Runway 84 never disappoints and always hits the spot. I have been coming here since my teenage years, and it continues to deliver the same mix of great food and energy that makes it perfect for celebrations. We kicked things off with incredible starters: baked clams oreganata, classic meatballs, wagyu beef carpaccio, and their tableside Caesar. Of course, the fresh bread with garlic and oil on the side is a must. For mains, we shared the chicken Parmesan, the zuppa di pesce loaded with giant shrimp, lobster tail, mussels, and clams, plus the spicy rigatoni, which is a standout every time. To end the night, we went with the birthday girl’s request of the pistachio cake. While she enjoyed it, the rest of us would have preferred their amazing tiramisu or even skipping dessert altogether. Overall, Runway 84 remains a favorite. Always consistent, always delicious, and always the right choice for a night out.

Scott S was an amazing addition to our experience. We expected the food to be great, the ambiance to be on point with the live music but his service and kindness was the cherry on top. We had the 40 oz porterhouse and it was cooked to perfection!

Anthony’s Runway 84 completely exceeded my expectations! From the moment we sat down, our server Seth made the entire experience unforgettable—truly the best service I’ve ever had at a restaurant. I was celebrating my bachelorette, and the staff went above and beyond to make sure it was such a special night for us. The coursed everything with perfect timing, we were never once rushed. We started with the calamari, which was perfectly crisp and flavorful, followed by their table-side Caesar salad that was as entertaining as it was delicious. The pastas were outstanding—the cacio e pepe was rich and authentic, and the spicy rigatoni had the perfect kick. For mains, the steak was cooked to perfection and the chicken parm was hands down one of the best I’ve ever had. We finished with tiramisu, which was the perfect sweet ending to the night. The cocktails were just as impressive as the food—creative, balanced, and so well made. On top of all that, the live music created the perfect atmosphere and really made the night feel like a true celebration. Anthony’s Runway 84 is the full package: incredible food, amazing drinks, a lively vibe, and world-class service. I already wanted to go back before I even left! Make sure you go and make sure you ask for Seth!!

Fantastic- had a client dinner there, 6 of us. We ordered half the menu, everything was great- super reasonably priced too. I was surprised how lively it was on a Tuesday in the summer. They had live music which was a bit loud at first but they dialed it in. You can see in the video we had a little bit of everything. The pastas and the carpaccio really stood out.

I have been wanting to come here since they reopened to see the renovations and the place looks great. We sat on the Dan Marino area. The food portions were very large so we have plenty for lunch tomorrow too. The meatballs appetizer was enough for 4 of us and delicious. The new Cypress room looked great but seems it may be louder. I took customers here that became friends over the many years to l celebrate her birthday. The cannoli was great and loved the firework lights! Can't wait to come back.

Such a vibe. Beautifully done inside, gives that real supper club vibe. It’s loud, it’s fun, great service, amazing live music. A must go when you’re in Fort Lauderdale. Wonderful bar and old school waiters. Great desserts. Reservation is a must

The food at Anthony's was very good. The pasta was delicious; the chicken cutlet was average and a bit dry. We had a very friendly waiter who was trying to be helpful, but we felt rushed, and at one point, he mentioned that we only had 1.5 hours left, so we needed to order everything at once. Aside from that, the restaurant is iconic, the live music was terrific, and the food receives excellent reviews. I would go back, but hopefully, next time we won't feel so rushed.

10/10 experience, I have been waiting for an excuse to come back since the remodel and WOW Anthony’ Runway 84 never disappoints. Our server Rui was beyond impressive with his recommendations to his attentive service. We arrived a little late due to our friends from out of town having car trouble, a quick call to the restaurant ensure no issues upon arrival. The food quality should be studied, the way they are able to dish out gourmet dishes to such a large audience is beyond me. The entire renovation was carefully designed to enhance the experience and it shows. I cannot wait to come back and see Rui again, thank you Anthony’s for setting the standard for good quality Italian.
