***** Basilico’s Original Hand-Tossed Pizza, 9140 Forest Hill Boulevard, Wellington, Florida 33411, (561) 333-4949.
Last night, Jeff Eats took-out from red sauce Italian joint… Basilico’s Original Hand-Tossed Pizza in Wellington. and I gotta tell you, this restaurant makes some really delicious stuff.
Real simple concept, order at the counter/takeout…or the food is delivered to something like 6 inside booths/handful of outside tables. By the way, the restaurant is located in a very quaint cool looking “New England” style strip-center…which also has a Chinese joint, a Dunkin’ Donuts, an ice cream store, a custom cake- making store, a liquor store–you won’t think- you’re in Florida! Real interesting, in addition to ice cream and yogurt-the ice cream store sells fresh orange juice quarts/gallons-candy by the pound, and has a whole area for fresh flowers…the Chinese joint which is basically a takeout has 4 large 6- seat booths-for those who want to eat-in. Like I said 1 second ago, the strip center has a real different feel to it!
Anyway…
Jeff Eats “got to” Basilico’s around 6:30pm last night and there was something like 8 guys behind the counter making pizzas etc. and 2 young ladies at the register. In the 25 minutes or so that I waited for my order, every booth inside was taken and I watched numerous pickups and phone orders being taken…I didn’t notice anyone eating outside.
Basilico’s menu is loaded with appetizers, salads, pizzas, pastas, strombolis, calzones, hot/cold subs, entrees. You can check its menu/prices at basilicospizza.com.
Ordered items included large 16″ pizza ($9.99), Chicken parmesan sub ($7.99), sausage & peppers stromboli ($6.79), eggplant parmesan entrée (pasta side/garlic breadsticks- $10.59) and like I said 3 seconds ago, the stuff was really delicious.
Look!
Jeff Eats has been to his fair share of red sauce Italian joints down here in south Florida and- this Basilico’s joint is a huge winner. The food was really-solid, the prices CHEAP (I believe I’m suppose to say inexpensive or very reasonable)-trust me, Basilico’s gives you a ton of food for cheap-money-and the food isn’t crap quality!
Let me wrap this up for you, if Basilico’s was by my house (which unfortunately it isn’t) Jeff Eats would definitely be a very steady customer.
Basilico’s Original Hand-Tossed Pizza is open 7 days a week.
***** The Baked Bear, 2604 Sawgrass Mills Circle, Suite 112S, Sunrise, Florida 33323, (954)686-2909.
Got a real good ice cream joint for you guys to checkout- The Baked Bear in Sunrise. Playing GPS— The Baked Bear is located right across from The Cheesesteak Factory in the Sawgrass Mills mega mall.
Real short tale to tell, order/ pickup at counter, handful of inside tables, ‘build’ your own ice cream sandwich from in-house baked cookies and in-house made ice cream, toppings, ice cream cones/bowls.
Yesterday afternoon- Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats “discovered” The Baked Bear and I gotta tell you that the ice cream sandwiches and bowl we concocted were absolute dynamite! Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, in my entire lifetime- I can’t ever recall eating a cookie or ice cream which didn’t work for me! That said, for sure there were better cookies than others, same for the ice creams, anyway- trust me when I tell you that The Baked Bear’s cookie and ice cream assortments were both right on the money!
Let me wrap The Baked Bear up by saying…
The Baked Bear is open:
Monday-Thursday 1pm-9:30pm, Friday 1pm-10pm, Saturday=Sunday noon-10pm.
You guys can check menu/prices/info at thebakedbear.com.

***** DePietro’s Pizzeria & Restaurant, 2550 Okeechobee Boulevard, West Palm Beach, Florida 33409, (561) 697-4992.
You guys and Jeff Eats both know that here in Florida there are more “mom & pop” red sauce Italian joints than there are Chins in a Chinese phonebook (I know, Soupy Sales 1957!)- with that in mind, the goal here (that being jeffeats.com) is to find-according to Jeff Eats’ tastebuds the best ones!
Unless you’re two years or younger, or you’re a recently arrived visitor from Planet Venus- you know that the DePietro’s has booth/table seating, a reasonably priced menu loaded with- appetizers/ salads/ calzones/ strombolis/ subs/ pastas/ pizzas/ entrees most of which come with soup or salad, pasta side, garlic rolls!
Last night, Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and Daughter Jeff Eats gave DePietro’s a shot and I gotta tell you- the joint scored real-good! All 3-Eats enjoyed the food and the service was as pleasant as could be!
Let me wrap DePietro’s up by telling you guys that you can check menu/prices/info at depietrospizzeriaandrestaurant.net, that it’s open Monday-Saturday 11am-9pm/ closed Sunday and that if the joint was a drop closer to Jeff Eats’ Boca Raton abode- Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats would be real steady customers!

***** Pickle Barrel Deli & Delicatessen, 133 East Hillsboro Boulevard, Deerfield Beach, Florida 33441 (954) 427-0650.
I am now going to give you the name of one of South Florida’s great “order at the counter delis”…Pickle Barrel. This joint has been around since 1974 and makes some of the most delicious deli sandwiches and salads that you have ever tasted. Take a look at Pickle’s website at www.picklebarrelfl.com for menu/prices.
I am telling you…the food at this joint is absolutely amazing. The corned beef, pastrami, turkey and tuna-shrimp-chicken salads are about as good as it gets…throw in your choice from 6 breads, 12 condiments and 5 cheeses and this joint can whip-up some heavy-duty combination sandwiches. As for prices, although Pickle Barrel is located right next-door to a pawn shop, you won’t have to go into hock for this joint’s sandwiches or salads… Pickel’s prices are in-line with your favorite neighborhood sub shop’s menu.
Pickle Barrel is open Monday-Friday 9am-6pm, Saturday 9am-5pm and Sunday 9:30am-4:30pm.
