Hi, Sheila, I was wondering if you know of any great restaurants in the Fort Lauderdale area that can easily be booked for a dinner in a few weeks?
Sure, do you have any particular type of cuisine in mind?
Well, my sister will be in town with her two kids and they're both recent college graduates. I would like a place near the beach that serves American style food.
How about Aruba's? They have American style food and great online reciews.
Ok, sounds good. Do they have a bar in the restaurant?
Yes, they have a fully stocked bar with premium and house liquors and wine selections.
Awesome, and how close are they to the beach?
They are located on the East side of A1A and are located directly on the beach.
Do they have live music? I would love for my sister and her kids to see some local talent. 
Yes, they have live bands (usually rock or acoustic guitar) on the weekends and on some week nights.
Ok, can you book a table for 4, for Friday, March 1st at 7:00 PM, at a table outside?
I am sorry to inform you that all of the outside tables are booked for that time. There is a table open at 8:00 and the hostess said they can accommodate you earlier at the bar.
That's fine, we can always take a walk on the beach beforehand as well. 
OK, so you still want to book the outside table for 4, Friday March 1st, at 8PM?
Yes, that works for me. Do you know if there are any other local attractions nearby?
Lauderdale By the Sea is known for its quaint shops, cafes, icecream stores, and of course, the beach. There is also a pier that you can walk out on, to view the ocean.
Wow, this will be a great evening and I'm sure my sister and kids will have a great time. 
I am sure they will. Is there anything else I can assist you with?
No, that is all. Thank you for your time and help with all of this. 
No problem, be sure to check your email and cell phone for confirmation of reservation. 
Ok, will do. Thanks and talk to you soon.
Ok, then. Good bye.
