Anthony’s Runway 84

Anthony’s Runway 84 trades in intangibles more than any restaurant in South Florida, the kind of place people return to for a feeling more than the food. Not that the menu isn’t packed with red sauce-laden classics like chicken vodka parm, veal chop Danielle, and rigatoni pomodoro. But the old-school Italian ambience has kept people coming back for generations, where every table looks like it could be ripped from the set of “Goodfellas” and a lounge singer croons Sinatra nightly. The bar is perpetually packed with regulars, and even if you’re new, the sharp-dressed maitre’D makes you feel like family as soon as you walk in.

Pro tip: Head in for Friday lunch, the only day of the week Runway serves it. It’s A+ Old Florida people watching.
