They have both heaters and fans outside so it's comfortable with any weather. The staff was overall friendly. We went two different mornings as we were traveling and had a night and day experience with our waitresses. Jessica M is AMAZING and a ball of sunshine. She is very kind and attentive. The other waitress did not seem like she even wanted to be there with very little communication... however, don't let one bad apple spoil the bunch. Their homemade onion and peach pepper sauce is SOO GOOD, and not spicy at all! Definitely bought some for home. Goes great with the breakfast potatoes. Highly recommend this quaint restaurant!

Nothing better in Florida. Found it due to some gentleman I was talking to at an estate sale. Said that was the best breakfast in Mount Dora and I've eaten them outdoor before.

We've found another great breakfast spot and it was worth the drive to Mount Dora. I heard about…read morethis place on the radio and decided to give it a try. They have all the breakfast items you can imagine and a whole bunch of lunch and dinner options as well. Their menu continues to expand. We, of course, went for breakfast and had our choice of eggs and bacon and grits and pancakes ... but what stood out for me was the biscuits and gravy and the SOS. If you don't know what SOS stands for, look it up... it's a great breakfast item. The SOS is not the same as the biscuits and sausage gravy because that is sausage gravy, the SOS has chipped beef in gravy and usually will come on toast, but I prefer it with the biscuits. I asked for my eggs over easy and they were just right. The side of grits comes in a small bowl which is a good portion for one person and the pancakes were humongous - a very good size for two pancakes and golden brown... I ended up sharing with my wife. We were very happy with the service that they gave us and one of the managers came around to see if everything was good or if we needed anything and we really appreciated that. This is a very down to earth place where it feels like home. It's a great place to bring the family, and we did see a lot of people with their kids, but, we also saw couples like myself and my wife sharing some good coffee or sweet tea and loving life. We are definitely coming back because I wanna try the teriyaki chicken plates and I'm very interested in the shrimp and scallops.

My bacon egg cheese croissant sandwich was delicious both days I got it and so was my husband's burrito. We watched the pancakes and French toasts walk by and they also looked amazing. Definitely a Mount Dora must and if you got good shoes and are in good health not a bad walk from downtown.

Used to be a favorite spot for breakfast…read more This morning we went for breakfast and I brought my latte from home as usual. I was told to take it out to the car or leave. New no outside beverage policy. They don't offer lattes and we were all ordering breakfast, not just sitting around drinking coffee from home. Was told they make most of their money off coffee? Isn't it like $3 with refills? Not like I bought my own eggs. Cool. Left and went to waffle house. Prob wont be back. So, they lost $30-$40 in sales because of a $3 coffee? Sound business decision.

Food is very good. Service is too Slow. Ambiance is decent…read more My Gripe is that the people are slow. Waiter takes too long to come and they take too long to make/Serve the food. Needs to be more quick. Also the change to do more Mexican food is Lame. We already have 2 and i Mean TWO Mexican Restaurants. We don't need more. Plus, your a Seafood Restaurant. Why are you making that type of food . Food for thought.

Some places just hit you right in the heart, and today The Mason Jar did exactly that…read more The first time I ate here was about 12 years ago. It quickly became my mom's favorite restaurant after she moved to the area, and whenever I came to visit, she couldn't wait to bring me here. I still remember how good the fried chicken was back then. My mom passed away 8 years ago, and I hadn't been back since... until today. Friends of ours moved from Ohio to Florida and live not too far from The Mason Jar. They kept talking about this amazing comfort-food spot they couldn't wait to take us to. As you've probably guessed by now -- it was The Mason Jar. The moment it clicked, I had a smile on my face and a tear in my eye. Everything felt just like I remembered: great food, friendly staff, and that warm, welcoming atmosphere. The only thing missing was my mom. In her honor, I ordered the fried chicken again. It came with three sides, and I chose coleslaw, fried okra, and mashed potatoes. It was absolutely delicious -- comforting, flavorful, and exactly how I remembered it. If you're looking for a place that's more than just a meal, somewhere that helps create memories, this is that kind of place. Thank you, Mason Jar, for the memory. It meant more than you know.

This was a great place to have breakfast! So glad we came…read more We met the owner who is from Dayton Ohio. Now he owns 2 sunrise grill places. The place is decorated with famous sports pictures.

I highly recommend stopping here for either breakfast or lunch. Great job guys and gals!

Dreaming of a lovely lunch on the Rive Gauche, but stuck in central Florida? Come fill your soul…read morewith some Parisian pleasure. The Bistro dining room is charming and stylish. Generous seating and calm, peaceful music make for a very intimate setting to enjoy with dinning companions. We started off with the Charcuterie platter. Beautifully prepared and served/explained by Chef John. This included an oven fresh baguette, served in its own delightful paper bag. For entrées we shared the Beef Bourguigon, and Ratatouille. Both were delicious. I have so much respect for Chef John. Operating a small high end restaurant in 2026, must be the toughest job around. From the competition around him, the high cost of quality specialty foods, rent, staff and providing experiences. You can feel the love in every bite. Go treat yourself to a wonderful dinning experience. A Votre Sante' Chef John.

Mount Dora Bistro has the kind of warm, personal hospitality that makes you want to love the place…read more The owner and server were genuinely attentive--engaged, welcoming, and clearly invested in making guests feel comfortable. That level of care is increasingly rare, and it deserves real credit. Where the experience faltered, unfortunately, was the food. The prefix menu included many dishes, but most missed the mark. They felt lackluster, missing the depth, seasoning, or execution that would match the charm of the service. Nothing was outright bad, but nothing stood out either. It's the kind of meal that leaves you wishing the kitchen's ambition matched the front‑of‑house enthusiasm. It may have been an off night, but there was only one other couple in the place on a Friday dinner service, so that may have been a sign up front.
