Great Happy Hour prices, great service and food! A true neighborhood atmosphere! The Black Beans and rice is GLP-1 friendly and delicious! A huge portion for a side!
Everything was excellent. Service was great. Restaurant was very clean, and had nice decor. They had several things on the menu I would want to try. Garlic parm green beans were amazing. Wahoo grilled sandwich was fantastic. Will come back.
Local eatery with abundant seating indoors and out. There's also a long bar that accommodates seating inside and out, where many congregate after work or for Sunday brunch. When dining indoors, contending with the music and chattering from surrounding tables could present an issue, but other than that, inside is a good option. Service is congenial and efficient. As far as the menu, it offers a variety of American cuisine including sandwiches, burgers, seafood, pizza, shareable plates and more. The Foundry salads are exceptionally delicious, especially at Sunday brunch.
Love the foundry the food the service never disappointed I always get the same entree the short ribs although the greens beans was very bland and need some kind of salt I end up asking my bartender Dixon to give me double mashed potatoes.
Nice, local bar with a few tv's to watch sports. We came here since we can walk on over and it was like 50 degrees. They have some outdoor seating with heaters, but it was still too cold for us. Up first, $16 Fire Roasted Wings. I got them garlic parmesan style. I liked the wings, not the best ever, but certainly well above average. You get 8 wings. I had a $22 French Dip as my main course. It was fine, pretty average. I tried my Mom's $18 Margherita Pizza. It was also just fine. Good casual spot for a cheap dinner.
The service was great. The food came fast to my surprise. It's a big place. Great for office gatherings if you needed a great location. Outside seating and the staff were attentive. We had a great time and enjoyed our food. It was a nice walk from my place and I was able to walk away those calories. Overall it was a great experience and I recommend to anyone in the area.
The Foundry never disappoints. I had the sushi stack, and it was absolutely delicious -- fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Every bite was perfectly balanced and clearly made with high-quality ingredients. The atmosphere is warm and stylish, making it a great spot for a relaxed night out or a special dinner. The service was attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. Overall, great food, great ambiance, and a place I'm always happy to come back to.
Updating my 1st review. Came for brunch with my ladies group. Rebecca greeted me & showed me to the area with our lovely tables. We were a group of 25. Service was excellent. Was told they are working on a new menu. I was extremely impressed with my breakfast bowl & I saw a lot of the other food coming out. Lobster Benedict was a special & the lady that ordered it, said it was delicious. Rebecca also helped some of my ladies with the parking app. As to pay by phone! This is going to be a regular rotation for brunch with my group!!! It was so much fun!!! Thank you Frank & staff!!!
Saw this amazing art sculpture from the road and decided to check it out. Here is some information regarding it - The owner of The Foundry Grieco had known of Furnari's work for 10 years, and has been wanting a "Lunch" sculpture since day one of The Foundry. Now, Furnari has brought The Foundry a massive sculpture of a famous black-and-white photograph taken on Sept. 20, 1932. The image shows 11 ironworkers perched high above the bustling streets of New York City having a lunch break atop a steel beam on the 69th floor of the Rockefeller Center. The men sit casually, legs dangling into the void. Above them, the skeletal frame of the skyscraper rises, a testament to human ambition and ingenuity. Furnari is known for his sculptures that depict regular, hard-working people throughout history. Transporting his "Lunch" sculpture, he drove a truck 1,200 miles from New York to Pompano Beach. "It weighs a couple thousand pounds, no problem," said Furnari. "Passion and love is what really drove it, and it's currently on top of a truck because it shows that we're all free to move. I also did this because Frank (Grieco) is the man."
Great spot for brunch, lunch, or dinner. Great choice of libations, and menu items! Their pizzas are tasty, and their side salad was really good. On my recent visit, my friend and I sat at the outside portion of the bar. It was a lively area, and we enjoyed watching the football game. The bartenders were friendly and attentive.
Went here on a date. What a GREAT SPOT. We sat outdoors in a quiet corner which was perfect for the occasion. Our waiter was incredibly attentive. And the owner came by to ask how everything was which means a lot. My meal was the eggplant meatballs (yes I know it's an app). I had no idea what to expect, but they were excellent!
Some friends and I were looking for a good lunch spot in the area and this place came to mind as I've heard some good things about it, so we decided to give it a try this past Sunday. The restaurant is in a great location, very clean and just a really good vibe. When we sat and started looking over the menu we were a little confused as when we were driving we checked out the website for the menu, but things were not the same once getting there. We asked the staff if there was another menu and they told us they couldn't give it to us until 3pm and unfortunately what we wanted to order wasn't actually available at the time we went, but that was never specified on the website. Nonetheless, we ordered our food, our wing appetizer came out, but we still hadn't received any silverware or napkins since we were seated so we had to ask for that. Wings were very good. When our main dishes came out everything looked very good. Once we started to eat, there was an agreeance that the brussel sprouts were lacking flavor aside from the glaze, but were very bland. The pesto chicken sandwich was also very underwhelming. I think with the confusion of the menu and the food, I was a little let down. I'm not sure if this was just an issue of getting the wrong things, but I would give this place another shot, maybe at a different time of day. This time it just didn't do it for me.
We were looking at spots for a late lunch / early dinner after catching a musical nearby and so glad this is where we ended up! Industrial / steel foundry decor works well without being cartoonish or becoming the center of attention. Friendly and helpful staff were only too happy to take care of special orders. extra plates, and whatever else we needed. Cocktails were tasty, strong, and well priced. Spinach Dip Appetizer was yummy and came with freshly cooked pita that was somehow simultaneously puffy, crispy, and chewy. So good. Our party had a goat cheese salad, crispy mahi sandwich, and the sushi stack, and each of us was super pleased with our choices. No one had room for dessert so we left, full and happy. Be warned, the outdoors is a smoking section, and they allow cigars, so if you are sitting anywhere near the entrance, you will smell smoke!

The Foundry in Pompano is such a cute spot! We had a great time, and our waiter was the absolute best and so accommodating and patient, even with some... let's just say high-maintenance guests in our group. The food was great, and the mimosas were amazing! I especially loved the fruit juice flight. I'm personally not a fan of orange juice, so having different juice options was such a fun touch. Great atmosphere, great food, and a fun place for larger parties. Definitely a spot I'd come back to and I'll be recommending it to others! read more

I've been here a couple times before. People always rave about it but I always have an average experience. I came here for dinner on Mother's Day Sunday and the place was pretty sparse. Despite it being super dead, our server (who my mom pointed out has worked here for forever) was acting like he had 50 tables. It took forever to get him to come over and order anything from him, he was a mess. Other than the terrible service, the food was pretty good. Nothing to run home about but it wasn't bad. Everything was hot and came out relatively quickly and was made correctly. There was some sand in my clams, but I feel like that happens often when eating shellfish so I won't hold it against them. The seats are also super comfy and I like how they have 2 bars and both indoor and outdoor seating. read more

This restaurant is located in a plaza with paid parking via the Pay by Phone app. We sat outside on a busy Saturday night for dinner. Be warned it is located right next to a cigar bar so you have to be okay with smelling cigars if you choose to sit outside! The hostess was nice enough to give us this heads up as well. We started with a Grapefruit Basil Collins (too sweet for my taste) and a Hold My Beer lager. The lager was somewhat flat and odd-enough tasting to return. Went with an old fashioned instead of the beer which was also not great. We split a warm goat cheese salad as an appetizer. This salad was delicious! And the server was thoughtful enough to bring us the salad already split amongst plates knowing we were sharing it. For entrees we ordered the Foundry Burger with fries and the Brasied Short Ribs with polenta and green beans. Both of these meals were good. The polenta was my favorite part! Overall, a nice spot with good service and good food but not-so-great drinks. read more

Our group's original destination was Houston's; but we were turned away. Fortunately, The Foundry was right across the street and accommodated us. I ordered a strawberry mojito that was presented nicely and packed a punch. The Bourbon BBQ Burger was very good as well. I requested medium well; but well-done (temperature it was served) is actually my usual. I took home half the large burger and fries. Others in the group enjoyed Margherita pizzas, Blackened Mahi Sandwich, steak sandwich, multiple glasses of Reisling wine and soft drinks. The hostess promptly greeted and escorted me to the table where my group was seated. Wait service was adequate, non-rushed, MIA at times, but that actually allowed time to catch up with acquaintances I'd not seen in many years. Another waiter happily served as photographer for our group. The prices are appropriate for the quality and quantity of the meal and service received. Another plus was an automatic gratuity based on group size was not assessed. I will definitely return to try other menu items, including dessert. I parked in a metered spot near the main entrance. Rest of my group parked north of the restaurant. read more

Excellent happy hour. They have $7 wine, shots and mojitos. We particularly enjoyed their cucumber mojitos and house Cabernet. I am very picky about my wines and I can tell you their wine passed the test. We sat at the bar for fast service. Our food took maybe 10 minutes to come out. Wings: 4/5 Fries: 2.5/5 (very thin and crunchy) Cucumber mojito: 5/5 Burger Sliders: 1.5/5 Overall, great experience. Great spot to eat at. Looking forward to trying more things on their menu. read more

A lovely brunch and fun atmosphere. Our sever was so nice and attentive even when he was slammed busy. I enjoyed the French toast. The buns were a little stale for my liking. Bottomless mimosas and some ice cold lemon drop shots after were a nice way to finish off the meal. I enjoyed the decor here and def can't wait to come back. read more

Fantastic large outside patio with a long bar that peers into the restaurant where there are colorful wall murals and replica photos of the iconic Chrysler Building. The hostess, Nancy, should get a raise and the owners should be pleased with her outgoing personality - I literally thought at first that she was a manager. She took me on a tour of the restaurant and provided information on the incredible decor. We sat at the patio bar and met with the bartender, Todd, who was not enthusiastic but provided quick service and explained the happy hour options. We ordered the Margherita Flatbread $8 (very good) and craft beer $6. Great conversation with other patrons. The bathroom was super clean with glossy wall tiles and ceramic tile flooring. read more

After sightseeing in Pompano Beach all day, we decided to find a place to have an early dinner. As we are driving, we see this very wild group of men sitting on top of a restaurant roof! We are now intrigued! We pull in and see that it's a restaurant. And those men are statues of foundry workers from the early 1800's. How cool! Inside the place is huge! Lots of seating available indoors and out. It was packed! We didn't have to wait long and we were seated. Our server was friendly and attentive. I ordered the Foundry burger and my daughter got the Sliders. Both meal were very good. We didn't stay long because we had to get home but it was fun there and we would definitely go back! Parking was available in front and to the side of the Foundry. read more
First time trying out the Foundry and we were impressed! Our server Nixon provided great friendly service and recommended a couple of burgers that were perfectly cooked and full of flavor (Foundry burger recommended). Short rib flat rib to start was nothing special with a small portion but it was happy hour pricing so we enjoyed it nonetheless! For meals, recommend their prosciutto pizza. Crust was softer than I was used to, but it tasted SO good. Lastly, highly recommend the hibiscus mule to drink. Notes of ginger beer with the sweet hibiscus flavor was perfect and I'd order it every time. read more
I visited The Foundry with a group of 12+ people on a Friday (with existing reservation), and we were treated so well. Our server was very attentive even with serving such a large group. The server helped to guide us through the menu and made the specials of the day very appealing. He encouraged us to also take advantage of the happy hour menu, which had great options for both small bites and drinks. I had the chance to try the surf and turf, cooked beautifully, the steak sandwich that was seasoned so well, and the beef bolognese, which was my absolute favorite and even had some veal in it. read more

Thank you Arlet!
This restaurant and bar is my type of place. The Chrysler building NYC decor added to the atmosphere and was perfect on a cool night on their patio. Happy hour offered many choices of apps, beers and cocktails. I had a mojito which was too sweet for my liking but beautiful presentation. Easily switched it out for a cold beer. The bartender needs to up his game on personality, but the hostess Nancy was a rock star. Stayed here for a couple hours met others and had fun. read more

Wow where do I start! I ordered a pick up meal two hamburgers. I get home there are no hamburger patties on the hamburgers. I called they say to come back and pick it up. And shocking shocking shocking they tried to give me two hamburger patties to go on the stale buns by now soggy stale buns and they wanted me to eat cold stale french fries and asparagus on my takeout order. This is absolutely insane I have never had any experience quite like this I will never go here ever again and I will tell everybody about my experience absolutely the worst I've ever had in Pompano Beach Friday afternoon Friday evening traffic is terrible. read more

So I stated I will try a new restaurant out in my neighborhood as I been here for almost 4 years. Let's say my family and I enjoyed the food. The service was great and felt good outside to eat and mingle with my husband and kids. The service was not the best but wasn't bad either. The blackened mahi was too good and I didn't get a picture or the spinach and artichoke dip but my family loved it. We will come again for brunch because I want those sticky buns lol. read more
It was early Friday night and game night so the bar was loud and crowded. We were seated immediately in a booth in a quieter area. It was happy hour and we were told of the bar bite menu available until 7pm which looked good. Maybe next time. Our server appeared quickly and took our order from the dinner menu. We ordered the Greek Salad, Marghita Pizza and Ahi Tuna Poke Bowl. We really enjoyed our meals and will come back for the salad and pizza along with some items from the bar bites menu. Prices were fair and service was very good. There is paid parking in the lot, but we found 2 hour free parking on the street! read more
Stopped by on a Friday evening. Was a nice day out so pretty much every spot outside was taken and inside was empty. We were able to get a table pretty quickly. Our server was on point and friendly. She had lots of tables too !! Food was ok, just basic. Nothing to crave. Drinks were on par. Nothing stood out besides the actually service. Wouldn't go out of my way to go here. read more

Are dogs allowed outside?
I'm pretty sure as with most south Florida establishments
Would this be a good place for a dinner party, celebrating a 25th birthday? We want fancy and yummy, but fun.?
My experience wasn't the best. I wouldn't see it as a place that was fancy or fun. My husband and I were basically ignored. I would probably go to the promenade in Coconut Creek or possibly Mizner Park in Boca.
