Description

After trying to sell the place for years, the Trata people finally got out and Flight 19 will open here. Flight 19 refers to 5 planes that mysteriously disappeared in 1945. Probably not a great name for a restaurant.

Flight 19 is what happens when you don't have an idea for a restaurant but want to open one anyway. So you buy someone else's failed idea and then implement a new, incoherent idea without any plan for marketing it to get people interested.

Will they last the season?

I recently watched "First Encounters of the 3rd Kind"; one of the great movies of all time, and Fight 19 is a big part of the story; the aliens return the pilots from Flight 19 to end the movie. I certainly didn't know anything about Flight 19 when I first saw the movie; maybe if the owners here had featured that info it might have registered more interest in the business.

So the answer to my question is: No

Who would pay $14 for french toast in this place?

Why would anyone name a business in reference to a disaster? Was the Titanic and Hindenburg already taken?

Better than Fork and Balls.

Lol!! 😜

The food pics on Yelp provide mucho entertainment. Their version of hollandaise is particularly amusing. You see one picture of a broken sauce and figure it was a mistake, but all of the pictures are the same incompetent mess. Whoever is making this junk has no clue what they're doing. Also amusing is the dopey yelpers who have no idea what good food is supposed to be like.

We have the menu; get out your magnifying glass. This smallish menu is more suitable to a beachside shack than a restaurant on Las Olas. Expensive wine with low-end food. No lunch menu posted.

Another place to get a $15 chicken cutlet sandwich. That's $1 worth of food people.
