Fast Food Restaurants near University Park

“OUTSTANDING CATERING SERVICE!!!!!!!! I needed to have 30 meals delivered to a lacrosse team at Lakewood Ranch High School. This was the second Chick-Fil-A I called because I thought another was closer to the school. ( We were a visiting school from Tampa.) That other location was HORRIBLE - I can't believe I had such a drastically different experience and that was just in the ordering stage. I worked with JENNIFER at this restaurant and she was WONDERFUL to deal with. What I ordered is not a typical boxed meal but she was able to think outside the box (unlike the other store!) and made the ordering process seamless. MOLLY was right on time with the delivery and the boxed meals were hot and well-received by the boys after a hard-fought game. Not only was it an easy process, on-time and correct, but they even included a thank you note and 2 gift-cards for a free sandwich. Best Chick-Fil-A experience ever. This restaurant's operator should be so proud of Jennifer to think outside the box and make this volunteer mom and hungry boys happy. Jennifer is an asset to your team and Molly was helpful with the delivery and her willingness to help us should we have any additional needs. THANK YOU> I HOPE THIS WILL MAKE PEOPLE COME TO YOUR RESTAURANT INSTEAD OF 5206 73rd Ln E, Bradenton, FL 34203“

“Everything was delicious! The salsa and guacamole were very fresh and the tacos were perfect. The food came very fast and the service was excellent.“

“The drive through guy super funny though as most fast food places don't exspect to get the same guy or girl always. During the visit super cool person, it's nice Wendy's at least try to listen to there employees and don't work then into the ground.“

“Place is fast and sufficient always takes care of everyone. I always have my break here and so do all my other coworkers. Love the food it’s always good and everyone is so nice to offer their help. Highly recommend if you want a good place to stop and eat.“

“El mejor pepito de Miami. Su pan es completamente artesanal con orégano y queso parmesano, proteínas frescas y zasonadas por sus dueños, vegetales frescos y opcionales como maíz y mushrooms totalmente gratis.“

“Came for the 5-star reviews, stayed for the yum. This food truck punches above its weight — more like a neighborhood restaurant on wheels with plenty of charm.
For the uninitiated, this is Venezuelan comfort food done right. The sancocho is slow-simmered, deeply comforting, the kind of stew you don’t rush. The cachapas, sweet ground-corn pancakes folded over warm, melty cheese, finished with crème fraîche, rich, and memorable. My wife went with BBQ steak — tender, well-seasoned, and exactly what you want from a team that knows its grill. And yes, the arepas are non-negotiable. It’s hard not to root for Christian, the owner. You feel his enterprising spirit in the food, the hospitality. How soon until he takes on an inside restaurant?“

“Alejandra was my server , and she was GREAT. Quick lunches are the best . Great service“

“Absolutely love the burger never tasted anything like this i really enjoyed this burger had the perfect amount of flavors and the meat must be lamb meat because it was tender and juicy with fresh veggies on top i most definitely will be back to try more food. Best burger i have ever had in my life.“

“Buen sabor en la costilla y la carne.“

“Great burgers! Me and my wife were craving a good burger in our area. We came across Charles & Larry’s and with a 4.6 rating, we said, let’s give it a shot!

The place is small and has capacity for about 30 -40 people. We were immediately greeted by a very friendly server, who was very helpful with the menu.

I ordered the Charles burger and, as you see in the picture, it did not disappoint!!! My wife ordered a single burger, but it was as good.

The Charles came with two patties, American cheese, Venezuelan soft - hand made cheese, coleslaw, lettuce, bacon and julienne potato sticks. I opted out of the tomatoes.

Burgers were cooked to perfection and the flavors were harmonious!!! Drizzle them up with some “house sauce” and it’s as perfect as a Venezuelan burger could be. I guess the only thing missing was a fried egg on top!!

Needless to say, I could not finish my burger as it was waaaayyy too big for me to finish it (and I can eat!!)

Five stars to the Maracuchos (Venezuelans from Maracaibo). I will definitely go back!“

“The best food truck in Miami. Excellent staff and customer service. All are very friendly and can customize your order upon request. Cant miss a week without having a hamburger de pollo crispy. Highly recommend!

Parking: Kendall Miami“

“BEST BURGER, CACHAPA AND PATACON IN ALL MIAMI. TOTALLY OBSESSED! HANDS DOWN TO THE BEST OF THE BEST AND WHAT AN EXCELLENT SERVICE SUPER SWEET AND SHE EXPLAINED AND UNDERSTOOD EXACTLY WHAT WE WANTED.

Parking: We found parking right away

Kid-friendliness: They can make the same delicious burger for your picky little one, so don’t worry they will love it.“

“Naguara I'm not one to leave reviews but this place doesn't deserve 5 but 1000 Stars!!! it's hyper Well, a little piece of Venezuela in its authentic Venezuelan street food, we came from Alabama to eat here, Mili super attentive thanks guys!!! !“

“�% recommended“

“Excelente servicio y el pepito gratinado de champiñones está a muy bueno...“

“I live in Boca Rato and a friend recommended that I visit El Doral to eat some incredible shawarma, in fact I went with my family yesterday and I wanted to recommend this food truck TO RUBEN, it is the best shawarma I have ever eaten in my life... like this Visit them, you won't regret giving pleasure to your palate.“

“A mi me gusta mucho Chick-Fil -A gracias para los que comen ahí muy Agradecida“

“I'll start by saying that the girl who served me was very kind and helpful at all times, as I had never tried churros from this franchise. I grew up in Spain and was used to the churros and porras there. I'll rate and be honest with my experience.

Pro’s:
The churros were made and served right away. I ordered a Nutella and dulce de leche churroa cup. I must say it was a feast of flavors with the dulce de leche. I loved it, but the Nutella was neither here nor there (ni fu ni fa).

Con’s: I thought the price was super overpriced. I was never offered a 10% discount, but they also didn't remind me of the 20% discount on the mall coupon, which I had. And I could have enjoyed more products at a nice discount.

So, that's why I'm giving it 4 stars!⭐️“

“💯 😌 👍🏻 good , 🍟🍔🍔🍟🧆🍔🍔🧆🧆🍔🍔🧆“

“Very good service in this place, my first time I had a good impression because of the flavors in their products that are remarkably good quality, and something very important as every business should have is good service 100 points, 100% recommended, the hat is spectacular, I really liked it. 🫶🏼“

“I always drive past this restaurant and finally stopped by to try it and I regret not coming in sooner. The Churrasco is amazing and I get one every week. Huge portion compared to other places in the area. Lots of flavor, always hot and fresh, and the team there is friendly.“

“Great service, astonishing churros. Order was ready in no time. Customer care was amazing, especially from Rachel who treated us so well and recommended the best they had. I highly recommend this place to everyone who wants to eat delicious churros and be treated as a VIP“

“bueno!

De verdad una excelente atención 👏“

“We came to eat after heartbreaking news in our family. Jayden at the register had no idea what was going on and was so kind to us. He had patience with us. His kindness truly helped. Something simple but very meaningful. The experience was beyond the food. He reminded us that there are still kind people in the world.

Thanks Jayden! Hope you never change.“

“Amazing, everything I have tried is 👍👍 My favorite is the Tumbarrancho with lomo negro!!!!“

“Since living in Florida I have been so disappointed in Burgers, overpriced and tasteless. This place right here put the biggest smile on my face. I spent 7.99 on the best beef burger and it came with fries and drink. Burger was huge and the taste was seasoned and cooked perfect. I will be coming back here and I highly recommended.“

“By far the best Philly Steak I’ve ever had in Miami…..dinewithme305“

“Conveniently located, great hamburgers, fries and shakes and the staff is great. Oh and must important, my granddaughter loves the place !“

“Churromania a special place for the family, good service and good quality of products. Today I tried a new drink that they released and it was delicious, I recommend the milkshake to everyone. It is undoubtedly the family's favorite place in The Fall mall.“

“If you’re a true French fries lover, this place is an absolute must-visit. From the moment you walk in, it’s clear that fries are not just a side dish here — they’re the star of the show.
The fries are perfectly crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and cooked to golden perfection. You can really taste the quality of the ingredients and the care that goes into every batch. The variety of toppings and sauces takes the experience to another level, offering both classic flavors and creative combinations that keep you coming back for more.
Highly recommended — easily one of the best places to enjoy French fries done right!“

“Never had crepes like these before! You start with a crispy cheesy crust that is just so genius and delicious. The crepes are completely stuffed. And lemme tell you, those last few bites... all the juices and sauces that slowly combine and gather at the bottom finish the experience with a total BOMB of flavors. So freaking gooooooooodddddd!!“

“Great Five Guys located in Doral Plaza just steps from Publix grocery. Enjoyed a grilled cheese, Bacon Cheeseburger, fries. At the last minute added a peanut butter/ salted caramel shake......yummylicious! Everything came out piping hot. Highly recommend the freshly prepared French fries. And peanuts in the shell for a press or post snack available- gratis! Thank you Daniel B and the kitchen team members for the great service.“

“Excelente y muy delicioso todo lo que venden, me encantan Las empanadas.“

“Really good burgers. I got the mushroom & Swiss , it was perfect. Caramelized onions and applewood bacon. My date got the Jala jack burger, it was spicy but hit the spot. Burgers average $15-18 & come with fries. Overall satisfying and delicious“

“The food was good but not as good as the locations I normally eat at. We ate here twice this week. The staff were friendly and helpful and did a good job keeping the dining room clean even during high traffic lunch times. I will eat here again when in the area.“

“Lots Of Great Shops In Westland Mall 👍“

“I'm at the one on 82 Ave and Flagler St. First time here. Great service and the Cuban Steak Sandwich special for $6 is amazing!“

“Very disappointed that they have not included one of the most popular sandwiches, chicken salad. It’s a customer favorite at other locations.“

“Just tried Churro World Co tonight @ the waterford lakes towne center. it was amazing! the portions are huge we got multiple orders for the ice cream and churro combo, and premium churros. they were warm and delicious 😋 we will definitely be back!!“

“This isn’t like your typical Chick-fil-A. This one is different, it’s cute, beautifully decorated, and well designed. But also, the chicken here is somehow way better… Simply phenomenal. The cashier who took my order this past Thursday (07/31/2025) around 9:20 PM was so sweet and had excellent customer service.“

“MUY BUENA 👌 ATENCIÓN RÁPIDO Y LIMPIO“
