***** Latitudes Restaurant, 2809 South Ocean Boulevard, Highland Beach, Florida 33487 (561) 278-2008.

Jeff Eats first told you guys about Latitudes Restaurant on 9/15/09.

For our purposes, we’re gonna call this “tale” A PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT- Latitudes is an absolute must try American-Style breakfast/lunch/dinner joint! Outrageously delicious food, great service, reasonable prices, indoor & outdoor decor/beach views that are absolute off the chart dynamite.

Over the past 8 years, I’m gonna guess that Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats have eaten breakfast/ lunch/ dinner at Latitudes something like 25 times (which includes Jeff Eats and Mrs. Jeff Eats’ dinner last night- which prompted today’s Public Service Announcement) maybe even more! Like I said a couple of seconds ago, the joint is an absolute must try! Just between you guys and Jeff Eats, Latitudes to my way of thinking “is” Florida!- hopefully that makes sense to you!

Latitudes is open 7 days a week 7am-10pm.

By the way, the Holiday Inn mentioned in Jeff Eats’ 9/15/09 story- is now called the Delray Sands Resort!

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

Trust Jeff Eats on this one- you can thank me later!

***** Latitudes Restaurant, 2809 South Ocean Boulevard, Highland Beach, Florida 33487 (561) 278-2008.

I am now going to tell you about an absolutely terrific “American-Style” joint that very few people know about…that is, unless you are a “real local.”

Now don’t get nervous, but I want you to definitely try—Latitudes Restaurant which is located in the Holiday Inn at Highland Beach. This casual (your shorts/tee shirt ensemble will work well here) restaurant is located right on the Atlantic Ocean Beach and has both indoor and outdoor seating. Like I said, it is real casual…but it is a great looking joint and the water-view is amazing.

Latitudes does breakfast-lunch-dinner. Just so you know, this isn’t some-junky overpriced “in-house” hotel restaurant. I have eaten numerous lunches and dinners and I rate Latitudes right up there with some of the best casual-American Style joints in South Florida.

Latitudes’ lunch-dinner menu is loaded with moderately priced appetizers, salads, sandwiches, burgers, meat-seafood-chicken entrees. I am telling you, that its… French onion soup, sauteed yellowtail snapper, shrimp scampi, broiled pork chops, bacon cheeseburger, grilled chicken caesar salad, crab-lobster cakes are top-notch.

This one is an absolute must try…Don’t let the “in” the Holiday Inn address scare you off.

Latitudes is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner 7 days a week.

Everyone’s favorite creepy clan The Addams Family hits the stage with a macabre musical that’s so hilarious it’s scary. Gather around the family mansion and watch Morticia and Gomez wrestle with a nightmarish turn of events. Their daughter, the ever-precocious Wednesday, has done the scariest thing imaginable — she’s fallen in love with an average, run-of-the-mill boy. What’s worse, she wants her freaky family to pretend to be “normal” for one night to impress her new boyfriend’s parents. Watch what happens when Pugsley, Grandmama, Uncle Fester and Lurch put their own horrific spin on hospitality. Inspired by Charles Addams’ iconic comic strip and featuring a script written by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice (Jersey Boys), this family-friendly production of the Tony-nominated musical lurks into the Boca Black Box.
