my food
Jeffrey L.

Such a great home'ee place. Sundays here are normally my time to go but went today and was very satisfied. They have kept their prices very affordable and the food at it's best

Chocolate chip pancakes, egg whites, bacon, hashbrowns

Met my daughter for a late breakfast. Cute homestyle place with ample parking. Pricing is very reasonable. I got perfectly cooked over medium eggs, potato pancakes (comes with sour cream and applesauce on the side) and rye toast. My daughter got chocolate chip pancakes (huge), egg whites, bacon, and hashbrowns. So many choices!! They serve breakfast & lunch and there was a steady stream of folks cycling thru. It is far from us normally, but my daughter was dog sitting near there. Would go again if in that area. Enjoy!!

Breakfast sandwich and chicken club. Look at the hugh amount of potatoes!

They greed you right away. And seated us right away as well. Family friendly atmosphere. Our server Janet was on the spot. Enormous amount of food. Coffee was endless. We chose a brunch type meal. Me the breakfast sandwich with sourdough bread, YUM. My friend the chicken salad club. We took half of each home because the portions were so big. If your looking for Breakfast or Lunch this is the place.

Second time dining at Golden Bear restaurant for breakfast and it was excellent as usual!! I ordered the western omelette with home-fried potatoes, side of white toast and a side of grits. Everything was cooked perfectly!!! Grits are awesome!! Food came out hot and in good time!! Service was great as well!! Cool decorations around the interior and was not too loud with the amount of people eating there.

Ham, mushroom, & cheese omelet with hash browns and a biscuit
Alyssa M.

The ambiance is super cute here and is definitely your traditional diner! It gets very busy but the service is great and very quick. The hash browns were perfectly crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, and the biscuit was super flaky. The omelet was pretty good, though I wasn't a huge fan of the American cheese in it and the eggs could have been a bit fluffier. The portions were really good though and I'd definitely come back!

Biscuits and gravy- half eaten! Full order

Omg the food is so good!! Im a die hard biscuits and gravy fan and theirs are superb! The country fried steak is also divine. This place is quaint and not an upscale restaurant but its comfortable. The service is always on point and the coffee is always fresh and flowing. It's also really affordable! I love this place.

Great little place hidden in the back of a strip mall. Everyone here was so nice from the waitstaff to the cashier. Went in on a Sunday morning and the place was packed to the brim but still sat us quickly and it was very evident there were a decent amount of regulars that would keep coming back. My coffee cup didn't run dry or 1/2 down for the entire meal. The food came out quick and you can tell those line cooks were turning and burning from the constant in and out. Portion sizes were large and not a place you leave with any doubt of being full. The bagel was nice and crispy, eggs were right consistency, prob 6-8 slices of ham on there and hash browns cooked to a golden brown to go with it. Wife got the big bear French pancakes which are pancakes coated with French toast batter. I got a couple bites of these and they will be on my plate next time I'm in 5/5 would recommend to a friend!

Looking for a different place to meet Deb for lunch and this place popped up in the search so here we are. Really cozy, mom and pop feel. Large menu with the diner favorites both breakfast and lunch. I ordered some fried pickles to start. Really good. They were spears and I usually prefer chips but the brininess of the pickles and the breading made for a great tasting bite. I then ordered the Cheeseburger club. Delicious. A little messy to eat but good sandwiches should be right? All of the flavors of a burger but into triangles like a club. Deb had the chicken salad sandwich. Nice flavors and a large portion. Over all a sold diner with great food at great prices.

We walked in and were told to sit wherever we wanted, we chose the window seats. Hahahaha! I ordered the Locals Favorite and my guest ordered the Salmons Benedict we shared the Chicken and waffles. The service was great, our server was great too! We asked about real maple syrup and she actually tracked down a bottle, I couldn't believe it! ( Pictured) The Local Favorite was excellent! The crab cake was perfectly seasoned, the English muffin was toasted perfectly and the hollandaise sauce was also perfect. The cheesy grits were good as well! I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. My guest also loved her meal, ( Salmon Benedict) the salmon was perfectly done without being dry, the eggs were a little beyond poached but that's okay. The home fried potatoes were golden brown and an excellent addition to the meal. The ambiance is super chill which is surprising considering how good the food is. The chicken and waffles were exceptional as well. The four chicken strips with tender, juicy and well seasoned placed on top of the golden brown waffle which was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The butter and maple syrup was butter made this waffle an 8/10.

Excellent food and great choices. Great service with a smile…read more The decor is really pleasant

Baby let me tell you. Despite the lack of service and not being able to sit inside was a downer for…read moreme. As I can't see a health food score from outside but the taste of the sauce and crabs quickly made up for it. Garlic sauce 10/10 It was simple not too salty and flavorful! Blue crabs 9/10 I only scored it 7 because they don't give you an option to pick large or small crabs and they were VERY small. But I ate every last one! Corn 10/10 Fresh not frozen Sausage 10/10 Not that cheap dollar store sausage . Close to Nola style Neck bone 10/10 Omg the best smoked neck bone I ever had in my life! Shrimp 8/10 It was ok. I prefer head on with my boil. Still very good. Fruit punch 10/10 taste like my childhood lol Overall I highly recommend. I'm surprised they didn't have cars wrapped around this establishment. Give the option for large or jumbo crabs and this place will sell out! Whenever I'm in Tampa this will be my first stop!

What a complete disaster. This is for their Food truck, not physical location…read more 3 things important about serving from a food truck; it has to be fast, easy to eat and great food. The completely forgot about the first 2. Long line so figured it's probably good and looking at reviews thought it would be worth the wait. 45 minutes wait in line. They were completely overwhelmed and lady who took my order (BTW, I'm a very heterosexual man, but there are a lot of kids around and if you're going to lean forward to take orders, how about wearing a shirt that doesn't let me see down to your belly button and all the things you stuff in your bra, such as lighters, etc.) got very snappy with everyone. As you can see from video I posted where I asked people how long they had been waiting, it was over 2 HOURS for most. At that point, all of us should have had our food refunded or at least some type of discount, but nope. Never offered. After an hour, when I went and asked the woman who took my order how long it would take, she said "in a while. I don't know. We're busy". Guess what. That's your JOB to know. They never gave anyone a receipt, just asked us to give them our names, and when we would ask how long it would be, they asked for our name and then asked what we ordered. Seriously? IT SHOULD BE ON THE TICKET WITH THE NAME I JUST GAVE YOU!!! FYI, I gave them the name "YO" to make it easy to remember but apparently, it was too difficult. There were over 30 people waiting and the crowd was getting angry!!! Finally, another woman showed up that got things moving. Whoever you are in the red shirt, thank you! I think we'd still be waiting if it wasn't for you. You should have been there an hour before then. Now the food. Remember the easy to eat part? Obviously it's a food truck, so no crab pliers given. The other food truck actually cracked them before serving them so people could just peel them open. Nothing done here so it was impossible to eat (big crab legs were easier but still not ideal). Had to take them home to eat which defeats the purpose of a food truck. The blue crabs had almost no meat in them. Complete waste of money. The crab legs were actually big and at least tasted good which is why it's 2 stars and not one. Based on the service alone and lack of care to try to make things right with customers, I'm leery to even go to their physical location. Too much competition around to not take care of customers the way they should. Very disappointing and had such high hopes.

Review of May 22 Me, and favorite Fla, cousin, were in…read moresearch of the best cheesesteak in the area... We had a very short wait, maybe 15 minutes before getting seated, our server was very quick to take our order, the only problem was a table about three away from us that had a five-year-old yelling and screaming pretty much at the top of her lungs constantly, the parents not trying to take care of the problem by walking her outside for a little bit, just let her do her thing With this in mind, and what would seem to be an hour to get our food (it wasn't) we tucked into the sandwich and the rings... Was the cheesesteak the best, no, was it great, no, it was just ok, nothing to right home about... it definitely did not look like the cheesesteak that big Jim was biting into on Facebook. How were the onion rings, they came out hot, large, and very crispy, were they, tasty, yes, were they greasy, very.... I never leave onion rings at a restaurant not to take them home, I left these, I couldn't honestly see with them being so grease laden that they would be any better reheated. So far IMHO, the touch stone for cheesesteaks belongs to a certain bar located in Dunedin...
