    Country fried steak
    Julian M.

    A classic style cafe spot. Comforting, simple, and delicious. If you're tired of the overpriced modern cafes that have taken over and you just want a cozy spot with comfort food, this is it. The service and food were good but let me just say... as someone who's not a big pancake person, I'm going back just for those pancakes. They are fluffy and moist and I don't know how they're made but they just taste so good. Mind you, the size.... I could barely get past one of them which means I get to take some home too. And all for such a great price.

    2x2 with French toast

    We have been wanting to try out Ally's the last few weeks and finally got the chance today. The diner was warm and staff was inviting with excellent food and prices. Our favorite was the French toast and the omelette. We will be back and add this one to our regular list of brunch spots.

    Great little hole in the wall. The food is homemade and the portions are large. The wait staff was friendly and super efficient. My waitress kept checking on me to see if everything was as ok or if I wanted more coffee. Thought the pricing was very reasonable. They have a $.50 up charge per egg during the bird flu shortage. There is also a 3% svc charge for credit card payments. Overall, the place is cute with a super large menu. They even have early bird breakfast specials before 10:00am as well as daily specials. Lots of homemade choices. 2 thumbs up!

    Homemade cornbeef hash, and eggs
    Chanel F.

    I was in the area and decided to stop in here. It's a small place but plenty of seating and everyone I came in contact with was really nice. I decided to get takeout which I had ordered over the phone. I got the homemade corn beef hash, and eggs that came with grits and I opted for English muffin. When I tell you that homemade corn beef hash was amazing, I came back the next day for some more. I love the fact that I can tell that they seem to use cracked eggs and not anything from a box. I definitely see myself coming back here.

    The best comfort food that I've ever tasted! My dear friend put me on to this gem. Food and service were top tier. I can't wait until the weekend to visit again. Inside was very homey with a dated feel. I felt like I was in my grandmothers dining room. We were seated within a minute even though inside was packed. Our waitress came over to take over drink orders and have us a few minutes to go over the menu. I knew exactly what I wanted- that fried steak was calling my name. You have the options of choosing one of 3 sides and how you'd like your eggs cooked . I chose the potatoes. The corned beef hash was so delicious. The staff was in sync as all our dishes came out really fast.

    CHOCOLATE CHIP PANCAKE
    Daren R.

    MONSTER PANCAKES... For years people kept telling me to check out this old southern charm breakfast and lunch restaurant to eat the giant pancakes located in Davie, FL. Today, I finally got the urge to take a peek at this legendary pancake. As soon as I stepped inside, a calm aura surrounded my body. This pleasant soft spoken woman named Cindy approached and told me to sit anywhere. I took temporary refuge in a relaxing booth and excitedly pondered through the simple two page menu searching for today's highly anticipated blissful offering. I inquired to Cindy about the "Anna's Choice" single giant pancake $4.25. She explained the several mouth watering topping options and decided on chocolate chip at an additional $1.75. I thought, how was this deal even possible? Within ten minutes, a massive ultra fluffy chocolate infused pancake was on my table begging for immediate consumption. I heavily poured maple syrup onto the center and watched as it slowly dripped over the edge. Without further adieu, I took a generous bite, very impressed by the hidden chocolate chips buried inside instead of the all too common weak top sprinkle. I took a second bite, then another, again and again until this mammoth pancake disappeared into the depths of my now happy belly - gym today for sure. They do offer daily specials from 7am - 2pm like Red Velvet French Toast and Biscuits & Gravy. They are weirdly closed on Wednesdays. The bathroom was very clean.

    Suck it up! Salsa.  It has good taste and a nice amount of heat.
    Gary F.

    As many times as I have been here in the past years, I was surprised to see that I had not written a review. As far as my previous experiences, they have always been good. Today was no exception. Good food and good service. There's not much to talk about today. My wife had Leo. She said it was a little heavy on the onions, but otherwise, it was very good. I had something easy. A grilled cheese with ham on wheat bread, with a side of onion rings. It was good. I also got some of their "suck it up salsa." It was great. It was really hot, but it still tasted really good. It went well with the onion rings. I really loved their salsa. I really need to eat here more often.

    Caprese Benedict with side of Home Fries & Grits
    Naomi S.

    I had the BEST breakfast today (9/23)! I was trying to find someplace different than where we normally go and as I was looking at their website, saw that they had Sticky Toffee Pudding Pancakes! Guess where we were going, lol. There were 3 parties ahead of us when we arrived but the wait wasn't bad. They won't seat you if your party is not complete. Our waitress was very nice. Food came out pretty quick and was steaming HOT and fresh! You can see the steam coming out of the coffee cup even after I added some creamer to it. The Sticky Toffee Pudding Pancakes were DELICIOUS ! I'm so bummed because I found out that they only have them about every 6 months. My husband's Caprese Benedict was cooked perfectly as per his request. The only thing he thought was odd was that you had hot eggs but cold cheese. It obviously didn't bother him that much because he cleared his plate. Parking isn't a problem as it's in the Shenandoah Plaza off of SR84, just west of Flamingo. We'll have to keep this place in our breakfast rotation.

    Home made corned beef hash
    Jeff D.

    We've been coming here for many years because every thing we've ever ordered has been great. Their matzo ball soup is fantastic and we've brought it home countless times when someone was under the weather. Today was breakfast. They make their own corned beef hash and it's fantastic. Over medium eggs are always perfect. Grits are always identically perfect and the staff is just lovely and efficient.

    The theme here is: a secret almost too good to keep I have to give them their yearly review because quite actually one of Broward's (yes, all of Broward) best kept breakfast/brunch secret. The food and the specials are almost always 10/10! The classic items definitely have that unique Ally's touch as well. We are frequent customers and while we don't dine in always, service is quick, friendly, and attentive. The inside is a little small but almost always packed and bustling with movement. They have high chairs to accommodate little ones and are super family friendly.

    Naked Farmer is in Sunrise and offers some fresh food for dine in or on the go…read more The first time I had Naked Farmer was in Tampa and was so excited when I learned that they had a location in South FL to try. We came after a busy morning at the beach and I was craving something fresh. After a quick search on Yelp, I found Naked Farmer and was reminded that we were super close to it. It's fairly close to Sawgrass Mills mall and is in a plaza with a good amount of parking. Although the outside seems small, the space inside is pretty long and has a good amount of seating. The servining is "chipotle-style" where you order your food and customize it how you want it and pay at the register at the end. I shared a bowl with my partner and we got half rice and half greens, some toppings, and the chicken thigh. This was a good amount for us to share and it was delicious! We also tried their date cake and my partner was a huge fan of it. I loved how clean the inside was and how nice all the staff was. They had water cups for self service and it was cold even without ice, which I loved! When you're done with your food, you put them away in a cabinet which is constantly cleaned out by staff which helped give the space a clean aesthetic. Very thought through and intentional on their behalf. Loved Naked Farmer and would definitely get again if I'm in the area or craving something fresh!

And the place is brightly lit and seems to be really clean. On this day, I decided to try the roasted chicken. I believe it was supposed to have some type of rosemary on it. I'm not sure what's going on these days but it seems like most places are cooking chicken when it's still frozen. It just had that cooked from frozen texture to it. It was tough and bland. I tried the macaroni and cheese, which I did like and the carrots, which I also did like, both solid sides something I would get again. I was able to get the kale Caesar with my plate, which I thought was excellent. It had the right amount of dressing on it. I do plan on returning to try the salmon. Hopefully I have a better experience with that.

Normally when we visit, it's a full house -- but shortly after being seated, we started to understand why. We noticed the menu had changed, so I'm not sure if they brought in a new chef. We ordered the croquettes (which have always been our favorite), a ribeye steak, and a picanha bowl. The croquettes came out room temperature, which was disappointing right from the start. The ribeye, ordered medium, was pink but extremely dry -- it honestly seemed like it may have been pre-cooked and then reheated. To make matters worse, the steak is served already cut, which doesn't allow it any time to rest and retain its juices. The picanha bowl was also dry and tough to chew. It's a shame when establishments that were once consistently very good go through changes like this. Unfortunately, for the prices they charge, the quality just wasn't there this time. I won't be returning.

It also took forever to get our check to pay. In fact, she didn't even come with it until my husband left with the kids. The food was okay. The wings had good flavor, but the sauce was very greasy, almost watery. My daughter's chicken tenders had too much breading and were very hard. My son's grilled cheese was fine. Best part of the meal was the curly fries. Lastly, the prices were high for bar food. A kids meal cost more than $10 and did not include a drink. 15 wings cost $22. Oh, and they use plastic silverware, which is fine but these were super flimsy. My husband broke a fork eating the curly fries. My daughter broke a fork eating her chicken tenders. I could barely cut her chicken using the knife.
