The Diavola had a nice kick and felt a little adventurous in a good way. The Pepperoni was solid and reliable, exactly what you expect. Now the calzone... not for me. I was expecting a classic cheese-forward situation, but this was more of a chaotic mash-up of ingredients that didn't quite come together. Felt like a pizza identity crisis folded in half. The crust is worth noting, it has that cornmeal-style texture. If you like a slightly gritty, rustic bite, you'll be into it. Overall, good flavor, just know what you're ordering. Next time, I'm sticking to the pizzas and leaving the calzone in the box.

The salad dressing for the house salad was awesome, and I could have eaten more salad (which isn't normal). But then the pizza came and wow is all I can say. I got the carnivore and I only wish it was bigger or I ordered a second one. It was some of the best wood fired pizza I've ever had and you can tell the meat was high quality, it was just random meat crap on there. I will be back.

Italian food review at Positano Italian Restaurant in DeLand!…read more We tried the chicken parmigiana and penne alla vodka with chicken. Lunch came to $39 before tip, including a Diet Coke and water. The food was good, and I'd give the taste an 8/10. However, I was hoping for a little more of a "wow" factor, especially in the presentation. I'll admit I'm a tough critic when it comes to Italian cuisine because of my Italian background! Overall, Positano is worth a second visit. Next time, I'll try something different and see if I find that extra-special dish. Our server was attentive and did a great job!

The dough was light with a good texture, and the marinara and cheese combo worked really well together. We tried the pepperoni with extra cheese, the Chicago-style traditional hand tossed pizza, and the Stromboli. The Stromboli was especially cool because they serve it in individual rolls instead of one giant piece. Such a smart idea and perfect for sharing as a group appetizer. Even with just cheese, the flavor was excellent. The prices were very reasonable for the amount and quality of food we got. Overall, everything came together really well flavor-wise, and the order online and pickup experience felt worth it from start to finish. This will likely become my new go-to pizza spot in the DeLand area.

Abbey Bar is located in Deland, we recently visited with some friends who live closer to the area…read more This was quite the drive for us in Winter Garden, so I don't think it would be a place we would go a lot but we did enjoy our time there. This will definitely be a place to go when we visit our friends. This is what the name implies, a bar, nothing else. They have tables, seating at the bar and high-top tables. They have a few food options, mostly appetizers with a few sandwiches and quesadillas. We did not get any food since we had just eaten dinner. Apparently, their cowboy candy is the most popular item, its candied jalapenos over cream cheese with crackers. Maybe next time. They do sell bottle beer; it is really what most of the alcohol consists of. They do have their menu divided into categories so if you know what you are looking for it helps. They also have draft beer which rotates throughout the year, so there might be something new on the menu. I personally am not a huge fan of specialty beer like sours, and porters, but my husband is so he really enjoyed looking through the different options. I honestly cannot remember the two beer my husband tried but I know one had a really high ABV and the other one was really sour. He seemed to enjoy both, so I guess that's good. I choose to get a glass of wine instead. They have only a few wine options but also have mead. I have never had it before, but our friends were very much fans of it. The wine selection is small, but I just went with a Moscato. All in all, this is a fine bar if you are in the area. I would say if you were not a beer fan this might not be for you. They do not make any liquor style drinks only beer and wine. All in all, not bad, we would for sure go back when visiting friends in the area.

Looking for pizza? Look no further. We've been coming to…read morethis spot since the early 1990s--back when it may have had a different name--but one thing hasn't changed: it's consistently been a great place for pizza (with the usual beer and wine to round things out). The interior hasn't changed much over the years. The flooring and booths look just as I remember, though the tables in the back might be newer. Either way, it's clean--and that's what counts. It's actually a bit nostalgic... like stepping into a time capsule where the pizza never let you down. We stopped in around 3:30 on a Friday and were surprised to find it incredibly busy for that time of day. No problem--the staff handled the crowd like pros. And while the pizza is very good (which is the main event), don't overlook the service: professional, friendly, and fast. Prices have always been fair--something that feels almost nostalgic these days too. So really... why go anywhere else for a pie? Enjoy!

Honestly, that's the best way to do it because you get to experience two incredible sandwiches in one meal. Both were packed with flavor, made with high-quality ingredients, and far exceeded our expectations. The fries were cooked perfectly--crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. They also serve a house-made tomato ketchup that's a little sweeter than traditional ketchup, and it's a fun, unique touch if that's your style. Service was just as impressive as the food. The staff was genuinely welcoming, attentive without being overbearing, and checked in at all the right times to make sure we had everything we needed. I also enjoyed a fantastic black iced coffee from Trilogy Coffee. One of our favorite surprises was that our server brought us complimentary boiled peanuts. Neither of us had ever tried boiled peanuts before, and they were absolutely incredible! It was such a thoughtful Southern touch that made the experience even more memorable. Great food, generous portions, very reasonable prices, friendly people, a clean restaurant, and a relaxed atmosphere. Hunters & Gatherers is the kind of local place you hope to find, and we'll definitely be back. Highly recommend!

Hospitality was top notch. We had a reservation and were sat right away at a table near the kitchen. I love when you can see into the kitchen and watch everything. You know that's a restaurant that trusts what they make and has nothing to hide. Our server was AMAZING. He was the kindest guy and constantly made sure we had everything we needed. He made our night with his fun energy. The food was phenomenal. The restaurant provides elevated boiled peanuts on the table to snack. The flavor was great. I ordered the jumbo lump crab cakes that comes with 2 decent size crab cakes packed with crab meat. As sides, I ordered the caesar brussels and potatoes. The sides were great and the potatoes were a combination of different potatoes which I liked. My mom had the chicken and dumplings and she had rave reviews to give. This is a great spot for a date night, a place to make a dinner feel more elevated, or to celebrate something. Thank you for the great experience and service.

I don't know if it's the hectic traffic or because I am heading south and the entrance is on the opposite side of the road; regardless, what I can tell you is that I have been missing out because Gaff's is freaking awesome! First of all, the shop is kept in immaculate order and very clean. There is adequate space in between isles allowing ample room for customers to shop. The staff are friendly and are quick to assist when needed; however, if you're here to purchase meats or deli items, be sure to take a number at the door. Gaffs has an extensive selection of butchered meats to choose from such as: - Pork Products: sausage, bratwurst, port tenderloin, pork country ribs, pork roasts, stuffed pork chops, baby back ribs, ground pork, and ground sausage. - Beef Products: Porterhouse, T-bones, New York strip, Tenderloin, Ribeye, Ribs, ground beef, brisket, Roasts, flat iron steak, sirloin, cube steak, flank steak, London broil, chuck eye steak, stew cut beef. - Poultry Products: whole chicken, quartered chicken pieces, multiple pieces wings/thighs by the pound, stuffed chicken breasts, marinated chicken, whole duck, duck breasts, quail, Cornish game hen, and turkey. - Seafood: a variety of salmon, yellowfin tuna, flounder, red drum, red snapper, cod, scallops, a variety of shrimp with and without the shell, clams, oysters, king crab legs, and a decent selection of frozen seafood items. Honestly, the list goes on and on. Gaffs has everything! They have fresh sliced deli meats, fresh vegetables, ready to cook stuffed mushrooms, homemade pot pies and pies, pizzas, soups, dips, hot sauces, BBQ sauces, cheeses, pickles, desserts, cakes, pre-made meals, and so much more. On my most recent visit, I picked up 1lb of hot Italian sausage and 1lb of sweet Italian sausage ($5.49 per lb each) for a low country boil we were throwing together for a party. We grilled the sausage, let it cool, sliced it, and added it to the boil which gave the dish a wonderful flavor and heat everyone enjoyed. It was difficult trying to keep the masses back as the sausage was coming off the grill, LOL. I plan to return to Gaffs soon! I look forward to purchasing some of their steaks, pot pies, and other specialty items for upcoming dinner events. If you have never been to Gaff's before, I highly recommend stopping in to see what they have to offer.

I've been a customer at Gaff's for years, but my recent pre-order experience has unfortunately…read moreended that relationship. I ordered 5 lbs of bone-in short ribs weeks in advance for Thanksgiving--at the staff's own suggestion when I inquired about availability. I provided my pickup date and time as requested, and received two confirmation calls leading up to the holiday. Despite all this preparation, the actual pickup was frustrating and disorganized. When I arrived at my scheduled time on the day before Thanksgiving, the shop was using the standard take-a-number system that completely ignored appointment times. The chaos was predictable--dozens of customers were there for pre-orders--but the system failed at multiple points. Numbers were called too quietly in a loud, crowded shop, and the LED display wasn't consistently updated. Staff gave customers mere seconds to respond before moving to the next number, causing people to be skipped repeatedly. I waited 40 minutes past my scheduled pickup time. When I finally reached the counter, my order wasn't prepared. After weeks of advance notice and multiple confirmations, they had a 3 lb package and a 12 lb package available--neither matching my 5 lb order. I settled for 6 lbs (half of the larger package), which required additional cutting and another 10-minute wait. What's most disappointing is that this was entirely preventable. The day before Thanksgiving is obviously their busiest day of the year, but it's also completely predictable. Pre-orders were advertised in-store for over a month. Simple measures--dedicated staff for pre-orders, a separate pickup area, orders prepared ahead of time--would have prevented this chaos. Instead, the staff seemed dismissive when confronted with their lack of preparation. I understand holiday rushes can overwhelm any business, but this wasn't a rush--it was a failure to plan for a workload they actively solicited and had weeks to prepare for. For a business that asks customers to plan ahead with pre-orders, I expected them to do the same. I won't be returning.
