New American Restaurants in Live Oak, FL

“Moved from South Florida, missed fine dining, good food, atmosphere places and casual dining. This place has it all. Staff 💯 accommodating, friendly welcoming. So thankful they are here!“

“Kelsie is a FANTASTIC server. She can remember all her orders without writing them down. She is very personable and friendly. She treats her customers the way she would treat her mom and dad, with the utmost care and respect. I have been here three times now and she has been just as fantastic every single time. I will be asking for her every time.“

“my husband and I are amazed and shocked to say the least. We are so use to our very own local waffle House we have to wait 30 to 45 minutes to get our food, the staff are always grumpy and complaining about something. The Live Oak waffle House is AMAZING. The staff is on point and super friendly, food is cooked right to perfection, and the store is spotless. They were busy as all get out, fully staffed, and we got our food less than 10 minutes and we were out within 35 minutes. Why in the world is our local Waffle Houses so slow??“

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
The Brown Lantern is a must-stop spot!
Whether you're passing through on I-10 or spending the day cave diving at one of the nearby springs, this is the perfect place to unwind and enjoy a great, slow-cooked meal.

My go-to is the Grilled Chicken Sandwich with dill chips—seriously the best in the county! Friendly service, cozy atmosphere, and real comfort food.

Recommended by Heritage Notary & Signing Service as a great local spot for casual meetings or a relaxing meal after appointments. Don’t miss it if you’re in the area!“
