Been going to Ernie's since 1977, just recently moved to SoCal and have missed it ever since! Used to be a weekly ride for us on our bikes, great biker restaurant/bar, service is always great. We will definitely miss the place. Our little secret.. always buy a few extra loaves of bread for Sun...

We have been eating here for many years and especially enjoy the Dim Sum. However, the entrees, soups, hot pots, and other specialty dishes are truly Hong Kong authentic. Try the following and you will agree: Salt and Pepper Shrimp (with shell) Clams in Black Bean Sauce Roast Pork Chow Fun (D...

I lived down the street from "Dirty Ernies for 3 years. My first taste of a sliced pork sandwich with that Bimini bread and barbeque sauce.....I was hooked. I now live 2 hours North of Lauderdale and often bring Ernies BBQ home and serve it to friends at gatherings and they now make trips to Lauderd...

THE BEST I'VE TASTED IN THE PAST 32 YEARS. YOU CAN ALWAYS COUNT ON A GREAT MEAL AT A GREAT PRICE.
I stumbled across this restaurant about a year ago. I have been eating there on a regular basis. The large portions of freshly prepared food is well worth the money. I enjoy the shrimp dumplings, the selection of congee soups, and the BBQ items are all delicious. The staff are very friendly and acco...

I first visited Ernies when on a British aircraft carrier in 1978. We found it by chance & it then became our "local" in Ft Lauderdale. Terrific staff, great clientlle in the upstairs bar! I took my wife there in 2004 & although the faces had changed, it was still a great place. I stil have an Ernie...

As many have said in there prior reviews. Ernie's is long time well known Fort Lauderdale watering hole and eatery. Friendly staff, generous portions and tasty barbeque. My only criticism is that I do not like their barbeque sauce which is thin and watery. Most barbeque restaurnts give you a chice ...

As stated in the other reviews, Dirty Ernie's (nee "Ernie's Restaurant & Rooftop Bar" for the tourists) is a long time Fort Lauderdale tradition. I remember back in the 80's & early 90's when that section of Federal Highway was a bit seedier & hookers used to walk the streets; Ernie's stopped offer...

the food taste like the home cooked meal you would expect from a soul food restaurant.
We will all miss Ray NG the owner of this great place. Taken from our lives. In 10 years I have been eating here I never had a bad experence.

Back in the 70's we called this place "Dirty Ernies", with words of wisdom and pictures painted on the walls, wooden picnic tables inside, and menu's hand written on paper plates ... Ernie passed away years ago but the food is still the same, spectacular! A real treat! Get a pork sandwich, fritters,...
