Great deli, I ordered the Rachel (pastrami Rueben) with extra meat, and 2 sides. Only $12! I was…read moreworried it wouldn't be a great sandwich with that low price point, luckily I was wrong it was great. Both the coleslaw and potato salad were delicious too. Old fashioned beer pub in back made for solid dinner when all I wanted was to eat then sleep. Cash only, though there is an ATM in the deli. I will be back.

Great local place for subs with a pub atmosphere. I've only gotten the sandwiches here but they…read morestand out from the crowd of your usual suspect chain sub places like subway and Jimmy John's. This would also be a great place to grab a beer and watch and game if you're in the middle for that. The sandwiches are fresh with the meat sliced when you order the sandwich. This is a cash only place so be aware of that. There is an atm if you don't have cash on hand. Definitely worth a try if you're in the area for lunch and in the mode for a sandwich. I recommend getting the sandwich toasted, but there is an option to get it cold.

What a great place for lunch. The whole place is wrapped in…read morewindows, not walls, so you can see if it's crowded or not, before you come in. I just happened to be near here and hungry, so when I saw that there were only three people in line, in I went. Everyone ordered quickly, so I was sitting down with my table number, before I knew it! I think I waited about ten minutes, before my food was sitting in front of me. My thin, hot ranch fries begging for ketchup, flanked a tall chicken sandwich that could only be eaten using a napkin wrap! Wow, what a first bite!! Crunchy, hot and delicious! Just as I am getting into the bulk of my lunch, about 20 people ramped into the place! Boy was I happy I got here when I did! Seeing how busy it is here from outside, with the large windows, is a plus! Get napkins and ketchup, before you sit down. They are on a caddy that is hard to miss. Great lunch place, lots of different places to sit, either inside or outside, and worth the trip, wherever you live!

After a dental appointment, my wife and I headed out to Germain's for lunch. Recommended by my…read moredentist and featured on DDD, we were looking forward to trying this place out. We walked in, checked out the menu and placed our orders after asking the woman behind the counter a couple of questions. My wife ordered their K.F.C. (Korean Fried Chicken) and I ordered the Angry Bird after asking about the spiciness level. The woman told me it's spicy but added that if you like spicy food then it's manageable. We also ordered Diet Coke (no Coke Zero) in a bottle and a La Croix drink in a can. No soda machine here. We were given a number to place on our table and waited for our meals...and waited...and waited some more. I think it must've been like 10-15 minutes before we were served our meals and we got there before the heavy lunch rush! We shrugged it off thinking, ooh, it's fresh out of the fryer and the chicken and fries will be piping hot. Nope! Our meals were warm but not hot. My wife liked the flavor of her KFC but didn't think Korean flavors really shined through. Having lived in Korea for a couple of years, I think she might have a good grip on Korean flavors. My angry bird was indeed angry! The spiciness level seemed like it was 7 or 8 out of 10. It was so spicy to me (and I love spicy food) that it had me sweating, with beads of sweat flowing down from my gleaming head. The spice level took away from the flavors. We really wanted to like this place but our experience made us think this might be a "one and done" thing for us. Lunch for 2 came out to just over $43 with tip.

One of my favorite places to grab dinner in Gainesville. I usually go for the burger (it's…read morephenomenal), but opted for the steak and it did not disappoint! We also tried to Dijon buffalo wings and they were also good. Always recommend getting a side of fries here - they are crispy and delicious!! I also tried one of their drink favorites - the Saturn. It was recommended to me by one of the staff and it was great as well as their cosmopolitan that had pomegranate. I always enjoy the ambiance here - it's good for date night or grabbing a bite with friends.

They give you a number and bring your food/drink to the table. Reasonable prices and great variety of craft cocktails. The burger was good, but I honestly liked the pork tacos more! Everyone at the table agreed that we would have liked the fries to be a bit crisper. Probably will return to try their cheese and charcuterie offerings!

Following a visit to the sprawling UF campus, my wife and I decided to try out The Spot for lunch…read more Located in a building housing other eateries and with limited "free" parking, we parked in the parking structure in the same building. As it was summer break, a lot of the other businesses in the building were closed (Vietnamese and Italian restaurant as well as a boba place). The place looks like it was being run by a hardworking couple. We checked out the menu and my wife ordered the Gyro Platter and I ordered the Souvlaki Platter. We also ordered a couple of fountain drinks. The gyro meat was well seasoned and tender. The Greek salad was quite good. The chicken souvlaki, however, seemed to lack flavor and a bit dry. Portions were quite generous and the value was there. We actually packed our leftovers for some quesadillas later. If we do go back, I would order the gyro instead of the chicken souvlaki. NOTE: They don't validate parking which was $3 for an hour

I've been for several of their themed menu including '80s Miami Vice, the (current) Harry Potter, and of course, their over-the-top Christmas menu. Honestly, the holiday season doesn't feel complete without a visit here for the festive lights and delicious seasonal drinks. The only downside? The decor can be a bit cheesy (looking at you, bubble mural), but the drinks more than make up for it. Definitely worth a visit if you're into well-crafted cocktails!

We had passed this place on the way to the lake and it seemed interesting, so I kept it on my short list of places to check out for lunch on the way back. It turns out it was the perfect fit after what ultimately proved to be a 14-mile trek! The place is located just off the main road and has a quaint feel to it with two dining rooms and a counter. Much like my other recent review, SweetBerries serves your standard lunch fare and also specializes in custard. As such, it served as perfect-pick-me-up on a day where the heat index was at 105F! You order what you'd like at the counter and a server will bring your food when it's ready. The establishment has fountains available for drinks. Staff was friendly and helpful throughout the experience. We got the SweetBerries Sunset custard with fresh fruit to share between the two of us, and wound up being the perfect frozen treat to get us back to the truck. Unlike her, I was also looking for an actual meal, so i chose to order the Chicken Salad on a croissant with mac salad. While the mac salad was simply ok, but flavor of the buttery croissant elevated quality the light and refreshing meal. If you find yourself in Gainesville with time for lunch or sweet treat, give this place a shot!

I tried the Hot Chick sandwich at SweetBerries and I'm still thinking about it. Their signature…read morechicken salad on toasted sourdough already sounded good, but the way they executed it was on another level. The bread was grilled perfectly, buttery, golden, and exactly the kind of crisp I love. The flavors were unreal. The crispy bacon added that salty, smoky crunch that hits immediately, the muenster cheese brought this smooth, melty richness, and the sweet onion and carrots added the perfect fresh bite. But the real surprise was the honey mustard. I'm a honey mustard lover, but I was honestly skeptical about how much they'd use or whether it would overpower everything. Instead, it was beautifully balanced, but just the right amount of sweetness to bounce off the savory bacon, the creamy chicken salad, and the buttery toast. Every flavor complemented the next, and it all came together in a way that genuinely surprised me. It ended up being one of the most amazing sandwiches I've ever had. I was mesmerized from the first bite to the last. SweetBerries really nailed this one.
