With how popular this spot is, I'm honestly surprised they don't have someone helping guide new customers through the ordering process. Even when ordering online, the atmosphere can feel pretty loud and hectic because of the crowds. That said, the food is amazing! I truly wish them the best because they definitely have something special. They just need to find a better way to manage the flow of customers and make the overall experience a little smoother.

We've been coming here for the better part of 10 years. Seriously, this place is fantastic. Today we came in just after the lunch rush. And what makes me write a review after all this time is because The Reuben has been added to their sandwich lineup. I am a sucker for a good Reuben. I love some of the various versions out there like a Grouper Reuben or a Turkey Reuben but there is nothing like an original. The bread is their marble rye which was already freakin fantastic; patty melts are phenomenal here. The ratio of corned beef and sauerkraut was spot on perfect. Don't you just hate it when it's out of balance? The cheese was perfectly melted and the dressing was oh so good. It was sandwich heaven. My apologies for having no pictures. I don't know if I was especially hungry today or what, but when the food hit the table the hubs and I dove straight in.

We finally got a table to share with other people. My Mom and my older brother Bill ordered the Corned Beef and Cabbage. They said the Corned Beef was pretty good, but the Cabbage was tough and not good. My brother Jonathan ordered the Pancake special with sausage and home fries. They didn't warn him that the pancakes would be green, lol. We thought it was pretty funny, but he said they didn't taste that good. He loved the rest of his breakfast. I had the French toast and bacon with hashbrowns and scrambled eggs. I loved the French toast and bacon, but didn't like the hashbrowns and eggs. It was really hit or miss. The restaurant didn't seem very clean either. We had fun anyway.

It was a Saturday and I forgot the market was going on so it was a bit busy but always worth the wait. Honestly, I didn't think there would be any left the way the Line was looking, but luckily when I got to the front, they still had carrot cake left. I ordered a slice and waited patiently for my name to be called. Once it was ready, I picked it up and it was already made for to go, but I decided to eat in house. This carrot cake is so unbelievably delicious. It's filled with pineapples, walnuts, and everything you could dream of. Will always be my favorite!

Believed to be a "Scratch Kitchen", this amazing find has a menu that I find myself excited about returning to try. We ordered a drink and an order of the Frescos Egg Rolls. The drink was spot on and the Egg Rolls amazing. We opted not to order a main course due to eating just a couple hours prior but I knew right then and there that I'd be back to try other selections from the menu. Pricing seems to be below average with "happy hour" pricing at specified times daily. Highly Recommended!

The coffee is solid, and the café is in a great downtown location that's perfect for starting your morning or taking a break while exploring the area. If you're looking for a one-stop shop for both breakfast and coffee, look no further. We absolutely love this place and will keep coming back whenever we're in town.

It's located in a nondescript building that's basically one large dining room with a bar in the back. Since we got there at the top of the lunch hour, it was not busy so we were served very quickly.

They are made with shaved pieces of pork topped with lettuce, Muenster cheese, honey mustard, and pickles. The taste of all that together is excellent. If you are in the area, this is an excellent choice for a good lunch!

The bagels are the star here. I regularly get the Bagel Deal (13 Bagels & 1 Pound of Cream Cheese) to treat my team at work. The sandwiches and desserts are also very delicious. The quality of the food has been consistent on every visit. My go to item is the Sliced Salmon (Lox) and this is what I ordered on my most recent visit. A soft nicely doughy everything bagel had a nice saltiness and garlic flavor. The bagel was filled with super decadent cream cheese, cool meaty salmon, tangy capers, crisp onions & lettuce, and juicy tomato. The mix of flavors and textures is just mouthwatering.

However, this time, our financial advisor invited us to dinner. He lives in St. Petersburg and drove all the way to this restaurant, since we live in Bartow. We were given the opportunity to sample a Prosecco, which was absolutely delicious. It had a refreshing apple crisp flavor. We ordered various drinks, including a spicy margarita and a Japanese highball. My husband opted for his usual drink, which wasn't on the menu, while I ended up enjoying a Mojito coconut flavor. As an appetizer, we tried a crab dip that was incredibly tasty. If I ever return, I'll definitely bring my mother along and we'll indulge in this delicious dip. I had read the menu beforehand and knew what I wanted. I ordered the salmon red curry dish, which was quite good. However, I felt that the red curry lacked much flavoring. Nevertheless, the salmon was cooked to perfection, and they had these adorable little red berries that added a delightful touch to the dish. While I didn't particularly enjoy the red curry, I still thoroughly enjoyed the meal. My husband ordered steak, but I'm not sure what he got. The other guy ordered chicken and rice, and I can't recall what the third person ordered. They all ordered coffee. I had a satisfying meal and decided to take a crème brûlée to go. I was so full. The other two guys enjoyed a Keylime pie and a bread pudding, which they both found delicious. Overall, we had a wonderful time at this restaurant. The service was excellent, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the place was clean and well-maintained. I can't wait to return with my mother or perhaps a friend visiting from out of town.
