Pros: Ambiance is nice and chill. Good artwork on the wall. Very roomy dining room. Service was also nice and chill. Very friendly people behind the counter. Very quick wait times for the food. The food itself was amazing. This is the premiere place in Orlando for smash burgers. Exceptional patties, perfect topping ratio, and a soft bun with just the right amount of butteriness. Cons: No real cons. There's not one in Oviedo, that's a con. Lol. Tips: You NEED to get the Kwame B's Secret Rub Fries. Trust me. The best fries I've had in literally years.

Burgers were DELICIOUS. Fries were meh. I was expecting more from the secret rub fries, but they pretty much taste it like barbecue potato chips in terms of flavoring. Everything was cooked fresh to order. AGAIN... THE BURGERS WERE BOMB! My one complaint is that I ordered online and when I got there, I decided to order wings as well. So while waiting for my burger, I ordered wings. I asked if I could have my other food while I waited for my wings and they hadn't even started my burgers. They had forgotten to check the machine for incoming orders I suppose. So that irked me a bit because I had a sleeping four year-old waiting in the car with my sick pregnant girlfriend. However, the customer service from the time I got there was great...so I cut them some slack. The wings LOOKED amazing, but I probably wouldn't get them again. They lacked flavor and seasoning. Now I am a bit of a wing connoisseur lol... so maybe for somebody else they are sufficient. But it's a no for me. Also they are very picky about splitting flavors and will not allow you to split flavors on anything lower than a 20 piece which is nuts. Restaurant looked clean and well kept but we did take our food to go. I would return for the burger alone but skip the fries, wings, and drinks.

Love a good burger!!! Great little place - you self order at the counter and they make and bring your order to you! The art on the walls were super cool and very on theme. Definitely get the doc and the Cajun fries !

What! What?! This place is the bomb! We love these smash burgers so much! Crispy, flavorful and packed with toppings you can choose. These fries are spectacular too. Excellent service, great music and vibes, perfect for the whole crew.

Double Double smashburger and fries

Super friendly, easy parking, and great food! I got the Double Double and it was fantastic! Super juicy, big portion, meaty cheese, and great bun. Nothing not to like. The crinkle fries were also on point. Crispy and crunchy just how I like them. The root beer was a nice addition. The staff was super friendly and welcoming. They also have a wing menu but I didn't get to try them this trip. I will definitely be back though.

I've been to Cow & Cheese before for a burger and it was really delicious so for this visit I decided to try the wings. When walking into Cow & Cheese I was greeted by a friendly worker who explained the menu to me. Once I figured out my selection I made my way to the kiosk and placed my order. While waiting for my food to be brought to me I sat in the large dinning area and listened to the old school hip hop they were playing. Once I received my food I opened my boxes and the food was so hot smoke was billowing out. The fries and wings were perfectly crisp. I got my wings tossed in Buffalo honey sauce and it was delicious. I also got a side of ranch and it tasted fresh and homemade, one of the best sides of ranch I've had. The wings were also a good size, nice and meaty, not too big and not too small. They also have really good prices for wings, so delicious wings at a reasonable price is always a win in my book. Can't wait to come back and try some of the other wing sauces.

Cos & Cheese makes a tasty burger and fries. It's definitely a greasy smash burger spot, and they do that well, but it's heavy and a bit pricey for what you get. The food tends to linger with you afterward. The people who work there are always great and genuinely friendly. The atmosphere is fine, just a little thrown together, like a food truck testing out a brick and mortar space. Love its independent vibes but feels like something is missing.

I have been going to Cow and Cheese when I crave smash burgers for a bit. The ordering process is quick and easy and it's a plus that the employees are right there if you have questions. I got a regular smash burger with 2 patties. The burger was good but it was a little over cooked. I think this is just how they prepare their burgers because others I've had from this restaurant have been pretty much been the same. All in all, I like the food here and will continue to frequent to satisfy my burger cravings.

Unfortunately I was not a fan of Cow & Cheese. Seems like it could've been a good smash burger if they cooked it. I ordered The Doc with lettuce and tomato today, the long wait seemed promising to a good meal, but unfortunately the lettuce and tomato was not added and my burger meat was quite literally almost FULLY raw. I will say the team was pretty efficient in getting orders out with the wait they had, but at the price of receiving missing ordered toppings raw meat.. I would've taken the longer wait time. I don't see myself returning to this location, which is unfortunate because I wanted to love it, but unfortunately I also cannot recommend this place to anyone. (p.s. I've posted photos on the meat but I don't think they are loading, unfortunate.)

I have found my new favorite Burger spot. I was in the area for business and decided to stop by to get a burger. The service was great. They greeted me at the door. The manager came over to help explain the menu options. I was able to decide which burger I wanted. The order was done via touch screen order and cash-less payment. I ordered the Triple Cow x Triple Cheese with French Fries. I enjoyed every inch of that burger. The 3 layers of meat, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles and the CC sauce. The fries were delicious too. This place was a vibe. The art on the walls was dope. The music was on point. I can see myself showing up here at least once a week!

Decor
Janelle L.

The burgers here are really really good. But even à la cart a burger alone will set you back $8 without any frills. All the employees here are great and very helpful with special requests. My son wants a plain burger and he absolutely loved it. Ate every single bite. The decor is all hand drawn and very unique. There is plenty of seating in the place. The music we heard in the place had some lyrics I didn't necessarily want my 9 year old to hear (shake ya a**) and it was good and loud but he didn't seem to notice but I would be mindful hanging out in the dining room if you are sensitive to that kind of stuff. It definitely fits the theme of the restaurant. GREAT food however.

Great selection of Irish beers, which we ordered a round of. When it was time to order, our only problem was that everything sounded good, so it was hard to choose. I ended up with the steak & mushroom pie and paid the up charge for Irish brown bread. The crust was flaky and delicious and there were huge chunks of beef in the pie. The Irish brown bread was very good and just like the brown bread I had daily when visiting Ireland. Others in my group got the Irish stew, the steak & ale pie, and the cottage pie, and there were no complaints. We then ordered the Guinness chocolate cake for dessert, which was so moist and tasty! Service was friendly and the pub is warm and cozy, but there is also outdoor seating, if that's your jam. I'd definitely go again when back in the area!

Claddagh Cottage has some of the richest and most flavorful stews in town, if not the best. I've visited several times now and I just never really feel like I'm terribly welcome, and that's probably just because we've always been on busy nights and I'm most likely not getting the folks there on their best days. The pub is well furnished, has darts to be played and Magners on draft. You don't need a whole lot more but they still go further and often have a great set of musicians playing live to help really bring the atmosphere together. I wouldn't go expecting to feel terribly invited, but you WILL leave happy with the food. Try the chips and chutney, they're super tasty!

Stopped by here the other day with my family. I had been craving Long John Silver's. This was my…read morefirst job as a kid so I have a fondness for the nostalgia. We were in the area at Freshfield's so I figured, why not. Let's start by, I was not expecting much for a chain restaurant. They were both KFC and LJS. From the moment we walked in, the customer service was amazing and so friendly. I am extremely into cleanliness so it was great to see the employees constantly hand washing. Now the food. We told the cook how far we traveled to get the food and he did not disappoint. My food was so fresh it burnt me. I love hot and fresh food. My daughter got KFC and that also did not disappoint. I got the 3 pc fish meal with fries and hushpuppies. Do not sleep on this location for a quick bite and tip the staff if they provide a great experience. We enjoyed ours.

Dear Customer Service,…read more I am writing to formally express my disappointment regarding my recent visit to Long John Silver's - Michigan Ave. After craving your food for over a year, I finally made the trip to this location and unfortunately had a very negative experience. The customer service I received both at the speaker box and at the window was disappointing. However, what concerned me most was the quality of the food. I spent approximately $25 on my meal and drink. Everything tasted as though it had been cooked in old oil and left sitting out. There were burnt pieces of fryer debris on both my fish and chicken. The corn was hard and dried out, and although the coleslaw tasted fine, it was warm. I attempted to eat the meal but ultimately had to throw it away due to the poor quality. It is one thing to experience unsatisfactory customer service, but serving food that is not fresh or properly prepared will certainly result in lost customers. I kept my receipt and would like to request a full refund for this purchase. Please let me know the next steps required to resolve this matter. I look forward to your prompt response. Sincerely,Jamarcus Jennings

Lisa the bartender was welcoming and served with a smile. They are a beer and wine establishment as an FYI. Started with oysters on the half shell which came from the Chesapeake Bay and Lisa shucked them in front of me. The rock shrimp were good but would have preferred them to be deveined but that is my preference. Was wanting a little more food and ordered 6 hot garlic wings that finished the meal perfectly. After a couple of beers and friendly conversation with others at the bar it was time to leave. Will for sure go back when in the mood for seafood and bar food and to watch a game.

Unfortunately, the best parts of the meal were the free bread basket at the beginning and our server, who was fantastic from start to finish. The menu had us genuinely excited. Blue crab sweet potato hash sounds like a can't-miss brunch dish, but it arrived surprisingly flat on flavor and desperately needed seasoning. I kept waiting for the "wow" moment that matched the description, and it just never came. The shrimp and grits landed in a similar spot. Not bad by any means, but also not memorable. For a seafood-focused restaurant in Florida, I expected something with a little more personality and punch. The biggest challenge is that the prices set expectations pretty high. With a great staff, a cool concept, and an intriguing menu, I wanted to love it. Instead, I left feeling underwhelmed and wishing the food had lived up to the promise on the page. I'm not sure if there is another visit in my future, especially with the myriad of other great options.

To my surprise, I was disappointed by the food. I got the loaded frings and a 5 x 5 burger. I believe the burger is relatively new, since it wasn't on any of the pictures of their menu on Google. Ambiance: The staff was friendly enough and I do like the fact that you can see them cooking the burgers in front of you. However, looking around at the restaurant, it looks like there was no upkeep. There were broken tiles, tables weren't cleaned, and I believe there might have been mold when I was filling my water cup at the ice machine, like visibly on the spout. Food: Loaded frings- I'm not sure how you mess this one up, but they somehow did it. The fries were overcooked and the bacon was fried to hell. I think you can actually see how burnt the bacon was in the pictures. It tasted like charcoal. Lastly, the fries were completely soaked in cheese sauce, which I'm guessing was from a can. It tasted like the cheese you'd have at state fairs, except more watery. There was more sauce than fries and onion rings! I should have taken a picture after eating half of the fries. I could not eat the bottom half of the frings because it was all soggy Burger- the same cooked-to-hell bacon was used on the burger. Not much else need to say about that. Looking at the picture of the burger, you'd think that the patties were way overcooked as well. That was not entirely the case. The patties weren't extra dry, but they weren't as juicy as I would have liked a burger to be. I'd say it was just okay. Maybe a half step below average. I really wanted to like this place, but I wasn't able to. I'm not sure if I came by on an odd day, because the reviews say otherwise. I really hope management can fix these issues.
