East City Grill, Fort Lauderdale

No matter the price tag, this delightful oceanfront restaurant draws crowds, thanks as much to its breathtaking views of the Atlantic just across the street as to the excellent fusion cooking available here. A chic crowd frequents this restaurant along the Fort Lauderdale beach strip, dining indoors in a minimalist atmosphere aglitter with crystal and white linen or outside on a covered deck that can be blocked from the breezes, if need be. Candles glitter, a professional staff is in charge, and the food is ethereal. Asian flavors are evident but the innovative cuisine generally defies simple explanation. The menu offers, for instance, a wood-seared, soft-shelled crab. Overall, the East City Grill is elegant, chic and flavorful.
