For those of us with high expectations of low places, this raw bar has appeal. You can stumble up to the docks almost any time of day and sup on platters of gulf oysters and wash them down with ice-cold beer from the bottle or plunk down inside and escape the sun with an iced […]

There’s no way this is gonna end pretty, so let’s just define our terms, bloody our lips, and get on with it: French fries are not supposed to be brown, bumpy things with intact skins. They are not supposed to be big. Those are steak fries. A French fry should be thin, almost noodly, and […]
At Sugar Rush, the four-wheeled version of Miami’s Sweetness Bake Shop, you can have your cake and drink it too. The dessert-oriented food truck hocks tasty sweets in Miami-Dade and Broward counties. And one of its signature frozen treats is something called a cake ‘n’ shake. It’s essentially a vanilla or chocolate milk shake blended […]
Sunfish Grill was a luminary when it debuted nearly two decades ago in a former luncheonette in Fort Lauderdale. From the charming-though-dated dining room, you’d never know it. At its peak, the restaurant garnered New Times awards including Best Place for an Intimate Conversation and Best Contemporary Restaurant. That was under chef Tony Sindaco and […]

Formerly, Stage 84.
Located in the heart of Wilton Manors, this multilevel, medieval-themed megaclub is the place to hit for a long night of dancing, bass-thumping music, and leaving with a bit of body glitter on your skin. Dripping in crystals and filled with cherubs, swirling wallpaper, and pulsating LED lights, the Manor could pass for the Queen […]
Going well beyond French fries and chicken wings, this laid-back downtown Hollywood gastro pub serves up comfort food with a twist. A Reuben spring roll comes with corned beef twisted inside a wrapper and fried until crispy. Lobster corn dogs are filled with generous chunks of sweet lobster meat. The dishes may change, but the […]
A beachside hideaway for the local drinkers is found within Fort Lauderdale’s Treasure Trove. Nautical trimmings and beer knickknacks are scattered along the walls where locals sharing stories occupy the high top tables and barstools. The jukebox fills the room with rock ‘n’ roll favorites, and the ocean breeze blows through the open-air dive. The […]

Ever since 1949, long before I-95 connected South Florida and high-rises covered the coasts, Tropical Acres Steakhouse has sat on the outskirts of Fort Lauderdale, serving steaks, formality and a taste of the good life. More than six decades after opening, and after surviving two restaurant-gutting fires, the menu has grown but remains centered on […]
This longtime kitsch bar/restaurant caters to older GLBT gents who relax with solid cocktails poured by chatty barkeeps before dinner. A younger professional crowd drops in around happy hour. A faux tropical aviary and bamboo theme adorns the central room, with oversized art of tropical birds and plants as unifying artwork throughout the dining room. […]
Begun as a neighborhood dockside fish shack and open-air bar in 1957, Two Georges has expanded to an outdoor dining complex and sports bar along the waterfront northwest of the Boynton Beach Boulevard bridge. The all-outdoor (but covered) seating is at tables and hightops in the tiki and along the deck, with a group of […]
Thanksgiving is a time to share with family and friends who are near and dear, so leave the cooking to us this year! North Beach Village Resort’s Village Caf
This little shack on Andrews Avenue is perfect if you want good food but are easily startled by the fast service at Burger King. The drive-through, at first glance, looks like a breakthrough in Asian food purveyance but in actuality must be an elaborate ploy by oil companies to whittle away at your gas tank. […]

YOLO stands for You Only Live Once, which is probably the owners’ way of saying, “Spend money and have another cocktail.” Kidding aside, YOLO is run by a group of Broward County power peeps who know how to run a solid business — the same guys who brought you Tarpon Bend, Himmarshee Bar & Grill, […]
