37 Best American Restaurants near Minneola

“I reached out to the folks at Minneola Inn to ask about their boat rentals. They had us out on the boat next day for an amazing day on the water! The boat had everything we needed and Todd gave us amazing directions to navigate the lakes and also some good fishing and swimming! We went out for the morning, came back for some amazing lunch and yummy drinks, and then went out for the rest of the day before returning around 5! We can’t wait to come back next year! Thank you all!!!“

“The Hamlin location took amazing care of us today. We had to request a change of seating as we had some mobility issues within our party and they did it without any issue. I managed to spill my drink and the waitress was super relaxed with getting me a damp rag to clean it up. We ordered a drink not realizing it was smoked and they swapped it for us as we had a massive allergy issue in our party. I promise we aren’t usually so high maintenance but when I say they rolled with our oddly chaotic punches I deeply appreciated it. It’s the end of 2024 and I’m so proud of these folks for being on their ‘A’ game and accommodating us. Good food. Good service. Good time all around. I hope these rockstar servers hand an absolutely amazing 2025.“

“We stopped by for lunch today for the first time. We had 5 people in our party and we were all very pleased with our meals and the staff.

Both were a absolutely GD amazing, the Mac and cheese was PERFECT. Absolutely stellar, customer service was friendly, and I'll definitely be coming back when I'm on this side of town.

“Visited this Ruby Tuesday’s location, & the food & service was outstanding. Excellent service by Deondre & Deondra. I appreciate their service.“

“Service is absolutely incredible. To be specific, a server named Elle has been the most genuine helpful person you have working there. She definitely deserves a raise or at least some stake in the company! Keep being you Elle, and thank you Clermont National!“

“Oakwood in Clermont is our go-to place for great BBQ and great service. The ribs are my favorite! I've had most of the dinners and all of them were very good. There's a good selection of entrées and sides...salads are big and flavorful. All dinners are portioned well and we never leave still hungry. The entire staff is awesome! We've never had a bad experience ever...we've been coming here for years! Our favorite waitress is Nichole...she is super friendly and has a fun-loving, bubbly personality while maintaining a polite and professional demeanor! I highly recommend this restaurant for a fun, relaxing yet classy dining experience for the entire family!“

“We just had Thanksgiving dinner there. Our first time there. Roadhouse decor via 1948. The wait staff is personable , unpretentious. The menu is limited to turkey, salmon, steak with blue cheese and elk chops. We had the steak and elk chops. Excellent. Cooked to perfection. Great experience ; we will return.“

“Tried Black Bear today for the first time. Simply amazing food. But the staff, seriously the best, most pleasant service we have had in a very long time. Highly recommend!“

“This is the best breakfast place in town, hands down! There’s no place like First Watch. They have excellent service, amazing people, and delicious food! I highly recommend coming from breakfast or lunch!“

“Recently started going to this locale because my regular Beef's sadly closed down. This is our one night out a week for trivia on Mondays. Food is good, service is very good. Patty is phenomenal! My only complaint is about the trivia gift certificates. I was surprised that they can't be used on Mondays. So if you win, you can't use your winnings the next week. As most people don't eat out more than once a week, where is the incentive to come back to trivia? Plus it's a 15 mile drive to get there. Please reconsider to make them good for any day other than the day you win.“

“Since the Avalon Diner has opened each time we visit we are never disappointed.“

“Best BBQ Ribs I’ve ever had!!! So happy they are back open!!“

“Walked in ams seated right away, server came by promptly and took our drink order, we asked to place our meal order as we knew what we wanted. She came back with our tea quickly, not sure if she turned the order in at same time...too long of wait time to get our order. Others came in after us with larger groups and they were receiving their orders quicker than ours for only 2 people. Our server disappeared...had to ask another server to help us out. She was glad to help and found our server for us. Shouldn't have long wait time for 1 chicken and 1 rib dinner with beans and fries. The only part actually cooked to order is the fries. Convinced server was the issue based in what we experienced and saw around us. Sonny's needs to step it up a little.“

“I haven't been to a Steak 'n Shake in years -- I had the PLEASURE of eating at the Clermont location and all I can say is WOW -- Excellent service and delicious and HOT burger and HOT fries!!! I had Ron help me on my first visit and the gentleman in the evening was just as helpful -- Way to run a business!!!“

“Awesome comfort food, great coffee, was surprised they weren't staffed enough. There were 33 patrons inside the night we went and only two waitresses and one cook. Took longer than average to get our food. Michelle was an all star! As was the other server. Better staffing instead of threats on buliten boards about not getting trained on certain IHOP acamedy lessons would drive business.

Kid-friendliness: Good for a large group of kids.

Wheelchair accessibility: Ample accessible parking when we went around 6:30pm on a Wednesday.“

“It has good food and good drinks“

“The Hot BBQ sauce is the best“
