New American Restaurants near Orange City, FL

“I found out that the Orange Social Club restaurant was moving in when I visited the old Woody's that previously occupied the space in the strip mall directly behind Applebee's off Enterprise Blvd in Orange City, Florida. It is a scratch kitchen, which means they prepare each dish once it is ordered and don't mass produce and store meals. This effort takes a bit longer than some other restaurants that have precooked portions and rush it out. The short delays are worth the wait in my opinion. They offer breakfast, lunch, dinner and a Sunday brunch. The owners (Natish and Jay) both have previous restaurant/bar experience with high-end establishments and their knowledge and skills are evident in the menu selections and preparation. Both gentlemen are from India and have added a couple Indian dishes to the menu. Having been to that country twice, I am a huge fan of the cuisine. Luckily, they offer one of my favorites ...an excellently prepared butter chicken. Other than that, their burgers are one of the best that I have found in the Deland vicinity. I love this place and the service I receive. I typically eat there at least once or twice a week. Unfortunately, they have experienced a few hiccups since opening because of problems getting city approval of their signage. I heard this week that they have finally gotten that so signage will be up soon. I highly recommend a visit to experience the menu and service yourself.“

“When you can test the love and effort they put in every meal that they make, I can say without any doubt, that is the place to be. The beef,the sauce, I can't get enough . Love it. Service is always excellent. The atmosphere makes you feel at home .“

“What a gem of a place to have in our town of Deland! The garlic escargot is the best we've ever had. The garlic sauce is over the top, want to lick the plate clean amazing. Leg of Lamb is my favorite, tender, seasoned to perfection, and just melts in your mouth. My husband's favorite is the prime ribeye. Just sheer perfection. Have never had anything on the menu that wasn't tasty. Get the wine, eat the dessert, enjoy. You won't regret stopping here.“

“Had been a while, maybe a couple of years, since I'd been, but I definitely won't make that mistake again. Every single thing ordered was on point. Sleepy little gem in Sanford serving elevated takes on Southern favorites. Came for a late dinner (9 p.m.) and ordered our way through small plates tapas style. Every single thing was lovingly and expertly prepared. One incredible standout was the Tomato Mac. When it was brought to the table, I thought it looked like it would be a little bland and watery, but OMG, the flavors and texture in this dish were incredible - a sweet and savory delight. Another standout was the chicken liver mousse. Chef's kiss! Also worked our way through hoecakes and the sticky ribs - the meat of which just fell off the bone. They were expertly trimmed and the Asian inspired glaze was to die for. Also sampled the cheddar jalapeno biscuits and the mushroom angolotti - all delicious. For dessert (all made in house), the cornmeal pie was to die for. Also had the smoked salted caramel ice cream, which was quite unique and inventive, as were the biscuits and chocolate "gravy."Even though the staff and kitchen were surely ready to wind down close to closing, we received excellent and gracious service and everything continued to be executed with great care and skill.I will definitely be sure to visit much more often! Compliments to the owners and staff!“

“We enjoyed our diner experience. Good homestyle breakfast and pretty coffee cups with great tasting brew. Rule of thumb, Don't ask for extra crispy hash browns until you've tried their original. They were GREAT overly crispy goodness.“

“What a pleasurable experience! First as smoker I appreciate the fact that you are allowed to smoke on the outside. I had the shrimp and grits it was AMAZING. You had choice of sides but very limited and nothing that really went with the shrimp and grits so I got fries. The wait staff was really nice. I would totally return again. Oh and they have proper pint size glasses unlike “The Station”Kid-friendliness: I see kids here but no kid menu that I could tellWheelchair accessibility: Level with sidewalk“

“SBC is our go-to stop for lunch and a growler refill when we fly into Sanford; we've come to expect really good food and service which is what keeps us coming back. Our most recent stop was on Thursday and our server was Chris. The bar has been set high in the past, but Chris was exceptional. He chatted a little, checked in with us regularly, and was always working. Without exception, just when we would think we were ready for something, he was magically right there on the spot. Very impressive and worth noting. We had the pretzel bites and grilled mahi sandwich. Food was really good as usual, but the service was especially worthy of a shoutout.“
