    BLT
    Roy F.

    A local place we were not aware of was just the spot for our lunch adventure today. Specials and choices from their lunch menu were considered and I went with the BLT. Toasted white bread, mayo, fresh ripe tomatoes, six strips of crispy bacon and a half head of trimmed romaine lettuce, made this sandwich earn the ranking of the BEST BLT I have ever enjoyed!

    Wow indeed !!!

    The theme " Super" from Sunday and that little Bowl game in Houston,Texas continues for me to " Marvelous Monday"!!!! I just experienced a Super, Amazing, Delicious and Huge breakfast & Super service and love at Pudgie's Cafe. A million thanks to my dear Yelp friend Stephen S who is a regular here and wrote an awesome review of this great gem tucked away just east of Federal Highway in a row of shops between a Marine life store and a window/blinds business on NE 16th Street. Perfect scenario as I had to bring my vehicle in for service to the dealer on W Sample Rd about a 9 minutes drive from Pudgie's. This is a very unassuming, quiet spot with parking spots in the front and maybe 6 counter seats and 4 small tables. I received a warm greeting from Manny, the owner/chef and the very sweet waitress Debbie. I sat at the counter and ordered a 3 egg omelete with vegetables, wheat toast and a side of bacon. It was an absolute treat to see Manny prepare and flip the omelette. Maybe " Super " size was the operative word as I was served this beautiful, sculpted, 12" by 4" masterpiece with spinach, mushrooms, tomatoes and onions that were cooked and sautéed just perfectly. It was hot, it was delicious, it was just right!!! The bacon was crisp and lovely!! The toast was hot and great with just the proper amount of butter on it!! Coffee was self serve. There was a lovely and relaxed vibe at Pudgie's as the regulars came in around 845-900 am and the phone for take out and delivery kept ringing. Loved it!!! I loved and devoured my eggs de resistance!! Absolutely loved the great service from Debbie. A regular seated next to meet the counter ordered the Eggs Benedict and they looked absolutely divine. I was in and out in 22 minutes( yes I am a fast eater who does forget sometimes to chew every bite 33 times) and this had to be one of the best breakfasts I have had in a long, long time. Eleven bucks for a SUPER three egg omelette, toast, side of bacon( 3 large strips) and bottomless coffee is a bargain!!!! There is nothing quiet about how I felt and am feeling right now!! I just want to yell out" I love Pudgie's Cafe!". Loved Pudgie's, loved my breakfast and loved Manny and his wonderful staff. How can I possibly top this at lunchtime????

    A great place for great food with great value for money I eat here all the time However, every time I call in an order They don't start to make it until I get there otherwise 5 stars definitely The daily specials are amazing Highly recommended and very clean, even the bathrooms

    A local tucked away neighborhood joint that serves up good home style food.. Breakfast is always good and they have daily fresh cooked specials for lunch.. Small place with 8 stools along the counter and 6 tables.. I had my usual at this establishment the Ham & Cheddar Cheese omelet with red potatoes and rye toast. The beverages are self-service so don't feel like your imposing going behind the counter to get your own soft drinks from the machine. The situation is the same for the coffee. Self-service. Don't be shy. Manny the cook is a character right out of a Saturday night live restaurant skit. He always has something to say and he takes his time cooking your food. You get it when you get it. He doesn't rush.. Worth checking out . I certainly will be back soon.

    I'm in town visiting and I have demanded to come here every day. If I were going to the electric chair, my last meal would be four pudgie muffins.

We chose to sit outside to enjoy the view. It was a little warm, but definitely worth it for the scenery. We ordered the shrimp sushi roll and the fresh catch branzino. The shrimp roll was excellent and definitely our favorite. The branzino was fresh and well prepared, though it wasn't our favorite dish of the meal. Our friends ordered the burger with fries, and they absolutely loved it. The service was friendly and attentive throughout our visit, which made the experience even better. Overall, we had a wonderful time and would definitely come back for the views, great service, and delicious food.

    We've been told that it's better to eat here in the winter because it's nicer to eat on the patio,…read moreso we will be back! We landed in Ft. Lauderdale and drove over here since we were in the area. Their fish tacos were one of their popular dishes so I opted for that and my husband got chicken cordon bleu. We also got the trout dip with pita bread but I didn't get a picture of that because we were all starving and then dessert was key lime pie and pistachio gelato. I did not expect the tacos to be so big. I also got this place mixed up with another place called the beach house so I was looking at the completely wrong menu! I took a pic for anyone looking and didn't feel like clicking 4x to get to it on their website. Back to the tacos -- the slaw was very juicy so don't forget to place your napkin! The mango salsa was not too sweet to overpower the rest of the taco and the beans and rice -- we were told was cooked in beef broth so it was very flavorful! It was way too much food to eat in one sitting (although I somehow managed to down 7/8 of that gelato it's a stomach mystery! And I don't like keylime pie so I didn't try it but the crust looked AMAZING! See ya in March! We're coming for you, patio! *side note: even though it was 94 degrees outside, they had a ton of fans blowing indoors and I was really cold. Goosebumps cold. My husband went to get my hoodie from the car and it's valet parking so he made a trek!

They tell you to wait to be seated, yet there is no one assigned to seat guests. The waiters can clearly see there is a line, but no one takes the initiative to step up and seat anyone. Management seems very unorganized. They should assign one person specifically to seat guests, and when there is no wait, that person could float and assist elsewhere. After waiting, I finally asked a waiter if I could seat myself. I sat down and waited almost 10 minutes, and no one even came to offer water. At that point, I decided to get up and take my business elsewhere. The service today was horrible, and it seems that as they get busier, the service gets even worse. I do not recommend this place at all.

    I just left the hotel after spending two nights there for a staycation. I was very pleased with my…read morestay. The hotel is made of two towers. I was in the southern tower room 5509. It is an ocean-view king room. This means the room is on the side of the building but still had a great view of the ocean. You enter valet on the northern side of the building. The valet Matt was quick, friendly and helped with my luggage. Valet is $44 a day. There was a short line at the front desk but there were two employees working and it went quick. The $45 resort fee covers chairs and umbrellas on the beach and two complementary drinks. You can pick from a small list of drinks including beer, g&t and wine. They also offer a morning exercise routine. Monday was yoga by the pool. The room was large with a nice modern design, a small couch and side table and a nice balcony with two chairs and a table. There was a coffee maker and fridge but no microwave. We ordered room service and had breakfast out on the balcony one morning. There were games setup in one of the meeting rooms right outside the pool and free popcorn was offered daily. The pool was large with plenty of chairs but people did save seats early in the morning. I went down at 9am and there were about five seats not claimed and only around eight people at the pool. Everyone else started showing up to their saved chairs around 10am. The pool did get less crowded with fewer children as the day went on. By 3pm there were more open chairs available. The beach is right outside the gate. Along with the chairs and umbrellas there is a sand pit with toys for the kids, a tiki bar and volleyball net. The hotel is very clean with modern decor. It is in a very residential area so there aren't any shops or restaurants around to walk too. Everything is about a mile south near the pier. It was the perfect place for rest and relaxation which is exactly what I was looking for.

Housekeeping staff are super kind, and anything we needed arrived quickly! The negative: Don't waste your money! We paid $400+ per night (amenities included, valet separate) and found out the hotel sells $45/day passes to non-guests. We had an issue with our room, and the hotel could not move us because it was full. We were told we'd get 2 chairs, access to the private beach, and 2 welcome drinks. No chairs, all 4 days we were there (party of 8). The welcome drinks were gin, non-ach or wine... Service was extremely slow, the pool was overcrowded, and the staff was so cranky/rude that everyone seemed to dislike their job. For a hotel marketed as a remodeled, luxury spa retreat, this was disappointing and not what we paid for. The icing on the cake was waiting 30m+ to valet our car due to the influx of people coming and going, oh, and having to bring our own luggage up and down due to no carts. Spoke with Ricardo about our entire stay, and he just stared at my husband, then proceeded to say, "Well, when you go to Disney on a holiday weekend, it's going to be busy." Sir... when I go to Disney, I know it's going to be crowded because it's DISNEY. You're a Marriott selling $400+ rooms a night and over-crowding your hotel, causing your guests to not enjoy the amenities you're claiming to provide, then when we say we are unhappy, you don't even bother trying to work with us; you looked annoyed. I wish we read the comments before staying because it seems to be a recurring theme.

A few small tables set against the wall and a few larger tables on the outside sidewalk. Doesn't look like much thought was placed on the design here. Service: Didn't wait at all for one of those small inside tables. My server was efficient and served my tea latte exactly as requested. Little things can often make the difference between a successful dining experience and not and here were a few of the small things that were provided that make a difference. I ordered the pancakes and my server suggested a side of scrambled eggs. The food: I received two pancakes which were well done, light and fluffy and the perfect size. I also received plenty of butter (so many places don't give you enough butter) an ample amount of steamed milk for my tea (another area that always seems to be pretty hard to get right). One thing that always drives me crazy was the fact that my scrambled eggs were served in the same dish as my pancakes. I hate this as the syrup inevitably gets to the eggs. Fortunately, I had a second small dish under my tea (which is also a great thing to get, to place my tea bag). I used this dish for my eggs. Another nice convenience was the mug for my tea which had a handle that I could actually put my fingers through (another area that restaurants fail to provide). In addition, I also ordered a side of sausage which came in patties form and was pretty tasty. The Bottom Line: As always my "customer so what" would I come back? The answer, probably. Although the ambiance was substandard, the food was good the service was as well so, it more than likely would be worth another visit on my next stop in town.
