Duffy’s Sports Grill

There is never enough team spirit at Duffy’s Sports Grill. Football helmets line the aisles, and the giant bar area boasts 13 huge projector screens that play every game and sport imaginable. If that’s not sports overload, young women in jerseys offer enthusiastic “how are yas?” at every corner while they walk past restaurant-area walls […]

Duffy’s Sports Grill

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 Dutch Pot Jamaican Restaurant

Popular Jamaican haunt the Dutch Pot sets itself above the other Caribbean restaurants with stellar service, a loyal following, and food packed with as much flavor as your taste buds can handle. The staff prepares its own jerk seasoning, brown stew, and homemade curry daily. Lovers of seafood should show up for breakfast – the […]

The Dutch Pot

You’d be hard-pressed to find a Jamaican joint more authentic than Dutch Pot, a homey lunch counter and dining room in the heart of North Lauderdale. Make no mistake, this is straight-up soul food: fall-off-the-bone jerk chicken is whacked into bone-in chunks and plated with thyme-scented rice and peas; curry chicken and goat lavish in […]

East China Kitchen

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 […]

East City Grill

Despite its name, East City Grill is nowhere close to the east side; it’s located in Weston, emphasis on the west. This contemporary-designed establishment prepares American and international fare with a focus on Florida produce and fish when possible. And if local fish isn’t available within reach, East City Grill has seafood flown in daily. […]

East Emerald

The menu boasts that this elegant Hollywood strip-mall eatery serves “the finest and latest in Chinese cuisine.” The latest can be found in only one dish, really – a moist fillet of salmon topped with ground pork, chopped peppers and green onions, and black-bean sauce presented on a bed of spaghetti. But the finest is […]

Ed & Elaine’s Tiki Hut

And you thought you were in-the-know when you discovered Le Tub! Ha! This place is so low-rent that it doesn’t even have walls. There’s no door, no sign, no cash register

Eddie Hills and Sushi Thai

Putting the “dine” in diner, the Thai and Japanese dishes at this roadside joint are superb. Mee krob isn’t too sweet; pad Thai isn’t too fishy; curries are beautifully balanced. For Japanese fare, order any one of the numerous fresh-fish rolls or the katsu – pounded chicken or pork that’s deep-fried and served with plum […]

Edelweiss Bakery

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. Equal parts bakery and deli, here you can find everything from pastries, cakes, and cookies to fresh-sliced smoked turkey, jagdwurst, and […]

Egg N You Diner

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 […]

El Camino

Delray Beach wasn’t complete until it received its new taqueria-ish El Camino. Here, owners Brandon Belluscio, Brian Albe, and Anthony Pizzo — also of Cut 432 and Park Tavern — deliver Mexican soul food and a topnotch tequila bar just a few steps from the city’s Atlantic Avenue restaurant row, at the entrance to Pineapple […]
