“Just called Rivers Lakeland to place a pick up order. Man answered the phone. Stated they don't take orders by phone have to do online. Told him I tried that wouldn't work. Said that's how they do take out. I've been going to 4 Rivers for years. Was ordering for six people over $100. Told him I'll find some place else to order from. Won't be back.“

“Papa Diesel's represents the old fashioned flavor and taste of what real BBQ is all about. Their menu is full of variety with Chef Diesel's specialties, filled with his own style or twist on them. My favorite is the tender, fall off the bone ribs! My slogan is " Don't need "teeth" to eat their meat! Delicious food is their goal and trust me, "Mission Accomplished!"“

“Yum, Yum, Yum! I was invited to lunch at Papa Diesel's Restaurant on my visit to Apopka, FL. From the moment I entered the restaurant, the entire experience was a treat. A friendly family atmosphere greeted me at the door, with the added touch of care that was immaculately given to every detail. The aroma from the kitchen activated my taste buds, as I stared mesmerized by the extensive menu. Finally, I decided to go for the “Diesel Sampler”. The brisket was so succulent that it melted in my mouth. The ribs fell from the bone with such flavor that no sauce was necessary—the pulled pork I used to sample the homemade sauces. As I was told, the sauces will soon be available in the local supermarkets (as I can attest to becoming a family staple). Needless to say, the sausage, chicken, and sides all met with the same flavorful standards. Ending my meal with a dessert, I enjoyed the peach cobbler and shared a nibble of key lime cake with my date. It was an enjoyable afternoon, sharing special time with loved ones in a loving environment, dining on food prepared by Papa Diesel, who loves to cook for folks, and making them feel at home!“

“4Rivers catering is exceptional! We have used them several times, but most recently they catered a large, fancy birthday party for us. When they catered our wedding and rehearsal dinner I didn’t get to see their day of organization. But for our party I watched their implementation in action and it was flawless. They are a well-oiled, unified machine. Sarah was a delight to work with throughout the entire planning process. She repeatedly went above and beyond to help me with the details of our event. She was extremely organized and responsive. I trusted her completely. But the day of our party, she somehow transferred all of those little details into every member of her team. They each knew exactly what to do and understood my vision perfectly, while at the same time they were humble, attentive, and helpful. Any time I spoke to one of the crew members, the others would all lean in eagerly and listen cheerfully to any directions I had. They were quick to respond and very detail oriented. Any time they saw me looking for someone, within minutes a crew member was by my side asking how they could help. All of the food displays were elevated and elegant. It was leagues beyond typical BBQ. The food was delicious but also sophisticated, clever, and fun. The way they styled the layouts were beautiful and classy. Everything was perfect for our party. I could not have asked for anything better. Our guests repeatedly commented on the excellent food and service. The food was everything I hoped for, but the service of the crew exceeded anything I could have dreamed. They made sure I was enjoying the event too. After months of planning, they wanted all of my dreams to come true. They wanted the event to be a success as much as I did. They helped to shoulder my stress and ensure that every detail was perfect. I have never worked with a more wonderful and attentive crew. They made our event exceptional! I cannot recommend 4Rivers catering highly enough. The other vendors for our party were frustrating and disappointing, but 4Rivers went above and beyond to make up for their slack. Their excellence is why we use 4Rivers again and again. We are never disappointed.“

“Family of 6 around 2:45 pm eating at longhorn on Lockwood and again it doesn’t disappoint. Can’t wait to be back for our next event. Thank you to the manager and our server. It was Wonderful being here. Thank you. The Brussels sprouts are delicious.“

“We were in Altamonte Springs for a few days, and on Tuesday we had dinner at Longhorn's. Have not been disappointed and always look forward to returning. Great atmosphere and service. We had mostly appetizers, wild west shrimp, lobster and crab chowder, house salad, wings, and spinach dip always delicious.“

“Went in for the first time this evening and the huli huli chicken is fantastic!!! A great meal and fantastic service! Instant fan this evening.“

“If you are a real old school Floridian that grew up here, this place will take.you back! This was my first time visiting Keller's. I got the sliced beef dinner. I can tell you that was the exact plate of BBQ and sauce that I remember eating when I was young, before Sonnys changed and Fat Boys went under. Very nostalgic. The most enjoyable lunch that I have had in the last 20+ years quite honestly. Anytime im am anywhere near Keller's in the future, I will definitely be stopping by for a plate!“

“Waitress was great! Atmosphere great! Good great! Enjoyed it very much!“

“Stopped for an appetizer and a drink w my husband, I ended up ordering the filet and lobster w brussel sprouts to split. It was perfectly done and the butter/oil sauce was a nice touch. As usual, the bread was hot and the service was good at the bar. Sep 24@5:30 pm“

“If we could, we would give this place a 10! We had the best experience. Excellent food and service. Hannah was a wonderful server and the manager, Kim was very attentive to the guests and helping the servers. We've been there before, but this was the best time. Food was hot and delicious. A great restaurant with a great team.] Thanks, See you again!“
