Typical of South Florida sports-bar excess, Duffy’s piles it on in every way: Huge, heart-stopping piles of meat. Flat-screens covering every conceivable surface showing every competitive match from around the globe. Nubile waitresses clad in gimmicky outfits. In its previous incarnations (Red Zone, Original Steakhouse) not much was different. Ribs, chicken wings, quesadillas and the […]
The single person and the takeout-Chinese restaurateur have an interesting relationship. With the barber and the mechanic, there’s banter. With bartenders, there’s chat. But with the Chinese takeout guy, there’s not much to say. You order, “Szechuan chicken, hot-and-sour soup, and an egg roll. For one.” He gives you the price. You arrive ten minutes […]

Long before Chipotle and Moes began hawking burritos in South Florida, hometown favorite East Coast Burrito Factory was constructing gargantuan, one-pound burritos and unleashing them like mini-Godzillas on the public. The burritos say East Coast, but the style is distinctly San Franciscan with a Florida twist — Frisco burros are known for their bulging mass, […]
When you’re craving a pork schnitzel or strudel, where do you go? If you like authentic German and live in South Florida, the answer is probably Edelweiss Bakery off Commercial Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale.

Fungi, chilies, and squash blossoms; asadero, escargots, and wine reductions. Chef Eduardo de Pria incorporates them all at his award-winning gourmet restaurant, a celebration of native Mexican ingredients and European technique. Pria’s daily specials change often and might include tantalizing starters such as escargots sautéed with white wine and onions or Pria’s famous cilantro soup, […]
If you need a hit of that old-fashioned greasy-spoon goodness, investigate this ancient US 1 icon. You already know the type: the waitresses have worked here since God’s grandparents needed a babysitter; the chef probably invented the wife-beater; and the percolated coffee flows non-stop. A seriously 60s vibe pervades (the diner sits next to an […]
The word charamusca roughly translates in Salvadoran slang as “a mix of things,” which is just what you’ll get at the homey El Guanaco. The yellow building on Prospect Road caters to the large Salvadoran and Mexican population in that blue-collar stretch of Fort Lauderdale. But El Guanaco serves just as many customers from north […]
El Tamarindo’s menu is all over the map – a map of the American continents, anyway. The proprietors have come up with a brilliant strategy to attract every Latin-food-loving soul within 100 miles: They’ll dish up your meat and veg in the style of Cuba, Argentina, Uruguay, El Salvador, Honduras, or Mexico. Just pick your […]

The longest-lasting relic of Fort Liquordale’s awesome permanent spring-break, the Elbo Room has seen Category 4 hurricanes, wet T-shirts, and drinking contests come and go. The place is located directly across the street from the beach and carries its own salty swagger. Both young and old continue to congregate here and let the good times […]
A charming lunch spot tucked away in a former pastor’s home at Trinity Lutheran Church, the restaurant run by two sisters, Jonny Altobell and Penny Sanfilippo, has hidden in the annex for ten years. In a nod to childhood nicknames, the Ugly Sisters riff on their sense of humor that pervades the spirit of the […]
If you don’t get lost looking for Empire Stage for the first time, then congratulations: You’d be the first. But this playhouse’s locational obscurity is actually part of its charm; just as with Sol Theatre, the building’s previous occupant, Empire Stage remains the best-kept secret in the South Florida theater scene. Artistic director David Gordon […]

There’s a long history behind Ernie’s BBQ, with its eclectic mix of Libertarian philosophy on the walls and funky decor. It usually leads to stories about Ernie Siebert, a good ole’ Florida boy who just so happened to also be a part-time rumrunner. Popular lore estimates he once purchased $250,000 worth of booze and stored […]
