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.

Absolutely worth going off the beaten path for…read more We stumbled across Public & General while looking for somewhere in Gainesville with good vegetarian options, and the first thing that caught my attention was the fried green tomato sandwich. I saw that on the menu and immediately thought, "Yep. We're going there." And I'm so glad we did. The only thing I would change about the experience is the ordering process. You have to place your order at the bar first, take a number, and then seat yourself so they know where to bring your food. Personally, I would prefer traditional table service, but once we got past that, the food completely won me over. We ordered the fried green tomato sandwich, and it was delicious. Then there were the dill fries. Fresh dill on French fries sounded interesting enough that we had to try them, and they were AMAZING. Such a simple idea, but different from the usual fries you get everywhere else and executed really well. But the biggest surprise of the entire meal? THE COUSCOUS. My partner ordered the vegetable couscous with mushrooms, zucchini and squash, and when I tell you this was the best couscous I have ever had... I mean it. It was so good that before we left, we ordered another one to go. That alone should tell you everything. I love finding restaurants that take familiar ingredients and do something memorable with them. Nothing we had felt boring or like an afterthought, especially the vegetarian options. Public & General feels like one of those neighborhood places you could easily miss if you didn't know it was there, but now that we know about it, it has officially made our Gainesville rotation. We don't get to Gainesville often, but anytime we're back in town, we're stopping here. Fried green tomato sandwich: Dill fries: Vegetable couscous: Seriously... get the couscous. We literally took another order home.

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 hate to leave bad reviews, but I think want to be honest. I came to The Spot recently for lunch…read moreand was not happy with my experience. Located in midtown, this appears to a fast casual place that caters towards college students. They serve "Greek" street food, salads, quesadillas, burgers, and more. The food is relatively inexpensive. Service is fine, actually the people working there are friendly. Food is made to order and comes out quickly. There is some seating available inside (it's limited) but there are plenty of tables in the hall. I ordered the Street Chicken Souvlaki which included grilled chicken with tomato, onion, fries inside a pita, topped with ketchup and mustard. This was a very large portion. The pita was good, but pretty much fell apart the second I picked it up. While I liked the chicken, it was over seasoned and I didn't care for the "sauced" quality of it. I'm not sure if they marinated it or tossed it in some sauce, but it was too much. The fries were decent, but not super crispy. I felt that they were not necessarily and a little over-the-top. The tomato was fresh and but the red onion slices were very thick. The mustard and ketchup didn't work with the seasonings on the chicken. The dish was just all over the place and I couldn't even finish half of it before I started feeling sick. I ordered a side of onion rings as well. This was a large order and the size was great. But these onion rings were over-battered and were fresh, but not crispy at all. I bit into one and ended up pulling out the whole onion rings. Not good. Overall, I was very disappointed with my experience. The food was so heavy and overly salted I couldn't even eat half of it. I ended up giving it to a homeless person on the way out. The food left my stomach in shambles the rest of the day. Service is fine. But the food is not desirable. It is safe to say I will not be returning, which is unfortunate.

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 know I know, it was a long time coming and I regret that! I went around lunch time on a Wednesday so it wasn't too crowded but if you're familiar with the area, you know sometimes it can be difficult to make a left hand turn into the parking lot. There were a few people inside already eating and then a few waiting who had already ordered. I knew what I wanted to order beforehand so I walked right up to the counter. I created a regular size Philly for my dad with onions, peppers, mayo, and provolone cheese and then got a double smash burger for myself. That burger? AMAZING. I wholeheartedly support that being in the running for best burger in GNV. I still think about it daily. It was truly mouthwatering and perfect. I also got a 20oz frozen four berry lemonade which was delicious and very fitting for how hot it has been. I got the Philly for my dad as he doesn't live here and he thoroughly enjoyed it. Needless to say I will be back for myself, and whenever my parents are in town. Highly recommend!
