Louie Bossi's Ristorante, Bar & Pizzeria is a high-energy Italian eatery located on the famed Las Olas Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale. We all know restaurants where the linguine or the spaghetti is made in-house. But at Louie Bossi's, they're making 14 different shapes of pasta. They're making their own bread and pizza dough. This is the new "hip" place right now from the owners of Rocco's Taco and Big City Tavern.

Another oldie, but goodie, Lester's has been around since the '60's and it's the epitome of diner chic -- if such a thing exists -- and most of its servers have been around since the placed opened up. Another 'round-the-clock place, the spot is jam-packed on weekends around 4 a.m. and again for daylight creature's normal breakfast time of nine in the morning. From self-proclaimed fluffy omelets, available in vegetarian, Spanish, western, and plain old American cheese among others to Belgian waffles and homemade pastries, its worth the late-night or morning lines. Don't worry, they provide a bench in the expectation of a lengthy wait.

Apothecary 330 is now serving up craft cocktails (and plenty of whiskey) right next door to the newly opened Pizzacraft. But don’t bother looking for a clearly marked entrance. It doesn’t exist. Guests can enter through a side door located within the pizzeria...“It’s on purpose. Think: Speakeasy,”
