    This is the spot for Great Puerto Rican food without the crazy price. Always a variety, food is amazing and has food you don't normally see. Staff is attentive, owner is always helping and the place is clean. Don't waist your time with flair, BS presentations and over priced food at other places near by.

    Ample dining area super clean and great lighting

    When we're in the mood for Spanish food, this is our go to. The food is delicious and hasn't had anything I didn't like.

We happen to stumble upon Jimmy Bears BBQ and are glad we had the opportunity to try it! We came on a Friday night around 6pm, expecting the restaurant to be packed but as we walked in we quickly realized we were the only patrons there. During our time there we never saw anyone else come in either. We ordered our food to-go, and it came out relatively quickly! We felt the price was on par with similar restaurants, and very fair for the amount of food you received The food itself was overall decent. There were some items that we really enjoyed, like the Mac and cheese, three blind mice sandwich, and the Alabama white sauce!! Other items like the green beans or pulled brisket left us wanting more. The green beans did not taste fresh, and the brisket lacked seasoning/flavor. There were also a lot of fried elements like the tater tots, onion rings or even the mozzarella sticks on the three blind mice sandwich, which we feel like were all decent and not too greasy, but also know those are easy things to make regardless of where you're at! The staff was very friendly at the restaurant! They were available if we had questions, and got our food out quickly to us. The ambiance of the restaurant was a little out of date and worn. You could definitely tell this establishment/building has been here for awhile with little to no updates over the years. A few updates to the space I think would really transform it and make it look like it belongs in 2023 not 1993. We do see ourselves coming back in the future, as we saw a few other menu items we are curious about trying!

The last few left independently operated. Fat boys bbq is a staple to the folk in central Florida. The quality of their food speaks for itself. They offer breakfast and lunch running into dinner 9pm The ribs and smoked chicken were the favorites. And the spicy bbq sauce was delish. As you walk in the restaurant takes you back to older times, everything seems rustic and classic. The dining hall seems out of 70's movies. Wide center and small boots all over. Best deal has to be the meal for 4 priced at 55$ plus taxes included 4 toast, 4 corn on the cob, backed beans, Cole slaw, 2 on bone meat and three sliced meats plus 4 starch sides. Soooooo much food!!

The breast and the wing were the smallest piece of meat I have ever gotten in a restaurant before. I was very disappointed. I did not say anything while I was there. It did taste good though. The coleslaw came in a very small cup and the potato was smaller than most restaurants. I just don't remember getting such small portions at this restaurant before. Also, I ordered a soda and it comes in a tall cup. The straw they give you is too small and does not reach the bottom of the cup. I'm hoping they read this and order taller straws. Lol. I will continue dining there because the food is good and the service is good. I'd like to see more reasonable sized portions though.

Lindsay gets a special shout-out for being kind, caring, and attentive! What a ray of sunshine! She was so excited when she arrived with my dessert (she made a brownie sundae just for me). It was everything you would want in a sweet treat. A perfectly warm brownie and cold vanilla ice cream topped with whipped cream just hits, and they do it right! 2. The. Meats. Were. GREAT. I got the sampler sliders and my boyfriend got the sampler platter. The slider buns were perfect and even toasted a bit which added major bonus points for me. The pulled pork was tender and flavorful. Brisket was peppery and perfect. Ribs were also veryyyy tenderrrrrr. You can tell the food is made with love. All I could do was smile as I ate my lunch, knowing I have an amazing bbq spot so close to me. 3. The corn nuggets were SO GOOD and SO comforting. Crispy, sweet, and perfect. I eyed the menu before going, and these caught my eye immediately. They did not disappoint. I can't wait to have them again! 4. The sauces were FIRE. The sweet and the crimson were perfect to us. 5. Who doesn't like 80s Rock and Roll?! Its one of those places that make you feel at home. The location is perfect, as well. Lakefront is a great place to dily dally while you digest the deliciousness. Rock on, Big John!!

You can really tell the kitchen takes pride in the quality of the ingredients and preparation. Huge kudos to Chef Frankie for delivering such a phenomenal meal. Everything from the steak to the sides was well executed and beautifully presented. Our server, Aubrey, was fantastic and truly elevated the experience. She was attentive, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu without ever making us feel rushed. Her service made the evening feel relaxed and enjoyable. We also have to mention the banana fosters cheesecake for dessert--it was absolutely amazing and the perfect way to end the meal. Rich, flavorful, and something we would come back for on its own. Great atmosphere, excellent food, and standout service. Between Chef Frankie's incredible cooking and Aubrey's attentive service, this steakhouse is definitely a place we will return to and highly recommend

Hard to describe this place. It was decorated like an old time speakeasy. There was a pianist doing Billy Joel songs which was quite good. And the patrons here were top notch. Liked the tree they have up all year, the theme for February was Valentines. Frankie is the chef and she is making magic here. Had the short ribs and it came with rosemary and garlic mash and brussels. Can't believe how very delicious this was and it was 5 star quality and worth every penny of it's $36 price. One of the best meals I have had in months. The bananas foster cheese cake is to die for. Actually everything was great. The food, drinks and such friendly service. So in love with Phyre Brewery & Tavern. Crystal and Kristen were our bartenders. Kristen made a smoked old fashion which was awesome. It was a little on the sweet side, but definitely awesome. See the videos. They also have a Clydes old fashioned which is garnished with their phyre bacon. Aubrey and Allie were taking care of the tables, but got to meet them too and they were awesome. There is Karaoke here on Mondays... so definitely have to come back and check that out!

    Lunch was included as part of the Airboat ride, we were all hungry after and had an OK meal here…read more The worst part was almost everything was over-salted and what would have been a good burger and fries was ruined by the overly generous dosing of salt. For future customers I would order with no salt and add to your own taste. The potato salad also had something like sour cream and onions added to it that was too strong in flavor and we only had a couple bites before throwing the rest away. You order at the gift shop which is nice and air conditioned but you eat in an enclosed outdoor space with a fan. Pulled Pork Sandwich: The beans I got as sides were really good, the bun was a nice soft brioche and you can choose your toppings so I added lettuce and pickles to help cut some of the saltiness. It's a pretty meat-packed sandwich and tasted fine. Hot Dog: This was a lot bigger than normal and perfect for our kids to split. Tasted great.

I believe you can order food here without having tickets to the airboat rides (but double-check that before you come). You order inside at the gift shop at a cash register. They have menus right by the line to check out the menu before ordering. The woman at the register was nice. We settled on ordering BLTs and ribs. I'm a huge BLT fan, and this one was really good! The ribs were also good. They supply a few different types of bbq sauce, and they each were good, but I preferred the spicy one. Also, the BLTs were really big, and you can easily split them between two people. We sat outside, which was the only seating option. It was an indoor/outdoor space, but open so let's say plenty of bugs were flying around. I would eat here again if we were coming to do the airboat tour.
