Not far from our picturesque venue space is one of the most famous Fort Lauderdale attractions: Las Olas Boulevard. What was once a simple dirt road connecting undeveloped swampland to the beach has grown into a lively destination of dining, shopping, nightlife, and more.

Las Olas - which means “The Waves” in Spanish - runs from the beachside Elbo Room bar to the NSU Art Museum of Fort Lauderdale. The commercial area of the boulevard was first built in the mid-20th century, undergoing major renovations in the 1970s and 80s. Today, Las Olas features over 120 retail stores, making it the hub of shopping in Fort Lauderdale. Visitors can also choose from world-class restaurants with outdoor seating and galleries filled with outstanding pieces of art.

Follow the thoroughfare to the Atlantic Ocean and discover Fort Lauderdale’s most well-known beach attractions. Las Olas Beach is a hotspot for visitors and offers a scenic view of the shoreline. From here, you’ll find more options for waterfront dining, boutique stores, and seaside recreation along A1A.

The Intracoastal is a natural geological feature. However, ever since the 1700s, different bodies of water throughout the waterway have been developed and improved to allow for easier transportation and travel. The Intracoastal Waterway can be organized into two sections: one runs along the Atlantic Coast, while the other runs along the Gulf of Mexico. The Atlantic Intracoastal, where our space is, flows from Boston to Key West.

The Intracoastal has long been used for commerce and the manufacturing of goods. It also offers a useful way to travel south by boat while avoiding the Atlantic Ocean’s rough seas. Today, some of South Florida’s most breathtaking waterfront houses and estates are located along the Intracoastal, which is now home to very valuable real estate.

Rather than firing up the grill and figuring out the grocery trips, allow Grateful Palate Catering & Events to handle the logistics while you focus on celebrating and spending quality time together. Whatever cookout cuisine you’re craving, the team has you covered. Simply tell them what you’d like and they’ll put your catered menu together. Whether it’s burgers, beer brats, or corn on the cob, the caterers can cover all your grilling needs. Just sit back and enjoy the night.

With social distancing in place, we’ve had to make some major adjustments. At the moment, it’s obviously not recommended to hold any sort of large-scale event with an extensive list of guests.
