“Out-of-towner happy to have landed at Zest for a late, Sunday afternoon lunch on a day trip to tour Bartow's interesting Wonder House, with quick, unplanned visits to the L.B. Brown House Museum and the Bartow History Center. Located on a side street a couple of blocks from the old town square Zest has a quiet, unassuming appearance with off-street parking and an outside, covered dining patio. Inside seating includes booths, tables and the bar in a large, high-ceilinged, sort of dimly lit dining area with a relaxing and comfortable atmosphere. Our server Regan, (I think was her name) was efficient, and attentive and just right friendly. Our food - we both had fish and chips with cole slaw - was excellent - the slaw was good - chunky cut with vinegar-based dressing rather than mayo-based, medium cut fries and the fish were very good - tender and crisp (the fish lightly battered). Definitely would be a repeat customer if I was a local. Planning to return to Bartow for a scheduled tour of the L.B. Brown House and to explore more of the History Center and it will be hard to decide whether to try a different restaurant or to return here where we really enjoyed the service, the meal and the space.“

“Tasty food and friendly environment“

“To good to be true! Love i only live 5 mins from here“

“I just wanted something quick and yummy that wasn’t a ton of unhealthy calories. I ordered their supergreen wrap with the fire braised chicken thigh 👌🏻. First of all. The thing was massive. I opened it and was like my goodness. 😋. It was so delicious. I about downed the whole thing. 😅 Also, when I went to pick it up, they were super friendly. My food was ready to go and neatly package. I’ll definitely be back again for lunch soon.“

“9/23/23 Was the first time I had gotten their pizza. Got a cauliflower pizza ( supreme) for myself and a regular supreme pizza for my birthday boy, husband. The BEST pizza I have had since moving to Florida 4.5 years ago! What a gem!! Thank you!!“

“Having eaten in this restaurant multiple times over the years I quite honestly can say that Eric has done an amazing job with the restaurant, food, and waitresses. They are pleasant and professional with one waitress truly making people smile. She is a consummate mom to her little man Xander and one of the main reasons why I eat there.“

“Service was great. The food was decent. I didn't pay for the party I was part of, but the prices seemed a bit high especially for a childs menu option, however the portion sizes for the child's option we got was rather large. The AC seemed to have been broken or malfunctioning or something, because fans were in use for cooling, but it was cooler than the Florida heat outside that we all know and love.“

“Was in town watching dogs for someone, and saw that this place A) exists and B) has cheesesteaks. I will try a cheesesteak anywhere, even if gunfire is happening around me. Thankfully, this restaurant is in a no fire zone. But for this sandwich, it would be worth the risk and the added expense of kevlar. I kid you not, their “Awesome Philly Sub” is that and more. I can’t remember eating a better cheesesteak in 2 decades, and I’ve most certainly tried. Two thumbs up isn’t quite enough… I’ll have to borrow some extra thumbs from my enemies to add to the score. Highly recommended! And I’m a cheesesteak snob… they conquered my appetite and I’ll most definitely be back when I’m out this way again. If you live in Lakeland and love sandwiches and HAVEN’T TRIED THIS PLACE, you are missing out and are making a bald eagle cry. I can’t prove that second one, but it sounds legit.“

“Me and my boyfriend came here to eat and spent less than $35, which honestly in this economy you can’t beat for delicious food for 2. It was our first time coming and it was raining so it definitely helped that they had a drive through! Anyways I got the fried catfish & shrimp combo with broccoli and fries. Everything was so amazing even the broccoli and I do plan on coming back! My boyfriend got wings & shrimp with fries and he said his food was very good as well. We both got sweet tea and it was very good southern iced tea for sure! All in all customer service was amazing and the cashier was very sweet and the wait was less than 10 minutes. Can’t wait to come back and can’t recommend enough!!!“

“They have some of the best staff. Shannon is the best“

“We had a wonderful experience at Fish City Grill in Lakeland! The food was absolutely delicious, and our server was polite, professional, attentive, and responsive to all our needs. The excellent food and outstanding service made our visit truly enjoyable! We look forward to returning!“

“First timer, only went there because the wife wanted to stop there (she's been there before). I VERY much enjoyed it. Got the Cheese ButterBurger w/fries. The burger was a little thin but the flaver made up for it. AND, much to my surprise, they have Custard Ice Cream! Something I haven't had in years. And, they make it fresh there. Overall, it was a good experience and yes, I will definetly go back!“

“Beautiful driving range very big, nice grass and super friendly and helpful service. So this was my first time going here since I’ve just been getting back into golf and I’ve been having trouble making good contact with the ball and a man that works there named GOAT came up and helped me with my stance and wow what an improvement! I’ve been to a few other places and you never get any help like that from the staff I will definitely be going back here ASAP and often! Can’t wait to play the course here! Thanks again to Goat for the amazing advice!“

“I have been to several locations, all have there own cool vibe to them! Food is excellent! Drinks well balanced! Sunday Brunch is a must!“

“The buffet style restaurant was nice. It was very busy. The selection of food was good I loved the dessert bar the most. Haha.... there was 1 rude worker that ran my foot over with the dish cart but I was hungry and didnt speak up so my fault for not but they should habe noticed the big lump in the floor and apologized. I would still go back.“

“The avocado toast and grits were perfectly cooked. The chicken and waffles were amazing!! Amanda is the very best waitress EVER!! I love the way she decorated the restaurant patriotically!!! I love her appreciation of her country!!! My favorite restaurant!“

“Awesome food!!! So tired of spending $$ on crapy food ..glad to find a good place with goodfood!!“

“Our waitress Destiny was AMAZING! Best service I have had anywhere in a LONG time. We had a large party. She was quick, kind and all our items were exactly as ordered. Thank you Destiny, for making our "mini family reunion" that much better.“

“Emma was wonderful, I ran out of eggs for my breakfast, so I stopped to get some at Perkins, and let them take care of me. I never have a bad time here, everyone is always happy to see me, and my food always tastes great. Thanks! Emma was very attentive and fast! Great job!“

“Culver’s does everything a fast food restaurant should do! They give you quick service and deliver your food to your table and they are so friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The smash burgers paired with a chocolate Custard is a dream mouth watering treat 😁 the food here knocks my socks off!

…cant forget about those curds.“

Good food and great service! Emily S. And her team did a super job taking care of our party of 11. Thank you!

Gabriella at the bar hooked us up and made sure we didn't dehydrate while we waited. Double Crn with sprite 2 🍒 and a lime. :) 😀

“Went here for lunch and the Beef Brisket Nachos is the best in Central Florida hands down. The people who work there are so cool i just met the one Bartender and you'd think we knew each other for years great place. If you've never had these Nachos you gonna slap yourself for waiting“

“Shout out to Texas Roadhouse for delivering warm bread and butter to our office today. It’s nice to see businesses being so neighborly! Happy Holidays from Spangler Cremation Services ❤️“

“We had an absolutely amazing experience at Glory Days, all thanks to our waitress Jess M! Her service was fantastic, and she was so incredibly nice and attentive. She truly went above and beyond for us. If you’re coming here, do yourself a favor and ask for Jess M!“

“We love our Waffle House.“

“The food was okay at this Waffle House, but the overall experience was pretty disappointing. I found a hair in my waffle, which is already bad enough—but what made it worse was that the hair didn’t even look like it belonged to anyone working there. That raises serious concerns that it may have been in the batter itself, meaning it could’ve contaminated more than just my meal.

They did replace the food, but by that point, my appetite was completely gone. On top of that, we were still charged, and paying $70 for four people for an experience like that is just ridiculous.

Definitely not a place I’d be eager to return to after this.“

“After having a terrible experience at Gators Dockside my wife and I decided to go to beefs. We were greeted by the manager Jason and another employee named Casey. They opened the door for us and welcomed us in. Our waitress came right over and took our drink order and our dinner order. She was very efficient and friendly. Her name was Jenna. After dinner as we were leaving the manager opened the door for us and told us to have a good night. This is what I call excellent customer service. Most places are lacking in this area nowadays. Would recommend for sure“

“We've rediscovered IHOP this year. The food is great, clean restaurant, and the staff is super! Krista was our server this morning and she rocked it. We invited some friends to join us when they came in after us and Krista never missed a beat! We'll definitely be back!“
