Best American Restaurants in Pompano Beach

We love Cafe Maxx! It completely made our Christmas to find out they were open on Christmas Day. This restaurant is truly a gem in Pompano Beach. Extra special place to dine.

The food and experience was outstanding. We had the fried mini meatballs which were off the charts delicious and pizza for an appetizer which also was fantastic. For our main dish I had the veal chop on the bone parmigiana which was tender and so tasty and my wife had spaghetti DOP which she loved. Dessert was the waffle with ice cream which complimented our evening perfectly. Another outstanding night at Martoranos. Thank you Steve and Merry Christmas

Food was delicious. Staff was excellent. Great customer service. Very friendly.

The service was amazing. The food was amazing. I had the shrimp and scallop risotto. It’s always excellent and we share the dessert of the crème brûlée bread pudding. It was the best I’ve ever had.

After traveling all day and wanting to go somewhere within walking distance I booked Sands Harbor. We were here several times when Rusty Hook owned the place. No whole fish fried with Thai chili sauce, bummer, but the food was pretty good. Grouper bites were good with yummy tarter sauce (always a good sign). My husband got the steak sandwich after toying with mahi tacos. He said the steak was tender and everything that went along was tasty especially the slaw which was plentiful and pretty delicious, also a sign of a good restaurant. I had the steak bites over Spanish rice with chimmichuri which was delightful, not so sure it was Spanish but very tasty. Lots of crunchy flavorful broccoli to balance out the fried fish bites. And the steak was grilled with mushrooms, peppers and onions, all really delicious. We got a bottle of wine and took the leftovers home. Definitely go that route because the glass pours seemed very small. Our server was a little green but super sweet and took great care of us. We sat under the covered area because it threatened rain but none came along. The open air breeze was so nice after coming from CT’s unpredictable now winter type weather, ugh. Great first day restaurant pick for sure. Not a luxury menu and missed that Thai fish dish but satisfying all the same. I hear the flatbread is nothing special. Our server said the vodka sauce pasta was his favorite but we weren’t feeling pasta. Great views of the intercostal with a nice breeze. Can’t go wrong there. Very relaxing and peaceful.
