Snapper Plate
Mackenzie M.

Marlene's has quickly become one of my favorite restaurants in Lakeland! I order from there weekly. I have yet to find something I don't like. Today, I had the snapper plate, which was absolutely delicious. The portion is HUGE. Whatever sauce the fish is cooked in/topped with us so good, slightly sweet and tomato based I believe. It came with rice and peas and their veggies (which by the way, Marlene's cabbage is the absolute best). It is a whole fish, so be mindful of bones. But they are super easy to remove due to how well the fish is cooked. My children enjoy the brown stew chicken (even my pickiest eater cleans her plate). My oldest daughter loves the curry goat, which I have tried and can tell you is absolutely incredible. If you are looking for some real authentic Jamaican cuisine, give Marlene's a try! You won't be disappointed! It's quite the hidden little gem!

Curry Chicken
Noreen N.

The food is amazing and full of flavor. I had the chicken curry lunch special and I am going keep coming back. I am excited to try the other items on the menu. The food is reasonably priced and the portions are perfect. The restaurant is take out only and a no frills kind of place. The owner was very sweet.

Goat rice and peas with cabbage. Yum. I'm all set now

My type of food. Everything felt like my mother cooked it, except the plantains were a tad bit average. I will continue to eat here.

LongHorn Steakhouse made our Mother's Day lunch feel special, even on one of the busiest days of…read morethe year. The food was cooked exactly right, but what truly made the experience stand out was our server, Judy. I can't say this enough -- Judy was the best server I've ever had. She was warm, attentive, and incredibly thoughtful, checking in at just the right moments and making sure everything was perfect. Even with the holiday rush, she handled everything with calm, kindness, and genuine care. Her service made our lunch memorable, and she's the reason we'll be back.

The lemon garlic chicken has been my favorite for years, but on May 19 2026, it was so salty it…read moredrew my mouth up like a bow. I ate about 4 bites, asked for some honey mustard to hopefully offset it, but it didnt help. Finally I told the waitress I couldn't eat it. She offered another entree but I tasted my husband's steak and it was salty, so was my baked potato. I drank all my water while I watched my husband eat dinner, noting his sweet potato looked like pudding. He sat his birthday card on the table after we ordered, but they didnt offer us a dessert menu, just asked if I wanted the check. I paid for both dinners and THEN the manager came by to apologize, adding that all the chicken arrives pre-marinated so they don't have any control over it. Wow, they don't get fresh chicken? Did not offer to refund my dinner or a complimentary dessert. We left and will not be back. This was at the Longhorn in West Kissimmee, off hwy 192, not Lakeland. Never again!
