Galuppi's - Pompano Beach

Overall, it's a fantastic spot to relax, even if you're not a golfer at the nearby golf course. The outdoor bar is lovely, and the bartenders are friendly and attentive.

I attended the advertised romantic Valentine's Dinner, and it turned out to be a complete disappointment. My first indication that something was off was when, after making the reservation, I noticed...

I attended a special Motown event at the restaurant. They charged a $65 reservation fee, which I paid online with a credit card. It's worth noting that drinks and gratuities were not included in that fee...

Now, about the buffet: it included a wonderful selection of salads, meats, fish, vegetables, and a variety of well-prepared desserts. Additionally, you could order omelets, waffles, and bagels made to your liking right from the kitchen. The servers were fantastic, bringing us whatever we wanted in a friendly and courteous manner. Mimosas and other drinks were also included. We all had a great time, feeling comfortable as we enjoyed our food and conversation. I highly recommend this place!

For an appetizer, we chose the platter with three dips: pico de gallo, spinach dip, and hummus, served with black and white tortilla chips. The pico de gallo was delicious, but the spinach dip was just average, and the hummus was disappointing—very grainy and had a texture reminiscent of cottage cheese. The restaurant itself was nice, but there was an odd atmosphere; it felt like the staff was running around as if they were overwhelmed, even though the place was empty. After having a mediocre appetizer, we ultimately decided to head somewhere else for dinner.
