I was recently visiting family for a wedding in Orlando, and haven't been to Yellow dog in years. I used to eat here all the time when I lived in Orlando. I am glad to say it hasn't changed and is still amazing. The service is great and the atmosphere is laid back and relaxing.

Food was excellent. I had the Cubano sandwich with the cucumber, onion and tomato salad. Would definitely go back. Really laid back atmosphere. Really enjoyed it.

We have been coming here for a while now and I don’t know what has changed but the Steaks have been ABSOLUTELY delicious! Whatever you all have done different with the steaks please keep at it! They are cooked to prefect and look great too!

If you're looking for an irreverent, pulled pork focused restaurant with some amazing dishes, this is your place. It's been around for a million years, and it'll probably be around for a million more. Everything on the menu is tasty in its own way, and won't disappoint.On my most recent visit, I tried the nachos, which was a massive pile of tortilla chips, covered with black beans, jalapenos, pickled onions, queso, BBQ sauce, scallions, sour cream, and a gigantic pile of pulled pork. It was enough that my girlfriend and I shared it.She ordered the Elvis, which was a pulled pork sandwich on a soft Kaiser roll, topped with bacon, thick sliced (I think Muenster) cheese, and fried onions? I forget, but wow was it incredibly tasty! My girlfriend liked it so much, she already asked about going back.Parking: Most of the parking is in the back, enter to the left of the restaurant to find the lots.

I grew up in west Orange County Florida, very close to Yellow Dog Eats. I've been eating at YDE since I was in high school (20 years) and I've seen it expand over the years. The restaurant is in a historic home that was built in 1910, right in downtown Gotha. The place is quirky; photos of customers dogs cover the walls along with names/messages graffitied in sharpie, chickens hang out in the trees out front, a cat named "Montel" wanders about the property and even has his own mailbox. Since the restaurant first opened, they've expanded the seating to upstairs, they opened a bar inside, and they've majorly updated the patio area. They've also opened another location. The food has been consistently amazing throughout the years; offering a variety of sandwiches, salads, BBQ, sides, and desserts. Everything is home made, and mouthwateringly fantastic. Chef/owner Fish Morgan is very involved and super friendly. He takes time out to speak with every guest when he is in the restaurant (which is more often than not). The staff is always friendly and helpful. You order at a counter, located right inside the front entrance, and receive a buzzer that goes off when your order is ready. I've never had to wait more than a few minutes for anything. Since I moved out of state 9 years ago, I've missed the whole YDE experience; the food, the people, the ambiance. When I returned to the area to visit for a few days, this is the first place I went after leaving the airport. Over the years, I've tried a lot of the menu and have loved every single thing. This time, I ordered the Florida Cracker sandwich and my friend ordered the Fire Pig wrap, both were incredible and tasted the same as I remembered. I truly miss living 10 minutes down the road from YDE, it's probably one of my favorite restaurants of all time. Me

I had the vegetarian tacos. They were excellent. I can't wait to go back I went with 5 of my friends. Everybody enjoyed their meal. It was really nice. Excellent food and friendly staff.Vegetarian options: There were 3 different entrepreneurs for vegetarians. Two word tacos. I had the sweet potato tacos. They were excellent.
Love this place! Best indoor/outdoor restaurant vibe in the area. The food is absolutely delicious (highly recommend the avocado hummus and sweet potato tacos) and the service is amazing. I've seen the owner walking around the few times I've been and he's just such a nice guy. The workers there are also friendly and always seem like they are having a good time. If you're looking for a neat, unique lunch experience, this is the place to go.
The food is amazing and the restaurant is pet friendly so would definitely recommend bringing your dog

Can say enough good things about this place other than wish we had one in Tampa. It's my go to whenever in Orlando and have yet to have a bad meal. It's a bit off the beaten path which is probably a good thing because it would be tough to get a table if it were in town.

Folks, the food here is some of the best in Orlando. Great tasting BBQ, that’s more than just BBQ. The atmosphere at this historic place is only surpassed by its outstanding customer service! THIS is a “family” restaurant, to be sure. The salads are fresh. The pork? Tenderly pulled and cooked to near perfection. And you MUST see their desert glass fridge!!!!! Talk about a selection?!!?The food. The place. The people. Top notch!! You’ll be hard pressed to find anywhere better! We came from Clermont. We WILL be back here again.Be sure to stop in and talk to Matt, the manager! He sets a very high bar for chest tasting food and no nonsense customer service!Kid-friendliness: Even though they have a bar for adults to sit and relax, drink an adult beverage, this is for a family with kids.
