Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlor (Wellington)

***** Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlor, 2793 South State Road 7, Wellington, Florida 33414, (561) 328-6401.

Jeff Eats first found this joint- back in December, 2014…since then I’m thinking that I’ve probably eaten there something like 8 or 9 times- and each and every time Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlor’s stuff was right on the money!

The reason for this latest shout-out…its $17.95 Tour Of Italy Special- 1/2 lasagna/ 1 chicken parm/ 1 meatball/ 1 sausage/ 2 garlic rolls/ soup or salad- which I had for dinner last night! Absolutely delicious! For the curious, Mrs. Jeff Eats is/was in NYC visiting her sister, Marcia.

Let me wrap this tale up for you guys by saying- if you live or work near Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlor- give it a shot!

***** Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlor, 2793 South State Road 7, Wellington, Florida 33414, (561) 328-6401.

Real simple concept going on here at…Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza- order at the counter/food delivered to your table. The joint seats 60.

Jimmy Brooklyn’s is a relatively new-player in the Wellington pizza arena…its only been around for something like 3- months.

Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats recently did dinner and I gotta tell you, we really enjoyed the joint. First things first, the décor is real-cool, with all kinds of NYC-Brooklyn flavored decorations. If you ain’t from Brooklyn/NYC- not too much that I can say, but hey!-the joint is called Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlor with the operative word here being BROOKLYN’S.

Anyway,

Jimmy Brooklyn’s menu has the expected full-boat of appetizers, pizzas, salads, subs, pastas, meat/chicken entrees/desserts. You can check jimmybrooklynpizza.com for menu/prices/info.

Like I said 3.8 seconds ago, you order at the counter-they bring the food to your table.

The meal…Caesar salad (large-$7.95), meatball roll (mozzarella/romano cheese-$9.50) tortellini alfredo (2 garlic rolls-$11.50), slice of cheese pizza ($2.00), Sicilian slice of pizza ($2.50)–everything was A-OK! Second things second, Jimmy Brooklyn’s does slices- so, if pizza is your game, you can order a bunch of slices with different toppings-instead of getting stuck with a whole pie etc. etc. etc!

Let Jeff Eats wrap this up for you,

Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlors’ food is as good- as that served-up by most of the “mom & pop” red sauce joints-that dot South Florida’s dumpy strip center landscape. Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlors’ prices are comparable to the “mom & pop” joints- but for the same money, the “mom & pop” joints- give you full service-and “more” food in the pasta/entrée department (ie, unlimited garlic rolls and soup/or salad)- on the other hand, Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlor kinda limits your “tip” exposure.

Like I said before, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats enjoyed the joint…it’s definitely worth a try!

Jimmy Brooklyn’s Pizza Parlor is open Sunday-Thursday 11am-10pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-11pm, closed on Monday.

***** Toa Toa Chinese Restaurant.

Here’s a terrific “out of sight, out of mind” Chinese joint for you…Toa Toa Chinese Restaurant.

The truth be told, Jeff Eats hadn’t been back to Toa Toa since I “reviewed” the joint on 11/13/2008- that is until last night…

Had dinner with Mrs. Jeff Eats and two other couples and Toa Toa blew all 6-of us-away. The beautiful thing about this joint is that it “does” delicious dim sum, delicious Authentic Chinese Food and delicious American Chinese Food. Ordered stuff included- baked bbq pork buns, deep fried shrimp dumplings, steam chicken buns, wonton soup, Peking pork chops, kung pao chicken, beef congee, General Tso’s chicken, beef chow fun, roast pork fried rice…like I said 1.4 seconds ago, the food was delicious.

Toa Toa is a huge winner- really kicking myself for not getting back-there sooner!

You can check menu/prices at toatoachineserestaurant.com.

***** Toa Toa Chinese Restaurant, 4145 NW 88th Avenue, Sunrise, Florida 33351 (954) 746-8833.

If dim sum is your game, I got a real good joint for you…Toa Toa located in Sunrise, Florida. This is a real “hole-in-the-wall” but the food is outrageously good and cheap. For sure, Toa Toa has tons of the old Brooklyn “standards” but most folks who eat here are into dim sum…loads of dumplings and pot stickers to choose from and the bbq pork stuffed buns are worth the trip alone.

Nothing fancy here…but all of the Chinese folks eating there should be telling you something.

This joint is open every day 11am-10pm, except Wednesday when it is closed. This one, is worth a special trip.

Menu/info: carcionespizza.com

For you guys who may be wondering as to- how Jeff Eats found this hole in the wall-pizza joint with steel bars on its windows…Carcione’s Pizza is 3 blocks away from the auto- body repair shop which Mrs. Jeff Eats unfortunately has-had to do business with- numerous times over the past 17 years!

Anyway,

Yesterday, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats tried Carcione’s Pizza and I gotta tell you that its food was real good! Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and auto body shop workers- Eddie, Carmen and Jamel (who shared our takeout order)- loved everything!

I know that some of you guys enjoy a drop of color- about the stuff that Jeff Eats- eats! With the caveat that what I like, you might hate and vice versa- I gotta tell you that the joint makes a real nice New York Style Slice- thin/crispy/sweet sauce/nice fold with the requisite oil drip…(hopefully, you can now start to appreciate how dumb this whole food reviewing food business really is).

Like I said 3 seconds ago, Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats, Eddie The Body Shop Guy, Carmen The Body Shop Guy and Jamel The Body Shop Guy really enjoyed the joint’s pizza, garlic rolls, sausage & peppers sub and chicken parm- and all five of us recommend that you guys give Carcione’s Pizza a shot (just between you guys and me, I’m really thinking that Jamel knows his red sauce stuff😛)!

Trust me on this one, this joint’s stuff is dynamite!

***** Bambini’s Garden Pizzeria, 14466 Military Trail, Delray Beach, Florida 33484, 561) 638-6442.

This is a real simple tale to tell…

If you want some of the most delicious New York Style pizza, hot/cold subs, stromboli- down here in sunny South Florida…get yourself over to Bambini’s Garden Pizzeria in Delray Beach.

Just so you know, the joint is owned by the same folks that own- The Boys Farmers Market in Delray Beach (see review 10/17/14) …Bambini’s is basically a takeout, but there is limited indoor/outdoor seating.

This past Sunday afternoon, Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats had a bunch of friends over to our home in Boca Raton…to feed the hordes of people- we picked up from Bambini’s 2- 20″ cheese pizzas ($14.99 each), 1- 20″ meatball pizza ($16.99), 1-20″ white pizza ($17.99), 3- 10″ chicken parmesan subs ($7.99 each), 3- 10″ eggplant parmesan subs ($7.99 each), 4- 10″ sausage/peppers/onions subs ($7.99 each), 3- pepperoni Stromboli ($9.99 each) and I am telling you EVERYTHING was delicious.

No fooling here, Bambini’s stuff literally blew Jeff Eats, Mrs. Jeff Eats and our friends away.

For what it’s worth-Jeff Eats had been hearing about this joint for months- and this past Sunday was the day “I” decided to give it a shot. The pizza was as close to perfect as can be… thin crispy crust, sweet sauce- the subs’ fillings were dynamite/the semolina seeded bread was terrific, the prices- tons of food for cheap money!

No crapping you guys, I couldn’t have picked a better joint for this particular home-event!

Bambini’s Garden Pizzeria is an absolute must try.

To make sure we are straight on the facts… basically a takeout, limited menu (stromboli, subs, wraps, salads, pizzas)- and if you are wondering, the joint “does pizza by the slice.”

Bambini’s website-bambinisgardenpizza.com- is kinda useless, no menu info provided.

Bambini’s Garden Pizzeria is open Monday-Thursday & Saturday 10:30am-9pm, Sunday 10:30am-7pm.
