“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!!“

“Great service. Went for my birthday breakfast. No nonsense place just the way I like it. Food was great. Service was great and the clientele it's very nice. Just a great vibe of good people. Grateful for my birthday experience and I will be back.“

“This was a great place with awesome prices to eat. My portion was enormous. Two people could have eaten. The menu is enormous with a huge variety of options. It's like the Cheesecake Factory as for many pages of options.

Inside it is dark and my mom had a hard time reading the menu.

Large portions and everyone liked what they ordered. I didn't like the Ceasar salad but my actual dish was delicious.“

“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.“

“I stopped by this local diner for a quick breakfast before heading out on a trip, and it turned out to be the perfect way to start the day. The place had a cozy, welcoming atmosphere with friendly staff and that classic diner feel that makes you want to stay a little longer. Even though I was just passing through, I felt right at home from the moment I walked in.

I ordered the eggs Benedict, a stack of pancakes, and a cup of coffee. The eggs Benedict was excellent, with perfectly poached eggs, a toasted English muffin, and a rich, creamy hollandaise sauce that tied everything together. The pancakes were light, fluffy, and just sweet enough to complement the savory flavors of the Benedict without feeling too heavy. A hot cup of coffee rounded out the meal perfectly, making everything pair together surprisingly well and giving me the boost I needed before getting back on the road.

The staff was warm, attentive, and had my food out quickly without sacrificing quality, which I really appreciated since I was traveling. Overall, it was a wonderful breakfast with delicious food, great coffee, and excellent service. I'd definitely make another stop here the next time I'm passing through the area.“

“On June 16, we went to Kaluz Restaurant in Fort Lauderdale to celebrate my mother’s 85th birthday. We are regulars at Kaluz to the point where we have the cell phone numbers of several employees. In a nutshell, Anthony, the manager, should not hold that position in a restaurant like Kaluz. My husband and Anthony exchanged words and Anthony’s solution to the issue was telling us, “You should not come back here. The owners do not want parties larger than five people.” My jaw dropped. I could not believe that a manager’s solution to an issue about seating us sooner, while we waited for two other people in our party, especially since my 85-year-old mother could not stand for long, was to tell us, on two separate occasions, that we should not come back. Anthony also put the entire blame on the owners of the restaurant. We go to Kaluz almost on a weekly basis, tip extremely well and have taken countless people there that have also ended up being regulars at Kaluz. No restaurant manager should EVER tell a customer, regular or not, to not come back regardless of the issue. Needless to say, we will not be going back to Kaluz as long as Anthony continues working“

“We made lunch reservations and had a great experience. There was no wait time to be seated.
Our server Shanquan was exceptional. She gave a fun experience with laughter throughout the meal. She was very attentive from beginning with waters, then to going over the drink menu and daily specials. We ordered artichoke for our appetizer, and it was scrumptious. The main course we selected was the New York strip with Mac and cheese, which was exceptionally cooked to our liking and a great choice to share between two people. We finished off with their home made carrot cake which was served fresh and hot, which was a nice round out to the meal.
Come dine with Shanquan for a terrific experience at J Alexander!“

“Literally the very best burgers we’ve had in Florida! Cheffrey the food truck guy stopped by our table at least 2 times- what a personably guy- and I heard his music is pretty darn good too! The Mongolian Brussels sprouts were amazing! The seasoned fries and the truffle fries were outstanding! Can’t wait to go back soon (and bring our friends)!“

“Wish I lived closer!! Applause to the Pastry Chef!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼She is a gem! 💎🤩 My family and I visited on Saturday 4/19. Your place is so perfect in every way. And the poise and control of the dining room shows the teamwork it takes and yall run a well oiled, attentive, delicious, fresh and welcoming place!! Truly a GEM!! 😍 My Brother will be back Tuesday 4/22 for a bunch of your amazingly succulent CinnaGEMbuns! They are so fluffy, and gooey with an exceptional crusted bottom that gives it that extra sweetness, and then with the most incredible drizzles! 🤤The homemade touch to all of it was so phenomenal! Thank you for all the hard work and the hours of love and time on your feet to give us the most delicious fresh made English muffins with a lightness and crunch matched to none!! 😁 My family was grieving that morning having breakfast there as we were in town for a funeral and I cannot tell you how much your place lifted our spirits with the warm, homemade comfort foods..we are still talking about it today! ☺️ Big 👏🏼 to everyone that served us. I will definitely be back the next time we are in town. 💛“

“Food and drinks were great! We had the lobster ravioli,the calamari which was DUMB GOOD, spinach dip, several fruit bomb shots and I had a carribean mama...delish! I do wish they had the spinach and mushroom ravioli from before when it was called Lips. Entertainment was even better. The show was full of sass and spice! Everyone was nice and helpful. My friend and I had the best time. Her first time, my second after many years. Definitely will go back.“

“This is one of our favorite places that is consistently serving deliciously fresh food with super friendly service. The menu changes frequently so you have to go a few times if you have a favorite dish on the menu before they change it. The ambiance is amazing. We have frequented True Food Kitchen in other states but we just enjoy now coming to True Food in Boca.“

“Service and ambiance at Galuppi’s are outstanding. Deborah at the bar is incredibly kind, and Xixi is very informative and welcoming. Every visit has been a great experience, and I’ll definitely be back again and again as a repeat customer.

And just to clarify—that’s not the other Marcel… you know, the one who’s probably 5’2” with an attitude.“

“Another great experience! Food was great, value too. However the star of the entire experience was Alexandra our server. Her attention to detail, timely check-ins without being bothersome, and preparation throughout the entire experience was truly top notch. My wife and I have over 40 years in the restaurant business and Alexandra was a true throw back to the gold standard of service in a restaurant.“

“Yes! Great food and service!“

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

“The best German restaurant in the state. Bring back EDDY!“

“We had a birthday party for 11 people at Sixty Vines in Boca Raton on 4/21/25 and the food and service were both excellent. The manager, Austin was very friendly and accommodating. Sixty Vines is lucky to have him. Hannah was our waitress, and she was amazing. We had drinks, appetizers and each had a meal, and the total bill was very reasonable for all that we received. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a special occasion. I don't write reviews; however, we were all so surprised by how great our experience was I wanted to share.“

“Amazing burger, cooked perfectly. I asked for medium and it was perfect. Tater tots were crispy and not greasy. The waitress was pleasant. Cool artwork throughout.
Cons: I wasn’t a fan of the group seating, I wanna have a private table not sit next to strangers.“

“My first time here and I was impressed by the relaxing atmosphere. They have an intensive selection of alcohol and beer. If you are looking for an amazing old fashioned, I would suggest this place because they have a very large bourbon collection. The bartender was extremely friendly and very attentive. I would definitely recommend this place.“

“Flavia is awesome! She’s great and the food was delicious“

“great, kind service.....clean....and as usual, a great tuna melt.“
