Roosters

Thirty years of deep-frying wings in one building builds a lot of history (and plaque in a lot of arteries). Even so, Roosters packed up the poultry operation in May 2008, moving from the dark, wood-paneled confines of its longtime Southgate Boulevard location to a shiny new space just a few blocks down the road.

Runyon’s Restaurant

With its high ceilings, graceful archways, large wooden tables, and rustic fireplace, Coral Spring’s landmark Runyon’s looks more country inn than steak house.

Sicilian Oven

Coal-fired what? The Sicilian Oven, a partnership between Andrew Garavuso, an ex-Anthony’s Coal Fired pizza guy, and Ralph DiSalvo, whose family ran DiSalvo’s Pizzeria for years, uses two beautiful wood-burning ovens to cook its pies.
