“Bartenders are great! Friendly customers Many TV’s“

“We were three couples having dinner after an afternoon at the movies. We were given a round table, which was very comfortable and easy for us to talk and hear each other. It was also 7:30 pm when we arrived, which is a late time for most patrons in this area surrounded by adult communities. Jake was our waiter who was excellent. We had a few menus to choose from with specials, and I had the Power-bowl with chicken. It was packed with vegetables, sweet potatoes and quinoa. It was a generous portion. I was able to have another meal from the leftovers. Our friends had other salads and appetizers like edamame, and a spinach cheese dip with chips. Paul had the Mongolian beef with broccoli but he thought it was tough and the brown sauce was too salty. The best items to get here would be more classic American fare - the Asian salad, hamburgers etc. It’s a local venue in an upper class plaza which has indoor and outdoor dining options.“

“I had a GREAT 6/05/2023 Sunday brunch, the Veggie Omelet. Kelly was my waitress and took good card of me. I asked her if she had sisters working at LD and she said no. In my opinion, Kelly, Hannah and Brook (LD waitresses), look alike.“

“Last night was our first time visiting Dada and it exceeded all of our expectations. The service was fantastic and the food was exceptional. We ordered the cowboy ribeye along with the crème brûlée and the banana bread. All of the food was prepared to perfection. We will absolutely be dining there again. Highly recommended.“

“Healthy meets tasty!!! I'll be back again.“

“This was my first time going to Mission BBQ. The pork and chicken was tender. Both were full of flavor. Lots of different barbeque sauces. The corn bread was moist and flavorful as well. The service was great. The staff was really friendly and helpful. The restaurant was super clean. I loved looking at the walls of all the pictures of military and local police and firefighters. Great place! I've found my new go to place for barbecue.“

“Went to the coconut creek location this morning we were a bit grumpy however Anthony S was our server and he changed our moods with excellent service and such a great outgoing personality! It’s a rarity these days of good service and food and such a happy disposition! Thank you so much And what a wonderful experience“

“This place has the best Oyster Rockefellers ever. The lamb chops where pleasing as well. My hubby enjoyed the fried chicken and the mac n cheese, he stated the collards were okay, a little bit to salty. Other than that, our server was the greatest and the atmosphere was all that.“

“I had excellent service with a smile from Haileigh today! She took great care serving my food and was upbeat and friendly! I will definitely be back for another great experience at Duffys Deerfield“

“We took my father here for his 80th birthday brunch last Sunday (he loves a good whiskey drink). We sat on the patio. Gary our server was fantastic! And the manager/owner even made it a point to stop by our table and wish my father a happy birthday. We really appreciate how special you guys made him feel! Thank you so much. 💗“

“Great Food!! Cookies are awrsome“

“Nice restaurant on the intracoastal. Lots of choices for dinner and drinks. I had the maple mustard salmon dish. It was cooked perfectly and tasted delicious. My husband had a Caesar Salad with blackened shrimp. The salad was huge, the lettuce was crisp and fresh and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. Our server, Jensen, was sweet and took good care of us.“

“Great place to get a cheap drink“

“By far, my favorite spot in Delray Beach 🏝️ The staff are wonderful and the ambience is second to none. I highly recommend!“

“I love this place, I just wish they didn't run out of certain items so often.. other than that the food is great, the service is awesome. The bar gets pretty busy but the bartenders do a good job at making sure everyone is taken care of quickly.“

“Went there last week . loved it. Great atmosphere. Food was delicious. Drinks were ice cold and tasty. Our waitress was kind, friendly and helpful. Definitely will be going back. Joey V. and Ronni-Sue.“

“Perfect for take-out! I ordered the NY Strip with steak fries, sautéed mushrooms and onion, and a Caesar salad. My SO ordered the parmesean chicken with the loaded mashed potatoes and broccoli and everything was PHENOMENAL. The food was hot, fresh, correct, and prepared with care. I even paid less than I would have for the same exact thing at Outback!! Support this local business!!“

“Not a thing I didn't love about this local business. Chill vibes, food made all from scratch that will remind ya of home (especially if your from the DMV area), and awesome selection of beers. Service very personable and on point. Go try it out!“

“Awesome service! Great atmosphere! Amazing Food!“

“Very great place to dine. The music was great by both DJ's and the food didn't disappoint. If you're a whiskey drinker this is the place to go!“

“The food here is fantastic! So is the service generally. Just a shame about the host / manager who was either having a bad day or has serious attitude.
The wine selection is on the higher side, which is a bit annoying, but overall we had a good experience.“

“great food!! Welcome to the neighborhood!“

“we enjoy the specials each day and the breakfasts we get often. Had the fried pork chops Saturday evening and they were very good.“

“Avalon is a must! Beautiful atmosphere and the bar manager was awesome! 🥂🥂“

“A really good find this morning for breakfast Good food good prices and very friendly“

“Our first visit to Drift Restaurant was a delightful experience. They serve the best Drift burgers, and the drinks and desserts were equally delicious. Our waiter, Kory, was exceptional. He was accommodating, patient, and very friendly. We had an excellent time!“

“Always a delight! Patti is fantastic! She’s been at the restaurant since it opened and is always so friendly and welcoming! As other reviewers mentioned, the popovers and strawberry butter they bring to the table are very, very yummy!! And the chicken broth is perfect, comforting even on a hot Florida day. Most pleasant place to have lunch in the mall.“

“This was my first visit to Keke’s and I was pleasantly impressed. Our server, Estelle, immediately stood out — kind, helpful, and efficient. She helped me adjust a combo to get exactly what I wanted, and it worked perfectly. She also brought the check right after checking in, which I appreciated since I needed a quick in-and-out meal.

The food came out in under 10 minutes and didn’t feel like a wait at all. Everything was very good — especially the omelette and home fries. Even the coffee was great.

I’ll definitely be back now that I know the service and food are this good.“

“The lamb was amazing but the real winner for me was the key lime cheesecake. Top notch.“

“It's a fun upbeat mix that didn't distract from our business meeting. The food was delicious and served hot. Phoenix was our server and she did a great job being professional and attentive yet not pushy. Try the chicken wings, I know you can get them everywhere but these were especially good! The salad bowls are especially good too. Poke bowl especially! You can't beat the extensive cocktail list (and any of their cocktails can be made mocktail!) I will definitely be going back when it's not a business meeting! Great job American social!“

“What a great find! Julie was so friendly and helpful. I had the duck which had been recommended by friends. Absolutely amazing! It's a very small restaurant, so definitely make reservations. Just fabulous!“

“My wife and I came here for dinner—it was our first time, and we were excited based on what we saw online. The restaurant wasn’t full, which was surprising for a Friday night in Delray, but it’s truly a hidden gem that everyone should know about. The Old Fashioneds were on point, and my wife raved about the lychee martini. I highly recommend the lobster fries—thank me later! Overall, the food and experience were great. We’ll definitely be coming back.“

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Good food, good drinks and sports, and the best crew! Amy is the definition of pure graciousness and bartending acumen! Sarah, Dana, and Amy behind the bar is a big plus too They are one of the reasons I come to Duffy's. 😎🎸“

“Very noisy and crowded but the best Cuban food. Best to get there at 5:30. Outside is too close to the street, noisy there too.“

“Nice sports bar for food and drinks. 👍🏻“

“Would definitely come back here!! Cheyenne was amazing and would love to be served by her again!“

“Delicious food great service price and the owners make you feel like family. I hope everyone supports small family owned businesses. Julie is a wonderful person.“

“Amazing service + amazing pulled pork! John the manager is great, very accommodating.“

“Delicious Philly, the best in Deerfield, Chevron Gas Station at Military Trail. Excellent service and price.“

“Terrific hidden gem upstairs restaurant at Nordstrom’s Town Center Mall Boca. 😃Delicious sandwiches incredible best burger so fresh and tasty very quality and value, plenty of food and the soups were unreal.

“excelente servicio muy rico todo recomendado al cien“

“Delicious food, prompt and friendly service, great location, no wait to be seated on a Sun. morning!“

“Food is great. Drinks are awesome. What is missing is hospitality in service quality. No eye contacts from the server at all. They won't make any gesture to care for your table. A little careless environment as far as serving goes. Everything else is superb but you would love to be served when you dine in especially repeatedly. They don't dare to care.“

“We found this spot while waiting for doors to open. They close at 6 as it’s part of a golf course (no membership needed to dine). Full bar, pizza and sandwiches and salads. Service was very quick. It was pretty empty as we got here at 5:15 but they were happy to serve us. The pizza was awesome and my wife enjoyed the Caesar salad. She’s a singer so dinner tends to be lighter pre show. I stole most of the fries!“
