Ashley was absolutely phenomenal! From the moment we sat down, she brought such a welcoming and…read moreupbeat energy that instantly elevated our entire experience. She was attentive without being overbearing, quick with recommendations, and clearly knowledgeable about everything on the menu. Every drink she made was spot-on -- perfectly balanced and served with a smile. What really stood out was how she went above and beyond to make sure we got the most out of our visit. She took the time to tell us about the MVP program and explained all the benefits in a way that was clear and genuinely helpful. On top of that, she made sure we knew about the 2-for-1 drink specials, which definitely made the night even better! Ashley didn't just serve drinks -- she created an experience. Friendly, professional, and incredibly personable, she's the kind of bartender that keeps people coming back. We'll absolutely be asking for her again next time!

We stopped into Duffy's for our team Christmas celebration recently and had an exceptional time…read more Service was stellar, we were a party of 8; we ordered a bunch of drinks, multiple appetizers to share, we each had a meal with upgraded sides and, and dessert. We can be a wild group and our server jived with us perfectly, which we appreciate. The spinach dip and chips were delicious, I believe we ordered two sets of this appetizer. We ordered regular stuffed mushrooms and an order of their crab stuffed mushrooms which were excellent. We ordered Onion Rings, fried calamari, and the Tex-Mex Eggrolls, which were all freshly fried and delicious. For my entrée I went with the full rack of ribs, a side of skewered shrimp, garlic mashed potatoes, and steamed broccoli. The ribs were super tender and all of the sides were cooked perfectly and had plenty of great flavor. I ordered one of their holiday drink specials, the Cookie Butter Old Fashioned but ended up switching to a traditional old fashioned because this one was a bit too sweet for me. I also closed out my meal with an Espresso Martini which was excellent. Everyone else enjoyed their meals and there were plenty of leftovers to go around for those that wanted them. We usually go to Texas Roadhouse for our holiday celebration but they don't have tables big enough for larger groups which means we will have to sit a two separate tables. This year we wanted to try something different and Duffy's worked out perfectly. Great Job Duffy's, we will be back!

My husband and I went to The Vineyard for dinner and it was an excellent choice. We had…read morereservations and were seated immediately and our server was extremely attentive as well as courteous. The vibe was dark and romantic, which was perfect for our date night. We ordered the Spinach Rolls for an appetizer and they were delicious. Tender enough to cut with a fork and the crispy bread crumbs added flavor and texture. My husband ordered the fresh fish dish of the evening and it was light and flavorful. It had unique flavors that were delectable. I ordered the Lobster Asparagus Risotto, and it was the best lobster I've had thus far in Orlando. The lobster was cooked and seasoned perfectly. The risotto was creamy and the asparagus tender which was a perfect complement to the lobster. For dessert we ordered the Banana Bread Pudding. The bread pudding was warm and had the texture of a French toast. It was delicious and the whip cream was fresh. The food, service, and ambience were a 10/10. The quality of food is next level and for a fresh/flavorful meal I will always choose The Vineyard.

Food took a little longer but we were a table of 6, so that's probably why. We shared everything…read moreand they brought medium sized sharing plates that were just right. Lobster risotto: maybe my favorite dish, although I personally like my risotto a little creamier. The flavor was good though and a good size of lobster. Hanger steak stir fry: this was a surprise hit for me, as I didn't expect much of an Asian inspired dish. I also liked the steak here more than the ribeye which is usually not the case for me Short rib: a very generous portion of lush pomme puree; short rib was not bad but not my go-to either Ribeye: my companions largely picked this as their favorite Lobster alfredo: this was our least favorite; not awful but a little flat and uninspired compared to the other dishes

Tuffy's concert venue seems to be a combo outdoor (covered! But open air) bierhall kind of place…read morewith an indoor aircraft hangar converted into concert venue. Standing only, all concrete in the hangar, one bar, lots of waiting. The bathrooms are cleanish and highly functional, no flushing issues, not disgusting, multiple women's stalls. For our concert, the venue set up a Coleman cooler of water and small free water cups by the entry, but they did not make an effort to refill the water jug, so we got quite dehydrated and unhappy halfway through. Liquid death cans and cups of ice can be purchased for about the same cost as alcohol at the bar. Nutrl was only $6 and change, I was thrilled! The sound quality was EXCEPTIONAL! Kudos and a half to Tuffy's for excellent balance and not blowing our eardrums. The light show, meh, too many dark blends, too moody and could barely see the band. When most lit up, I enjoyed seeing the stage. The place got very crowded, very quickly. They need crowd control and to not overpack concert goers like sardines. The outdoor bierhall vibe was chill but was basically a refuge for chainsmokers :( Would def go back, but have clear expectations, multiple water cans in pockets, and very very supportive shoes for tha concrete floor.

Cool bar located in downtown Sanford. I have been to their Ivanhoe location numerous times, but a…read morefew weeks ago was my first visit here. The bar is also part of a furniture shop. Be careful where you put your drink, especially without a coaster as there is good chance that table you are setting it on is for sale. You may come for a drink and leave with a new piece of furniture for your house... On this visit I got one of their special drinks of the day. It was a variation on the Manhattan. It was ok, I think the bartender made it well, I was just not a fan of the flavoring. Sounded better than it was. It is a cool spot to hangout for a drink or two and worth a visit next time in Sanford.

If you're looking for a place in Sanford where you can drink like an adult but play video games…read morelike you're 12 again, Throwbacks is your spot. I walked in, saw FREE arcade games, and immediately knew I wasn't leaving for at least three hours or until someone unplugged the machines. The drinks? Cheap. Like "did they forget to charge me?" cheap. I had to double-check the receipt to make sure I didn't accidentally order a kid's menu lemonade. And the food? Exactly what you want at a place like this. Not fancy. Not complicated. Just good. The kind of food that hits perfectly after a couple drinks and three rounds of Pac-Man abuse. Now let's talk about the real MVP: Kristine -- the best bartender in the building, the city, probably the state. She's fast, funny, remembers everyone, and pours like she's trying to fix your whole week. If you go and she's working, consider yourself blessed. If she's not working... honestly just come back when she is. Overall, Throwbacks is the perfect mix of nostalgia, cheap drinks, good food, and Kristine being an absolute legend behind the bar. Highly recommend. If you see me there losing to a 10-year-old at Street Fighter, mind your business.

Horrible experience!!! Went to downtown Sanford for my first time last night with my grandmother…read moreand mom and the service was terrible, especially at this bar! We we waited over 25 minutes to try and order our drinks and never got one so the guy next to us was friends with the bartender and ordered from her (both bartenders were blonde didn't catch there names or I would write it) and when he gave us the drinks he ordered for us, She got pissed that we ended up being able to order a drink so I don't know what is going on with this establishment, but your bartenders are horrible and rude and lose you a lot of money from business. I will never be returning and spreading the word this place sucks. Never had an experience this bad at a bar in my life! Do better!!!!!!!!!!

For me it was a moment of nostalgia dating back to the 90's when I followed Rancid on tour with Suicide Machines. This party doesn't discriminate though, and has new age bands who were just as amazing. I absolutely love the Shbooms. It's like a beautiful mix of Aretha Franklin meets ska/rock. If you want to have a low key festival experience in a small intimate venue then this is definitely the party you need to attend. The inside bar has lots of wonderful beer choices from local beers to mainstream beers and mixed cocktails. I drank sooo many Sanford Irish reds that I definitely paid the price the next day, but I also had the time of my life. I can't wait till next years lineup announcement.

It was a little pricey for what it was worth at full price. There was plenty of seating and the decor was nice walking in. They had a great selection of beers and drinks and although it was after 6pm, the happy hour menu looked strong! We settled for a glass of wine, old fashioned, and a beer on draft. We waited about 10 minutes for our drinks although things didn't seem to have picked up yet. The service was consistently a little slow throughout the night after that, probably due to the crowd. Our server recommended the Philly steak spring rolls. They were crispy but the inside was wet with hot oil and a little bland. I would not recommend this dish. We also ordered the Bavarian pretzel which was a classic soft pretzel, to be expected. The mustard it was served with was delicious. Lastly we also tried the buster burger which was a little soggy but the bacon jam was flavorful, a good addition. We appreciated the friendly service at Busters and hopeful to have a better experience next time we visit!
