Father's Day: Treat Dad right with a special brunch, lunch or dinner

Wondering what to do for dear old Dad on his special day?

Well, first tell him how much he means to you and thank him for the sacrifices he made for you.

Maybe, tell him how much you appreciate him being there for your games, recitals and dance performances. Or tell him how much of the good character you possess is a direct result of his actions that you witnessed your entire life.

Then take him out for a fantastic dinner or lunch and actually pick up the tab!

Here are a few restaurants throughout Palm Beach County that are offering special Father's Day deals and menu items.
