“Great local spot perfect for starting your night out! They offer relatively affordable drinks, and the bartenders are pretty cool. There's a pool table that you don't have to pay for, darts, and lots of comfortable places to sit. Outside is a chill vibe as well, with several seats and tables out front - I've been there 3 times, and it's never been super crowded. Parking can be a challenge at times, but there are lots nearby to park at. I recommend starting out here if you're bar hopping and then walking to the mills (about a 5 minute walk, and you'll pass several bars along the way)“

“I stumbled across this place by chance this weekend and am glad I did. I was craving an Old Fashioned all week long. I tried the original and then the Southern style. Great staff, Bartenders were fantastic and also had brief conversations with the other guests. I highly recommend going. I will be back and next time I’ll hopefully have some friends with me.“

“We went for lunch for my besties birthday. Food and service were amazing. A bonus is this spot is the BEST food ever. I havent had authentic Mexican food in Orlando since I lived in Southern California 13 years ago. The only drawback was the lighting. It was way too bright. We almost wanted to put on our Sunglasses but didn't want to be rude to such kind staff members. Please consider dimming your lighting. It is a great place though, nicely remodeled and great accents and pretty dinnerware. We have ordered food over 25 times and it is always excellent!“

“So delicious! Excellent service from everyone, especially our server Shaun. He was so thorough and answered all our questions. The Cedar Key clams were to die for! I had the scallops and my husband had the burger for dinner- so freaking amazing ! I can’t say enough about this place! The owner was walking through the dining room checking on everyone, greeting everyone - thank you Carol for an exceptional experience!“

“The Vegan Green Lab Tacos are the best vegan/veggies tacos I've ever had!! This place is a true hidden gem in every sense of the term. They're always soo nice and helpful inside. Just a great place for tacos. I'm lucky to live pretty close but I would drive across town if I had to.“

“Excellent food, wait staff and over all service. Great experience every time I visit“

“Was incredible. The cheezus is a must. The spice from the bomb that was added into my Ramen made it just right for me(if you enjoy spicy) The shishito peppers accompanied the ramen perfectly. Our server Brandon was amazing and attentive, fun guy! All around, I highly recommend this place.“

“Been here twice now, ordered different items each time & they didn’t disappoint. It’s my “go to” place for Mexican food in the area. Service is always good & attentive (not sure why other reviews complain). If you’re in the area check it out. I’ll, definitely, be back.“

“Nico is truly exceptional, and Mosonori is incredibly lucky to have him. He always recognizes returning guests, greets them with genuine warmth, and takes the time to ask how they’ve been. His consistency, kindness, and attention to detail make every visit feel personal and memorable.

On top of that, the hand rolls here are some of my absolute favorites — each one presented individually, perfectly fresh, and at the ideal moment. That level of care, paired with Nico’s hospitality, is a huge part of why I continue to return.“

“Rum, Rum, and more Rum. Great selection!“

“Oh my. It’s Friday, so it’s time for fish and chips. I was surprised; the best fish and chips in Florida. I didn’t even have to ask for vinegar. Perfect. Great mushy peas and the chips were nice and crispy. The family loved the bee sting burger too. Great work team, it’s obvious you have spent a lot of effort making sure things are top quality.“

I ordered the chicken and steak fajitas and they were delicious, perfectly cooked, flavorful, and very filling. My friend had the chicken and pork belly fajitas and loved them as well. The food came out fast, hot, and fresh, which we really appreciated.

Overall, we had such a great experience and genuinely enjoyed everything. I will definitely be coming back!“

“Great venue for having a great time with your friends. Fresh food, friendly bar tenders. I went on karaoke night and had a blast. Will definitely be back soon“

“This is my absolute new favorite if you are anywhere near Lake Mary or the Orlando area. We ordered three appetizers. Had wine and cocktails and everything was delectable. The service was beyond amazing and the staff made us feel like family. I am usually extremely picky and always find at least one fault….i could not find one and this place. It makes me want to move to Florida. I can’t wait to go back!“

“Twas a dark and stormy night in the 8th layer of hell the lost souls of the East know as “Orlando”. As the clouds shrouded the sky, I stumbled into this saloon for shelter from the impending Burning Rain of Death. The rake behind the counter, Garret, kindly offered me a libation to which I vehemently obliged. Before the cold glass met my lips, I was frozen in my chair by the sight of a wicked woman with fiery hair the locals know to be Winnifred. We spoke wildly into the night of spooky dino chickie nuggies, Disney +, Malibu potions, and cauldron maintenance, of course. She lent me her boOooOooOok and I would love nothing more than to return it to her, as it won’t stop staring at me. If you see her, please do let her know I would love to reconnect, and would also take her up on Billy’s number if she’s indeed done with him.“

“My favorite restaurant in town! Excellent service and food.“

“Amazing experience...ask for Deric!! can not wait to return to this restaurant. It is so much more than a restaurant!“

“Wonderful as always!!! One of my favorite places ☺️“

“Great bar! Especially with so many options within a 20-30 minutes drive, I really enjoy coming here because of the amazing service I receive from incredible people like Frank. He’s recommended so many different cocktails that I wouldn’t usually order. I appreciate that.
Also,
the food is great. I love Tacos my guey.“

“We headed ourselves to Black Coffee Sunday morning to try out the new place in town. We’re brunch lovers so the bar is settled very high, let me tell you this place did not disappoint at all when all I can think of is “how to rate this place just 10/10” Starting off with the amazing service everyone there is willing to give, the owner he’s one of a kind and the fact that he was assisting the tables it is top notch! We had to order a few things from the menu since everything was so appealing. We did fresh juices (I do recommend the carrot orange 10/10) We did non-alcoholic lavander mimosas 100/10 For brunch we did Madame Croque Sandwich, Steak Omelette and Salmon Benedicts. Everything was mouthwatering, however the real showstopper was the grilled lettuce caesar salad. As a chef i’ve never tasted a salad so rare yet so flavorful before, so if you’re a salad person this is a MUST for you to try. 1000/10 wanted to take some home but that’s one of those plates to eat at the moment. Will definitely be repeating this place soon!!“

“My daughter and I had an absolutely amazing time at this restaurant. The food is great,the ambiance is amazing and the service is everything you would want it to be. Cheyenne, our server met all of our needs and more, super personable and attentive.“

“Great music, good food and the chocolate desser was amazing. Staff is very friendly. It was a very nice relaxing evening!“

“I don’t know why I waited so long to write a review maybe because I know that Christners Steak House speaks for itself. My husband and I have been coming to Christners for 12 years now and it never disappoints! The food is always amazing. The filet mignon is perfectly cooked with amazing flavor every time. I recommend the crab cake and the lobster bisque to start. The service is consistently friendly, attentive, and makes you feel right at home. A very special thank you to Seth and Jordan for their great service. They truly made the experience even better.

Dessert!!!! The orange cake… absolutely amazing and the perfect way to finish the meal!!! I highly recommend Christners Steal House to anyone who loves great food and great hospitality.

“I just want to say what an amazing place this is. We have been here many times and every time service is on point and food is amazing! We’ve had Taylor and Yez as our servers and they are both AMAZING! Tyra is so wonderful and remembers us every time and makes sure to take very good care of us! Jenna the bartender makes the perfect drinks! This place is where we should all be spending our money at. Not corporate places. They truly care about our experience! We will definitely be back!!“

“1/3/25…in town for one night, never been here, never heard of this place, just decided to try it. Stopped in around 5:00. The host asked if we had a reservation, we did not. She said “I’ll work you in” and seated us immediately at the bar. The bruschetta was the bomb! The fried chicken was totally out of this world! The service was outstanding! A must go to place!“
