Frankie Valli- Bee Gees Tribute Show starring William Cintron
The Stage
Bonita Springs, Florida
William Cintron is one of the best Frankie Valli and Bee Gees tribute artists in the business!
Trust me when I tell you- Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have seen Cintron’s Valli and Bee Gees shows and they were absolute dynamite! We have also been to The Stage a number of times and its food/drink/service were right on the money!
Jimmy Williamson and Friends is an outrageously talented group of musicians-who cover Soul, R&B, Jazz, Fusion, Standard, Show Tunes, Rock and more. If you’re into artists such as Frank Sinatra, Gino Vannelli, The Spinners, Bobby Caldwell, Al Jarreau, Marvin Gaye, The Righteous Brothers, Billy Paul, Player, Firefall, England Dan & John Ford Coley, Orleans, Toto, Wild Cherry and Hall & Oates- then you gotta- go see the group on Saturday, April 12th, 2025 (6pm/ Complimentary) at Legends Lounge located in: Seminole Casino Coconut Creek, 5550 NW 40th Street, Coconut Creek, Florida 33073, (954) 977-6700.
For you guys who don’t know the Legends Lounge- I’m telling you that it is one of the coolest “rooms” in all of South Florida-to eat/ drink/ dance and see top notch bands and other live entertainment!
From seminolecasinococonutcreek.com:
Legends Lounge
An elevated lounge experience.
Live entertainment. Top-notch spirits & cocktails. NYY Steak’s signature dishes.
Way-back on 2/15/12 Jeff Eats told you guys about NYY Steak located in the Seminole Casino Creek Coconut Creek- in Coconut Creek. That “review” is down-below…
Long story short, since that “review” was published, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have eaten in NYY something like 5-times, with the latest “outing”- being last night. For what it’s worth, all of the meals that Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have had, were all right on the money!
Last night, I got to thinking that Jeff Eats rarely if ever hears- NYY Steak mentioned in conversations about South Florida’s best steak-joints. No ifs, ands or buts- the 26oz bone-in-ribeye with grilled onions and French fries- that I had last night and didn’t come close to finishing- could easily be matched against the best of breed down here in sunny South Florida-same story for Mrs. Jeff Eats’ pan seared snapper!
Anyway,
Jeff Eats just wanted to mention NYY Steak to you guys, again…
One of the best-“upscale steakhouses” in South Florida is located at the Seminole Casino Coconut Creek in- Coconut Creek…That’s right, the casino where you-gotta wear an oxygen mask because the cigarette smoke is so brutal—as part of a recently completed $150,000,000 renovation/expansion has opened an absolutely georgeous looking steakhouse with fabulous food and service. You can check www.seminolecoconutcreekcasino.com for menu/prices/photos. By the way, NYY is a joint venture–Seminole Indians/New York Yankees (there is another NYY at Yankee Stadium).
NYY…New York Yankees, get it? All kinds, of New York Yankee black/white photos, autographs…no dark wood–or dim lights here…but rather, a great looking open kitchen, light oak woods, bright lights, plenty of glass. Like I said before, an absolutely gorgeous looking joint.
When you check NYY’s menu, try not to get sticker-shock…no question about it- that $51.75 24oz bone in ribeye is “high” even for an upscale steakhouse–Now, I maybe going out on a limb here, but I think- that casino-joints like NYY get a ton of customers using their casino “PLAYER’S CLUB” rewards/points to pay the bill. If I’m right—the restaurant can charge more than what most folks would consider “normal”- because many customers aren’t using real-money. So, if you go there, I think you will find that many of the “diners” are eating on-the-arm.
At this juncture of the discussion, let me tell you that NYY looks totally out of place at the Seminole Casino. Nothing for nothing, but the Seminole Casino isn’t in this boy’s opinion–an upscale looking property. Now, there may-be something more developing at the Seminole Casino that’s gonna get it looking more like the Hard Rock operation in Hollywood-so NYY may eventually make sense, but for right now, NYY looks like a fish out of water. Personally, I don’t see non-casino players making special plans/reservations to eat at NYY, despite the fact that its food is absolutely dynamite.
A recent dinner had me “doing” the aforementioned 24oz ribeye, 28oz porterhouse ($54.75), veal chop milanase ($44.50), roast chicken ($28.50), lemon pepper halibut ($31.50), steak fries ($9.50), lobster mac & cheese ($11). Every item was delicious. On the service front, excellent without the “snotty” know-it-all attitude you find at many upscale steakhouses.
There are two ways to play NYY Steak. You can gamble your heart out…and accumulate points to spend or you can just fork over cash or your credit card at the end of the meal.
NYY Steak is a homerun…pun intended!
NYY Steak is open Monday, Thursday-Sunday 5pm-11pm. The joint is closed on Tuesday and Wednesday

A woman who rented a second story apartment beside a railway line complained to her landlord for months about the rattling and shaking the trains caused as they passed. On the phone she continuously asked for an apartment further from the line but the landlord always said it can’t be that bad. One day she rang him again and said l want you to come to my apartment and see for yourself how bad it is. So the landlord arrived at her apartment and she said there’s a train due in 3 minutes, so you’ll see what l mean. It’s worse when l’m trying to sleep so why don’t you lie on the bed beside me and you’ll experience what l’m talking about? So the landlord lays on the bed beside her. A minute later her husband walked into the bedroom and said “what’s going on here?” The landlord, looking embarrassed, said “you won’t believe this, but we’re waiting for a train.”
