Restaurants near Zolfo Springs

“Awesome food and service!”

“I've been coming here for about 6 years and can say that I always have a great experience with yummy food. It's the cleanest restaurant in Hardee County and that is a plus! I enjoy all their Mexican and American dishes. Their hamburger and onion rings are delicious! And their quesadillas are the best I've had. It's a small town laid back family restaurant that you will get good food at and can bring friends sit and have a nice conversation. Bring cash, they don't take credit cards, but they keep their prices reasonable so I'm happy to remember my cash when I go.”

“They have the best by far chicken gizzards, and the biscuits are great just good tasting food period..”

“Absolutely delicious. This is our favorite place to stop at when we drive up to Disney from Southwest FL. We almost always stop here every trip! They’re very nice inside, the bbq is next level good and the portions are great! The pulled pork sandwich is enough to feed my husband and I for lunch, it’s giant and so delicious! We also love their ribs and brisket as well. Overall, couldn’t recommend them anymore. I’m so glad we stopped one random day to try them, it’s my favorite thing to look forward too on a drive through Bowling Green 😍”

“Cleanest bathroom I’ve ever been to for a road side eatery!!! Superb”

“Love stopping here for lunch when I am in town”

“A little bit of everything, live music, karaoke, pool, drink specials..... people from all walks of life, and of course the regulars. ❤️”

“Absolutely lovely tea room with an amazing story to share.”

“I love the food it is good”

“We were looking for a place to eat at after going around and doing work for our community as a church group over the summer. Food tasted amazing, rice cooked to perfection. They were so nice that they gave us some free tacos and drinks for the kids who forgot their wallets. I sadly didn’t get to take a picture of my steak quesadilla but it looked delicious.”

“Takeout chimichanga. Taste is great. Service nice. Portions to price ratio are okay to ehh (my picture makes it look bigger don’t come at me lmao). No chips or salsa with takeout. Given wrong salsa. Not a local but restaurant kinda smelled like well water (if you’re dining in). It’s a nice “every other month” craving food. I’m sure you could get a better portion further out of town though.”

“We've eaten at Giovannis in Wauchula many times coming from Avon Park and have Always loved the service and their food. Delicious Italian dishes and the salad bar is good 👍 😋 also. Highly recommended restaurant. A+++++⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Worth the drive everytime.”

“We decided to stop by this restaurant while out running errands. We were so impressed by the service and food. The food was very fresh, you could tell it was made there and not frozen. My very picky 11 year old even loved the food. The waitress recommended something for me to eat and was so kind. We can’t wait to come back and visit.”

“Delicioso!!! I turned around to stop here and I'm glad that I did. it looks like exactly what I was looking for and it absolutely was!! I had tacos on soft corn tortillas, one tripe, one lingua and one barbacoa al cabeza... WOW! The people were very sweet, awesome homemade salsa and great prices! Should have gotten a tamale for later.”

“Good food, affordable price. The server was terrific! Unfortunately, I didn't get her name. Monday, September 14, 2026. My wife didn't like the dish she ordered. It had cilantro and the server offered to get her something else. The second dish was great. Her attitude was great. We will definitely be back.”

“Don Tolin is a great combination of a Mexican market and restaurant. The place is spacious, clean, and has plenty of seating.

I ordered the menudo and asked them to add hominy—it was delicious, flavorful, and served in a beautiful traditional clay bowl. The service was impeccable! They were very accommodating with our requests, bringing us an extra plate and extra lime with a great attitude.

Kim was especially friendly and made us feel very welcome. You can enjoy an authentic Mexican meal and shop for groceries, snacks, drinks, and other products all in one place. We’ll definitely be back!”

“We have been there twice to lunch with group of motorcyclists - very friendly staff - quick service - and very good at handling individual payments. Thanks! Good parking.”

“First time there. Had the chicken tacos and my wife had the steak tacos. Both were very good and Fabi, our server, did an excellent job of explaining everything and answering our many questions. Definitely recommend and we’ll make a return trip for sure!”

“The service here was outstanding! Our waitress was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. She gave great recommendations and checked in just the right amount. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. The whole atmosphere was warm and welcoming, making it a great dining experience. Highly recommend both the restaurant and the staff—will definitely be coming back!””

“I visited recently and my experience was amazing. The staff was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and business. The Tropical Mix refresher was delicious 😋 and the cinnamon roll was amazing 10 out of 10!!!! I will be back soon.”

“We love Woodys! Not only is the food good, the owners and workers are all amazing! We always enjoy when we go for lunch/dinner and never leave unhappy. ☺️♥️”

“Great little road side restaurant. Very close to our campground. Bring your appetite. I would recommend adding the sopes. They are only open for lunch hours (11-2) though.”

“Stopped for some ice cream with the family while visiting the area. Delicious and lots of flavors and options!
We grabbed a mint chocolate chip, a fruity pebbles and a Cookie Monster milkshake.
Definitely worth a stop!
Super friendly folks!
Cash and card both accepted.”

“Service for me has not been the best.... The one waitress, Kaitlyn/Kayla?, I think is her name, gave the best service she could give! I haven't seen her there, that's why I'm giving a 3 for service. Recently atmosphere different, rushed and inattentive service.”

“The manager, Chris, is awesome. I thought they made an error on my order, went inside and talked with him. I had asked if there was anything on the mini taco salad was spicy, as I'm a spice wimp. They worker told me no. Then I took a big bite, with a lot of spicy Chipotle cream. Chris, replaced my own with something that was more expensive and didn't want the difference. Good management and customer service!!!”

“Being a pizza snob I generally prefer small mom and pop type pizza joints but I was proven wrong. My first time to Howie’s and I get the Detroit cup and char, great dough, crisp but light. The cheese wasn’t my fav but still good. Glad I’m in town for a few months”

“lacy and sherry are my favorite workers always so kind and get things done fast .”

“Chicken bacons croissant is amazing 🤩 🤤”

“This is a very clean Burger King and I have always been met by a professional employee to take my order. I have never felt like an Inconvenience when I have stopped to grab a burger.”
