“I actually had a nice experience. I had almost given up on RT. Recently, I have been to two that I can say were a step in the right position.Being here in Winter Haven, Fl and Alexander City, Alabama.I'm not some specialist in restaurant etiquette. I just have an eye for somewhere nice to eat.Although th prices are reaching upward, it is still a good occasional destination for the future.They are military friendly. (TY)”

“Very friendly owner and waitress serving delicious food in large portions. The cuban sandwich was authentic and delicious. We were in town for a wedding but will definitely come back when in the area.”

“We LOVE Pelican’s! Friday night 7:30pm 12/23/22 it was in the 40’s and we were wanting our Pelican fix. Mine is Cotton Candy, and my husband gets Cheesecake stuffed.”

“Perfect treat. The apples were not too sweet since they have that sour punch of Granny Smith apples. They were the perfect mix of sweet and sour. We did not try them with ice cream, the machine was down. However, the combo of caramel dip with whipped cream was decadent enough. Our family of 4 split this treat and it wad enough for all of us.”

“So this coffee shop is located to the right main strip towards all the fun The were established in 2021 so it's pretty new compared to the 10 year anniversary LEGOLAND was celebrating I ordered a caramel latte hot which there hot coffee machine wasn't working so I ended up switching to iced the flavor was okay I feel like the staff didn't really know how to make my drink they looked very confused after what feels like forever I finally got my coffee and it tasted fine it wasn't the best but it was nice to start my day with a little caffeine.”

“Surprised by how good and fresh the burgers and fries were. Very used to bad burgers and fries at most theme parks so this was a pleasant surprise. Lots of toppings on the burgers and the fries were hot and crispy.”

“$19 per adult $13 per child, drinks included, here for thanksgiving, they have your basic items but very tasty and clean! The host seats your party which is awesome so no fighting over tables lol Salad bar with all the fixings, alfredo and marinara pasta, cheese, pepperoni, veggie and meat lovers pizza, dessert pizza .. all good! I mean even the drinks out of the fountain tasted better than the whole park, very satisfied!”

“This is a lovely,locally owned restaurant. Huge variety of seafood. Servers are excellent. There was a slight mistake with our order, and they immediately fixed it. (Before we even knew)Kid-friendliness: There were 2 children here, and they were content with what they were served.”

“Juancho's Birrieria offers an unforgettable dining experience, made even more exceptional by the outstanding service of Valeria and Yanaris on the front-end team. Their attentiveness and warmth enhanced our meal. And as for the Ramen Birria, it's simply the best I've ever tasted. The flavors were rich and authentic, leaving me craving more. A must-visit spot for foodies seeking top-notch service and exquisite cuisine!”

“Excellent food. Service was quick, unlike many Indian restaurants we have tried. This was a pleasant surprise. The staff was courteous, friendly, and well versed in the items they serve. The chicken vindaloo was scorching as it should be. The samosas are nice and flaky and well filled. This place is worthy of repeat business.”

“Glorious food!! Cooked to order and made with care. There is something for everyone on this menu!Located in a charming old building it has fantastic street parking and friendly staff.My vegan kids and I really enjoyed it, and the 2 non vegans with us were very surprised! Everything is wonderful! Cinnamon rolls and avocado toast were excellent. We were even given a carrot for my teething baby!Such a wonderful place!Vegetarian options: Everything is Vegan!Parking: Easy to find even on weekends!Kid-friendliness: Not a lot of things for them to knock over or break. High chairs available!”

“We’ve been here about 6 times for lunch during our stay in Florida. The loaded pork BBQ tater tots are beyond delicious (get the cheese on the side)-and it’s enough for 2 servings! My husband said BBQ brisket quesadilla is his fav (the photo shows the sandwich). The sweet tea is super sweet! The owner is usually walking around checking on customers which is a nice touch. If you only go to Eagle Lake for this place it’s worth the drive. And buy a bottle (or 3 ?) of the sweet BBQ sauce to take home!”

“The food was delicious and authentic. My family including the kids enjoyed every bite. The chicken kabobs and lamb gyros were delish. I also enjoyed the lentil soup and shwerma. It is a family run restaurant and everyone is so personable and friendly from the servers to the owners. Will definitely come ”

“I'm glad to write my review. From day one and every time we had the opportunity to stop in or get the food to go. It was a great experience. I figured out why the name is Family restaurant. LWFR has the ability to make you feel like that FAMILY. The owner is the most pleasant gentleman I've met. The service is outstanding. To top all this off us the Chefs/Cooks constantly create a delicious meal. Thanks LWFR.Kid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes”

“Four of us came here for dinner for the first time, and the food was outstanding Our servers, Stacy, and Bri Were top-notch. We would definitely come back here again The owner charged us five dollars for an extra scoop of vanilla ice cream, which was excessive but beyond that it was an amazing experience I may send him a gallon tub of Mayfields Just to make him feel bad. lol. I can’t wait to return.”

“Loved our food. Very clean and attractive restaurant. Menu was varied. Server was helpful and attentive. Ordered the veggie summer rolls with peanut sauce, red curry and green curry.”

“We've been trying to reserve a table at Arabellas for a few months, but they always seem booked up for dinner reservations. Today, we had our afternoon free and decided to see if they had lunch availability. Luckily, we were able to book a table.Unfortunately, the hostess who greeted us had an attitude and said she could seat us, but we had to hurry up and get our order in and be done eating in a timely manner. At this point, we almost said forget it and go somewhere else. Mind you, it was only 1:30, so it was not far past prime lunch hour, and they had the time available. This is what earned them a 3 for service.On the plus side, our waitress was super attentive, very professional, and the food was excellent, as you can see from the clean plate.”

“My best friend found this place and we finally found time to give it a try and it was an ABSOLUTE hidden gem!! Can’t believe there’s been a place like this here in Haines city! Service was great, the atmosphere was super welcoming and we enjoyed playing on the Xbox after we ate. Thank you for having us <3!”

“I flew here for a golf tournament and had to come here twice because the ice cream was so good. They’re very generous with their scoops and provide free samples. I love the expresso chip, strawberry cheesecake and Cupid’s love potion (it’s raspberry and brownie) flavors!! I really recommend bringing your friends here!!”

“Very good and wide selection of Dominican/Hispanic cuisine. The seating is nice and the service is easy and made to order. I always go for the Fried Pork with Tostones and Salad. Portions are very generous and very delicious. Would recommend!Very good selection of Bori/Dominican food. There are good spaces to sit and eat. The area is very pleasant and the service is excellent. My favorite dish is fried meat with tostones and salad. They have very good portions and have very good seasoning. I recommend them very highly!”

“The food was really outstanding. Unexpected for a small town in FL. The atmosphere is simple and pleasant. We started with the deviled eggs that had (cayenne I think) a smooth fill and a fragile greens salad as an accompaniment that made them very tasty. The pickled beet salad wasn't too pickled which brought out the natural flavor. My husband had a thick cut pork chop, prepared perfectly and topped with a traditional chimichurri (not easy to find outside or Miami). A sweet potato purée was an improvement vs. the usual apple flavors. Husband said I had to mention how good it was. I had a chicken piccata special on top of parmesan orzo. There was a little lemon or tang in the sauce. Not a grain remained. Staff was beyond accommodating and knowledgeable, they shared the brunch menu and we're already trying to determine dates when we can make the hour drive to revisit.”

“Great food, friendly service, and family atmosphere. Little awkward to get to because of the road beautification currently being done in Lake Wales. But just a temporary inconvenience. ?”

“Super, super delicious, I was visiting from Texas and I was delighted with their delicious food and the sauce. Not to mention, I'm a Mexican, if the sauce is rich and spicy I'll come back.”

“came from Miami wanted pizza but not from basic place, read the reviews from this place and gave it a shot.SUPER DELICIOUS pizza got the pepperoni & a hawaiian. 10/10 definitely recommend.”

“Waitress was in her own little world asked for ketsup had to go get it myself asked for a to go box after waiting 10 min went to get it myself and had to ask for my bill terrible ”

“Pretty good sandwich, tried the coleslaw from someone else’s review it’s pretty good the inside looks nice here is what I will say. I think the price is a little steep for what it was ($17) however I will still come back people who write bad reviews because of price make me unhappy because the quality of the food or the service to its customers has nothing to do with price (see above food quality service to customers and atmosphere) I don’t go around writing 1 star reviews to Gordon Ramsey restaurant because it’s overpriced but I would complain if the (quality) was not on par with price. That being said. Sorry I went on a rant just was reading past reviews”

“When I say I have this place at least 4 times a week I get the tuna salad on the mixed green salad and extra dressing and a side of mushroom soupAbsolutely my favorite ???”

“If you haven’t been to Latte Bakery & Restaurant yet then you are missing out. The menu is large, food is tremendous, and atmosphere is nice and clean. I got noodles with chicken and garlic sauce. My wife got a beef empanada and a chicken empanada. We shared loaded fries topped with pernil. I also tried their vanilla latte. Everything Excellent!! Check them out (across road from MJ’s Pizza)!”

“This place has the best birria ramen I've had in awhile. The drive is definitely worth it! Price is decent. The aqua fresca drinks are delicious. I had the watermelon sincec they were out for the other flavors but it was so good! I live in Lakeland but driving there is definitely worth it. The people there are very friendly and nice. It doesn't take long to make the orders either. It's located right outside a gas station. They don't have much for seating though so definitely plan to either eat it in the car or take home. I think they have like 1 table and a few chairs which is totally fine because the food was delicious!”
