  I really enjoyed this hide away restaurant on the small plane airstrip at Executive Airport. It's not easy to find but what a treat.  I came with my son and two grandsons and they also loved it.
  Parking is easy, food is fantastic and the staff were especially sweet with my boys. I arrived first and yes, they seated me without my entire party...and we were given a window seat for the boys. Family arrived soon after and their place settings were ready with children's menus, activities and crayons .
  
  The children's menu was perfect and my son and I ordered almond brioche French toast and eggs Benedict. The children's food came out first and they were happy. While waiting, we saw many small planes taking off and landing. We also saw two helicopters land right in front of our window!
  
  I forgot to take a picture of our entire meal because of all the excitement so these pics represent a portion of what we were served. My son and o shared our plates so we each got a good taste. The portions were large and the eggs Benedict came with delicious breakfast potatoes. They were small potatoes quartered and roasted perfectly and salted just right. The eggs Benedict were amazing. The English muffins were toasted perfectly, eggs and Hollandaise were the best. Probably the best I've ever had.
  
  I can't say enough about this French toast. Again the best I ever tasted. There were six large bread halves cut triangular. I could barely finish two. Each of us were served a small cube of their specialty item on our dish to taste.. fried bread pudding. Honestly we were so full.. I took it home for later along with some French toast.
  
  We also each had a cappuccino served with a stick of rock candy. They did have specialty cocktails and their Mimosa was one. I saw many people drinking these.
  
  Prices? A little high but so worth it. I'll definitely be back.

  Cute little hidden gem located in Ft. Lauderdale.
  Me and a co worker went here on a normal Saturday. The place wasn't packed once we came in but throughout the morning the crowd definitely picked up.
  
  The place is extremely hidden, hint possibly why I've never seen it or ever heard of it before my coworker mentioned it to me. The menu is your typical breakfast goodies pancakes, steak, waffles etc. The servers were all very friendly and wait time was extremely fast. For those who are familiar with brunch I always say its not fully brunch if there's no mimosas. But to my suprise and happiness mimosas are available on the menu as well. The pricing at this restaurant can range from $5.00 to $30.00 dollars with a pretty big variety of items.
  
  For those who like a sweet treat after breakfast the Jet Runway Cafe offers a sweet bread (i literally cannot think of the name and its so freaking easy ugh). But anywho it was De-Lic-ious!
  
  This place is literally inside the airport grounds and you can see small private jets take off while you eat. Such a fun and unusual place. I recommend it for those visiting Ft. Lauderdale it's a cool place to bring friends and or family.

  This place is incredible! Went at lunchtime and the place was completely packed.. I recommend getting there early because it gets completely full at 12.. I waited 20 mins to be seated but they have a nice area where to sit and wait.
  
  Parking is easy because it is located on a commercial warehouse parking so there was plenty of parking.
  
  The views of this place are amazing because you're able to see all the jets super close!
  
  Food was incredible, my favorite dish was the salmon that was completely delicious, steak was fine (not bad but not the best I've had, I would order salmon or something else next time I go), flatbread was also delicious and so were the coconut shrimp.
  
  I do not recommend ordering french fries because they were too greasy, smashed potatoe was completely delicious and so was the cole slaw.
  
  Service is good but is a little bit slow because of the amout of people, they're super busy. Place looked clean and neat.
  
  Definitely coming back again! A really good place to eat!

  This is such a unique place to eat, you heart literally on the runway of an airport! I had the tuna salad melt which was cooked perfectly on a delicious rye bread, served with french fries. My friend had the pretzel burger which was a burger topped with macaroni and cheese and served on a pretzel bun. She enjoyed it but it was a little more cooked than what she had asked for. It's very cool watching planes take off and land while you're eating but be aware that there might be a wait as this is a very popular place. Looking forward to returning there!

  First time visiting. A must go!
  
  Parking it's easy as restaurant is located in commercial warehouse complex so plenty of parking. The view of this place is amazing looking at the runways of Fort Lauderdale executive.
  
  We were seated in less than 10 minutes. Went for business lunch. Ambience is casual, no loud noise and mostly business people having lunch and a couple of corporate parties so great for business meeting.
  
  We ordered the steak quinoa salad and home lime salmon.
  
  Steak quinoa salad: great. On the light side for steak lovers. Steak was tender and flavorful.
  
  Salmon: extremely good. Unique flavor accompanied by mashed potatoes(light portion) and vegetables so great for low carb diet. The mix of flavors towards the acidic side mix perfect with the well cooked salmon.
  
  Our server was Luanda. Helped with recommendations and checked on us frequently.
  
  We didn't have any dessert. I ran into business partners while I was there and one comment they did say is that every single thing is good so... there you go!
