Half Off Wine at Village Tavern

If you're in the Pembroke Pines area, possibly getting out of a late night class in Davie, make your way over to Village Tavern.  This gorgeous restaurant has amazing food, and each and every Wednesday night is half-off wine. That's right, you can get any glass or bottle of wine you wish, for half off its original price.

This award winning restaurant is known to bring people together, with its incredible selection of fine-dine American cuisine.  Between its steaks, fish, burgers, and pizza, you can't go wrong at Village Tavern (especially on a Wednesday night).

I recommend the Shrimp Scampi with any white wine of your choice.  You won't believe how inexpensive your bill will be, and I'm sure you'll be craving a visit the following Wednesday. See what people had to see about Village Tavern, and find out for yourself.

Welcome to Moe's

Moe's Mondays have become more popular than Britney Spears.  Each and every single Monday at Moe's Southwest Grill they offer any burrito, chips, and drink for $5.99.  Moe's makes their food fresh daily, and you can certainly tell by the taste.

A burrito, chips, and drink for under $6 is one of the best deals around.  Its' fun and friendly environment will make you smile from the second you walk in and get greeted with their trademark "Welcome to Moe's!" to the minute you walk out with a full stomach, and a full wallet.  If it's Monday, you should probably be at Moe's, enjoying this great offer.

Dominics II Pizza and Pasta

Dominics II is a delicious place to go for a pie or pasta.  It is a small family owned (so you know it's great) pizza place that makes homemade tomato sauce like you have never tasted.  Also popular on the menu is the garlic rolls, baked ziti, and "Grandma Slice Pizza" with fresh mozzarella. You'll be licking your fingers and asking for more.

This restaurant is completely committed to catering to you, with a policy that if you don't like the food, tell them and they will change it to better fit your taste buds' needs.  Now that's a restaurant. Customer satisfaction is extremely important to them, so you know you'll be taken care of.

Cuban Food..It's South Florida

Living in South Florida means you must enjoy a great Cuban meal.  Caribbean Grill, Boca Raton's first Cuban restaurant, will give you just that.  Growing up with two Cuban parents means that I've had my fair share of Cuban cuisine, and I have an eye, smell, and taste for Cuban food. 

Moving down to Boca meant that I had to find the best Cuban food joint around, and this is it! Caribbean grill is a family owned restaurant, open daily.  They do a great job of creating Cuban delicacies that are flavorful and delicious.  Whether it be Arroz con Pollo, Bistec de Pollo, or even their Mamey Milkshake, they get each recipe just right.  So visit Caribbean Grill if you're in a Cuban mood and you can tell me "gracias" later.

Slice of Fort Lauderdale

I found Slice Pizzeria one day while roaming the streets of Fort Lauderdale between classes.  The big sign on the window screamed "2 Pizzas and Soda $4.95" so I obviously had to check it out.  This Pizzeria is absolutely delicious.  Its menu is off-the-wall amazing, and the food backs it up.  Two pizzas and a soda for $5 is a great deal, and the rest of the menu items are quite inexpensive as well. 

The service is great and the people are friendly.  The best part, is that Slice is literally a 5 minute walking distance from FAU's Fort Lauderdale campus.  So between or after classes, walk over and grab a slice (or two..or three), or call in and order to class. They deliver.

Yo Quiero Taco Bell

If you go to school at FAU and don't live in West Boca, I'm sure it hasn't taken you long to realize that there is no Taco Bell near campus.  The closest Taco Bells include one off of Linton and one on 441.  But it is your lucky day, because there's a brand new Taco Bell opening on Palmetto!

This new facility is beautifully designed, and looks super modern.  It is the talk of the town..well, the college students, and is set to open within the next month.  We all know that Taco Bell is delicious and cheap, especially for those late night munchies.  It always seems as if you order more on the menu, the price gets cheaper.  So now, you can "Think outside the bun" by visiting the new Taco Bell.

Tomasso's Pizza, Subs, and Perfection

Tomasso's Pizza and Subs is one of Boca's best kept secrets.  This small pizza joint is deceiving, because its food is so delicious, and so inexpensive.  It offers the freshest of fresh foods including pizza, subs, pastas, salads, and an extensive tasty menu.

One of the best things about Tomasso's is its dedication to FAU and its students.  The restaurant named menu item after the Fighting Owls called, "Owl Balls".  These consist of a meatball in tomato sauce, inside of a fresh garlic roll.  I know your mouth is drooling, but I have to mention the super-sized slices of pizza Tomasso's serves, and once again, how delicious everything is. 

The service is spectacular and the food is to die for.  Check out Tomasso's for some yummy Italian (and American) favorites, and don't forget to try an Owl Ball!

Wishing for The Wishing Well

The Wishing Well, also affectionately named "The Well" by local college students, is a laid back restaurant/pub located in Mizner.  The average drink price at The Well is $5, which is why it attracts so many people.  In addition to its fabulous drink specials, it offers great live music at night with talented local bands. 

The inside has high ceilings, and is two stories with a pool table and TV's all around for your viewing pleasure, and the outside contains a covered patio with multiple tables.  This Irish Pub is great for a relaxing night out, or even a few drinks and lunch during the day.  Stop by The Well and have a few beers, and request a few songs while you're at it. Enjoy.

Here's a fun video of Rod Stewart imitator George Orr singing at The Well. He looks just like him!
