Why Duffy's Sports Grill hasn't reopened
It's been almost a month since Gov. Ron DeSantis allowed restaurants to partially reopen, but Duffy's Sports Grill is waiting.

Hopefully they've dropped the ribs from their new menu. Completely flavorless except for the sauce.![]()

The Ale House in the Gables closed down. We need sports.
Highest grossing stores are Grove, Hialeah, North Miami (since they added the beautiful patio) and Kendall.
My Godfather is the C.O.O. and my pops is the Head of Security, so I'm full of useless Flanny facts.
Sawgrass store is gonna be a smash hit.
A Flannys fact that I don't know?!There's one in Stuart and not another one until you get to West Palm. I'm sure there's a story about how Stuart came to exist.
A what?How long have you been on a health eating binge?
As a business owner myself, I marvel at how well their people are trained and repeat the company line verbatim, every time. Go to any one of their places and every employee does the same exact speech about drink deals, dinner specials and that dessert ****tails, all off whic are big money makers for them.
Well run organization.
I will say that about Flannys...you don't meet too many people that are there but absolutely hate their gig. Everyone is mad friendly and the vibe is always good.
Big Daddy's from the late 70s through the 80s... was the place to go in Miami....Bar None....That's all COO Augie Bucci's business model. He's a stickler about that and he's the main one that randomly pops into the stores. All the employees I've talked to have met him at some point.
Most people don't know this but Flanigans was originally Big Daddy's...a famous nightclub chain. They had over 32 clubs across the United States and South America.
Joe Flanigan (Big Daddy) hired Augie Bucci and my father ("Johnny Grapevine") to provide the bands/entertainment. When disco hit and live music went to the wayside, their nightclubs started to take a hit. One of the brothers opened up a restaurant in Pompano Beach (the original Flanigans) and to their surprise it was a hit. That's when Joe Flanigan and Augie Bucci decided to remold their Big Daddy/Flanigans brand into a restaurant chain. And here we are.
YEah I know, cool story bro.
Big Daddy's from the late 70s through the 80s... was the place to go in Miami....Bar None....
@Coach Macho ....Look Man...Big Daddy's was off the Hook....I lived in Miami from 83-86....and spent alot of time in Miami before Culinary School in 79.....When I talk Fine *** Women....Im talking Fine *** Women....That's what I hear, bro.
My pops tells me all the stories. He says the joint was smokin'.
My pops was in the music biz and had the Big Daddy's contract. He was in charge of putting bands in every single one of their nightclubs nation-wide.
Did they have a joint by (or at) the airport? He would always mention that.
Yup...not far from Leujune and DoralThat's what I hear, bro.

Duffys sucks, Flannies rules.Hopefully they've dropped the ribs from their new menu. Completely flavorless except for the sauce.
Yeah later became mystiques.( i think) but on the corner of 163rd and Biscayne (Dean's Gold currently) was Papa Grande. My older sister and cousins loved that place. Salsa and meringue.That's what I hear, bro.

Unfortunately, I'm infested with Duffy's and there's no Flanigans nearby. I do agree with you though.Duffys sucks, Flannies rules.
