33 Best American Restaurants near De Leon Springs

“The staff is AWESOME!! The food is OUTSTANDING! I drive about 45 minutes to get here and enjoy every minute of being there. They are very customer oriented. Very highly recommend.“

“The food and service are not an issue both are outstanding. This is a theme restaurant a theme I like I am old South? nostalgia means a lot to me I am certainly willing to pay anyone who can take me back to my childhood this place does just that. I have gotten to old to deal with crowds we go places like this in the off season. I would receive a bit of modernization reservations required and observed. The 18 percent gratuity has not been an issue because we have not had a bad experience if there is a manager on site to speak with should there be a problem there behavior would decide if we returned. Been going for year's I do believe the new management is a vast improvement.“

“The chili cheeseburger was Awesome, absolutely perfect. I’m so used to being disappointed by the burgers at restaurants the Half Wall burger was a welcome surprise. The service by Phoebe was very good too.“

“My son and I came to eat breakfast here on a whim.I had the Crab Benny. Can't remember what my son had b/c my head was in the CLOUDS!! They could have told me to sit on a stump outside to finish eating. I WOULD have! I live near to twisted biscuit diner in Tavares.Have eaten there often. THE biscuit at Deland Eatery!! Why go to TB anymore? I am forever spoiled by the quality and freshness.Light perfect biscuit. Why were they out of biscuits another reviewer asked ? Go eat before noon here. You will have eaten perfection!!“

“Gator bites were delicious,I grew up on the river. Been going to Shady Oak (Sloan's) ever since it first opened in the 60'S.“

“Semi new to the area and was looking for a good wing spot. This place nailed it. The wings were very large. The flavor was on point. I'll be back for sure. It think the wings are near double the size of hooligans wings. Staff was nice, place was clean. When I first walked in I though I went to a Chinese food spot on accident, but they have it there as well. I'll try that sometime when I'm in the mood. Can't wait to have more wings from here!!“

“This restaurant has unfair business practices! I've been 4 times and every time I think it will be different...but each time they pad their bill....so beware and check....The charges on the bill have been higher than what's on the menu...Today they charged 75 cents for dressing on a salad....not extra dressing...Dressing always comes with a salad...Then there was a total of over $1 added for ingredients published on the menu as coming with the salad. Every time I have questioned the server they say the manager is not there...I guess the restaurant runs itself. No adjustment and of course it makes the tax higher. So, to make it up, no tip ...I usually over tip but was so disgusted. To have this happen 4 times is not a mistake.... Don't go there...“

“Great place! We love their Baby Back ribs!!“

“Can we say delicious!?!? The drive through service was off the charts!!

The food was even better!!! Recently, we've found ourselves purchasing fast-food...yup is what it is...life right!?!

Anywho, the food was fresh, tasty and delicious!!! We got the chicken sandwiches one fried and grilled, both super amazing! The fries were tasty, the pretzel bites were also Incredible!!! The bites were an option in place of the fries. Great option!!!

The service is quick, friendly and appreciated. We've tried several Culver's and they have all presented themselves the same...simply amazing!“

“This locally owned bar grill was amazing. German food. The cuts of meat are delicious and they perfectly cook it how you want it. No drink list but that's kind of expected at a small bar grill. Waitress and owner are very kind and friendly. Will be going back !“

My party and I were kind of all over the place and unorganized. I apologized for my parties incompetencebut still, she was a delight to have and it was over a warm and welcoming“

“We try to make it to Cook’s every time we’re in Deland! Best restaurant anywhere!!! Top rate service!!!“

“Nice Restaurant“

“Very disappointed, you'd think ordering a steak here they would cook it to the right temp. They didn't even get it close, by time we were checked on again and offered a refire. Which I am honesty not a fan of for many reasons. My son had already finished eating. So I'd requested boxes and to speak with a manager. After the manager admitted they did not even get it close to medium, but it was a perfect rare. Which I had not ordered due to my inability to eat a rare steak because of my dentures. His reasoning was because sometimes when they get an evening rush this kinda thing happens. This was not a satisfactory response for me. If you are going to charge me $35 dollars for a steak, there is no reason why it should not be cooked correctly! We drove up from Ormond Beach hungry and I left feeling tha same way. Just 70$ less in my pocket. :-/ ha“

“Visiting the area. 1st time at a Waffle House. Good food & great service.“

“Great service and food! I 100% recommend!!“

“Ordered wings here. I think I have found my new wing spot“

“Had an excellent lunch bike week, food far exceeded our expectations we ordered a bunch of things off the small bites menu to try mostly for the kids and sandwiches for ourselves, everything was delicious, service took a bit longer than typical but my goodness they were so excellent once they realized how long we’d be waiting. Truly a customer focused establishment with excellent food. 10/10 recommend“
