plan2travel Posted March 2, 2014 #1 Share Posted March 2, 2014 We are staying at the Renaissance on 17th for one night pre-cruise in May. Have only been there once before and ate at Bimini Boat Yard which we enjoyed. Have read that there are lots of restaurants within walking distance but we did not walk around as we arrived at night. One in our party has mobility issues. What are the restaurants close enough to walk to for lunch and dinner? A half mile is probably our limit. Any places close by that would be good for breakfast? Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eng23 Posted March 2, 2014 #2 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Look at the second "Sticky" from the top of this page. Click on it and you will find a list and links to many of the restaurants in the Ft. Lauderdale area. There are quite a few on SE 17th Street. As you state you have a person with mobility problems might using a taxi be a good option for you?

plan2travel Posted March 2, 2014 Author #3 Share Posted March 2, 2014 Thank you for your input. Yes, a taxi is always an option. Walking is just easier if the restaurants really are close to the hotel. We just aren't familiar with the area. I was also wondering what might be nearby for breakfast. Thanks again.

I'm not a big breakfast person and I usually stay at the Embassy Suites on 17th Street and sometimes have the included breakfast there. Otherwise I'm good with going to Starbucks.

royalcruz Posted March 3, 2014 #5 Share Posted March 3, 2014 Across the parking lot is Bravo Italiano and a few upscale fast food places: Shula Burger, Pei Wei, and Chipotle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kittys Posted March 4, 2014 #7 Share Posted March 4, 2014 We stayed at the Renassiance last month. We ate at a good breakfast place on 17th street called The Harbor Cafe. It was on the other side of 17th street from the hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunelm Posted March 4, 2014 #8 Share Posted March 4, 2014 I second "Bravo's." If you like fish, "Kelly's Landing" is a restaurant frequented by the locals and is easily walked to from your hotel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
