Parker Playhouse
PRICE$ 33.92 – $57.50

A GrammyAward and Oscar Award-winner and a Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, Darlene Love is “one of the greatest singers of all time,” according to Rolling Stone magazine. An iconic voice of the 1960s on The Crystals hits “He’s a Rebel” and “He’s Sure the Boy I Love” and tracks such as “Today I Met the Boy I’m Gonna Marry” and “Christmas (Baby Please Come Home),” it’s no wonder The NewYork Times raves: “Darlene Love’s thunderbolt voice is as embedded in the history of rock and roll as Eric Clapton’s guitar or Bob Dylan’s lyrics.”

Charm City Burger Company (Deerfield Beach)
Posted on February 24th, 2015

***** Charm City Burger Company, 1136 East Hillsboro Boulevard, Deerfield Beach, Florida 33441, (954) 531-0300.

Last night Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats ate at fast-food burger joint, Charm City in Deerfield Beach.

Nothing for nothing, we have been eating at this- order at/pickup at the counter joint since April 17, 2008-so last night’s terrific- bacon cheeseburger, turkey burger, French fries, onion rings came as no “surprise”…

Seeing all of those New York, New Jersey. Ontario license plates on the road,

Just thought I’d mention Charm City to you guys- who have yet to eat there…this joint is an absolute winner! Trust Jeff Eats when I tell you that Charm City runs circles and I do mean circles around fast food burger players like Five Guys and BurgerFi -now, there is absolutely nothing wrong with either of them (Jeff Eats is a real steady customer of both chains), but they are cookie cutter mold type operations, like-you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all!…Charm City is a one-shot-deal, there is only one…so on and so forth.

Great food. Super reasonable prices. Cool vibe!

Back on April 17, 2008 I did a review on a “burger” joint named Charm City Burger Company. If you check that review, I absolutely loved the food. At that time, the joint had only been open for something like 3-months…and I questioned its “longevity” based on its piss-poor location. To make a long story short…the joint is still around– has new owners– has a cult-like following—and the food is absolutely DELICIOUS.

At this stage of this re-review check www.charmcityburgers.com for menu/prices.

All I can tell you, is that I was in the joint last week…delicious bacon cheeseburger, terrific french fries, great sweet potato fries, incredible chicken wings. sensational grilled chicken and soft shell crab rolls.

Order/pickup at the counter. Absolutely nothing fancy here. Just…outstanding food.

Charm City is open 7 days a week for lunch and dinner.

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

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.

SICILIAN PEPPERONI PIZZA

Latest Review: 3/29/15

If you’re looking for a joint to hold your college class reunion at, Tippi’s Pizza ain’t gonna work for you…maybe its got 2-3 tables…that said, definitely one of the best “Sicilian” pies down here in sunny South Florida.

Trust Jeff Eats when I tell you- Tippi’s Pizza makes awesome pizzas and dynamite subs. By the way, the joint’s New York Style Pepperoni Pizza is also a huge winner.

This joint is an absolute must try!

***** Tippi’s Pizza, 5778 Okeechobee Boulevard, West Palm Beach, Florida 33417, (561) 681-9224.

Got a real “hole in the wall” pizza joint for you…Tippi’s Pizza in West Palm Beach. Think takeout here- as the joint maybe has 2-3 tables.

Tippi’s Pizza’s menu has a nice selection of appetizers, salads, hot/cold subs, pastas, calzones, pizzas, meat/chicken/seafood entrees.

A few days ago I took some stuff out from Tippi’s…large plain pizza, meatball parmigiana sub, veal parmigiana sub, sausage & peppers sub, —every item was right on the money. Now I don’t want to “intrude” on my pals over at www.worstpizza.com domain–but I think, that Tippi’s pizza could successfully be sold at any NYC pizza joint. The slice, crisp-thin crust/sweet sauce/delicious cheese and when folded and pointed down- had the requisite oil drip. The $7 subs were also “perfect”—nice hard- crusty sub roll and the messy fillings were exactly what I like when I’m in front of the tv with a 2-liter bottle of Coke to wash things down.

Let me close this story out this way…if Tippi’s was in my neighborhood, I’d be a very good customer.

Tippi’s Pizza is open Monday-Thursday 11am-11pm, Friday-Saturday 11am-midnight, Sunday 11am-10pm
