“Ever since my wife and I found this gem we look forward to visiting The Crooked Bass every weekend! The food is always great and the staff has always been polite, attentive and fast!! Only thing (and it’s a small thing) is maybe better live music outdoors or a juke box for when there is no live music! All in all we love it and will keep coming back every weekend!!!”

“We eat here often. In the last couple months we have seen a dramatic improvement. The new manager is a breath of fresh air and a much needed improvement.”

“They have always taken care of me and they are excellent people. There is a good work environment and careful attention to all the cells, regardless of whether they are Latin, Mexican or American. I feel excellent.

Kid-friendliness: All children are welcome”

“Omg, I'm so excited I found this place.. Let me start off by saying me and my daughters are Thai and Cambodian so I guess we can get a little picky, but it just shows how much we appreciate good And authentic Thai food. Finding Thai restaurants here in Florida isn’t easy and it’s even harder to find good ones. We just moved over to this area from the Orlando area and I Was really shocked to find a Thai restaurant 20 minutes from my house. Since I am having surgery today yesterday, I ordered dinner to go and it was delicious. The spring rolls were perfect. My curry was so full of flavor and spicy but not ever powdering. I finished with the mango and sticky rice and I am so happy I did. I washed it Down with an iced coffee. I am so excited to order again. We will be repeat customers for sure, In fact, I am officially craving it as we speak so wish me luck on my surgery because my recovery meal is going to be Thai . Mmmmmmmmmmm”

“From the moment we walked in the door, we knew we hit the BBQ jackpot! John greeted my husband and I, recommending we try the Patriot, which consisted of FIVE different (DELICIOUS) meats, 3 savory sides, cornbread and Texas Toast. This was beyond a sampler platter, the meats were moist, tasty and smoked to absolute perfection. Their signature BBQ sauces were an added slice of Heaven. It didn’t stop there, the Mac n Cheese made my recipe look like chump change. The Brunswick Stew was beyond tasty, to the point that my Husband was actually speechless for a solid 4 minutes (thank you). Still going….While devouring the corn bread, John brought us a side of candy like tasting butter that was out of this world! We washed all this greatness down with the most refreshing fountain soda. Needless to say, the entire experience at Frostproof BBQ company was sheer perfection. My day is made and we’re already planning our next trip (which will include one of their deserts). Definitely recommend, a million outta 10! DELICIOUS! 😋”

“The bar tender, a little mouse of a man, was rude. Went out of his way to insure my draft was mostly foam! He even said he didn’t like me. Was a complete ass. Everything ven the other patrons noticed. Anyway I paid my bill and even tipped the little basterd!”

“I lived in Lake Wales for over twenty years and I love Al’s Place the friendliest bar in town, remind me of the old tv show “Cheers “ when everyone knows your name. The beer is cold, the food delicious and they give you plenty. On your first trip there you will get initiated with the yardstick and become a member of the family group. My son and daughter got me back in Pennsylvania as I age to see that I have proper care, but promise me every so often the would bring me back to Lake Wales to visit all my old friend. Looking forward to February at when they celebrate the the holiday Mardi Gras and have a great time with all my old friends…..It’s a pleasure…Thank You.”

“We are reluctant to try Mexican places because In most of them, the food is unnecessarily spicy hot. I understand that most Mexicans like spicy hot food, but the food itself did not have to be spicy as I learned in Mexico.
This place was a really nice discovery for us. The food is perfectly seasoned, no heat added while cooking, just flavor.
We tried several plates and all of them were just perfect.
The only downside, no alcohol other than beer.
We will be going back.”
