Tears Nole Tears (“Offcial”)

Dammmmnnn...

I think I only went to Bobby Rubino's once, though I liked it. If I recall, did they only have 1 or 2 locations, and they closed down earlier.

In my life, I'm sure I went to Tony Roma's more. There was one by my parents' house in Orlando for a while, in addition to the locations in Miami.

Can't forget Shorty's either. As a poor student, it was harder to do the "sit-down restaurants" for ribs, and easier to get some Shorty's.
I used to go to the Bobby Rubino's up in Margate back in the 80s and 90s. The chicken wings were fire!

I remember the rumors back in the day that the place was a front for organized crime. Lots of shady people managing the place.

Restaurants that I miss from S Florida, having moved to Texas in 1998 and having read that they are gone:

1. Char Hut
2. Taco Viva
3. Mister Donuts (great one in Deerfield Beach that my grandfather used to take me to)

One place still around that I got to go to visiting my father in 2021 is Zucharellis; that place had THE best pizza.
Bro, I’m pretty sure Taco Viva was gone before 1998. Maybe the one in the Broward Mall food court was still open.

Char Hut still exists but they’re down to only one location now in Davie.

There used to be a Mister Donut off of Coral Way and 87th Ave that closed in the late 80’s when Dunkin Donuts flooded the market. No one ever remembers it. Old school donut shop with old guys reading the paper and smoking cigarettes sitting right at the counter.

When I was little, my grandfather used to take my sister and I to the Mister Donut that was located on Hillsborough Blvd near The Cove. We would have breakfast there and then go to the library; he would frequently get a dozen donuts and bring them to the library workers.

Char Hut is still open. I go to the one on 595 whenever I'm up in Broward.
