I first went to Ernie's when I was 18. I got the conch chowder. That conch chowder has remained the best I have ever had since and I am now 56. I wish I lived down there to get it all the time or if they would sell it frozen and shipped. Wonderful stuff! Alva Irish

The ribs here are on my top 5 list as worst ribs ever! The meat has no flavor; the sauce taste like Open Pit grocery store sauce. Also ordered the conch fritters and what a disappointment. Luckily the corn on the cob and cole slaw was not too bad. I will not be returning to Ernie's 'Bar-b-que. :(

Ernies is a place from the old Lauderdale days of the 60s~80's. A day where students came to Ft Lauderdale for fun, and didn'y have to impress everyone. The barbeque, and Conch Chowder is excellent. Get the Half Pork or Beef Sandwich, and a bowl of Chowder for $8.95. Good servings, Great Taste, Great Price. Possibly the best Conch Chowder that I have ever had, at least top two. The place is nothing fancy, but a friendly atmosphere.
Pros: Conch Chowder, Pulled/Sliced Pork, Pulled/Sliced Beef
Cons: Its 1200 M. From Ohio

I grew up in Lauderdale and Ernie's was part of it. When the old man Ernie owned the place and for years afterward you could read Ernie's tirades he had painted on the wall. He hated the goverment and the whole money system. Anyway his food was great and the beer was cold, I always had a bowl of chowder w/Sherry, and a Bar-B-Q sandwich. Though I no longer live in Lauderdale I always stop at Ernie's. It's tradition! Last time I was there all of Ernie's stuff was painted over, that was a sin.
Pros: food, service, beer
Cons: parking, parking, parking

Best conch fritters anywhere including the keys. Go for the conch fritters, the conch salad, the cold beers and sit on the roof and enjoy the view of the Harley dealership across the street. It just don't get better than Earnie's.
Pros: Conch Fritters, Conch Salad, Funkiness

After having driven by Ernie's dozens of times, finally stepped in to see what all the furvor was about. After a seemingly bottomless bowl of smoked fish dip, incredibly tender and tasty ribs and chicken accompanied by the famous bimini bread and corn on the cob, I realized I should have ventured over sooner. The service was great and the food excellent. Large portions and the sauce was good.
Pros: Excellent service, Large portions, Good quality food

You call that Bimini Bread. I guess you've never been to Bimini. Also and by the way a little tomato sauce and a ton of onion does not make a BBQ sauce. And conch salad should taste like conch not tune but that may be what was used!!!!

A local hangout. Nothing Fancy ... The food ? one word ... Awesome !!! The best Burgers / Dolphin sandwich / Barbeque around by far ... Just ask the locals ... Dont miss the Bimini Bread ... I drive 20 miles for a loaf ! very fast service and the best food ... Treat your self to a simple , quick and awesome meal . By the way most of the patrons have been loyal Ernie's fans for decades ...
