“To start off, Mikka is awesome!! She is my fav. Great sports bar and grill. To start off with, it's not so dark that I trip over every thing. Good atmosphere, excellent service and friendly. I had the hamburger sliders. I'm so happy they know how to toast the buns properly. Butter them up and put them on the grill. Makes a huge difference in the way a burgers tastes. Tons of TVs and most all of them are big screens. Don't have to worry about trying to find my favorite team only to be disappointed that they're on the 32-in in the corner. Not going to happen here. You'll be happy. I was happy. I'll be back and be happier“

“Finally made it to Funnel Feasts (with Feasts of Persia at Union Hall)! I chose the s’more funnel cake and it was delicious. The staff and customer service were absolutely incredible. They would’ve been great for a restaurant but for a food truck they were really outstanding. They took the time to explain their menu to us and give recommendations. They even came out to check on things after we had been eating for a while. Everything tasted fresh and ingredients were good quality. I think the prices were very fair too. Definitely recommend checking them out if you get the opportunity!“

“Restaurant with a mechanical workshop theme, very nice. The details of the restaurant are very well cared for. Very clean and the service is quality. The burgers are made with high-quality, Gourmet-type ingredients. The wait time to enter was not long, as was the arrival of the food. It has a large parking lot. Recommended to go with family. I was able to enter with my dog.Restaurant with a mechanical workshop theme, very nice. The details of the restaurant are very careful. Very clean and the service is quality.

Not only does Philly Steak and Wing rival the best I’ve had, they have a great atmosphere in there as well with top notch staff. In addition, their Wings are meaty, fried to perfection and many flavors to choose from! Give them a try and you won’t be disappointed!“

“Overall I'd give this place a 5 if the service wasn't so poor. It's slow and inefficient, with frequent forgetting of items.The food however is delicious and extremely cheap. Think McDonald's cheap but even cheaper. The quality is good and portions are great. We spent about $10/pp and left full.The overall dining area is clean as well as restroom. Parking is easy.Really wish I could give it a 5 but the wait time to even get the check is crazy. Took almost 15 minutes of standing at the counter in front of 3 waitresses to just pay the bill and leave.I'll come back some time and hopefully can bump this to a 5. We came on a week day, I'd hate to see it on a weekend.Parking: Easy parkingKid-friendliness: YesWheelchair accessibility: Yes“

“This location, Wendy’s Restaurant #00011861 at 00011861 Innovation Drive, is an excellent little quick meal restaurant. Our group of three diners enjoyed a great meal together whilst leaving Orlando area, and were pleasantly surprised, as most quick-dining experiences leave much to be desired. The dining area was remarkably clean and well maintained.Most important: Wonderful Staff and management. It was refreshing to actually go to a fast food joint and see actual adults managing and participating actively in running this restaurant, (in comparison with competitors like McDonald’s or Burger King, which notoriously are run by teenagers… here, the adults were supervising/training the younger staff members, which again seemed to make a huge distinction from all other Wendy’s I have been to in a lifetime).That was most of our first fast food meal in a very long time and it definitely restored a little faith that not all fast food is terrible as an occasional treat.“

“This IHOP location deserves a shoutout! Their service was fantastic – friendly, attentive, and made sure everything was perfect. But the real star of the show was the Pancake of the Month – the Girl Scout Thin Mint pancakes.Wow! These green beauties were incredible. The pancakes themselves were fluffy and delicious, and the toppings were the perfect match. The creamy cheesecake mousse added a delightful tang, and the real Thin Mint cookie pieces on top were the ultimate touch. They were so flavorful, I didn't even need syrup!This is a must-try for any Thin Mint lover, or anyone looking for a fun and delicious breakfast experience.“

The burgers are made to eat pretty easily lettuce wrapped and everything comes on it that you order. I also saw someone eating just the meat and cheese in a container, so they have that option as well. Pretty cool! Its hard to find quick and good low carb options. It would be nice if they had low carb side options or a salad..Dietary restrictions: The burgers are made to eat pretty easily lettuce wrapped and everything comes on it that you order.

If you aren't going to be open, you should state so online and at minimum, sign on the door. We traveled from Plant City and then needed to back track to other restaurant. With that being said, the breakfast was ok when we ate there a couple weeks ago.I updated the review when we went back for breakfast. The food was very good. Our waitress has always been friendly .We talked to the waitress about the issue on Friday. She said she would talk to someone in the afternoon to put a sign up and update the website.“
