June 5, 2014 by

The classic American diner is one of the country’s iconic restaurants, a comfortable, casual space to enjoy reasonably priced food in sizable portions with nothing too fancy. As you might guess from its name, Boynton Beach’s The Diner doesn’t step too far out of that footprint, which is fine by its patrons. Regulars rave about the American classics on offer here. In fact, The Diner is widely recognized as one of the best breakfast deals in town!

Go for an awesome five-egg omelet, which will satiate even the hungriest of diners. Other excellent breakfast options include the eggs with biscuits and gravy and the thick, perfectly crispy Belgian waffles. Chocolate chip pancakes also win raves. For lunch, locals recommend the house-made Angus beef burgers (opt for Cheddar cheese and bacon for a classic meal). Sandwiches are also solid, with the Double Monty a particular favorite.

The Diner is open 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily. Be warned: The wait for a table can get really long, especially on Sunday mornings as the post-church crowd congregates here.

Twirl a Fork Into a Plate of Pasta at Portobella

May 22, 2014 by

When you dine at an Italian restaurant, you go in expecting tradition. Portobella delivers that in spades. Opened by Victor Scarpulla in 1987, this place has a quarter-century of serving up awesome food under its belt, and locals are crazy about the pizza and pasta here.

South Florida isn’t really renowned as a pizza region, but the pies at Portobella are New York-style through and through, with a thin, crispy crust just solid enough to support an excellent sauce and your choice of toppings. Some favorite combinations from regular diners include the Caprese and the Portobella house special, but they’re all quite good. For entrees, the chicken parm is well-received, slathered in sauce and cheese. Pasta dishes also come highly recommended, with the linguine alla Vongole a favorite. Some complain that dinner prices can be a little steep, but you certainly get a lot of food for your money!

Located within the Boynton West shopping center, Portobella is open 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Mondays through Thursdays, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays, and 4 p.m. to 9 p.m. Sundays.
