Parkland may feel suburban and serene, but its dining scene is a kaleidoscope of South Florida flavor—mixing tropical, international, and New American cuisine in warm, family-centric settings.
Bluefin Sushi & Thai
An area mainstay, Bluefin is where East and Southeast Asia meet the Florida sun: tuna towers, dragon rolls, pad Thai, spicy curry bowls, and tempura-fried bananas for dessert.
The vibrant, casual space is ideal for family dinners, teens out after practice, and festive birthdays, while the creative house rolls are beloved throughout Broward County.
Marlee’s Cupcakery & Creamery
For sweets, Marlee’s is paradise—hand-piped cupcakes in flavors from guava to red velvet, perfectly crafted ice cream sandwiches, and cold brew floats.
Bright, airy, and lined with cheerful staff and rainbow sprinkles, Marlee’s is a magnet for celebrations and post-school treats.
Déjà Blue
A Mediterranean oasis, Déjà Blue offers kabobs, falafel, fresh-caught grouper, brick-oven pizzas, and classic Moroccan tagines in a palm-fringed setting.
The open-air patio, moody bar, and diverse crowd make for lively dinners; don’t skip the house hummus and baklava.
The Cook & The Cork
If there’s a “foodie temple” in Parkland, it’s this chef-driven, creative spot: globally-inspired tapas, Korean short rib, local snapper with mango salsa, and standout craft cocktails.
The wine list is vast, tastings are frequent, and the vibe is intimate but welcoming.
Chefs chat with tables, and service is as friendly as it is polished.
Parkland Bagels
The corner bagel shop that never sleeps, Parkland Bagels draws everyone for brisket on bialys, fresh lox, crispy baklava, and “hangover-cure” breakfast wraps.
Old friends keep their own mugs behind the counter, and the line is longest on Sunday mornings. True New York flavor in South Florida sunshine.
