Restaurants in Weston

Lunch boxes burst with authentic eats from Lola's Italian Groceria, where sandwich artisans sculpt imported ingredients and cold cuts into culinary masterpieces, including several gluten-free dishes. The sultry sizzle of the midday menu's eggplant parmesan sandwich, slathered with tomato sauce and provolone cheese ($6.25 for small, $8.25 for large), serenades diners into passionate acts of devouring. Meanwhile, a meaty triumvirate of mortadella, salami, and hot ham fight for final condiment authority over the italian sub, ablaze with a heap of hot peppers ($6 for small, $7.50 for large).

Since 1986, the chefs at Sabatino’s Italian Kitchen have been preparing entrees; making pastas such as scampi, marsala, and cacciatore; and stuffing calzones and hot subs with tried-and-true Italian ingredients. The restaurant's pizzas are loaded with whole-tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese, and accoutrements such as roasted peppers, pesto sauce, and roasted eggplant. Toppings choices abound for thin-crust pizzas, while set gourmet combinations such as the four-cheese and meat-lovers pizzas take the guesswork out of ordering. They can also pack up cold cuts such as salami, sweet capicola, and prosciutto by the pound for at-home meat-shrine building. Though not valid with this Groupon, Sabatino's also features an extensive wine list.

Habanero’s Mexican Kitchen and Tequila Bar

Before he could call himself a master of Mexican cooking, chef Jim Fahey knew what he had to do. He went straight to the source, traveling extensively throughout Mexico and picking up new skills wherever he could—in restaurants, at street vendors’ carts, and even in the kitchens of local homes. After more than 30 years as a chef, Fahey has found what it takes to craft Mexican food the right way. His discoveries abroad compelled him to open Habanero’s Mexican Kitchen and Tequila Bar, where he crafts dishes that are healthy, fresh, and simple. Take, for example, his guacamole. Whether infused with chipotle or topped with salsa and Mexican cheese, every bowl of the creamy dip is made to order. The same goes for the enchiladas and burritos, the latter of which can only reasonably be eaten with a knife and fork or two sharpened oars. Fahey is also an expert in tequila, as his menu of nearly 100 premium variations will attest. The agave spirits are served in margaritas, flights, or shot glasses.

Inside a spacious setting adorned with Thai-style woodcarvings, stately pillars, and hanging plants, Erawan of Siam's chef and owner prepares authentic Thai cuisine using techniques perfected across her more than 20-year career. She folds traditional herbs and spices into every dish, starting with appetizers such as the red-curry-infused todmun, a golden-fried shrimp cake served alongside a ground peanut and cucumber dipping sauce. From there, tongues traverse main dishes that, like the best Harlequin romances, span three levels of spiciness, progressing from sweet and mild stir-fried roasted duck with pineapple and scallions to grilled salmon laced with extra spicy choo-chee curry.

Bombay Mahal Restaurant's executive chef fuses traditional Indian flavors with contemporary twists to create a menu of truly innovative Indian fare. He harnesses the slow, steady heat of a traditional clay tandoor oven to seal in meaty juices, bake naan, and scare away thieving snowmen. The bustling kitchen whips up fresh creations such as curries, tikka masalas, and the specialty seafood masala with pan-seared scallops and shrimp. Thin, flaky crepes called dosai pay homage to southern India, and a vegetarian menu doles out dishes from the western and northern regions. The dining space emulates an exotic setting, swathed in a soft red glow that washes over exposed wooden beams and a divider carved with ornate designs, which are usually reserved for picnic tables vandalized by art students.

Visitors to Tom Can Cook quickly confirm that Tom, whoever he is, isn’t just feigning confidence. He's a master of Asian cuisines, fusing Thai, Korean, Szechuan, and Vietnamese influences for a menu with dozens of different sauces and proteins. Spicy kimchi fried rice hosts morsels of chicken or beef, and the similarly Korean okdol bibimbap mixes meat with veggies and an egg in a stone pot or sturdy top hat. Cooks sauté roasted duck in curry sauce before adding in snow peas, pineapple, and basil sauce to make it siam duck choo chee, and boneless pork loin enjoys a dressing of spicy basil sauce and bamboo shoots in the wild boar basil dish.

Inside the dining room, patrons nourish their bellies at white tablecloths while casting glances at Asian screens, decorative floral gewgaws, and oblong hanging lamps stationed throughout.
