M.N.
Hi S....I too live in Sunrise and am a mother to twins. We go to Beef O'Brady's all the time because they do understand "family". The girls always have a good time and nobody cares if they make noise. The food is good and the service is great!
We also enjoy going down the street to Sze-Chuan Panda with our girls. We like to sit away from everyone here and they understand this. LoL-I think we eat there too much as they already know us. The food is so yummy and the prices are great.
If you enjoy BBQ I recommend Woody's. This is another place where you don't have to be all hush-hush with your child. The girls always make a mess, but have a nice time.
If you are in the mood for Italian, then I suggest Little Italy. Its a family run business and there are always kids from little league teams in there...so again, noise is not a problem. The food is "okay" and the prices are decent.
We also enjoy Quarter-Decks off of Sunrise Blvd & Flamingo. They've got swing-benches where you can eat outside and they have a great inside staff not to mention a beautiful fish tank to entertain any kid. The safe is good, the food is good and again...nobody cares about the noise.
Hope this has helped somewhat.
