Our first experience was about a month ago and we were verty pleasantly impressed. Only downside was that they don't take reservations so I would suggest getting there around 6pm for prompt seating. Worth any wait, however, as the food and presentations are outstanding. more

My wife and I tried Canyon for our eleventh wedding anniversary. What a pleasant surprise. The reviews on trip advisor were fantastic so we thought we would give it a go. We have tried other high end eateries in the area, The Capital Grill, The Tower Club, Armadillo Cafe, just to name a few. Canyon blows them away. We just... more

Maybe this is the best Ft. Lauderdale has to offer.. but it really isn't as great as everyone is writing on here. We got there at 6:30p.m. and had an hour wait. If this place is as great as everyone says it is then it's well worth it. We got 2 Prickly Pear Margarita - for $11 each they were... more

We've lived in New York for many years and had tried so many great restauaurants in Manhattan but this is one of the best experience. The food was very fresh and delicious, especially... more

I don't think the chef was trying to be rude serving up this meal, but it was poorly done and certainly not woth the 50 dollars each, plus tip, we paid. Our poblano chili appetizer was served stuffed with a bland goat cheese and with a side of canned beans that hadn't even been heated up. Similary, the sauce for... more

After a quick search of the 594 restaurants in our new hometown of Fort Lauderdale, FL, my husband and I decided never to repeat restaurants to keep things fresh. Canyon is now an exception to our strict rule. From the romantic secluded tables, to the perfectly cooked scallop appetizer (you could chew it with your tongue!) to the dulce de... more

We read the reviews on Trip advisor and thought we would try it. We were delighted with the prompt service and spectacular food. A little expense and the place looked like it was run by hippies. But again, the food was fantastic more
