ABOUT US

 
Located in The Grand Summit Hotel, The HAT Tavern is South Florida Celebrity Chef Tony Sindaco’s latest new concept, scheduled to open in January of 2011.  Sindaco, former Chef and Owner of Fort Lauderdale’s critically acclaimed Sunfish Grill, has developed an exciting new menu for the HAT Tavern, concentrating on the perfect hamburger. 

The name HAT captures the rich history of the hotel as the original owner’s name HATT was immortalized in brick on the front façade of hotel.  The subsequent owner, real estate magnate, Harry A. Taylor, chopped out one of the T’s to leave his initials, H.A.T, still noticeable today.  The HAT Tavern concept invokes the hotel’s long history of having the area’s most popular bar and gathering place. 

The menu includes “La Frieda” blend, naturally raised and hormone free, graded USDA Choice Prime specialty burgers, a large selection of tapas and salads and “Jersey Fresh” locally grown foods. The drink selection is extensive with ales from all over the country and wines sourced from the most select vineyards. And for the young at heart, milkshakes, Boylan’s soda floats and Jersey shore fries.
