Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    This is a beautiful, walkable area along a canal-type waterway, they call a river. Boats, etc float in it. There are many large buildings/mixed-use along it, as well and lots of shops and restaurants. It lights up beautifully at night and is all walkable. While this area might have a lot of homeless and not be very appealing, the nights we were out on this walk, it was nice and we didn’t see much vagrancy. It can be touristy, but it’s worth visiting.

    The historical society is comprised of a few buildings, although only one is open to the public. It contains a film about the history of the area as well as a few comprehensive exhibits. The staff I encountered were extremely friendly. Recommended for history buffs such as myself.

    We took the walk on a Friday about mid day in August. There are lots of yachts to see parked along the water's edge, with several drawbridges. There are few restaurants along the route with several a short distance away. There are free water taxis that can pick you up at select spots and bring you to other locations. The total distance end-to-end is less than a mile. A nice way to spend a couple hours, and do take the taxi for nice ride on the water.

    We love, Coral Ridge presbyterian church, and Pastor Rob. We buried our son yesterday, and Coral Ridge went out of their way to make everything as painless as possible. And they helped us greatly in this very difficult time.

    We were thereat the church in Jan 2020. Walked to the hotel from our hotel--a little further than I figured. Did have a nice view at the top of the bridge.

    Enjoyed the mass, liked short film about the bishop funds recipients and felt welcomed by the parishioners. At the end of the mass, visitors were told to wait if they needed a ride back to their hotel.

    NFL Frank gave us a ride back. We asked for a recommendation for dinner that night. He told us a few which were near our hotel and then drove us to one that we decided to try--Bistro Mezzaluna It was delicious Thanks, Frank!

    So if you're in the area stop at this great church

    Great location off The Riverfront. It is uniquely laid out with an open air format with coverage over the multiple bars. There are bar tables, couches, bar seats, and larger eating tables by the food truck area. Drinks are costly , so are the food items from the food trucks. They were playing some 80s music when we were there - not sure if it’s different at different times and different days. The atmosphere it creates is great.

    I visited this cemetery for one reason and one reason only, the legendary comedic actor Mr. Leslie Nielsen. The famous Canadian lived to be 84 years old. I remember him for his two most popular movies, 1980's Airplane! and 1988's The Naked Gun: From the Files of Police Squad! "I am serious, and don't call me Shirley."

    This Christmas pageant has been performed at this church for 35 years, so I am shocked that no one else has reviewed it before me!.

    Tickets were $45 each, and they were well worth the price. The first half of the show had a lot of secular music, plus some Christian Christmas songs. The highlight of the first half was the 12 days of Christmas/Africa by Toto mix which was superb. The sound, singing, dancing and overall performances were very professional; you would’ve thought you were at a Broadway musical! There were also some cute performances by young children. I was not so keen on the butchers job done on my favorite carol, O Holy Night!

    The second half of the show told the story of Jesus’ life, and included a live nativity. It was very well done, and it was great to see the camels as well. The altar call at the end of the show was a bit strange for me, the pastor was shouting over the top of quite loud music and the audience was asked to stand for quite some time, in the end I told my 86-year-old mother to just sit down. I felt it was not very well done. However I was glad to see some people responded to the call.

    Parking was a little bit confusing as we tried to find disabled parking and could not, even though it is available, and ended up in the parking garage. We had to pay five dollars to park. Inside the church everything was extremely well organized especially access to the restrooms.

    A very nice afternoon!

    We attended the third match of the 2016 America's Cup Rugby Tournament here. Seating was a bit worn but the arena was clean and well staffed. I understand the stadium was just reopened for pro-soccer and we wish them the best.

    As I travel I like to visit temples from different religions and learn and share with them the differences and deep held beliefs we all have in our hearts. Although I am not of the Jewish Faith I was warmly welcome and I spent some time talking with some of the members. I learned about the Holocaust Memorial they dedicated here in 2004 and that it has one of only five surviving scrolls from the Jewish community in Kojetin, Czecholovakia. The Synagogue in Kojetin was transformed after WWII into a Moravian Church and the Pastor of that church preserved the Jewish character of the building and saved the Torah from destruction where later it found it's way to this congregation, and so is housed today in a Synagogue that began its life as the Moravian Church of Coral Ridge. My daughter in law is Moravian and I'm always fascinated by historical facts concerning religion. I am very happy I visited this place.

    Is it the most up-to-date theater space? No. Is it the most attractive venue? No. Will you see the latest headliners there? No. However, you will still see a great show or can have a good conference or can hold a nice event there. It's clean, convenient and well cared for. It's scheduled for an update that will be welcome. And while the neighborhood may be questionable at times, during events there is always security.

    Lockhart Stadium has a good location and is still comfortable and has events. We no longer go as often as we used to because so many events like baseball, soccer have changed venues.
