Whether you live nearby or not, I would say that it is worth coming to Burtons Grill. I've been…read morehere twice and left with a happy belly full of delicious sensibly made food. Both visits were for birthdays---the first was mine, when I happened to mention to our server that we were celebrating my birthday and she helped make the experience great. She then exclaimed, "You should have told me it was your birthday! We'll give you a dessert. Would you like to take it home?" Which I did, and the Seven Layer Chocolate Cake was thoroughly enjoyed for breakfast on two different days. I still can't get over the fudge layers in the sponge sandwiched by a light, creamy chocolate mousse. The plated cake was much cuter and better dressed with surrounding raspberry sauce instead of it being in a takeout cup, but the divine tastes of that cake are unchanged. Seeing that the majority of their locations are in the north, with the southernmost locations before Florida being Virginia and South Carolina, I feel lucky that we have a location in South Florida (and a second in Boca Raton). The hostesses are friendly, as well as the servers, and each one asks about allergies in the party. I saw on their website that they have a commitment to accommodating food allergies and a protocol for communicating allergies to the staff and kitchen. The most recent visit started with us repeating allergies to our server after telling our hostess, as he wasn't informed of them. It never hurts to confirm that everyone is on the same page but it was a little odd. I'm not sure what those purple allergy cards are supposed to do if they're not written on. However, like I mentioned, they are really serious about food allergies. When we were placing orders, our server would tell us whether there were allergens in the dishes we mentioned. Our server during my first visit even went back to the kitchen to check whether there were eggs in a sauce that were in one of the dishes we were interested in, without being asked. The inside is clean, beautiful and well lit, and the bar is spacious with plenty of screens if you're able to make it in for their happy hour at the bar from 3-6 PM on Mondays-Fridays. We had the guacamole and chips ($9), which had a surprisingly generous portion of genuine guacamole to the point where we ate all of the white and blue tortilla chips that came with it. I asked our bartender if we could get more chips by any chance, and another bartender heard and went straight to the kitchen and came out with a bowl of warmed tortilla chips. I had an Old Fashioned, which was slightly sweeter than I'm used to, but still having great citrus aromas. I recommend having a cocktail on happy hour as they are typically $15-17 on the regular menu while they are $10 during happy hour. For dinner during my second visit, we were seated in a lounge appearing area to the left of the entrance with long couches for the booth seats and an unfinished cut of wood table. Let me tell you about the food before I run out of space! Bread service: I know it's weird to have to pay for bread, but that's the restaurant world we live in. It's worth the $5 to get warm, fluffy bread dressed with everything seasoning and coming with herbed butter, pesto and an olive tapenade, all a choose-your-own-bread-adventure sampler. You can tell nothing on the plate came out of a jar. Philly cheesesteak rolls: Everyone can eat all 3 of the rolls that come in this dish along with the crispy onion rings that come on top of them. Resist the urge and share the tender beef and gooey cheese inside of these rolls. NY strip: Tender, well grilled and seasoned, accompanied by tasty green beans and mashed potatoes made with just the right amount of butter where you taste more potato than butter or cream. Crab crusted haddock: A generous portion of flaky, slightly buttery haddock with an aromatic crab cake on top. We loved the jasmine rice that came with it, from the degree of cooked to a little oil covering. Lobster roll: It was a summer limited item until August 31, and I'm sorry to say it was perfectly buttered, toasted and brimming with plump lobster meat. You were able to get it cold with a cole slaw, but a hot roll is definitely the move. Did I convince you to go try their food? If not, read this again. I'll see you there.

Big Mike's was recommended by some visiting friends a few weeks ago, so we stopped by today for…read morebreakfast. There is plenty of parking on-site, a few tables outside, and a clean and spacious dining room. We were greeted by both Big Mike himself and a very friendly and personable server (sorry, I don't recall their name). Big Mike's Healthy Choices is a completely gluten-free restaurant with plenty of vegan options. Mike really sold me on the Vegan Western Omelette while my husband went with the Vegan Americana Breakfast. Made with a mung bean base and eggs, my omelet was filled with "bacon", bell pepper and onion, "cheese", and topped with fresh sliced avocado. I decided to swap out the sliced apple for griddled potatoes and was glad I did - they were gooood! The dish was also served with a waffle, which was crisp and delicious. Our server recommended their house-made hot sauce, which was delicious. Not too spicy, but very flavorful. This was the best omelette I've had since switching to a mostly vegan/plant-based diet. 10/10. My hubby's Americana breakfast came with two scrambled "eggs", crispy "bacon", a waffle, and he also went with the griddled potatoes. Also, a very good choice. 10/10. They also sell a variety of sweet treats: muffins, donuts, and cupcakes. We were too full to try them this time, but we'll be back!

Unfortunately, today's visit was disappointing. We chose to sit inside for the AC, but the restaurant was filled with smoke. The meal was probably good, but I could not enjoy it because my eyes were burning and watering. I had to leave and go outside early while my husband paid. After this I had watering eyes, headache and slight nausea for the next hour, and my hair and all my clothes smelled like a dirty grill and everything has to go in the wash. My husband's eyes were burning as well and he was coughing while in the restaurant. This is obviously not right, and they need to seriously address the ventilation in the kitchen. This has never happened before in our years visiting the place. If this was my first experience at this place, it would surely get one star, but I'm keeping it at four stars because of all the previous positive experiences.

The menu has something for everyone, whether you're eating clean, craving Latin flavors, or just want something fresh and satisfying.

I ordered from the vegan menu and started with the fresh lemon and pineapple juice, which was blended right in front of me. It was refreshing and delicious! I also had the vegan empanada, which was packed with flavor. For my entrée, I ordered the edamame noodle pasta with creamy cashew Alfredo sauce and vegan "chicken" made from mushrooms and eggplant. It was served with a side salad that was fresh and absolutely delicious. Every dish was well-prepared and satisfying. The only non-vegan item I had was the black bean brownie topped with chocolate, caramel, walnuts, and almonds, and wow! It was rich, decadent, and one of my favorite parts of the meal. The ambiance was beautiful, clean, and relaxing, making it a great place to enjoy a meal or even get some work done. The service was outstanding, friendly, attentive, and easily a 10/10. Overall, everything was great. Whether you're vegan or just looking to try something different, I'd definitely recommend giving Sano Food Kitchen & Market a try. I'll definitely be back!

The staff seemed unsure of what I was referring to, and I got the impression they may have been new. Another employee stepped in to help, which I appreciated.

You could tell the ingredients were fresh and it didn't have that generic corporate chain flavor. The steak was tender, the sauce paired really well, and I especially enjoyed the corn in the bowl. Overall, I'm glad I gave this place a try. I do think the staff could benefit from better training, and I was disappointed by being overcharged compared to the advertised online price.

This has become one my favorite Italian restaurants! Everytime I get my nails done I pass by this…read morerestaurant and make a mental note that I want to try it. Well, I finally did! The restaurant opens at 4:30 and it's located in the embassy lakes plaza shopping center. It's not very big inside and reservations are highly recommended. I didn't have any reservations so I got lucky when I arrived at 6:00 and was able to get a table for two. Soon after the restaurant started to get very busy. I noticed the huge wine collection they have and how every table had either a a glass of wine or a bottle of wine. Immediately I knew then I had to try a glass. We started with the burrata Siciliana. This was not what we imagined but it was huge and yummy. I was craving soup so we shared the pasta fagioli soup. This tasted exactly how my MIL makes it! And then I got the Pappardelle with salmon and shrimp. I can still taste how delicious this was. Every ingredient was perfectly blended together with a flavorful sauce. It was cooked to perfection. All the meals were incredibly delicious and huge! At first we felt rushed to order, but that changed after we got our appetizer. Our waitress was attentive and checked in on us from time to time. This is such a good restaurant and I can't wait to come back!

We have finally made it to sweet love pastry after having it bookmarked for years. My daughter was…read moreoff early today and we were all able to manage to stop by before they closed for the day. The shop is small, with the daily selections in a glass case, but you can see some of the kitchen in the back where the bakes come from. A lot of cupcakes were left, but my daughter hasn't had much luck with vegan cupcakes; mainly because most are too sweet for her. Other options were muffins, donuts, two black and white cookies, and some other flavors of mini loaves. We were assured that everything was vegan, with the exception of the banana bread mini loaf. However, my daughter had been concerned because the board to the side had claimed that the cookies weren't vegan, but asking the girl who was checking us out again, she said that it was indeed vegan. My wife got a blueberry muffin and a red velvet cupcake, which isn't pictured. She said that they were both dry. But she understood that she wasn't part of the crowd that the bakery is intended for (vegans and those suffering from gluten allergies). I tried the muffin and thought it had a nice flavor, but the texture is a little different from what I'm used to since I'm also not gluten free. When my daughter tries her desserts, I will come back to update my review. Finally, while checking out, the cashier gave us a 10% off coupon which was very kind of her to do. Also don't forget, when you check in you get a 10% your first order! I may not come back myself, but if your someone who is vegan, gluten free, or likes trying new bakeries, I say give them a try! They're surely worth the price and kind faces!
