Steak 954 is serving beefy dinners for dads on June 17.

Father's Day is Sunday, June 17. For many families, that means backyard or beachside barbecues and other meaty affairs. If you don't have the facilities or inclination to put together a holiday meal on your own, Father's Day in a restaurant in Broward County may be the easiest option.
