Although this is simply a breakfast restaurant that mainly serves breakfast sandwiches, biscuits, and coffee, the biscuits are so amazing here that I truly feel it is worth a visit!

My go-to order is usually the BLT and cheese tots, and they never miss. They have multiple locations, but the Winter Park location is definitely my favorite. I love that Trader Joe's is right around the corner, so I can grab a snack, do a little shopping, and enjoy the scenery of Winter Park all in one trip. If you're looking for a great breakfast spot with fresh food, friendly service, and a good atmosphere, I definitely recommend giving Rise a try!

But I had an urge to find some fried chicken that is lightly battered and this place hit the spot. Located just off of Park Avenue and Fairbanks is The Hen & Hog. Got a 6 piece fried chicken anf a few sides which consisted of mac and cheese, fries and a pickled slaw. Juicy freshly fried and ever so gently battered chicken that was crisp with every bite. Definitely some tasty chicken. I really liked the slaw that had garlic onions celery and some other items but it cut through the savoriness of the chicken. Yes, i ate all of it to the bone. Wife also got chicken and waffles which she thoroughly enjoyed. Also had fried banana peppers with a pimento spread. Pretty nice combination. Staff was super helpful. They also have wings with a lot of great sauces to try. That will be my order for next time. Cant wait to come back.

The inside of the restaurant was cute. I really enjoyed the live stream of the cows grazing in the fields. The rustic vibe fit the brand great. It only took a short while to get our food. My cuban was great. The bread was nicely toasted. The meat was extremely juicy on the sandwich. My friend enjoyed the taste of her burger. We both thought the fries had nice crispiness. There were several families enjoying lunch inside while we were in here. I saw they had a brunch menu and think in my next visit I want to experience the chicken and waffles I keep hearing about.

Seems to have a lot of regulars dropping by for carry-out orders. Service was excellent - very nice people. Reasonable prices, but portions are fairly small. Ordered the "best chicken in town", - the chickens are very small, and the 1/4 chicken breast I had was noticeably dry. The seasonings and flavor are very good though. But I have much better from any Peruvian chicken place. Had the zucchini in tomato sauce as one side an it was outstanding. Pasta salad was average. Pita bread seemed dry. Hummus was very good. Potatoes had great flavor but also a little dry. Rice pudding dessert was very tasty. Overall I was disappointed because I had hoped this might become a go-to spot for me to hit regularly but unfortunately I cannot imagine a scenario where I'd make the effort to go back.

There is lots of tables inside and gives a cozy vibe. I ordered the 3 tenders with waffle fries. I had the chicken tossed in Sweet Gochujang sauce. THEY ARE PHENOMENAL. Chickfila, who?! You really can't beat the crispiness and flavor. The flavor is out the park. The tenders are huge and I had to take one home with me. Everyone at the table loved their food and talked about how fresh everything tasted. I think we got the crowd approval for a lunch spot in the rotation. Thank you for also be so consistent with food and sevice!

We waited maybe 10 minutes for the food since we got their early. My wrap was PACKED with chicken and really flavorful. I enjoyed the slaw inside and the chicken itself had good crispiness to it. I did wish the wrap was a tad saucier. My boyfriend enjoyed the tenders. 1 order of fries came with alot and plenty to share between 2 people. We ended up getting a to-go box for half my wrap, a tender, and some fries. The food is definitely plentiful and worth the cost. I really liked the location, service, and quality of the food. I plan on coming back real soon!

I ordered their chicken sando, which came topped with slaw, pickles and their house sauce. I liked that they have 5 different levels of heat to choose from so you really are able to customize the spice to your tolerance. The chicks itself was juicy, crispy, and packed with flavor as all the toppings balanced it out nicely. The price did feel a bit steep for $16 for a sandwich with no side included. It is definitely a large sandwich so you will not be leaving hungry. I do think a side or slightly lower price point would make it a better value. Overall solid food and great flavor.

I could eat them plain and be just as happy. My service was alright, but the rest of the group were not happy about theirs. Some strange and judgmental looks were exchanged. They were also a bit pushy when it came to purchasing drinks. Both of our cashiers asked at least 3 times if we wanted drinks and then acted like us getting water was an abomination. Not sure why wanting water is such a surprise, especially when you're eating spicy food. Will I be coming back to Dave's? Probably. To this location? Maybe not.
