu.
Expect classic dishes like Spiced Oven Baked Baby Back Ribs and Oven Roasted Wings. Hot tapas include the Herb Crusted Lamb Chop, complete with charred endive, heirloom tomato and mint, and the Paella Negra, with octopus, mussels and chorizo. Cold tapas options include Pickled Mussels, with red pepper mayo and fried crostini, and Fruta De Mer, with squid, octopus, shrimp, lime and flatbread.
The Boathouse Board offers a selection of two meats and cheeses, with choices like serrano ham, duck prosciutto and aged coppa as well as fresh mozzarella, labneh, feta or aged cheddar.
The waterside setting is designed to evoke the spirit of the Mediterranean, and – with 102 outdoor seats, 52 indoor seats and a bar/lounge – there's a water view from nearly every table. Thanks to the dock space, you can arrive by land or by sea.
Boathouse at the Riverside is located at 620 S.E. Fourth St., Fort Lauderdale. For more information, call 954-377- 5494 or visit boathouseriverside.com.
