Joe’s Riverside Grille

Joe’s has the feel of a family operation – from a menu filled with chef Joe’s personalized touches (wine pairing recommendations, “Mom’s key lime pie”) to the cheerful, attentive service in the front of the house. The mom-and-pop atmosphere is considerably offset by the chic beauty of the space: an indoor room gleaming with polished […]

Le Bistro

This intimate bistro has been serving modern French dishes & fine wines since 2001. The menu features the highly sought after Beef Wellington, as well as mushroom soup, grass fed rack of lamb, Long Island duck and more. End your meal with a homemade dessert: the creme brûlée and the apple tart are two favorites.

Madras Cafe

Despite a sizable Broward population of immigrants from the subcontinent where vegetarian cooking is a high art, there’s a dearth of Indian restaurants here willing to venture into the uncommon cuisine of southern India. But Madras continues to buck the trends, serving idli, sambar, and those delectable little savory doughnuts called dhai vada, plus lesser-known […]

Mickey’s Bar

Mickey’s resides in a dark room in a strip mall in Pompano and boasts American eagles flanked by the flag. It’s the kind of bar that looks dicey and ends up a favorite divey haunt. Run by the Carter family, the bar recently celebrated its 50th birthday: not surprising, considering the band of loyalists that […]

Muvico Broward 18

This 18-screen mega theater offers digital sound, 3-D movies, and even D-BOX MFX seating in one of the theaters – in other words the seats move to give the audience the sensation of pitching and rolling with the action on screen. All theaters are stadium seating and an extensive concession stand is available.

Panorama Restaurant

This Brazilian restaurant isn’t big on being big. There is no ostentatious decor, no room-length salad bar, no rodizio wherein men carve large pieces of meat at your table. Panorama concentrates instead on cooking genuine Brazilian specialties that you just cannot find elsewhere, flavorfully prepared and simply presented at an affordable price. Try a picaha […]

Papa’s Fresh Market

This restaurant and fish market looks every bit of its 1976 vintage, though that’s not a bad thing. Being inside the winding corridors decked floor to ceiling in dark wood feels like dining in the galley of an old fishing boat. A display case by the front door highlights the day’s catch: To the right, […]

Papa’s Raw Bar

Floribbean, best described as a fusion of island-inspired fare mixed with locally grown tropical fruits and fresh-caught fish. And at Papa’s Raw Bar in Lighthouse Point, it’s what’s on the clipboard menu. Owners Joy and Hugh Ganter, and their son Troy, built the neighborhood eatery in a newly vacated space next door to Seafood World, […]

Pizza Mia

For more than two decades, Pizza Mia, though it’s changed hands a couple of times, has been serving the same menu in its cramped, narrow space in Lighthouse Point – a walk-in closet lined with tables and bad murals – to the sound of slamming oven doors, the grumbling of the dour pizza guy (“I’ve […]
