Fodor's Review:
Home to big cups of strong coffee and a demanding skip-your-dinner dessert display, Lester's has stood as a 24-hour haven for the hungry along State Road 84 since 1967. Truckers head in here on their way to Port Everglades, as do workers from the area's thriving marine industry, suits from downtown toting briefcases, and tourists packing beach bags. Patronage gets even more eclectic in the wee hours. A stick-to-the-ribs menu includes breakfast anytime, homemade soups, sandwiches (try the Monte Cristo), salads, and dinners of generous portions. If your cholesterol count can take the hit, try the country-fried steak for less than $10 or the chicken-liver omelet (under $6). Smokers like the patio dining, under a red awning on the east side, but don't count on a view beyond what's in the parking lot. Two other Lester's -- in western Broward's Margate and Sunrise -- close at midnight on weeknights.
