We're so sad Rebel House is closing but we are very excited to see what's coming next! The food was top notch, service impeccable, and ambiance is something south Florida needs more of!
A last hurrah for a favorite haunt! Rebel house has always provided excellent food and a fun multi-cultural menus. I'm sad to see them go, but looking forward to the next adventure

Sad they're closing! We've come to rebel house so many times over the years and have shared many milestone memories! End of an era, it's a shame the new owners are closing to move their other restaurant into this location. Pretty sure today is the last day they're open (3/27/23) go if you can!

Super fun happy hour on a Monday night. Not too crowded (unlike the weekends!) and service was fast. Had the meat and cheese board and the fried rice - delicious! Old fashioned was made very well.

Been to rebel house several times. Generally the food is good and the wait staff is excellent. However the management has had a couple of misses recently so I am not sure we will return. Its too bad because this was our goto spot when we moved here. Only having happy hour at the bar now is another miss. We used to have happy hour on the patio with our family and dog but they won't accommodate, even if the restaurant is empty. I'd still go there on my own because they make great drinks but won't be returning with the family or when guests come to town.

Facts: Require a $15 dollar per person credit card deposit for a brunch reservation. One of two key fixtures in the Men's restroom not working and covered with a trash bag. The Women's restroom was described as “disgusting”, dirty and not useable. The food: The Vietnamese sandwich consisted of stale, hard bread oversized compared to the small amount of burnt protein and toppings provided. The fries were the only redeeming part of the dish. The French was unremarkable with an overly sweet filling. Will not return
Made a reservation and had to use credit card. Arrived at restaurant and were given a table outside next to the street. Politely asked for another another table. One opened nearby and asked if we could switch. Another hostess said it was for reservations and seated the next patron. They were beyond incompetent. The manager Kristin was rude and indignant. Found us another less desirable seat at the front door. We have not been treated this rudely and poorly in many years at a restaurant anywhere. On top of it all, the restaurant was filthy. Kristin made no accommodation and basically told us if we don't île the seat we could leave, which we did.

A little brunch action with some Great Local vibes. They have a live DJ that will literally knock it out of the park. The pork cheek empanada’s were by far my favorite but the deviled eggs were not far behind. Drinks were on point and the atmosphere is great. The DJ picked all the right songs. Definitely stick with the drinks and apps. I might have to come back and see how the dinner is.
First impression upon arriving at the restaurant was that the place is dirty. We had an 11am brunch so the place had just opened which implies that the food leftovers all over the booth seat and the stickiness on the table top were from the previous evening. The mini creamer pitcher they brought with the coffee had something leftover stuck inside. Just gross. The next disappointment came in the form of being told that half the items we wanted were not available because the kitchen has not had time to prep them. As for the food.... Beware! What is describe in the menu is not what you will receive. For example the “disco” latkes are described on the menu as being served topped with a truffle cream sauce what arrived was extremely salty latkes topped with slices of American cheese. The rest of the items we ordered were just ok. I would not recommend this place.

I love the Rebel House! The food is wonderful. The atmosphere is fun. I recommend you only go there with people who are somewhat adventurous as far as food goes. It's the perfect place to share multiple small plates and even large plates since the food is very creative. Don't bring your meat and potatoes friends here, lol
Guy Fieri from Diners Drive-Ins and Dives recommended this restaurant on his show, so we decided we’d check it out for dinner. The service was terrible; so was the waitress. Every question we asked her, she had to go find the answer. More than half of the “large plates” weren’t available. We couldn’t even get a burger. There are Publix supermarkets on every corner. The restaurant couldn’t go buy ground beef??? Prices were high too. We’ll never go back. I reached out to the restaurant; they never hot back to me.
Was seated in a half empty restaurant and no server came by. After 10+ minutes of just sitting, no greeting, no drinks nothing...we got up and left. Too many great restaurants in this area to waste here!
Our visit to The Rebel House for happy hour was a pleasant, but fairly disappointing experience. We arrived at approximately 5:30 PM on a Tuesday evening for happy hour and were seated at a table for two outside. The restaurant was fairly empty, with only three other tables seated and one individual seated at their bar. The waitstaff was friendly, but we were soon informed by our waitress that we could not order any happy hour drinks/food because that is reserved only for seating at the bar. She kindly said, “Let me see if we can make an exception,” and after checking in with her manager, she informed us, “Sorry, happy hour is for bar seating only.” How strange to advertise happy hour but not allow patrons to sit where they please. We ultimately moved to the bar and ordered one drink each, before going to Luff's down the road for food. We had originally planned to eat at The Rebel House, but were disappointed by the strange rules and decided to dine elsewhere.

Carson was a very knowledgeable and friendly waiter that gave us great suggestions. Two people can share three small plates for a nice mix of offerings at a decent price. The food menu is perfect and the drink menu is extremely unique and original. The bartender has a nice pour. The kitchen really knows what they’re doing and I’ll definitely be going back just for the food. The chef’s donuts were AMAZING. The atmosphere is great too. I really think a lot of the negative reviewers are impossible to please and will never find joy in life. Restaurants like this are hard to find!

We ate dinner at the Rebel House after attending a show at Mizner Park. Had a reservation for 4 pp, 9:00 pm on a Friday night. Arrived on time and we were ushered to a long table, under a bright light that could accommodate 10 pp. We asked to be moved to a smaller round table under an umbrella, that offered less light and some “ambiance.” Waited a very long time for our waiter to come over and take drink and food orders. He was doing his best, and the food was good, when it finally arrived, but we will not return. Yes, it was a Friday night, during “Season,” after the restaurant was featured on “Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives,” but I have to say us Boca/ Delray locals were very disappointed with our first time experience.
