After almost 30 years of success in Delray Beach, the Green Owl Restaurant has expanded and opened a location in Boynton Beach at 1889 W. Woolbright Road.

David Gensman, the restaurant’s owner, said he has worked in the Delray Green Owl since 1983 and took it over in 1995.

“We really weren’t looking to expand, but stumbled upon this place and it had a good deal on the lease,” Gensman said.

The restaurant is open from 6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Monday through Friday; 7:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday; and 8 a.m. to noon Sunday, with breakfast only.

The Green Owl, which opened in Delray Beach in 1981, is known for its breakfast specials. The Big Breakfast for $6.95 has three eggs, two bacon strips, one sausage, home fries or grits, and hotcakes or toast.

“I’d like to think the consistency of our food is what draws people to our place,” Gensman said.

Gensman said with the economy the way it is, the restaurant tries to keep the price of the food down and affordable.
