On May 24th 2023, Restauranters Chef Michael Gervasi and Tony “Big T” Gervasi signed a definitive agreement with Chef Daniel Newman to acquire Newsman Sales LLC d/b/a Over the Bridge Café for an undisclosed amount.

Over the Bridge Café is located on the south side of Atlantic Ave just west of the Atlan-tic Ave Drawbridge. OTBC is open 7 days a week serving breakfast, lunch and happy hour. The menu spans from traditional favorites like the 'All American Breakfast', all the way to crea-tive house specialties like the 'Mushroom Breakfast Flatbread'.
Chef Michael stated “When we heard that there was an opportunity with ‘Over The Bridge’ we knew this was perfect for us. We have been big fans (of Over the Bridge Café) since moving to Delray in 2019.”
“When I sat down with Chef Mike and Big T, I knew they were the perfect restau-ranters to continue and grow our vision of Over the Bridge Café” remarked Chef Daniel.
“We share the same vision as Dan and Samantha wanting a restaurant where you are welcome, comfortable and treated like family,” – Big T also said, “We will be looking into expanding the hours, because who doesn’t love breakfast for dinner?”
Chef Michael and Tony “Big T” Gervasi are award winning restauranters from New Jer-sey that relocated to Florida in 2014. Chef Michael has worked at great local restaurants in-cluding Latitudes at the Delray Sands Resort where he was the Sous Chef. Most recently, Chef Michael and Big T were owners of Big T’s Deli at the former Delray Beach Market which closed its doors February 2023.
Chef Daniel and his wife Samantha are veterans of the hospitality industry spending time at Disney and Marriott. Together, they grew a beautiful family with deep roots in the Delray community. In 2017 they wanted to create a delicious yet accessible place that was truly for the locals; Over the Bridge Café was born.
Chef Daniel looks forward to spending time with his family and working on his new res-taurant project.
Over the Bridge Café is located at 814 E Atlantic Ave, Delray Beach, Fl. Open every day from 8am to 3pm.
