The Food Republic

Great atmosphere with a fun husband and wife owner running the bar and kitchen. The 4 of us sat at the bar and ordered drinks and the pork belly to start. Great pork belly! For mains we got the pork chop, Asian noodle bowl, steak sandwich and the Korean chicken sandwich, and everyone was happy with their choices. My wife is gluten and dairy free and the chef made sure she had options to choose from. My uncle requested non alcoholic beer, which they didn’t have but the owner said he could make it happen, and within 5 minutes, he was pouring him a cold N/A Heineken 😂 Very much recommend folks in Ft.Lauderdale to check out this new spot!

Absolutely loved our dinner here tonight! This newer restaurant is a great addition to the neighborhood! The word is out as it got busy as we were leaving at 6:45pm it was almost full! Alonso and his wife, the chef, are veterans of the restaurant business and it showed. Every bite was fantastic and so many dishes to choose from. I eat gluten free and they go out of their way to accommodate GF eaters. The restaurant has a great laid back vibe and the food is a home run! We will be back as it’s very evident that they care about the customers.
