Restaurant specials for Easter, Passover
The best Passover and Easter restaurant specials for dine-in and takeout
Will Passover and Easter bring South Floridians out of their homes and into restaurants?
If secular celebrations such as New Year’s Eve, Super Bowl and Valentine’s Day are any indication, then the sacred holidays could resemble pre-pandemic days.
We’ve compiled a list of some of our favorite restaurant offers in Broward and southern Palm Beach counties.
Passover is March 27-April 4 and Easter is April 4.
Remember that prices may not include taxes and gratuities.
