Starving we bellied up to the bar grabbed a menu and studied the menu. I decided on a shrimp basket and my friend had fried catfish basket. The staff was friendly and thee food came out quickly.

I've been to Gator Bait several times, and usually it's a decent spot for bar food. Cool atmosphere…read moreand chill vibe. But lately, the quality has dropped. I ordered a cheeseburger and fries. The burger patty was over an inch thick, dry, and totally flavorless -- no seasoning at all. The fries were oily, dark, and crispy in a bad way, like they'd been double-fried in old grease. Prices have gone up, but the quality's going down. If you're just hanging out for drinks and a casual place, it's fine. But if you're coming for a solid meal, it's not worth it anymore. Sidenote, one of the workers were coughing all everybody's food as she ran it out . She looked methedup if you get what I'm saying

I was out and about on the motorcycle, and it had come around to lunch time. Looked around the…read moreMelrose area for something to eat, and let's face it, there isn't a whole lot in Melrose. Sure, there is some (in my opinion) overpriced fried chicken, and a sports bar, but for just grabbing a bite to eat I wasn't up for that. However, down the road a little bit I found the Grove Shack food truck! There is some outdoor seating, and decent weather protection in case of a bit of rain or need of some shade, so I figured I would give it a shot. I just went with a burger and fries, which also comes with coleslaw. The burger was good, with solid ingredients. The fries I believe were from SysCo or PFG, but these days it is hard to find a place that isn't using fries from them, and they are decent fries, so I am alright with that. The only real disappointment I had was from the coleslaw, as it was a bit on the wimpy side. All in all a decent bite to eat, the prices were reasonable, and I enjoyed the experience.

Was passing through from Gainesville to Jacksonville and Yelp helped me find this little jewel…read more Street parking which was surprisingly easy to find. Was able to park right out front. Don't judge the place by its exterior. Walked in and is a very relaxed, roomy restaurant with table like many of us eat at in yesteryear at home. Country table I think they call it. Big black board on wall with specials. Very detailed menu also. Cell service is not existent inside but I did see and use the guest WiFi. Several ladies serving or taking orders so service was great. Menu is pretty extensive but I finally settled on the Reuben and went with the soup as a side. The Reuben was delicious. Not overloaded like some try to do it but also not lacking. Delicious!. Now I know soup when it is 80 outside but she sold it well. She also did not oversell it as it was as good as she said. Loaded potato with bacon and cheese and broccoli. Wow. Cleaned it all up and washed it down with some truly awesome sweet tea.

We had some long time friends come down with us as well. Our first stop on our Gainesville Adventure was here! I ordered the #9. Tony Montana Cubano. I have to say I've had many Cuban sandwich's before but this Cuban sandwich was the BEST! I love the flavor of seasoned pork they use as well as the Boars Head Meat. I do believe all those makes the difference. If you like Cuban sandwich's you must try this one. Also our friends with us ordered the #12 Uncle Drew Monte Cristo and shared and they loved it! All the staff were super friendly! It took about 10 minutes for us to get our sandwich's. Everything was clean and well kept. Definitely recommend The Paper Bag!
