Comfort Food Restaurants near Lake Buena Vista, FL

“Loved the American Kitchen Bar and Grill near Disney Springs in Orlando! The burger was a so bomb - everything fresh and made to order. The restaurant's ambiance is beautiful. They’re remodeling the property, but the restaurant is already complete. Definitely worth it if you’re at the hotels. Great service, and kudos to Chad, the bartender, for creating a great vibe for lunch.“

“? THE Place to go when you need your Mac & Cheese Fix! ?It's guilty pleasure food--so why not dedicate an entire food truck to it? You know you want it!The Mac & Cheese Food Truck offers a variety of fun flavors. I chose the Six-Cheese Crunchy Mac & Cheese, which is a creamy combination of--you guessed it--six different cheeses topped with Cheeto puffs. They also offer Lobster/Shrimp, Bacon Cheeseburger, BBQ Brisket, and Chicken Parmesan mac & cheese options.Service is reasonably fast and very friendly. It's a fun place to stop for lunch when you feel like indulging your inner child's favorite food with an adult, gourmet twist.“

“We were visiting from Atlanta and had heard about this place and decided to check it out. Hubs is a big car guy. We were not disappointed!! Atmosphere was super cool, food was fantastic and service was fantastic. Daniel was our server and if we'd be back any time soon we'd for sure ask to sit in his section. Definitely check this place out!!Dietary restrictions: Lots of gluten free options and substitutions.Kid-friendliness: Great kids selection“

“Our server- I think her name was Aubrina- was AMAZING! So sweet, funny, and very thorough! She played a guessing game with our kids and they loved her! Food was great, service was great throughout each part- FOH & BOH. We enjoyed every second, but definitely wanted to give our server her credit where credit is due!“

“Arrived here for breakfast after reading the high reviews. Took us several wrong doors to find the front entrance. There was no line to order, and the staff was very friendly! My husband and I both got vanilla maple lates (pictured here - mine iced) which were tasty and we only waited a minute for! He ordered the Cowboy, I ordered the Farmer. The wait for our food was a little longer, 20ish minutes. One of the staff told us they ran out of cooked chicken and had to make more. The crowd inside was pretty chaotic as people ordered and waited for their food as the staff yelled out names and orders. When we finally got our food (pictured), mine was delicious - the sweet apple butter complimented the crispy chicken and savory bacon and cheddar. Unfortunately, the steak on my husbands sandwich was very chewy and not very good, but otherwise the sandwich was just ok. Overall this place was okay but i think id try other breakfast options in the area next time.“

“My hubby and I stopped her for a few apps. The food was delicious and the service was fantastic! Our server was wonderful and recommended the shrimp app. It was a bit spicy, but perfect. There are so many options of cuisines. We will absolutely be back.“

“Georgia and Jenny are absolute life savers. My dog was choking on a biscuit (bojangles) I gave him and Georgia and Jenny rushed to action to save him. I owe these 2 lovely women everything after saving my dearest dog. Thank you so much.Parking: N/A“

“We love Maple Street Biscuit Company! Is has become one of our family's favorites! Their biscuits and jam are mouth watering, we also love the chicken and waffles, and the smashbrowns! Very friendly staff, even with the busier stressful times.“

“Why this restaurant doesnt have a 5 star rating is beyond me! I have been eating here since it opened and the food and staff have always been phenomenal!We ate dinner from The Kitchen two nights during our recent stay, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals! The first night we split the short rib pasta...thank goodness...it was amazing and the portion size filled us both up! The meat was so tender and cooked to perfection! On our last night we stopped in after a full day at the parks with our 4 year old grandson. It was perfect once again! Chicken tender and fries for him, smothered pork chop with glazed carrots and mashed potatoes with a delicious mushroom gravy for me, and the skirt steak with duck fat fingerling potatoes for my husband! Everything was delicious, we had enough leftovers for lunch the next day, and our server, Jake was fantastic! He even brought out a complimentary donut sundae for the birthday boy! Can't wait to stop in for dinner again in April!Kid-friendliness: The servers were great with our grandson! A nice menu for k8ds, and the kids can make their owndinner on certain nights....a pizza or quesadilla!“

“I absolutely love this place! From the time my husband and I came through the door we were greeted with a smile and hospitality! We ordered the five and dime! Oh my goodness it was Amazing! And...after our meal the cook Julie, came out and greeted us with such joy! She told us about the grits bowl(which we will try next time). I am telling EVERYONE about This Place!“

“This was my 1st time dining at a Cheddars! I must say the quality and overall atmosphere lived up to its name. I ordered the Chicken mushroom honey Dijon entree & my boyf ordered the Smokehouse Burger and it was good n ‘juicy. Props to our server Kiki she was great ?“

“Cheddar's did me right... we took a group of students and the food was great. Only one issue, one meal never came out. That table had appetizers and extra croissants, so they didn't notify us till we were about to leave. We got it to go, then said student lost her phone under her napkin...“

“If you're in the area I would definitely put this on your radar and make sure to get to it... Such original menu choices.Any of the small plate appetizers are amazing as well as the side dishes.We had a decent-sized party and we sampled a little bit of everythingThe braised short ribs were absolutely amazing with a blended sauce that they use It's absolutely incredible.Excellent service as well from the hostess right to the wait staff so attentive and so on top of things.Just being a little leery of the valet parking situationThe restaurant does validate parking but sometimes the valet people try and make look like they're doing you a big favor by hooking you up and keeping your car close by which I can understand it is a bit of a walk to the parking lot for them...I always tip very well regardless, So I told the valet people don't worry about it I'll make sure it's up you as well... The way it came off was like you were doing you a favor by letting you valet and not charging you lol..Again excellent excellent service and incredible menu choices“

“First time coming here and it was pretty good. Our waitress maria was super helpful and guided my party of 10 through the menu. The place is very popular so it was definitely packed.The food was pretty good, i got hot cakes, bacon, and eggs but i felt like it was out for a bit. overall great experience.“

“What I loved most was the croissants. Nothing was terribly bad, but it's a scratch kitchen so they say it takes longer and supposedly our waitress had more tables than usual and we had a party of 7. The tables are pretty close so we were bumping and being bumped with coming and going. So it was good but not great for me. And we got there for 5 on a Saturday just before rush trying to avoid crowding but that's not their set up for tables so it didn't matter. Oh and just an FYI shrimp comes with tails on for the meals, if that bothers you.“

“2 of us went for lunch yesterday. The food and the service was good so we did not mind the added 20% gratuity. HOWEVER, our server told us she did not get any of the gratuity, she only receives any additional money left above the gratuity amount. We added more money to the tip but thought this was not right so on our way out we asked the girls in the front who gets the gratuity and they said it is split among them all. It is not right for the server to lie like that. So Beware!“

“Great happy hour from 2 to 6. $2 off of draft beers and cocktail. Well drinks $4.50. Reasonable prices. They informed us at the desk that they add a 20% service charge in lieu of a tip. You can add more if you want but not required. It was on the total without the tax. The service was very good. The hamburger was a little on the small side but tasted great.“

“What a cool place! The garage doors can open up and they have a great covered outdoor seating area. There is an old Ford over the bar. They have a private room for parties as well. The food is absolutely awesome!!! The nachos are one of the best nachos I have ever had. The desserts look great but I’m all the time I have been there, I have never been able to get to that portion of the menu, because I am stuffed!!I highly recommend! The staff has always been great and attentive.Kid-friendliness: Have a great kids menuWheelchair accessibility: Plenty of wheelchair accessibility.“
