If you're an Italian food purist craving straight-up, no-nonsense, flavor-packed Italian comfort food, there's no better place to dine than Mannino's Italian Restaurant and Pizzeria, a family-owned Tamarac staple serving generous portions of pasta, crispy pizza, and garlic bread you'll be thinking about for days.

A local favorite for over two decades, Mannino's has built a reputation on old-school recipes, hearty portions, and no shortcuts in the kitchen, whether bubbling-hot lasagna, a perfectly folded New York-style slice, or a plate of seafood-stuffed pasta dripping in homemade sauce.

At Mannino's, every dish feels like a Sunday dinner at Nonna's house!

And yes, before you even ask, they have all the Italian must-haves — rich baked pasta, golden-fried eggplant parm, garlicky shrimp scampi, and every other dish that made you fall head over heels for Italian food in the first place, including a few surprises that keep you coming back.

Hallyu Korean BBQ & Bar

6800 N University Dr, Tamarac, FL 33321

✅ Takeout - ✅ Dine-in - ✅ Delivery

Most of the time, you dine out to have someone else cook for you — but not in Hallyu Korean BBQ & Bar!

This time, though, there'll be no complaints whatsoever!

Here, the grill is yours, the meats are marinated to perfection, and the only rule is to come hungry.

Welcome to Hallyu Korean BBQ & Bar, an all-you-can-eat Korean BBQ hotspot that has turned Tamarac into a sizzling, smoky, flavor-packed paradise where premium meats, endless side dishes, and a good soju buzz make for the ultimate night out.

The menu? A carnivore's dream. 

We're talking thinly sliced beef brisket, marinated short ribs, spicy pork belly, and juicy bulgogi that all hit the flames with a satisfying sizzle as your banchan (those magical Korean side dishes) keep your chopsticks busy between bites. 

Not in the mood to cook? Go for their kimchi stew, crispy seafood pancake, or Korean fried chicken — they're equally satisfying without the additional effort!

Between the interactive dining, melt-in-your-mouth meats, and an atmosphere that turns dinner into an event, Hallyu Korean BBQ & Bar is a no-brainer.

Just be warned — once you start, stopping is a feat.

Savvy Sliders

2400 W Commercial Blvd, Tamarac, FL 33309

✅ Takeout - ✅ Dine-in - ✅ Delivery

A fast-food joint as one of Tamarac's top eats?

Clearly, you must be imagining things!

Well, you're not because Savvy Sliders isn't your average burger hub!

On the contrary, this go-big or go-home dining spot promises to turn your favorite sliders into mini masterpieces stacked with flavor, attitude, and just enough sauce to make you reach for extra napkins!

Here, you can get your sliders in a complete lineup instead of debating between crispy chicken, juicy Angus beef, or a Nashville hot kick.

And unlike some sliders that feel like a bite-sized disappointment, these bad boys are thick, loaded, and unapologetically extra!

Level up your order with crinkle-cut fries and a hand-spun custard shake, or mix it up by choosing from Savvy Slider's side selections, like mac and cheese bites, crispy onion rings, and waffle fries!

Portion control? Never heard of her. 

By the time you've polished off your last slider, you'll be side-eyeing the menu, contemplating a "round two." (Spoiler: it'll be hard to resist.)

And don't worry — denial is free, but you'll be paying for another order soon enough.
