***** Cricket’s Fabulous Sandwiches & Deli, 3667 North Federal Highway, Pompano Beach, Florida 33064, (954) 532-7642.

Cricket’s is a “sub-sandwich-salad” joint located in Pompano Beach. At this stage of the proceedings, I could go into the whole Pinocchio story etc., but I’ll save you the agony…kinda boring, trying to be cute all the time.

Anyway…Cricket’s food is absolutely dynamite. Now, it’s literally impossible to rate 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-etc. South Florida’s top sub-joints, but I will tell you, that Cricket’s stuff is right up there with the best in the game.

A recent outing had me doing…tuna sub, chicken salad sub, pork Cuban sandwich, roast beef on rye, Caesar salad—like I said a few seconds ago, the food is absolutely dynamite.

You can check menu/prices at www.cricketssandwiches.com.

I know that this review may-be a drop on the short side…trust me, Cricket’s subs/sandwiches/salads will not disappoint.

Cricket’s is open Monday-Saturday 11am-6pm.
