Publix has created a pleasant shopping experience with a nice ambiance and fantastic customer service. No review of Publix would be complete without mentioning their subs, affectionately known as "Pub Subs." My go-to sub here is their Italian or roast beef. I would definitely recommend either of these fantastic subs (or "Pub Subs"). I would definitely recommend this particular Publix supermarket.

I wanted to update my review of this Publix because it has been my local and most convenient Publix…read moresince it opened back in 2013 I think. I'm happy to have a Publix so convenient to my home, however, we really need another one! I pretty sure this is the busiest Publix on the planet. It is always crowded! Check out lines are long. Parking is a nightmare and the store just cannot keep up. It would seem there are other Publix in the area, but if you've sat in traffic on 27 or 17 you know that even if the next Publix is only 5-6 miles away it is easily a 20+ minute drive to the next one. Seriously, Reunion, Champions Gate, Bella Citta, or Haines City are all going to take you 20 min or more. This is why this one is just so overwhelmed and not a pleasure to shop at anymore.

Like I said in my first post if you're the only Caucasian there this place is gonna make it perfect. So if you like seriously ethnic Mexican food get your butt here. Service is always great and if there's something you need, you will always be able to get it just by asking. And for those I have no idea what Menudo is, it is a bowl of soup made from tripe that they cook for hours. And they serve it nice and spicy. If you're a foodie, it is something you should try. 6/24/2023 This is a Wonderful place. The place was really busy however the service is great and they get you in as fast as they can. One more of those places where I was one of the few Caucasian people. Always a good sign if they serve Mexican food and most of the people there of that heritage. One thing to be cautious about is that the serving sizes are not small.

1/5 STARS -- PLEASE READ BEFORE GOING…read more I've been to MANY Mexican/Spanish restaurants in my life, and unfortunately, this place deserves 1 star from me. This review is based on my experience on August 9, 2026, so this is one of the most recent reviews you can find. The food was okay. I would honestly give it about a 3/10. Some things had little to no flavor, and some of the food tasted like it had been sitting out for a while. The fried plantains were especially soggy. Overall, the food was missing seasoning and freshness. But the BIGGEST problem was the communication and the employee serving us. My family of 5 went because we wanted a nice Spanish/Mexican place to eat. We saw all the positive reviews, so we decided to try it. The problem started when we were ordering. WE WERE NEVER TOLD THAT WE COULD ONLY CHOOSE ONE SINGULAR TYPE OF MEAT, ONE SINGULAR TYPE OF RICE, AND ONE SINGULAR TYPE OF SALAD. Nobody explained that choosing a little bit of another meat would automatically be considered an entire extra serving. We chose ribs and chicken, and we also wanted to try another meat. And when I say TRY, I mean TRY. We did NOT want a full serving. We didn't even want an actual piece of the meat. WE ONLY WANTED TO TASTE THE JUICE FROM THE MEAT. That's it. And we were still charged the FULL $4 PRICE for "extra meat." If I'm paying the FULL PRICE for the meat, then just give me the chicken! The frustrating part is that nobody told us beforehand that even wanting a small taste of another meat would cost an additional $4. If the employee had simply said, "You can only choose one type of meat, and anything else is an additional $4," we would have understood and made our decision. Instead, we were told nothing and were charged afterward. When we tried to explain ourselves, the employee was not very understanding. She came across as rude and dismissive, and instead of simply explaining the policy to us, it felt like we were being blamed for not understanding something that was never communicated to us in the first place. A little communication and kindness would have gone a LONG way. We also ordered lemonade, which my family ALWAYS gets. One lemonade was $6, which is honestly ridiculous to me. Our total for 5 people was around $110. On top of that, there was an automatic 15% gratuity/service charge. I understand restaurants have policies, but PLEASE communicate these charges and rules clearly BEFORE customers order. This isn't just about the $4. It's about the fact that we were never told the rules, we were charged for something we didn't understand was considered "extra," and then we were treated poorly when we tried to ask about it. Unfortunately, this restaurant has lost my family as customers. We will not be coming back. The food was okay, but for the price, the service, and especially the lack of communication, it was NOT worth it. Overall: 1/5 If you're reading reviews before deciding whether to come here, I hope this helps. This is my honest experience from August 9, 2026.

I am sure this is going to trigger someone, but I feel like someone has to defend Aldi. Some of…read morethese reviews are just well, quite special. To start for those people who obviously have never shopped at an Aldi, there aren't many name brands. But I can attest to the quality of their offerings, especially produce. And at times like these when prices are already high, Aldi does a good job of making those things you need like fruits, vegetable, eggs, meat and bread more affordable. To those people who got trauma from going to the supermarket, if you can afford it, maybe you should use one of those shopping apps. And this is not being insensitive, just giving options. I have never heard of anxiety of any kind from a supermarket visit, unless it has to do with the price you pay at checkout. But there is a first time for everything and I am grateful to have shared in your experience from your review and your perspective. As far as Aldi goes. I have never once had a bad experience. I have always been treated with dignity and respect, even the odd times when I have been there right before they close. The associates have always been helpful and there have been times when they have actually walked me to an item when I was unable to find it. I like this Aldi especially well because of the layout and the diverse offerings. So there is that. And if I have offended anyone by my comments, these are just my opinions based on my limited experience in this world. And if you are taking them that serious, then you are giving my words way more power than they deserve. Finally, Aldi is a great alternative in Florida to some of those more expensive chains. Especially in times like these when the dollar is just not going as far as it did just two years ago.

The new store in Haines City is currently better, but they have a select crew and who knows how much longer they will be working there. Florida needs a real supermarket chain to move in and supply quality goods. Hopefully this will happen.

Super disappointed--I honestly don't even know how to start this review…read more This location is one I visit regularly, probably twice a month, which makes this experience even more frustrating. Today, we had two separate purchases totaling $104.64 and $93.70. There was a promotion offering $0.25 off per gallon of gas with purchases over $100. After fueling up, I noticed I didn't receive the discount, so I went to customer service for assistance. At first, the representative was helpful, but then she explained that the $100 minimum had to be reached before tax. She suggested I purchase an additional $2 worth of merchandise to qualify. My response was simple: had I known that, I would have combined the purchases from the start. There was no fine print visible stating the requirement was based on the pre-tax total. What made the situation disappointing wasn't the $2.23 discount itself--it was the unwillingness to find a simple solution. We're talking about a promotional credit worth just a couple of dollars after spending nearly $200 in the store. Sometimes customer service is about doing what it takes to make a loyal customer feel valued. Unfortunately, the interaction only got worse. The manager didn't seem interested in helping, and the overall attitude felt more like I was causing a problem than asking for assistance. At one point, I even asked the representative why this seemed to bother her so much. She replied that she wasn't being rude, and while she may not have been verbally rude, her expressions and attitude certainly made it feel that way. A quick reminder to anyone working in customer service: treating customers with respect, patience, and kindness--even when a situation requires a little extra effort--speaks volumes about your professionalism and character. For a moment, I felt like I shouldn't have even asked for my $2.23, and that's not how a loyal customer should feel. This wasn't about the money. It was about customer satisfaction, and unfortunately, that was completely missing today. What makes this even more disappointing is that if this had happened at a restaurant, I simply would have never returned. In fact, I've stopped going back to places before even when the food was good because customer service matters that much to me. Unfortunately, in this case, I don't really have another option and will likely continue bringing my business here. That said, it doesn't change the fact that today's experience left me feeling unappreciated as a loyal customer. Businesses should never take repeat customers for granted, especially over something that could have been resolved so easily.

Also, of course there is the parking problem. This location is honestly better than others, but there is still nowhere near enough parking to meet the daily demand. Since the restaurant was bought out it has been slightly better, but it would only really improve of a garage was built.

Walking in and taking it all in from left to right. Registers to the left, several pantry aisles, produce, butcher towards the back beyond the produce and the deli area at the far right. I was hungry so I gravitated first to the deli. My experience at a Key Foods in North Clermont had me expecting the worst here where I thought I would find no prices listed and only Spanish speaking employees. Thankfully, that was not an issue at the Bravo deli. Prices for most of the hot case items were listed on the menu above. I didn't see prices for the macaroni and potato salads but found out they were $3.99 lb. Both salads were very tasty. The prices for the hot case items seemed reasonable and the food looked really good. I also purchased 2 empanadas that were made with cornmeal dough at $3 each. I'm not sure what country they represented but thinking Puerto Rico. The empanada dough was slightly sweet which I wasn't expecting but still pretty good. They were stuffed full with meat. I ordered a shredded beef and a shredded chicken version. I asked for a sauce and was only given an option to buy a garlic cream sauce cup for 50 cents. Sadly no Ají Picante option was offered to me which I usually like with empanadas. This garlic sauce was delicious though and we used it on everything to the last drop, including the salads. The store has many Latin staples which is expected. Many options that you won't find at your local Publix. Everything seemed fresh. They even had a carved out space for the wine which they called the Wine Cellar with a rack of cigars at the entrance to the "cellar". Checkout area is tight and the cashier was unfriendly to me which is the main reason why I knocked off a star. Suggestion: have prices listed for everything in the deli. It is a pain to ask for what each unpriced item costs. They would probably move items quicker with all prices listed.
