50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Sand Lake

“Vegan Friendly 🌱! Had an amazing experience last night. Randomly found this wonderful restaurant. From the outside you would never know how beautiful it is inside. We were seated right away for 7 people. Half of our group are vegan and the menu had a huge selection for us. We mentioned we were celebrating a birthday and our waiter was very excited to bring a delicious dessert as well as play a happy birthday song over the sound system. We are already talking about going again for lunch this weekend because the food was just so good! We were amazed at how busy the place was on a Monday night and impressed with how well the staff handled it. Thank you to the wonderful staff especially our waiter Reagan. We look forward to our next visit!“

“We have eaten here twice now, the food is great, service is great, everyone is happy! We sit outside because we have a small dog, unfortunately today it was so hot and there are no umbrellas yet! So we left half way through because the sun was beating down on us 🥵“

“Delicious Asian food served in casual atmosphere. Service was friendly.“

“Husband and I were visiting Orlando for the first time and came across Maxine's on Shine. It is such an absolutely incredible charming restaurant! The food was outstanding, with generous and delicious portions, great prices, lots of options and vegan options and drinks but above all -- the hospitality was exceptional! From the greeting from the hostess, discussion with the bartender to the server, busser and owners, they all truly made us feel like a local to the city and appreciative of our business. You really can see the passion from Kirt and Maxine (owners) as it really shines through in every detail in their food, decor and ambiance of the restaurant and you can see that same passion in their staff! My husband and I went for dinner on a Saturday night and had such a wonderful experience that we simply had to go back on Sunday for the brunch before leaving town. Truly an AMAZING experience and such wonderful people! 100 STARS!!!“

“It’s a little food truck next to a convenience store. They had outdoor seating with cover, but it was raining really bad so we took it to go. We ordered Al pastor tacos and quesabirria tacos. The wait time was less than ten minutes and they made the tortillas fresh to order. They were really friendly, spoke English and Spanish. The food was really hot and was still plenty warm by the time we arrived back to our hotel. The green sauce had an amazing fresh flavor and the red sauces wasn’t too hot. The portions were perfect, filled us up but we aren’t stuffed. Overall, an amazing experience! Genuinely great food and worth the visit, even in the rain!“

“Customer service was great. Lynn was very attentive and nice plus my food was awesome. Definitely recommend“

“Tonight was our first time eating here. I love how close by it is to where we live. We split an "Antipasto" salad and ordered a 16" "Mediterranean Chicken" pizza. The place was not busy in-house, but they were dealing with a good number of takeout orders. The pizza and salad came out quickly. The pizza was "oven hot", but eating the salad first allowed it to cool a bit. Excellent pizza... thin crust that had a nice chewy texture without being tough. They told us that the crust is "aged" for 72 hours after being mixed to develop flavor. Toppings were freshly prepared and tasty. Our pizza had a pesto base... really good. Very happy with our meal here... we'll definitely be back!!“

“1st time here had to come here and I gotta admit .this place kicks @$$ and I plan on coming back soon awesome employees made my 1st visit special Happy Easter Mooyah employees thanks again Carl the employee“

“Our evening was wonderful, John our waiter took extra special care of us. We had reservations at Dr Phillips and he met our every need. The dinner was excellent and presentation of each plate divine. We never had a meal at Kres that didn't deserve 5 stars . Thank you“

“Lugar sensacional 🚀, recomendo !!“

“muy bueno y fresco. con muy buena atención.“

“Went for lunch with the family on a Saturday afternoon. The customer service was excellent! The food was tasty, we had a good time. The veggie burger and onion rings were delicious. The kids meal was properly portioned. If you’re a man that eats a lot my husband recommends 2 burgers. Other than that, great meal and service. Stephany the manager gave us free ice cream to top off our meal. Definitely recommend!

Vegetarian options: Veggie burgers, fries, onion rings“

“The Food is Amazing!! We sat at the bar inside and the bartender was very sweet and attentive. We don't drink so I don't know how the beer is but the food is freaking amazing! Highly recommend!“

“We’ve been here several times and will keep coming back. They have a great vegan selection and it’s clearly labeled in a separate section on the menu. Favorite items are the birria tacos and fajitas. Super tasty and food is always sizzling hot when it arrives. Portion sizes are large! We usually end up taking some food home. Staff is always friendly.“

“Best chicken sando you’ll ever eat“

“I went to The Glass Knife with my husband for the first time today. We had an amazing experience, the food was deliciosos, the coffee exquisite, I had the Costa Rican pour over, one of the best I have ever had. The service was absolutely perfect, Zay took care of us and she was very pleasant and welcoming.“

“Just the fries don’t recomendable too soggy 👎“

“We went to Burger Fi on the recommendation of a family member who has eaten there before. Ary took our order and noted all of our many food allergies and sensitivities quickly and efficiently. The order was ready in no time- and was perfect!
Thank you Ary for your great service! Also thank you Brandon for the recommendation!.“

“Cool venue in a neat part of town. These are some of the best meads I’ve ever had and I drink a lot of mead. Bold. Flavorful. Delicious. I wanted to try everything!!“

“So we are from Maine here in Orlando on vacation. My son found this place on the internet and we were a bit skeptical of it. On our last day in Orlando we decided to give it a try and I am SO GLAD we did. This place was awesome. The ice cream was VERY good. I got a small portion of the Cuban Coffee ice cream with almonds, heath and hot fudge and I regret getting a small. It was so good I ordered another small one. The staff was very friendly Avery and Mia were very helpful and were very knowledgeable when we had questions. They was such a good selection of flavors and toppings which would accommodate any one frok kids to adults. They even had vegan options for those who are into that. Overall great experience 10/10 recommend giving it a try as we do t have anything unique like this in Maine.

Vegetarian options: Vegan options

Parking: Parking next to building

Kid-friendliness: Plenty of options for kids with flavors and toppings“

“Great food and great service“

“Wonderful new addition to the hood. Love it!!“

“Today I stopped in for some wellness shots & left with much more. First time trying the Buffalo Chickpea Salad & I ate it on my way home it looked so good-it was amazing! Then I broke into the homemade Broccoli Potato soup-yummy! Washed it all down with the watermelon Good Vibrations juice! If only we had a location in Lake Mary/Sanford, (hint hint) I would eat there multiple times per week! I just can’t say enough about this place & the owners are absolute gems!“

“Lamb haneeth and lamb kabsa were amazing. The lamb soup, however, was out of this world. Add a squeeze of lime and a bit of that delicious salsa and you will ditch the spoon and have straight from the bowl. Two bowl later you will wish you had room for more ?.
The basboosah was perfectly sweetened and not overbearing like I’ve had in other places..

Service was also amazing, very inviting and generous! Keep up the good work.“

“Amazing food and atmosphere“

“I love to go to Infusion Tea with a friend for the atmosphere, tea, and food. Delicious! But I recently had Infusion Tea cater an event for 100 called High Tea Florida Style. Infusion Tea did itself proud. The delivery was on time and the gentleman that delivered was great. The food was a smash from the scones to the tea sandwiches, to the fruit, and those chocolate chip cookies! The teas were good too. Your team did a fabulous job. We had so much food, we had to take a lot to the homeless, not a bad thing. Women just don’t eat that much, I guess.“

“Had a late lunch here today. What’s great place, food was fresh and tasty, place is modern and clean. We got to chat with the owners, real nice guys. We will be back!!“

“Local Gem We live a 15 minute stroll from Mangoni's Italian Market, but at "feels like" temps hovering around 105°, strolling to lunch hasn't been as attractive ? Sunday, hubby wanted a relaxing lunch with sangria! So, we drove (& charged our EV in the parking garage). We had the entire patio to ourselves, as diners likely expected unbearable heat. Mangoni's pergola and great ceiling fans made patio dining the experience we wanted---even when the afternoon storm blew up from the west, we were protected from rain. We enjoyed our favorite, GF goat cheese pizza, with our sangria. Unlike most places, Mangoni's GF crust is an excellent, thin cauliflower crust. And, it’s not an upcharge. We also enjoyed meeting Georgia, the regional manager, who chatted with us about the social hour (11-6pm weekdays). She made a GF garlicky cheesy Flatbread for us to try--now we have more reason to stroll (or drive) over! Oh, and take away is a frequent option. Really, Mangoni's is a local gem.“

“Stopped in for donuts for my kids. They were delicious, crispy on the outside but moist on the inside. Thank you to the young man making them for giving me a maple bourbon for my husband to try. He destroyed it… the bbq smelled delicious we ll have to stop in for some soon.“

“Love the flavors especially the ash coconut which is a lovely licorice color and full of coconut goodness. The mint chocolate (their name is more creative) is really nice. Sit outside and enjoy creamy, delicious vegan ice cream. Updated from previous review on 2025-04-04“

“Ate lunch here today for the first time and loved it! I have to eat gluten free and they had a bunch of gluten free options. The food tasted great!“

“Chicken biscuits and kale side salad is the best I’d eat that kale side salad everyday if I lived there yummy“

“Just called Rivers Lakeland to place a pick up order. Man answered the phone. Stated they don't take orders by phone have to do online. Told him I tried that wouldn't work. Said that's how they do take out. I've been going to 4 Rivers for years. Was ordering for six people over $100. Told him I'll find some place else to order from. Won't be back.“

“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!“

“Came to visit while here from the UK. Wonderful experience. Will be back next time 😊“

“My favorite restaurant in Winter Garden. Decided to do Italian for Thanksgiving and it was outstanding. My favorite is their Pork Osso Bucco and they did not disappoint. Service and owners are always on point. Thank you for enjoying my first Thanksgiving being waited on. Always recommend this place, never a bad meal. Thank you Dorina“

“The best gluten free food we found in Orlando. They have so many options and everything is delicious. They have savory and sweet, and I honestly couldn’t pick a favorite. Cheesecakes, cupcakes, waffles, a heavenly dish with eggs, bacon, cheese, and a yummy sauce over amazing fries. We were too full to try the gf waffle cones and ice cream!“

“This is my go to coffee location. The midnight oil dark roast is so tasty AND everyone working at this location is so friendly and nice.“

“The atmosphere is laid back but the service makes you feel like royalty. This establishment has exquisitely captured the artsy brew house down the road feel that some cannot. I applaud them on their knowledge of beers, selection, service to customers, and mostly their appreciation of the craft. This is truly a hidden gem in the heart of Orlando and I implore you to make it a regular stop when in the area. The Coin Laundry Lager is by far my favorite but you can find just about any European beer you want here as well as locally crafted European beers. 10 out of 10!“
