La Baguette of Hollywood

Our final and the only disappointing meal we had on the Hollywood Beach. We stopped in for a quick meal before leaving. What a mistake. As we were there right as the breakfast to lunch transition was taking place, we were advised either option was available. My wife opted for breakfast and I Wanted lunch. The fact that hardly anything on either menu seemed to jibe with the restaurant’s name was the first sign of trouble. I decided on fish & chips after the hostess assured us it would be no problem getting it quickly. She apparently failed to factor in the fact that we had a WAITer instead of a waiter. Despite being alerted to the fact we needed quick service and us being about the only customers there at the time, he paid nearly no attention to us or anyone else. Then there was the food itself. The breakfast order came with what we’re pretty sure were frozen hash browns. Despite being literally yards from the ocean, the fish & chips consisted of a deep fried piece of packaged fish and packaged fries. The kicker was a bill that seemed way out of line with what we’d ordered. Wanting to make sure we were not rewarding the terrible service with a built in tip, we looked it over and found that the only thing we’d ordered that was’t disappointing was more $ than we would have paid for it IF the price hsd been on the menu… an $ 8 glass of grapefruit juice.

Nice ambiance and very friendly owners… very recommended!!! Try the steak sandwich with Latin American meat in a french baguette. Insuperable! (ask for the guasacaca sauce!)

Tasty food made with fresh ingredients sold at a good price. How come such few places figure this out? — Well this place does. The pulled pork sandwich I think is the best pulled pork sandwich I have ever had.
By the way– its one of the booths at the Yellow Green market on Taft.
