Davie, Florida — a city where the sun-soaked sprawl of South Florida meets the slow sway of palm trees and the easy laughter of neighbors who know each other by name. Here, ranch-style homes nestle beside modern apartments, and the air is thick with the scent of barbecue, Caribbean spices, and the promise of something unexpected. Davie is a tapestry of cultures: students from nearby universities, families who’ve lived here for generations, and newcomers drawn by the warmth of the community and the wild, untamed beauty of the Everglades just beyond the city’s edge.
It’s a place where food isn’t just sustenance — it’s celebration, connection, and sometimes, pure spectacle. Themed restaurants thrive here, each one a stage for stories, laughter, and the kind of meals that linger in memory long after the plates are cleared. In Davie, dining out is an adventure, a chance to step into another world for an hour or two, surrounded by friends, family, or the friendly strangers who soon become both.
This is a city where a meal can transport you — to Italy, to the Caribbean, to the heart of a British pub or the wildest corners of your imagination. These five crazy themed restaurants capture the flavours, stories, and spirit of Davie — vibrant, surprising, and unforgettable.
Buca di Beppo Italian Restaurant, Davie
It’s the kind of place where laughter echoes off red-checkered tablecloths, where walls are lined with vintage photos and every meal feels like a family reunion. The Pope Table — a round table crowned with a bust of the pontiff — is the stuff of local legend, and the portions are as generous as the welcome. Start with the Chicken Parmigiana, then pass around Spaghetti with Meatballs, Mozzarella Garlic Bread, and the decadent Tiramisu. The atmosphere is boisterous and joyful — perfect for big families, college students celebrating milestones, and locals who treat Buca like their own Italian villa. It’s Davie’s communal table — loud, loving, and always full.
Off The Wall Social-Davie, Davie
Step inside and you’re greeted by neon lights, the thrum of arcade games, and the clang of axe-throwing lanes. It’s the kind of place where you can challenge your friends to laser tag, then refuel with Loaded Nachos, Handcrafted Pizzas, Buffalo Wings, and a towering Milkshake. The vibe is electric and playful — drawing families with energetic kids, teens on weekend adventures, and locals who come for the games but stay for the camaraderie. It’s Davie’s playground — bold, buzzing, and endlessly entertaining.
Kekoon Restaurant & Lounge, Davie
A swirl of Caribbean rhythms and contemporary style, Kekoon is where the night comes alive. It’s the kind of place where the DJ spins reggae and soca, where the Jerk Chicken is fiery, the Oxtail Stew rich, and the Plantain Chips crisp and golden. Don’t miss the Signature Cocktails — each one a little taste of the islands. The crowd is vibrant and diverse — young professionals, couples on date night, and locals who treat Kekoon like a second home. It’s Davie’s island escape — sultry, spirited, and full of flavor.
Black Jack’s Rum Bar & Grille, Davie
Step through the door and you’re in a pirate’s den — dark wood, nautical relics, and the largest rum collection in South Florida. It’s the kind of place where you can feast on Rum-Glazed Ribs, Coconut Shrimp, Blackjack Burgers, and sip a Dark & Stormy while swapping stories with the regulars. The mood is adventurous and a little mischievous — attracting bikers, night owls, and locals who treat Black Jack’s like their secret hideaway.
