And this is topped with beer caramelized onion and provolone cheese. This is a beef patty topped with a chorizo patty, so like a double burger, one patty was beef and the other one pork. The pork rinds were also good, but I am not a pork rinds aficionado, so even though they were good and didn’t taste burnt or like oil, I didn’t love them. They came topped with blue cheese crumbles, and I don’t think I dipped them in any sauce. Plus, the homemade BBQ sauce was very good. But I mean tender, not overcooked or dried in the least bit. For appetizers we had some BBQ chicken wings and some pork rinds, yes, we have no religious beliefs whatsoever, and I ordered the Cow & Pig Burger, because it looked sinful enough for me. If you read menus before coming to restaurants, this may prove useful here. The menu is not long, but the food here is elaborate and needs a description. Whaaaa!!! This place totally rocks!!! We showed up in a small group, at the last hour of service, were quickly intercepted at the door where we ordered our beers and were asked to take a seat. While I didn’t dine there, the atmosohere was so relaxed that I would like to return and dine in. The meal was well seasoned, cooked to perfection, and still by the time I reached my office 10 minutes later. The man that answered the phone was very courteous and once I arrived at the restaurant to pick up my order I was greeted by a friendly woman standing at the register.

I call in my order hoping that I can just grab and go. I opt for the Nancy Pants ( 5 oz Angus Burger served with Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato & House Fries). I love burgers! I read the reviews and for the majority of the part, they are beyond satisfatory. Anyway, I took to Unilocal hoping to find something that would be appealing to my tastebuds and behold! Initially, what caught my attention was the name of the establishment… M.E.A.T… Meat… I love meat. It’s not a view or romance place, but if your inner carnivore is craving a dalliance with deliciousness, this absolutely is your destination stop in the Keys.Īfter months of mainly eating pizza, I decided that somethign had to change… I don’t even like pizza like that, I just get it for the convenience because it’s less than a 3 minute walk from work. You order at the counter but the service is first rate. They have killer truffle fries and a great assortment of craft beers. Katz’s Deli in NYC likes to claim that they hold the world pastrami title, and they cook up tons on the lower East Side of Manhattan. They cure it like I do at home: Long brine and seasoning times, perfect smoke and of course A++ grade brisket. The burgers are amazing, but today I went for their house made pastrami, on special. Is a wonderful hidden gem tucked into one of the many strip malls that reach out to the sluggish traffic of Overseas Highway with promises of cheap sandals, shells, boat canvas, souvenirs and palm readings. This is the mothership of my favorite meatery in Boca, where it inhabits the bottom of an unlikely office building.
