The Chimney House

After six years and rolls of red tape Frank and Yaddi Rodriguez opened The Chimney House, a casual Pan-Latin eatery on West Las Olas Boulevard in early September. The idea behind the restaurant was to open up a fair-priced homestyle neighborhood restaurant for the wester part of Fort Lauderdale. On most Latin dishes The Chimney House excels. A Lomo Saltado came with a perfect soy-vinegar sauce and tender pieces of sirloin. Like the menu, the kitchen hails from across South American with cooks from Peru and Uruguay. There are also some American items on the menu, such as “The Chimney House Burger” and a meatloaf, but we advise you to stick with the classics.
