***** Kelly’s Homemade Ice Cream, 3114 Corrine Drive, Orlando, Florida 32803, (321)226-8685.

Got a real good homemade ice cream/sorbet joint for you guys- Kelly’s Homemade Ice Cream in Orlando.

Real simple concept working here, order/pickup at counter, good handful of off the chart-delicious “every day” hard ice cream and sorbet flavors, handful of “seasonal” hard ice cream and sorbet flavors, indoor/outdoor seating.

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats recently gave Kelly’s a shot- and I’m telling you guys-that the joint’s stuff is definitely worth checking out. Just between us, Jeff Eats has never met an ice cream “cone” that I didn’t like- with that in mind, I gotta tell you, Kelly’s homemade ice cream is definitely playing in a whole different league than most of the product- I’ve come across on my “many” Florida ice cream store/supermarket sojourns!

Kelly’s Homemade Ice Cream is open Sunday 11am-9pm, Monday-Thursday 12pm-9pm, Friday 12pm to 10pm, Saturday 11am-10pm.

***** Johnny Pies Pizzeria, 4855 Coconut Creek Parkway, Coconut Creek, Florida 33063, (954) 597-6969.
Got a real good pizza joint for you guys to checkout, Johnny Pies Pizzeria in Coconut Creek.

Real simple tale to tell- the joint has been open for something like 2 weeks, handful of tables, menu of reasonably priced- pizzas/ salads/ pastas/ hot & cold heroes/ entrees/ other stuff, open 7 days a week 11am-9pm.

Last night Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats “discovered” Johnny Pies Pizzeria- splitting a salad and pepperoni pizza and I gotta tell you, right on the money delicious!

Trust Jeff Eats on this one, I know that 1-pizza and 1-salad – don’t automatically make a joint a keeper, so Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats got plans to do Round 2- when we’ll try some of the joint’s chicken parm, garlic rolls and other stuff out! That said, based on Johnny Pies Pizzeria’s thin/crispy/sweet sauce New York Style Slices and Italian Salad- the joint is definitely looking real good in my book!

A recent e-mail from reader, JKI…

Jeff Eats,
My wife and I recently (5/13/17) moved to West Palm Beach from Akron, Ohio where we were both born and lived for over 68 years.
Came across your site yesterday and I wanted to tell you about the Okeechobee Steak House in West Palm Beach. We ate there last night and the food and service were great and the prices beyond reasonable.
When you get a chance check this restaurant out, because it’s terrific.
Thank you,
JKI

JKI,

Welcome to South Florida.
Thanks for the heads-up!
Thanks for “reading”…

The Okeechobee Steak House has been around for something like 68 years. Low key joint, that serves up top notch steaks/seafood at reasonable prices with no drama!-(or is it dramaless?)…

Anyway,

Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, with all of the great steaks/seafood- many people over-look the joint’s Prime Steak Burger- which is off the chart delicious.

***** Okeechobee Steak House, 2854 Okeechobee Boulevard, West Palm Beach, Florida 33409, (561) 683-5151.

The Okeechobee Steak House has been in business since 1947. The joint is open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner.

The Okeechobee Steak House is not a fancy schmancy upscale steakhouse. That said, the food is terrific and the menu is priced right. For around 35-40 bucks a head, you get salad, entree and side dishes. A similar meal at a fancy schmancy joint- which is maybe a 1/2 a notch higher in quality and service would run you $55-60.

The Okeechobee Steak House serves top quality steaks and seafood. Like I said a few seconds ago, it isn’t a fancy schmancy joint with tee shirts/shorts being pretty common there. What makes this a “beautiful” place is that it doesn’t take itself seriously like “upscale” joints do. The game here is good food and good service in a real-easy atmosphere.

Look…you don’t stay in business for 61 years without doing something right. Try this joint, you will really enjoy the food.

***** Kings Pizza- New York Style, 6550 International Drive, Orlando, Florida 32819, (407) 801-5383.

Found a real good pizza joint for you guys to check out, King’s Pizza- New York Style in Orlando.

Real simple concept at work here- order/pickup at counter, handful of tables/counter seating, big slices/pies, small handful of other stuff!

The other day, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats were up in Orlando and needed- a couple of slices…We gave King’s Pizza a shot and I gotta tell you guys- the joint makes a real nice New York Style slice (thin crisp crust, sweet sauce, nice fold, nice oil drip)- and its $4.95 slice/can of soda “deal” was exactly what the doctor ordered!

Let me wrap King’s Pizza- New York Style up for you guys- by saying, if you’re looking for a big New York Style slice (and who isn’t?) this joint will absolutely-positively work for you!

You can check menu/prices/info at kingspizzaorlando.com.

King’s Pizza- New York Style is open Sunday-Thursday 5pm-midnight, Friday-Saturday 5pm-1am.
