LA CORTE CAFE – Italian
Downtown Fort Lauderdale wakes up here: doors at 7:30, empanadas hand-folded that morning, cafe con leche moving faster than anything else on the board. The Argentinian empanadas are the signature, but the Lunch Break Special is the real draw — one protein, two sides, picadillo or roasted pork or rotisserie chicken with maduros and black beans. Cubanos, choripan, tostada cubana, flan and tres leches fill out the rest. Family-run since 2022, and if you have ordered twice they probably know your name.
