50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Fruitland Park

“We have been going to Los Reyes for taco Tuesday for past few weeks. The hard shells are not ordinary corn shell. They are just great. My husband loves enchiladas; he says these are done if the best he has tasted!! Give the new Fruitland Park location a try.“

“Out of town visitors, noticing a parking lot full of cars was a calling for us to stop. We were not disappointed the restaurant was full of charm and wonderful aroma. We were lucky enough to sit at the bar with locals and have the best female bartender! Forgot to mention…the pizza was amazingly good!“

“We dined there this evening. Wonderful food and very friendly people. They smoke their own meats with Black Jack wood and it is outstanding. Their sides are wonderful, just like mama meant them to be. There are other menu items besides BBQ, but that is their mainstay. The atmosphere is like home, very comfortable, and very positive signs in the restaurant dining area. These are very down-home people who know how to make your tummy happy. Super good place. Best BBQ anywhere around. We are from Texas originally where BBQ is king. This is better.“

“The Polish deli here in Leesburg is awesome. The ladies that sell the products are very nice and the food is delicious. Love this place...“

“Server was Tiana. Great service. Breakfast was the worst. They don't offer hashbrowns. Home ? our small frozen dehydrated potatoes, then fried. Biscuit and gravy, the worst ever. Pancakes great. At 940am 10 tables ONE (1) server. Really bad.“

“Such a delightful small town diner. Food was delicious and staff was very accommodating.“

“Paul makes excellent CBD Products 😀“

“Tatiana was our waitress and she was awesome. Super helpful made great recommendations. Gave service with a smile. Also enjoyed lady at front desk nice greeting a smile as we came I and as we were leaving. Error in food was not that bad. A+ on the spinach crab dip loved it so much. We got some to go to have tomorrow at home. One in our group said the chicken sandwich is smaller than what she’s had there in the past but still was delicious. Shrimp was good after we got our original order the guest said delicious in fact. Muffalatta sandwich bun was cold. The inside of the sandwich was so cold. It was cold in the middle. with thin thin slice of ice in the middle of the sandwich coming from Louisiana that one disappointed Me. It had all of the right taste in the sandwich.“

“Beer was good. Service was spectacular.“

“This a great place for extra healthy food and it's thumbs up yummy!.“

“Love this place. Highly recommend!“

“LOVED coming here today! The atmosphere was just incredible, I will come again for the same experience!!“

“We were on a road trip looking for some good food and oh boy, did we find it. Everything was hot and delicious!!! We enjoyed the bbq nachos (with 3 kinds of meat!) and the sampler appetizer. They were generous portions and prepared perfectly and served with tasty sauces. The staff was attentive, friendly, and helpful.“

“Precisely how I feel when I discover there actually is a phenomenal plant based food and drink establishment in The Villages!!!! 🙌🏼 Had another fabulous meal and some lovely Peppermint Lavender kombucha. We also met some great folks from the Plant based club here in TV as well. Mele Kalikimaka form Leahi Health The Villages! May you end this year with love and gratitude in your heart and usher 2026 in with good friends and good health! 🏝️ ❤️“

“Definitely a fine dining establishment with a price to match. However the food was incredible! Everything was cooked to perfection, flavors were amazing, good selection. Also unlike most fine dining the portions were large and the sides are not a la carte.
Servers were very nice, attentive, & knowledgeable.

Will be a repeat customer!“

“Me and my wife had an awesome experience last night ! The food was great we both had the fish and chips and the baklava was to die for ! Our waitress name was Jessica she delivered excellent service . We had a wonderful time we will definitely be back !“

“Great place to meet friends for lunch, dinner or drinks. Fridays fish dinner is the best in town. Everything on the menu is wonderful.“

“Always excellent Service, Food and Price.\nHad the eggs and hash with potatoes and whole wheat toast along with a hit cup of tea.\nDon't know where these reviewers with the negative reviews go for their breakfasts because I, along with hundreds of others, enjoy the fantastic breakfasts at Billy's Cafe“

“We went to the Fiests Grande restaurant today (2-1-25). Somebody told the manager that my husband was stealing a cup that was on another table. My husband saw the cup and was showing me how cool it was (we are seniors and if my husband liked a cup that he saw he would have asked our server if the restaurant sold them, we do not have to steal. Nor were we dressed poorly.) So, the manager came over to us, and demanded to look in my husband's bag. I felt so bad for my husband! The look on his face! He was mortified! She did not find a cup, because my husband did not take anything. She embarrassed my husband and me in front of everyone. I approched the manager and told her she was out of line and she told me she had to protect her customers...well, my husband and I were also her customers, she didn't protect us from public humiliation! She also told me " I am Mexican, I know how it feels. I don't know what she meant by that. We will never visit that restaurant again, and probably won't go to Mt. Dora again either! Needless to say, our beautiful day was ruined.“

“looking forward to go into it.“

“I love going as often as I can, they are a small cozy cafe, they have great food, great people. I highly recommend. Found this place last year and I've loved it since. Their hours are a little difficult for my schedule but, it's ran by about 3 people so I understand.“

“I know, I know, no one expects good food at a food court. I’m a huge lover of gyros. We were in the mall and I had a chance to get one so of course I did.
The gyro meat was more flavorful than most. Very nice crispy edges. I literally saw the pita come out of a pack and onto the grill, and I don’t expect hand made breads at the mall. But whatever brand or source it was from was terrific. The texture was spot on, not too heavy, with perfect browning from the grill.

I’ve been to full on sit-down gyro restaurants that weren’t this satisfying to eat.

The gentleman was upbeat, helpful and engaging. A very nice encounter.

I’d absolutely eat there again next time I’m near by.“

“Best breakfast I’ve ever had! Everything was fresh and perfectly seasoned!“

“Met friends there for lunch. Do not waste your time and money...my opinion....some thought it was ok.... crowded, disorganized, no place to sit, food ordered at the register, no staff, slow operation very slow food "handed out." So called garden area dirty with critters dropping from trees. Reuben lunch in the garbage.“

“food & drinks are fantastic, great outdoor atmosphere, prices are great too, enjoy 😉“

“Love this place! Excellent drinks, the staff is super friendly and the food is wonderful. We try to order something different every time we come here. I have never had a bad meal at this place. And it makes me want to come back for more! The Texas burrito is only $23 and it is enormous and could feed you for 2 to 3 days.“

“Great place for Eating, MUSIC and Dancing 💃 👌“

“This is my absolute favorite sushi place. The service is always wonderful and the food is phenomenal. I couldn’t recommend it enough!“

“I'm picky about my fried shrimp and it was excellent. The slaw, potato salad, and half and half tea were good also. Beautiful day to sit outside and have some lunch for a reasonable price. Christine waited on me and she was the best.“

“this place is so yummy, best tacos ever“

“I loved Dawn as our server! She was amazing and very attentive. She answered ALL of my questions and helped with every little thing we needed. She was also very sweet and seemed genuine in her interactions. She really went above and beyond her role in serving our table and we are excited to see her when we come back. Thanks Dawn! Hope you see this ❤“

“Always excellent food ,great atmosphere , timely and friendly service“

“Tonight the back of house has made our day by their dancing and singing put smiles on lots of faces, It was so awesome to see these hard workers having a good time with the guest. Great job kitchen!“

“Love it here! Grits are amazing!!!“

“My business partner, and I had lunch to have a quick business meeting at square 1. The Service Big A was exceptional. She was friendly and helpful without being intrusive to our conversation. We will certainly look for her the next time we’re in and request to sit in her area.“

“This was my family's first time at Takis. The food was excellent and our server name Christine was really awesome we will be back.“

“Great pizza.“

“Never had a meal there that I did not thoroughly enjoy!!! Jen is a jewel!“

“This comment is regarding Mark at Store 8546. My wife and I have been going to this location for the last 4 years. It is the only pizza place that we go to. The service from Mark is professional but also very friendly and welcoming. He walks to our table to check on us to see how we are enjoying our order. He shares his humor with interesting and fun stories. Mark is a great manager.“

“A quaint place to have lunch.“

“buen cervicio delicioso la comida gracias“

“Walked in and sat at the bar, Clara was our server. Our food came quickly and was awesome. I had the Slawpy Pig which is pork bbq topped with slaw. Very tender great tasting sandwich. Clara was excellent and made our visit very enjoyable.“

“Rjs is located right on prime real estate! Located in lake Sumter landing square right on the water! Sometimes you can actually see a gator swim by, live singer from 2-5pm at the outside bar everyday! Highly recommend checking out their entertainment of the day. $4.25 on most drafts. $6-8 mixed drinks. $4 wines. Food is great, many options, more than just sea food! Wings are huge! Also, fried items can come GRILLED!!!! For all the GF people you know how amazing that can be! Service is fantastic! Give them a try. Oh and the gator tail pie 🤌🏻 out of this world it has all the tables around you buzzing with attention and curiosity!“

“Darrell's Diner is a good spot for a quick meal if you are in a bit of a rush. You are greeted with a smile from the very moment that you enter the door and seated like a gentle warm summer breeze. My waitress Ali catered to my every need and was very attentive to helping out a lost soul such as mine around the menu. My experience by far enjoyable and stress free. This is my recommended for great service and wonderful staff“
