Close to a hundred restaurants have been featured on Check, Please! over the past few years. We thought it was time to give you a chance to send us updates on any restaurants that have changed hands, closed, renovated their building - or their menu...for better or for worse.
Sadly, several of the restaurants that have been featured have closed their doors for good, including Casa Bella of Dania Beach, DeVito's of Miami Beach, and Scorch of North Miami Beach.
Some, like our friends at Josef's of Plantation have closed their restaurants, but have big plans to re-open soon in a new location. Others, like Pasta And... in Margate, changed ownership shortly after they were featured, but have stayed open in the same location with the same menu.
With all these changes taking place, we'd love for you to be our eyes and ears, feeding us news on our featured restaurants when you hear about it. So here is a place to leave your feedback. Loyal viewer, Jack Gilman, recently visited Boston's in Delray Beach only to find a completely renovated restaurant with a few new menu items as well. His comments can be found below.






We went to Pasta And after we saw it on your show. It was fantastic! Have recommended it many many times without a single negative comment to date. Just took friends there this past Saturday and it was the best meal we have had to date. Our friends loved it and we're ready to go back again this week. Changing hands....they didn't miss a beat. Highly recommend it!

Sonja, thanks for the info about Village Cafe. We're sorry to hear they've closed. They were featured in the original pilot season of Check, Please about 4 years ago.

The Village Cafe in Miami Shores has also closed, the place has a For Rent sign on the door.

We just came back from Delray Beach and found Boston’s has been completely rebuilt over the last three months. We understand that yesterday, 10/21/2011 was their opening night. We arrived Saturday, 10/22/2011, and found restaurant has been completely updated. Apparently the building was torn down and rebuilt, they kept the same old charm on the downstairs with new bar and new outside first floor area. Also, the upstairs has been completely changed, it now has a very upscale appearance with the same unobstructed view of the beach. The dishes appear to be the same but I understand from our waitress, the menu has had some changes from a Chief from Key West. Did not follow-up on specific changes but they still have their wonderful Crab/Lobster Cakes and Lobster roll.
