“So yummy! We ordered the tonkotsu ramen and the curry chicken don from the lunch special and it came out super fast and extremely fresh. Our server was Jackie and she was very knowledgeable about the specials and the menu! The manager Hedy was also very friendly and I would most definitely come again!”
“Great small pub with a unique menu for food and libations. We try to go there whenever possible as it's a Brandon/Bloomingdale/Valrico best kept secret for food, drinks and hangout!”
“I loved it Ann our waitress was a sweetheart and very kind and very good at her job we will be back for the buffet soon thank you all for your hard work and services ????‼️ ?”
“We've been here a handful of times, each time the food has left a smile on our face. I recommend getting the Prime rib with broccoli n cheddar soup and a baked potato.”
“First time here and we have mixed reviews. We were seated almost immediately (for a Wednesday at 6:30). Our server was nice, but didn't really follow up with us that much. We got the muffaletta (the half size portion was bigger than a full size sub!), but even though I ordered it cold, it was served lukewarm, like they started to heat it and then forgot it was supposed to be cold. We did have to send back our lukewarm fries, and ended up getting them when we finished our meal and were getting the check. My brother got the chicken and waffles, which he said was the best he's ever had, and highly recommends the homemade brandy sauce that comes with it. The dripping chicken sandwich was ok, but not worth the mess. We also got gator bites, which were very flavorful, but very small. I would come back and try different dishes out of curiosity.”
Restaurants by Cuisine
“I definitely felt the shrinkflation on the pork and beef fried rice. A lot less today but we ordered extra meat and they made it right. I would rather pay more than get a shrinkflation meal.”
“I am a seafood lover and when I went to the restaurant I ordered the shrimp salad it was good. Sometimes I will get the bag with lobster snow crab corn very nice people.”
“The first time I had Tadas kitchen, it was incredible. I’m a vegetarian, so I was so excited to see they had great vegetarian options. When I last ordered the veggie pho, it had vegan meatballs, vegan ham, and corn, all of which were delicious. Now, the veggie pho just has bland strips of tofu (note: I ordered from Uber Eats, which still describes the item as having the Vegan ham and meatballs). A bit disappointed this time around as the pho wasn’t as flavorful with the tofu. My boyfriend however said the fried shrimp appetizer was very good.”
Restaurants with Delivery
“I ordered a pepper pizza, it took me around 20 minutes to get home, when I opened it it was still smoking, with this I want to tell you that even the box (embace) is of quality, imagine the pizza, how tasty, suitable for any palate, for me the best in Tampa.”
“A great experience always starts with the staff, they were spot on, food was very good, sausage was a little spicy, which I enjoyed. Lulu was the icing on the cake...well done!”
“This is our FAVORITE vegan restaurant in all of central Florida! Wish we could go there more often but it is about an hour away from our house. We come here for birthdays and date nights.Vegetarian options: Really it is all vegan, as far as I've seen.Don't forget to get one of their vegan milkshakes. The Best.”
“This is one of favorite local businesses. Everything is made fresh to order! Prices are reasonable. 10/10 recommend. I crave this all the time.My favorites are the build your own bowl and avocado toast. The wellness shots are extra powerful.”

“I stumbled upon this restaurant while I was leaving a doctor's appointment in the area. The food is sooo good like comfort level food good. If you find yourself over this way stop here the owner is an absolute gem of a person. I only wish there were an area for taking naps after the food hits ?.”
“The girls at the counter were very polite with great customer service. Shoutout to the cooks for everything being delicious. This place is always a favorite. Thank you.”
“Stopped on the way home from out of town. Small family owned business with a fast casual feel but way better food. When the food came out with sumac I was hyped because I knew it would be good. The woman who took my order was very nice and helpful. The hummus was amazing, creamy in texture and the pita was warm and fresh. SOO good. The babaganoush was not my favorite because I prefer creamier but it was still quite good. Fattoush salad dressing was incredible. I got it with chicken and I didn't even need to. Falafel wrap was amazing. The falafel was fresh, the wrap was press toasted perfectly I love a toasted wrap. Light balsamic glaze on the outside, it was the perfect portion. Get a wrap! If I go back (quite out of the way from where I am probably an hour) I would get hummus, fattoush and a falafel wrap. I got a to go mix grill, I picked at the meat to try. It wasn't bad but not my favorite thing I ate there. If you like fresh mint their mint lemonade is delicious.”
“Great small pub with a unique menu for food and libations. We try to go there whenever possible as it's a Brandon/Bloomingdale/Valrico best kept secret for food, drinks and hangout!”
“Easily the best Indian cuisine in the area! Quaint little location with a relaxing evening environment. Friendly staff and amazing food! Be careful if you ask for their hottest! It's not to be underestimated.”
“I'm going to be honest I have some seafood chowder I had never had it before it was amazing it was delicious right text you right ingredients I really really enjoyed it if my dessert I had a coffee cake um um GOOD i will come back when i visit Florida ”
“We've been enjoying Bin & Board since they opened. I can't believe I'm just now posting a review. Lacey, Amanda and the team make you feel so welcome. The food is delicious and the wine options always rotate so you'll never be disappointed when you go! They take time to connect with you and find the right wine for you to enjoy. I can't say enough good things I love this place and the ladies that work there! Try the tuna and hummus.... they are my favorite! Plus, the options for the boards, are endless. Stop reading and go!”
“This is such a great coffee shop! It's conveniently located if you're in the Brandon area. I was looking for a spot where I can meet clients and sit at for Zoom meetings and I found it! It's large enough to sit quite a lot of people comfortably, and yet it's not too noisy. Luyz is the owner and he's awesome! He'll answer any questions that you have and make you feel welcome. The food and service are great. There are lots of tasty options. I had the fetta and spinach womelette. All omelets are cooked in a waffle iron, so they're nice and fluffy! If you're eating in, you get served on real dishes, not disposable ones. I'm always a fan of less waste.”

“We are a Non Profit that asked Otoole's to cater our Gasparilla float of 145 people for the Day Parade. (No easy task) the food had to be ready to go by 10am, and stay fresh. Well Otoole's Management and Kitchen made it possible - not only did the food come out fresh, there was plenty and a good variety addressing all of our food needs!! Thank you Otoole's!!”
“My fiancé and I came here for my birthday and we had a wonderful experience! The store was very clean and cozy, and we were impressed with how efficient and nice the staff were. Our waiter Tony was very kind and was always a step ahead. We loved everything we ordered- we definitely recommend this ”

“Came to Ale House for lunch and got the pleasure of being served by Chris 20. He was attentive and personable. We had some errors with the food coming out wrong from the kitchen and Chris 20 was efficient in solving the problem. Highly recommend asking for him.”

“I recently ordered delivery from Los Chapos Tacos and I was absolutely blown away by the quality of their food and service. From start to finish, the entire experience was top-notch and exceeded all of my expectations.The delivery was prompt and the food arrived piping hot, just as if I were dining in at the restaurant itself. The packaging was secure and ensured that the food stayed fresh and delicious during transit.As for the food itself, it was absolutely phenomenal. The tacos were bursting with flavor, with perfectly seasoned meat and fresh toppings. The guacamole was creamy and had just the right amount of kick, and the salsa added the perfect amount of heat to each bite.The portion sizes were generous, and I was pleasantly surprised by the affordable prices for such high-quality food. It was clear that attention to detail and care went into preparing each dish.Overall, I cannot recommend Los Chapos Tacos enough for anyone looking for authentic and delicious Mexican cuisine delivered right to their doorstep. This experience has solidified them as my go-to choice for tacos, and I will definitely be ordering from them again in the future. Five stars all the way.”
“I am a seafood lover and when I went to the restaurant I ordered the shrimp salad it was good. Sometimes I will get the bag with lobster snow crab corn very nice people.”
“Not sure what it is like to eat at Portillo's but it does have an interesting decor. We ordered for lunch at work I had the rodeo burger with fries and was very happy. It may very well be the best burger I have had in years.”
“The first time I had Tadas kitchen, it was incredible. I’m a vegetarian, so I was so excited to see they had great vegetarian options.

“Dichos is fantastically good - We especially love the bean and cheese, steak and cheese and Al Pastor pupusas as well as the Al Pastor Gordita which is light, crispy and delicious! The owner treats everyone like family and their food is prepared with love which comes through in its flavor. Prices are really reasonable and they also have a wonderful Agua de Jamaica, or "hibiscus water" which is not only extremely tasty but is also great for its health benefits too. My only warning is to let your pupusas cool a bit when they arrive at your table because when they come off of La Plata...they are super-duper hot-ta! ?? We Love this place! And I hope you will too! ? Try them they are great!”
“All right I have to share the experience. Everybody is super friendly here the manager Steve was absolutely amazing. This is the only place I've been to where the food looks like the pictures and Steve was absolutely amazing and treated us like kings and queens. I highly recommend especially if you like barbecue they have all kinds of different types of sauces and even combo sauces that you can put together. When you come make sure you order the burnt ends .. I've never had them before but they melt in your mouth! Get them!! By the way this is a great date place gentleman.. hint hint. ( bonus... as we're sitting here and it's 12:00 they do the national anthem and as a veteran.. it was definatly appreciated!)”
“The food was fresh and amazing but the customer service is even better.Being 9 months pregnant and new to the area I wanted to try every sauce with my takeout order, they didn’t forget a single one and were so friendly when I arrived. Offered me water while I waited for my Togo.The chicken gyro plate, Greek salad and rice pudding were all great choices. Loved all the dips. Don’t sleep on this family owned restaurant!”
“This was my first visit to La Cocinita Cubana. I was feeling like getting a hamburger and the lady who helped me offered her Frita Cubana Sandwich which is a Cuban style hamburger on Cuban white bread made with chorizo(red sausage) and potato stix. I also got an order of Papa Fritas on the side with an Iron Beer which is a non-alcoholic soda similar to root beer.It seemed like she was the only one making the orders so the wait for the food took about 15 minutes since I came with two coworkers, but otherwise once I tried the sandwich I was instantly in love!It's a nice Cuban twist on classic American fare and paired with the side and drink, it really hit the spot.As for the dining area there are a few red picnic tables underneath a tent for shade so while it's not much it is definitely better than nothing and affords customers a spot to wait and then enjoy the meal they've ordered right away.I'd highly recommend taking an opportunity to try out this popular Cuban food truck in Brandon.”

I told them 'I commented you on Google because I like taste of your food'. They gave me free cake ? you can also request a free cake after commenting. Just show them the comment ?”
“Today I ordered through the app and misunderstood how to order exactly what I wanted. The girl behind the counter was happy to make the adjustment although it was my mistake. Customer service like this will keep me coming back. It’s also always tasty and fresh!”
“Best of!!!!! We had the snow crab, king crab, lobster bisque and of course while not the best I’ve ever had, it’s up there. And the waiter, my bad for not remember his name, fantastic. Very informed and amazing responsiveness. We had a group of friends join us at the end of our meal and he had them open up another table that did accommodate for all of us to join and enjoy the environment. Amazing experience. Will most absolutely return to this location. Keep up the good work nameless waiter. Not his fault we don’t remember his name. Great job.”
“Definitely my go to spot when I need a healthy ready to go meal. I like the fact I can place an order ahead of time or just stop in and grab the ready to go meals. Highly recommend.”

“I have to spill the beans on this place! We just discovered this place like the beginning of this month and have already got 4 pizzas from them! We love the meatball and hot honey, also have to say I love that you can split pizza so you can enjoy both! The avocado spread with the bread, is good. Kids Alfredo though not good, unfortunately but there’s always room for improvement. We weren’t a fan of the wings, just honest opinion, but I would go there over and over again for the PIZZA! So great!”

I recommend this location.”

All were delicious. nachos plate is HUGE, it can feed 2 people, the fries are large cut ,fresh and crunchy, the smoothie has great flavor, not overly sweet.

It was very relaxing not overly crowded and very friendly staff, Raul was amazing 100% on top of everything.”

We had the banana pudding cheesecake that night. O. M. G. If you like banana pudding and you like cheesecake, you'll LOVE this! The slices are so large that half of it was more than enough!

It's a great place to stop for a sweet treat!! Jeremiah's never disappoints!”
“Beautiful place hidden away in this small nook. Lovely woman running the show and absolutely fantastic food. This place needs more attention, don’t let another gem disappear!!”
“Always perfectly made, and very friendly staff. I was a little intimidated at first having no clue what I was getting or how to "order" it. It's literally just choosing a flavor and sweetness level. I like really sweet so I always go with 75% sweetness. I recommend the blueberry with blueberry boba (the tapioca pearls). There's also a display at the counter that shows all of them true to size and look.”
“Great prices! Friendly service and peaceful environment. And delicious cafe con leche. Pastries and bread pudding were nice too - not too sweet and pairs nicely with coffee.”
“The Sicilian pizza is amazing! I even ordered it twice to make sure it wasn't an aberration. This pizza is made with care and attention to the details. Great crumb and texture on the crust; tender but with a good chew. The sauce is amazing! Tastes like maybe 3 ingredients and not too sweet!”
“The food was amazing the shrimp, scallops and white fish in the fish trio was fantastic the scallops were tinder and not chewy.

“I love Tacos La Cañada! It’s a Mexican food truck that makes some of the yummiest Mexican food I’ve ever had. My go-to is the Carne Asada Gordita – it’s so good, I think about it even when I’m not hungry! They also have special dishes every day, so there’s always something new to try. If you’re looking for great Mexican food, you have to check them out. You won’t be disappointed!Parking: Very small parking lot and if a few people park wrong and take up multiple spaces quickly makes it difficult for the next guest that arrive.”
“Nice little boba restaurant in Brandon. Interior may not be as nice as other boba places in town but I’m not complaining.

“Go go go! I can’t believe I haven’t gone here yet. But I can promise I will be making this a regular spot to eat and bring friends with. The food is amazing. My first time having a banh mi, and it was beyond what I expected. The veggies were fresh, bread was crispy yet soft inside, the meat was delicious and flavorful. They are THE standard for me now for a banh mi, I can’t see it getting any better than that (I got the combination banh mi). The fried dumplings were amazing as well, super crispy, the filling was great. The Chinese sausage sticky fried rice was very yummy as well. The tiger tea and the Vietnamese espresso with condensed milk were just as amazing as the food. Must try, nothing bad I could say. The environment was open, truly a family ran business which was so sweet to see, and everyone was so nice.”
“We took my parents there for my Mom's birthday and we had a great dinner. The food was really good - I had the Delmonico and it was cooked to perfection. But even better was our server.

“I really liked the place, the food looks spectacular, now as far as Uber Eats delivery is concerned and this is one more criticism. Well, not in a bad way but rather so that they can improve it, the food packaging should have seals and the juices also because they are containers with A hole in the middle and it is not recommended to leave them like that, because when carrying the food the customer complains that it looks inappropriate,”

“The Aussie Grill is my go to place for an awesome grilled chicken Cobb salad.It’s so easy to order on the app. I always go to recent orders and hit re-order. I do omit the kettle chips, bacon, and dressing. They have never messed up my salad. I also always ask for the chicken in a separate container so my salad doesn’t get hot. by the time I get to the restaurant it’s usually being bagged. So it’s always perfect timing! I will not go anywhere else for a takeout salad.Parking: They have reserved spots for takeout.”
“THE perfect place to get awesome food. The atmosphere is a perfect cross between quick food and a restaurant. Everyone was friendly and the food arrived to the table quickly ?”
“Joanna was amazing ? it was my first time there yesterday and her recommendations were amazing food was amazing especially the steak ? tacos ? and they’re frozen ”
“This place is becoming one of our "fav" when ordering asian cuisine; taste wise and mostly freshness.They offer a variety of food including vegetarian and all great!I usually order via Uber and they are really amazing to prepare the order in a timely manner, I always have my orders fast.Whether you live in the area or visiting the Brandon or surrounding areas, this is the place to visit if you crave for Asian food, you will definitely not be disappointed at all!”
“I eat here often. No real complaints. Food is pretty constant with every so often being sub par, usually clean and staff is average in friendliness but never rude.”
“Never disappointed by the ice cream, and they maintain the old school style play area. Fresh paint and hardware. It'd be nice if vagrants didn't linger around property and smoking wasn't permitted where people are trying to enjoy the patio with kids.Kid-friendliness: They maintain some super old school playground equipment. Fun when kids are laughing, playing and being kids.”
“Best Subway in town! Employees are awesome and they make great sandwichesVegetarian options: They have everything fresh looking and fresh tasting. Very clean Subway I love it and so does my grandma”

“Typical comfort food style buffet. The place has been here forever, so the interior is a little old, but everything is clean and well kept. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The presentation of the food was done well, and everything looked good and freshly rotated. The food I was able to try was pretty good for the most part.”
“Delicious! Chic fil a is shaking in their boots corporate is drawing up spreadsheets investors are shaky. Culvers is taking over. Great fresh food served by friendly people who don't sweat you for a tip. What a ”
“I feel bad to have to drop a star, but what's on their website wasn't available in the store. They also haven't updated their payment system to touch pay. Not a deal breaker, just not as convenient. Everything else, 5 stars.”

“Love the location, the service was excellent and the food was delicious highly recommendVegetarian options: Freshly cooked veggies and they have the veggie burger as well”
“Food was delicious and really great service. We had the Weekend special, raw oysters and spring rolls. My wife had a margerita and I tried one of the drafts. Will be coming back for ”
“We started with the grape leaves and falafel apps. I was pleasantly surprised that the grape leaves were not served cold as most places do. Hot grape leafs are my favorite. The falafel was perfectly cooked. Reminded me of my mom’s cooking. My wife got the chicken Shawarma plate and enjoyed it . I got the mixed grill plate and it did not disappoint. All halal meat was cooked and flavored very well. Portion size was great for the prize . We both took some food home. Aside from the food Majdi , the gentleman behind the counter which I think is the owner was very welcoming , warm and made us feel at home right away. Only downfall is that we wish we lived closer but will definitely be coming back !”

“I started going here bc I wanted to find a hangout area for me and my friends that's closer by if we wanna do smth else after school and the inside has such a comfy quiet feeling and isn't a super bright place to me (I'm sensitive towards lighting) the workers there are soso nice and kind and I notice more things everytime I go here such as a small area where they have books which is neat and another shelf with Sanitizer, napkins, and paper plates if I remember. ^^ The food there is delicious so far (I've tried 2 dishes so far) and very fulling!! I absolutely love the vibes inside and enjoy coming here!!!! \(^^)/”
“It's a small place with an outside sitting area. It's mostly Spanish music playing. I thought it was a little too loud for such a small place. I will be hard to talk to anyone inside. The drinks were amazing, and the bartenders were great.”
“Whenever I'm in the mood for a truly satisfying lunch, South Pacific Grill is my go-to spot. Their Korean BBQ ribs are a standout dish—perfectly cooked, with a balance of sweet and savory that hits every note just right. The meat is always tender and falls right off the bone, a testament to the skill and care that go into every plate.But it's not just the ribs that keep me coming back. The menu is a treasure trove of delicious options, each with its own unique twist that sets South Pacific Grill apart from any other lunch spot. The service is quick and friendly, making it all the more enjoyable to stop by during a busy day. Whether you're a longtime fan of Korean BBQ ribs or looking for something new to try, this food truck is a must-visit. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you!!”
“One of the best pizza I've had in years. Recommend The Don. The wood fired oven enhances the overall flavor. Outstanding and priced right. This is my new pizza place to go.”
“Had blackened fish lunch with fries & unsweetened tea. It was very good, better than expected. Will try that Reuben next!!*Update. I tried the Reuben as I said I would and it was VERY good!!!”
“This place is amazing! It is beautifully decorated and the food was DELICIOUS. I also got thai tea and it was so good. The workers were very kind and the service was quick with very reasonable prices! I will definitely be coming ”
“I am delighted to document my commendation based on the consistently exceptional encounters I have had at the esteemed Cuban sandwich establishment, La Cubanita. Upon each visit, I am cordially welcomed by the amiable staff who consistently exhibit warmth and hospitality. The gastronomic offerings at La Cubanita are truly remarkable, with their Cuban sandwiches standing out as a paragon of excellence. Unlike the neighboring establishments, La Cubanita prides itself on its genuine utilization of succulent, real pork in their signature Cuban sandwiches. This unequivocally distinguishes La Cubanita as the prime destination for me, as the authenticity of their pork is the quintessential reason why I continue to patronize their establishment.”
“An incredible amount of yumminess. Protein choices were fresh. The sauce delicious. Easy substitution for allergy concern. Fast and friendly service. Great food and no stress. What more can a I want?”
“Steak tacos and burritos were excellent. VERY generous portions of meat. Authentic flavor, good sauces. Love it! Will definitely be coming back.Dietary restrictions: Gluten and dairy free options. Just get corn tortillas (for tacos) and no sour cream or cheese.”
“There are a few places we revisit, just because there is a restaurants that we return to. In Martin’s Indian Cuisine we have found one such place, only our third in the Central Florida area. We were in the area and hungry, so decided to try this authentic Kerala cooking. We were in for a treat!! First the food. We ordered their black chana curry, vegetarian curry, with rice, (APPAM! -7 stars goodness of light, soft and yummy!) Jackfruit biryani, Malabar paratha (genuinely authentic) and starters which we sat and ate on the premises, along with chutney. We also ordered hot tea for takeaway. We took our food to enjoy as a picnic in Davis Park, (on this beautiful spring day) which is just a 4 minutes drive away.Also, Martin’s a primarily a takeaway, though they do have comfortable seating to enjoy their snacks, which we did. There are clean restrooms to wash up if you like. We had the onion Vada style pakoras and the the homemade samosas. Both were delicious!One can absolutely feel the pride in preparation and the passion poured into these staple items. Even the rice was excellent and delicious by itself, with a perfect smattering of raisins and cashew bits. The salt was perfect, and even the mild spice level we asked for, was perfect.None of the dishes were olive or greasy, bar the fried onion Vada. Even the samosas were not over friend and did not make my hands overly greasy. The chutney is delicious too.The place is very clean, obviously lived by the locals. The tea was the perfect ending to a lovely meal surrounded by 200 year old trees. We will definitely be back with our family!”
“This is second location of a Mellow Mushroom I have been to, and must say this location is better than the other one! The bartender was pulling double duty, as he was tending to the bar and providing excellent service to us a party of 10! No complaints of the food, it came out hot, fresh, and delicious!”
“Ordered the 8pc family meal. Mac and cheese is ? rice and beans ? . the apple cobbler was sooooooooo good! Im glad I took it home for dessert. It tasted so good with my vanilla icecream! The staff was so amazing and patient. They even handed me a sample of the mac n cheese as soon as I started asking about lol ? (my picky 5 year old approved) Everything was seasoned to perfection! I will be coming there again! Thank you!”
“I stopped by yesterday to try their burgers. The place is very clean and it was surprisingly very quiet for a Friday afternoon. Ordered a #7 to go without the fries & drink combo. The burger is very good, cooked to perfection and everything was fresh. I personally would have liked a bit more seasoning on the burger but that’s my own personal preference. I’d definitely go here more if I lived in the area and recommend that you give this locally owned business a try if you haven’t already.”
“Keith's restaurant is a must-visit for anyone who appreciates delicious food, warm hospitality, and a dining experience that leaves a lasting impression. The food is outstanding, the owner is exceptional, and the overall atmosphere is one of true hospitality. I highly recommend Keith's to anyone looking for a remarkable culinary experience.”
“Out go to place. The only down side was this time our server chose to ignore us and sit in the corner of and on with her boyfriend.So her tip reflected such. Food and Atmosphere is always awesome.”
“I've been coming here since they've open. Never had a bad experience with food nor with customer service. As a regular I always sit at the same table. They don't even bring me the menu cause they know what I want. I absolutely love this place.”
“My husband and I love this place! The staff is very nice. The food is delicious! We often get the Jaeger Art Schnitzel, but they also have really good specials, and apple strudel. We have tried a couple other places in Tampa and find this one to be our favorite!”

“It was crazy there But Charles was amazing. He was helping his team and making sure all of the guest were satisfied. Also giving compliments to the kitchen staff. I will definitely eat here again.Parking: Clean open and easy”
“I definitely felt the shrinkflation on the pork and beef fried rice. A lot less today but we ordered extra meat and they made it right. I would rather pay more than get a shrinkflation meal.”
“The Sicilian pizza is amazing! I even ordered it twice to make sure it wasn't an aberration. This pizza is made with care and attention to the details. Great crumb and texture on the crust; tender but with a good chew. The sauce is amazing! Tastes like maybe 3 ingredients and not too sweet!”
“One of a kind! The food is sooo good and fresh! Definitely go before 6pm, drinks are only $4! I have nothing bad to say about this place! The lobster dip was great! Jumbo shrimp we cooked at our table. House salad, freshhhh! Clam chowder fresh and creamy! Ribs were sweet and tender! Filet medalions cooked ourselves at the table and were so tender that it was softer than crab meat??!”
“This is one of the best places to eat in Brandon. The food is always made to perfection. Staff & live entertainment are also great. They are not highly priced. I always leave happy.”
“Don't let the building mislead you! This place has some of the best vietnamese food that I've had in Florida. The staff is friendly, the establishment clean and my food is always served promptly. The take out is also great as well, which I can't say for too many restaurants these days.”
“Don't be fooled by the layout. Best bagels I've ever had. Handmade cream cheeses as well. I heard about this place and was driving up the coast. Just a little over a mile off the interstate.”
“This is a good-sized restaurant for any size party. They revamped their menu,adding some additional choices. The food is good for what it is. It is a versatile restaurant that allows you to do an all you can eat option to simply order off the menu option. The quality of food ingredients is good. My girlfriend and I both decided to go for the all you can eat option. You are able to pick any 4 items off the menu, and they bring you a small portion of that item. Brilliant!!! We are able to try new dishes without wasting food. If we like what we ordered, we can get more of it. Now, if we didn't like something, no big deal, only a small amount of waste. We tried several dishes, and overall, they all tasted good. They also have a huge sushi selection as part of that all you can eat option. I completely forgot to mention that in the beginning. I personally don't eat sushi, but my girlfriend is a huge fan of it and got her feedback on it. She was completely delighted with all the different offerings of sushi. Everything she tried was a hit. Her favorites were the Sexy girl and Rock n Roll. Overall, it is a good place to experiment and enjoy some good food. Great for large parties and a little of something foodwise for all types of eaters. The only issue we had was the service times it takes for food to come out. I don't think it was the kitchen itself, but the server just not keeping up with food ordering and drinks. Both issues we had, I believe, were the server not paying attention, leaving us waiting to order our next choices and thirsty. We will definitely be back here again in the near future. Wait!!!!! When you go, try the crab taco it was a brilliant treat. Hint it is made with what appears to be PringlesInteresting right?! Interesting yet, yummy! ?”
“My husband is a truck driver so we have had Jamaican food from many places. This place is faaaar the best place we've ever had!!! We ordered the ox tails, stewed beef, and spicy Jamaican patty. All full of flavor, meat super tender, and the patty flacky with the right amount of heat. They have excellent customer service as well. Love, love, love this place!! Will not disappoint!”
“The food was fresh and amazing but the customer service is even better.Being 9 months pregnant and new to the area I wanted to try every sauce with my takeout order, they didn’t forget a single one and were so friendly when I arrived. Offered me water while I waited for my Togo.The chicken gyro plate, Greek salad and rice pudding were all great choices. Loved all the dips. Don’t sleep on this family owned restaurant!”
“Ordered from here for the first time last night, and it just wasn’t our cup of tea. The service was great and the place seemed very clean, we just weren’t a huge fan of their style of food. If you’re looking for a Chinese place maybe give them a try because it might be more to your preference.”
“This is a little pricey for breakfast/brunch so thought let's try. Not really impressed. Eggs Benedict, my poached eggs were hard poached, nice sized/thick Canadian bacon. Got a short stack of pancakes, they don't have real maple syrup. Not even an option to buy a little jar or anything. Their competition is First Watch and Cracker Barrel, bot of which offers REAL SYRUP...I know 95% of Americans don't care about that, but for the 5% ...it's nice to offer that, we'll even PAY FOR IT.”
“Came here for lunch. It's a cute little family owned business. The people who worked there are kind and the food was EXCELLENT! Very authentic andyou could tell it's homemade. Will be coming back”
“It was good, had a lot of options. The food was a little dry which is why I docked at a star. However they have a lot of combinations especially for people with allergies and so forth, they even have an allergen chart to help you decide what you can and can't ”
“The Aussie Grill is my go to place for an awesome grilled chicken Cobb salad.It’s so easy to order on the app. I always go to recent orders and hit re-order. I do omit the kettle chips, bacon, and dressing. They have never messed up my salad. I also always ask for the chicken in a separate container so my salad doesn’t get hot. by the time I get to the restaurant it’s usually being bagged. So it’s always perfect timing! I will not go anywhere else for a takeout salad.Parking: They have reserved spots for takeout.”

“A great experience always starts with the staff, they were spot on, food was very good, sausage was a little spicy, which I enjoyed. Lulu was the icing on the cake...well done!”
“Came to Ale House for lunch and got the pleasure of being served by Chris 20. He was attentive and personable. We had some errors with the food coming out wrong from the kitchen and Chris 20 was efficient in solving the problem. Highly recommend asking for him.”
“I went to eat here last night with a group of 20+ friends and family. First off the Service was amazing. The host greeted me respectfully, complimentes the way I was dresses, because I had just come from an event. Then our server Erik T 10/10 he made good recommendations on what to order for food and drinks. Also kept it a lively and fun atmosphere. So for drinks I got The Boomarita which consists of 4 different kinds of margarita for $9.99, the 4 margaritas were, Sauza Gold Tequila Margarita, Mango Margarita, Blackberry Margarita and Watermelon Margarita. Pesonally the drinks were very good except the straight tequila one it's was way too watery couldn't even taste the alcohol. It was just water with salt. Probably it was jist missed due to it being a group order, but sadly that one came up short the other 3 I recommend. Then for appetizer I ordered The Bloomin Onion, sadly forgot to take a picture because I was very hungry and NGL the Bloomin was Boomin!!!. Best appetizer they have hands down highly recommend and at a good price for 9.99. Then for entree I ordered a new burger they just put on the menu which was The Bloomin Burger, I also highly recommend I ordered it medium-rare came medium-rare and it was delicious. Overall Outback is the place to go when you want to change it up from time to time and get a different experience with delicious, mouth watering food.”
