The price?? Worth every dime!“

“I was seeking an exceptional yet affordable dining experience and discovered this remarkable establishment in Deland. The hot dogs offered were incredibly flavorful and well worth the visit. The owner exhibited exceptional hospitality, and the staff member assisting us at the counter provided invaluable guidance in our selections.

“Urban Brick - DeLand, FL I've been in the restaurant business for over 40 years, and I don't often write reviews -- but Urban Brick really deserves one! I've been here several times now, and every visit has been fantastic. The food is absolutely amazing -- full of flavor and clearly made with care. They're known for their Italian dishes, and as someone who once owned an Italian restaurant myself, I can honestly say they're doing it right. The service is excellent too -- friendly, attentive, and genuine. Last night I had the Spaghetti Bolognese, which was just perfect. My cousin had the catch of the day and said it was incredible. We finished with the tiramisu, and it was the perfect ending to a great meal. Huge thanks to whoever runs this wonderful place. You're doing an outstanding job. Can't wait to come back!“

This place has been around for as long as I've lived here (decades) and they do one thing and they do it exceptionally.

“🔥🔥 food is on point🔥🔥🔥🔥🍺🍤“

“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...“

“My goto when I don’t want to worry about wanting a good meal. With plenty of food options there is always something to cure my hunger. Always great customer service. Always a great meal! Mike and Sonny make you feel like friends whenever you’re in this establishment.“

“Todo es delicioso y la atención ni hablar. 10 de 10“

“Had such a great time at Swamp House Riverfront Grill today! Sat at the bar with an old friend and everything was on point. Huge shoutout to Hailey, our bartender — she was amazing and really made the experience. We had burgers and key lime pie (so good), and she even let us try some gator bites — delicious! Great food, great vibe, and truly top-notch service. Definitely recommend this place, especially if you get the chance to sit at the bar with Hailey! 👏🍔🥧“

You 2 women should be teaching the rest how to give the best customer service from the way they take the order with such politeness and energy like they love what they do and love us the customer to the accuracy and speed!! I will definitely come back. You ladies rock!!!“
