Evelyn's - Fort Lauderdale, FL

Perched just a stones throw from the Atlantic Ocean, where the sea breeze whispers Michelin guide recomendations through palm trees, and sunsets cast a golden glow over the beach, Evelyn’s at the Four Seasons brings a splash of Mediterranean soul to Fort Lauderdale’s coast. Since opening in late 2022, this oceanfront gem quickly made waves. In 2023 Evelyn's earned the title of Best New Restaurant and Best New Chef Broward by the Miami New Times for its elegant take on Eastern Mediterranean cuisine and effortlessly nautical-chic setting. Where many new formal restaurants of the past have swayed like palm fronds to appease requests for more casual dining in the area, Evelyn's has stayed true to itself. As a result, the restaurant, named after local historical figure and former Bonnet House resident Evelyn Bartlett, has become a favorite, and standout, for those seeking an elevated venue on the beach.

At the helm is Executive Chef Brandon Salomon, a Long Island native whose experience with three-Michelin-starred chef Mauro Colagreco at Mirazur shaped his globally inspired, produce-driven approach. In 2025, Evelyn’s earned a coveted spot on the Michelin Guide’s Recommended list, cementing its reputation as a destination restaurant. On the plate, the Levant regions of Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, Syria and Northern Turkey are well represented through wood-fired seafood & meats, silky homemade mezze and leavened specialties. Chef compliments his dishes with the rich array of spices and unique cooking techniques found in the region, and fuses them with local coastal offerings. One thing guests can look forward to, and notice immediately, is the freshness and authenticity of every ingredient. Inside, the design pairs breezy sea-side elegance with rich textures and floor-to-ceiling views, while the shaded terrace invites long, jovial meals overlooking the waves. Whether you’re sipping a saffron-infused cocktail at the bar or diving into cardamom donuts on the patio, Evelyn’s is where global flavors and seaside luxury meet with style.
