“I stopped in today around brunch time! I got a steak & egg sandwich and large iced latte with caramel and vanilla. My boyfriend got a bacon & cheese croissant! Which were both amazing. The server Dolly was super helpful and sweet. I would definitely recommend to others! 🤍“

“Our friends brought us here for brunch, mainly for the pour over coffee, I think, but it was vegan friendly. Both hubby & I had the vegan pillow and our friends had the breakfast pillow. The food was tasty, but I think the big draw, again, was the coffee. I'd come back, but probably not before trying other vegan/vegan-friendly restaurants around.“

“I had such a great experience at The Soulful Steep. I won a free session in the salt room and it was incredibly relaxing, the perfect way to unwind. The 45-minute session was amazing, and I’ll definitely be back. Afterwards, I treated myself to a Happy Go Lucky watermelon drink and a slice of crumb cake. The drink was so refreshing, and the crumb cake was honestly the best I’ve ever had. The staff goes above and beyond and makes you feel right at home.“

“lugar donde puedes pasar un tiempo agradable... te tomas unas cerveza y la puedes disfrutar junto con una hamburguesa yo Les recomiendo la Black amb Blue“

““I had an excellent dining experience. The pasta was cooked perfectly, with a rich and flavorful sauce that tasted fresh and authentic. The garlic bread was warm and delicious, and the portions were generous. The atmosphere was welcoming, and the staff provided friendly, attentive service. The tiramisu was the perfect ending to the meal—light, creamy, and full of flavor. I would definitely recommend this restaurant to anyone looking for quality Italian food.”“

“Love LOVE alive love The food is amazing“

“We landed early afternoon & headed straight to Café Bastille-Fort Lauderdale in Fort Lauderdale for brunch. I'd heard rave reviews about this spot & it exceeded expectations. We kicked off with a passionfruit margarita & a bacon bloody mary, both bursting with flavor. For our meal, we opted to share the truffle croque madame with a side salad & breakfast potatoes. The toast was wonderfully light & fluffy, & the potatoes had the perfect crunch. We couldn't leave without getting a NY pistachio croissant. The entire experience was enchanting. I'm already looking forward to our next visit before leaving Florida.“

“Beautiful work with my wedding cake It was perfect and absolutely delicious Highly recommend“

“The customer service here is incredible! I’ve never ever been to a restaurant where the chef and all the waitresses remember you by name and even remember your order!! Besides that amazingness, the food is spectacular! This is a hidden gem!“

“Awesome place with great staff if you are around the area.“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A true hidden gem! 💎✨
If you're looking for a place with great sandwiches, Gili's Sub Shop Cafe is the spot! From the moment you walk in, you feel so welcomed; the atmosphere is incredibly peaceful, cozy, and family-friendly. But what really makes you want to come back is the service—they were so kind to us!
As for the food, we ordered the pastrami sandwich, which was made fresh to order, and we loved it. It was absolutely delicious! But here is the real secret for flavor lovers: you have to try their ají (hot sauce). It is a total delight. What I liked most is that it has a super rich, balanced flavor; it has just the right amount of kick, allowing you to enjoy all the flavors together with the sandwich without overpowering your palate.
A great experience overall! Highly recommended, and we will definitely be back. 🥪❤️“

“Love the wraps at Juice Therapy!“

“Got a mango peach pineapple and I was impressed with the how good it tasted. Will be back soon“

“Love this place! We have been almost a dozen times and it is always delicious. I love that everything Is gluten free and you would never know because of how delicious everything is. The service is amazing. The location is so clean. You can get a free hour of parking in the lot. The hours are the best! I’ll continue to come back.“

“There is nothing on their menu that isn't fresh. So very good! The staff is very attentive and friendly! This is a hidden gem in Margate!“

“This little neighborhood restaurant has been open for a few months, but it already feels like a neighborhood staple. The moment I walked in, the southern comfort warmth was immediate. Delf Juice Bar & Cafe is a family operation, and you feel it in every detail. Janet, the owner, was at the counter and she was a delight. She was juggling a couple of customers while effortlessly making suggestions and answering questions in English and Spanish. Before I even ordered, she handed me a sample of freshly squeezed juice with ginger — one of those sips that genuinely makes you feel alive.
I ordered the sandwich Cubano aka Cuban panini, and when it arrived, I was stopped in my tracks. The presentation was stunning — the perfectly placed platanitos standing upright, elegant and playful all at once. The food, the atmosphere, and the hospitality is what made my visit memorable. Finding a place where the owners genuinely show care about your experience is rare, and this family takes pride in it! I'll be back and bringing everyone I know.“

“What an amazing coffee shop!! Enjoying being a regular here this week! Coffee and atmosphere is awesome!!“

“Amazing bowls and smoothies! Totally recommend if you want something fresh and tasty“

“servers are very attentive no matter how busy the restaurant gets and food are made perfect so far in my 6 visits. I love to bring friends there considering it is convenient to my location.“

“Best bubble tea ever! The owner recommended an iced peach black tea espresso (hope I got that right) — a surprisingly amazing combo. I’ll definitely be back for more. The taro bubble tea and mango smoothie were also spot on, with none of that powdery or syrupy taste I can’t stand. My daughter loved the macaron and devoured the rainbow marshmallow treat we got for later. We will be back very soon!“

“Great service with good food“

“MUST VISIT!!!! Our flight was delayed so we hung out here for a few hours and let me tell you it’s phenomenal! Sylvia is a sweetheart and the best way to describe the food and atmosphere is healing. It felt like I was eating my grandmothers soup and the Cuban was authentically perfect. As a chef myself they I rate many gold stars for this place. This may have been the best part of the trip !“

“As a very health conscious person, healthy smoothies are a main source of my daily intake. Living downtown on Las Olas I have Pura Vita downstairs and smoothie places all around me. Those smoothies are not PURE nor CLEAN like Revive. I was blown away by the flavor given how clean and healthy they are. The owner was amazing. I will make this drive regularly to know I'm putting the best ingredients in my body! They are opening a second location in DelRay and I am so excited about that! A 10 out of 10!“

“Everything!!! Beth Anne…..with a “e” made our experience amazing! We were visiting from out of town and she was the best. We brought my 82 year old mom back the next day! The food, staff and adorable decor was to remember! Thank you for making a special memory for me, my daughter and mom. Three generation of love!“

“Me encantó el muy buen servicio y la comida. Mi Ahi Tuna plate estaba espectacular sobre todo el cauliflower rice… Awesome!!!“

“Stopped by Sol Cafe recently and it’s such a hidden gem! This locally owned spot just opened not long ago, and the owners are super sweet and welcoming — you can tell they really care about the place and their customers.

We ordered the Coca Amor crepes (strawberry, banana, chocolate, pistachio cream) and the Crepe Tatin (dulce de leche, caramelized apples, and crème anglaise), and both were amazing. Everything tasted fresh and made to order — even the crepe batter is prepared fresh for each order, which makes the wait totally worth it. The crepes were perfectly thin, soft, and really flavorful, and the caramelized apples with dulce de leche were especially good.

For drinks, we tried the honey matcha, which was smooth and not overly sweet, and the refresher smoothie, a fusion of berries that was fresh and really refreshing.

Super cute atmosphere, great quality, and very friendly service. Definitely a hidden gem and already feels like a local favorite — worth visiting if you’re in the area.“

“We went two days in a row and the service was amazing both days. The staff are attentive to all of the customers and made sure that everyone was happy with their drinks/food items. The owner was extremely welcoming as well. The atmosphere was superb and I cannot wait to go back.“

“Feels like being at home…“

“I went to this coffee place i've never been too since I moved to Ft.Lauderdale. About a week ago, I was very indecisive on which coffee to get and this very sweet, young woman, Victoria helped me. I'm not very big on the trends nowadays and she helped me get a very tasty coffee! She's great!“

“My daughter wanted macaroons on her bday cake. We've tried a few places in the area, but this place had the best variety! I got 12 different flavors and they still had some flavors we didn't try this time. They were beautiful and tasted great! I went right when they opened on a Thursday, very polite. We will definitely come again“

“Amazing family breakfast & lunch spot. Been a proud customer of this amazing restaurant for over 14 years. The quality & customer service has never wavered. I will always bring friends and family and recommend to anyone wanting a quality meal.“
