The drinks were great and the food was soo good that we still talk about it days later. He loved the bone marrow. Steak was perfectly cooked, tender and juicy. The cake was not my favorite at all.

Two Words . . VERY…read moreRICH I keep forgetting that this restaurant is essentially serving Southern style comfort food in an upscale setting. Southern comfort food as a general rule just doesn't sit well with me anymore and I'm going to be very transparent and bare my soul a little bit here but here goes . . . Ever since being on GLP1's, I've developed a really complicated relationship with comfort food. Foods that are rich, buttery, creamy or fatty now hit me completely differently than they used to. It's almost like my body immediately goes into shutdown mode afterwards. I feel heavy, exhausted and like I've instantly ballooned even if the portions themselves aren't massive. For the longest time I honestly thought it was simply the richness of the food itself but now I realize it's because my digestion just can't process heavier comfort foods the same way anymore. Suddenly... it all makes sense. The food itself here is VERY good. Properly seasoned, well prepared, beautifully presented... absolutely no complaints there whatsoever. I simply have to become more mindful and strategic now with my menu selections no matter WHERE I dine. I chose the Creekstone Farm's NY Strip with the fabulous bone marrow which I KNOW is supposed to be incredibly nutrient rich and good for you... but honestly... it just about put me under afterwards. This dinner happened thanks to Ronnald M. and his sister Teris and it was our pre-opera dinner outing before seeing the fabulous Merry Widow at the Dr. Phillips Center. The Monroe is honestly a very good pre-concert restaurant choice because of both the atmosphere and location... I'm just personally learning that this new GLP1 reality means I can't approach menus the way I used to anymore.

Visited @ The Diner for a quick Orlando trip and I had an incredibly pleasant experience…read more The service and food were both equally impressive. I ordered the Papa's Burrito w/ egg, cheese, and avocado. I asked for extra fluffy scrambled eggs and they delivered perfection as the eggs were light and moist. This dish also comes with a side of potatoes. Additionally, my friend and I split a singular Boston Cream pancake and it was heavenly layered with vanilla custard, Nutella, whipped cream, and powdered sugar; perfect if you have a sweet tooth and/or are craving something good! I also got an iced vanilla latte on the side that really hit the spot. I would definitely recommend this spot if you're in Orlando, esp loading up before going to Disney.

This was one of those times... So. Much. Food. We walked in on a busy Saturday brunch, but still got immediately seated. My BLT Bloody Mary had enough toppings that I could literally make a sandwich out of it (so of course I did), and the cocktail was tasty too! We started with bite sized nuggets of biscuits served with a dusting of powdered sugar and a side of jam, but even if I had not, it's doubtful I could have a eaten much kore than half of the colossal breakfast that followed. The place was busy, but not overly loud and chaotic, just the din of a restaurant doing what or does best, make people happy.

This is one of the most friendly and welcoming businesses in central Florida, and I absolutely adore them for it. This place is counter order with full table service. I believe before the pandemic that you self served drinks, but the full service change has definitely been for the better. They've got a rotating list of specials that you can see on their instagram too. This place always delivers quality food. Their fried chicken is excellent, I've never seen an overcooked egg, their grits are amazing, their gravies are perfect, their biscuits are to die for, and their Mac n cheese is creamy delicious goodness. I haven't tried their lunch menu myself because I can't bring myself to not order breakfast. Between the Minnie pearl, three little pigs, seventh trimester, their specials, and even their sausage sandwich, nothing on a lunch menu could ever tempt me away. And don't even get me started on their bakery! Their bakery is a separate counter with cakes, cookies, handpies, brownies, and whoopie pies. Their selection is rotating and I've genuinely never been disappointed. Usually I have to take their stuff to go because I'm so full from breakfast, and it's usually pretty rich. This place is an Orlando staple and I hope they're open and successful for as long as they wish to be. I know I'll be back as long as they're still cooking.

Everyone working there walking around cleaning, serving food and being attentive to those who ask for something. Definitely a really good place to have a bit to eat with friends, family or just your honey. I know I'm always looking forward to eating there.

For the weekends when it's busy, you can add your name on the google waitlist before getting here so you didn't have to wait as long. Parking is easy. We will definitely be back and I highly recommend this place.

What I had was the fajita omelette. Needed salt and pepper and the salsa did the heavy lifting on the flavor of the omelette. My wife had the breakfast wrap and she even mentioned that she needed to add salt to it. The kids seemed to like their meal. So it wasn't a complete miss. But wish the food was hitting better for the experience to be a lot better.

Although my wife's peach sangria might have been the better choice Our server, Alyssa, could teach a masterclass on serving!

When I walk in here, I genuinely feel like I'm with my neighbors. It's a very welcoming environment. I often visit homecomin and sit at the bar, but the other day I managed to snag a reservation and was excited to take my boyfriend who hadn't been. Their menu has changed a bit in the last 6 years, but their fried chicken has stayed amazing. I got the fried chicken entree with some bacon (added at my request) Mac n cheese. I was not let down, they did an excellent job. I don't usually eat fried chicken, but this place always delivers. My boyfriend ordered the pot roast (which I believe is relatively new), and it was very good, although it was a little dry on the inside, but when we told our server he took it very seriously and said he'd relay it back to the kitchen. The manager was also walking around table to table, asking if there was anything anyone needed. We also got drinks which, as always, were very good. I'll be coming back to this place for a very long time, and I'm excited to see what other menu items the introduce in the future!

Sofrito was amazing…read more We wanted something fast, but not fast food with a large seated area outside. This checked off all of our boxes. You order at a kiosk fast food style, but all of the food is then prepared freshly and authentically. They have a huge menu with all kinds of delicious Latin eats like sandwiches and platters. We absolutely loved our Cuban sammies which came on thick and sweet bread. My kids kept it simple with tenders and fries and also enjoyed! They have a big drink selection and you can find everything from juices to fresh cocktails. The biggest hit was their large indoor screened patio - perfect for my kids to run around. If you want to avoid fast food but also don't feel like taking your kids to a proper sit down restaurant than this is a really great option.

The interior kinda has a hipster-rustic vibe but with more comfortable chairs. Prices seemed reasonable. Service seemed a bit overwheled but again, I think the massive event letting out had something to do with that. I got a cheese board, truffled fries, fried chicken caviar, and a deviled affogato for dessert. My date for the creste di gallo and the olive oil citrus cake. Everything was was very good, with the standout being the fries; I know that truffle essence flavor isn't for everyone but it worked really well for me in the fry sauce. My dates pasta was also very good, the pesto sauce was zesty and complimented it well. And I really like the olive oil cake with mascarpone, super light and perfectly sweet. The very minor issues were that the fried chicken was pretty deeply fried and way harder than expected, which I don't mind but may not be your thing. Devil's food cake at the bottom of the affogato was also not as sweet as I would have liked. Overall a really enjoyable experience. Would definitely recommend.

She requested if they could make her a Chunky Chicken Salad sandwich, rather than the salad on the menu. They obliged and even gave her a Bleu Cheese Caesar salad on the side. Briarpatch knows how to impress as well as cater to the needs of the customer! I ordered one of my favorites, the Brown Rice Bowl and it was fresh and more than filling for lunch. Various flavored mimosas were enjoyed also. I went again last week with local friends as all three of us enjoy this place (and its mimosas!!) One friend tried the Chunky Chicken Salad on the menu (seasonal fruits and berries with zucchini bread sandwiches) and commented on the presentation (which Briarpatch is also well known for) and the freshness of the fruit. She especially enjoyed the zucchini sandwiches! Her husband ordered the Roast Beef Sandwich as it is one of his favorites on the menu. He devoured every bite of it and was very pleased with the tenderness of the beef and the flavor of the au jus. I ordered the Short Rib Benedict as I eyed it a few weeks back. It did not disappoint! Plenty of shredded, perfectly cooked short rib was on a bed of crispy hash browns. Two poached eggs covered in hollandaise sauce sat nicely on top of this amazing dish. It was heaven! Based on the above, I trust you can understand why I love this place. Outdoor seating, exemplary service each and every time I visit and food that is picture-perfect and tastes outstanding. What more could you ask for?! I highly recommend the Briarpatch!

They have brunch specials, there was this sausage hasbrown egg sandwich which came with home fries & it was super crispy as well. Side of hash-browns were also super crispy and delish. Fried tomatoes are a must try here if you like tomatoes, it comes with a side of a cilantro sauce.. California Benedict is also a great choice the Hollandaise sauce on top was delish.
