Deerfield Beach: Whale's Rib (May 2004)

My spouse and I dined at the Whale’s Rib for a late dinner in May 2004. For over 30 years, The Whale's Rib restaurant right on Deerfield Beach has been THE hot spot for great seafood and great prices! We are popular all year round thanks to both the seasonal customers and the loyal South Florida locals, who know where to find the best seafood! Thanks to its overwhelming popularity, The Whale's Rib was featured nationally on the Food Network's "Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives" program with Guy Fieri. Known for Lobster, Stone Crabs (in season), Ipswich Clams, Fresh Oysters, Oysters Rockefeller, Rock Shrimp, one-of-a-kind sandwiches, and extensive raw bar selections, The Whale's Rib has something for everyone. Fresh Mahi-Mahi continues to be the most popular fish, while the "Whale Fries" outsell all items. These mouth-watering, freshly cut potato chips are cooked to order and served hot with "Whale Juice", a real customer favorite! Complementing the seafood selections are numerous oversized, unique sandwiches, several entree salads, and juicy blackened prime rib. Unlike many South Florida seafood restaurants, The Whale's Rib offers the same low priced menu for both lunch and dinner.
