“I'm a regular hereThe food is absolutely delicious, and dont even get me started on the fantastic service.but they they're sweating SUPER bad back there- GIVE THEM Air Conditioning.. being over a stove for hours with no A/C is crazy!”

“Dfac never again!! As of January 27, 2020 (rules may change) this place accepts Airman who are in dorms on meal card. Food is super good, like the SAC if you were ever stationed at Fort Sam. Chicken tenders? Slap. Chicken ceasar salad? Slaps. Sicilian sandwich? Slaps. Catfish sandwich? Trash. Mozzarella sticks? Pretty OK. Guacamole burger? SLAPS. You can also cal your order ahead and it'll be ready by the time you get there. 10/10”

“Super small, but so fast. Claimed my bag within 3 mins of getting off the plane. They are all very organized and kind. Ugh I don't remember the guys name who was organizing the baggage claim, but he was providing great entertainment with the microphone while keeping it in line! Not many places to eat but VPS isn't a layover destination so you don't really need to worry bc you can eat before and after!”

“I know that Starbucks always has a turnover of employees ? but they still try to maintain excellent quality, service, and customer service. We see a new face ? each time we visit. But way to go, Starbucks. Keep up the good work ?Parking: The parking lot is to congested most of the time ⏲️. Cars are coming in and are trying to get out.”

“This is the perfect place to grab a quick bite and fuel up after long days out adventuring in the everglades! Advertised as "not for the weak or fainthearted", this local dive is a sight for sore eyes for any who have been playing in the swamps, or visiting friends on Santa Rosa Island.Meal selection is limited and primarily military inspired in nature. Alcohol is not served to anyone who appears unhealthy or emaciated.Other amenities include archaic washing stations, laundry units, places to feel sad, and inspirational comments from the employees like "go".Seating is limited.Lots of indigenous history to persue. Brush up on your knowledge of the Gator Lounge by perusing the war-time decor adoring the walls, did you know it once burned down??Overall... I would probably not willingly return to Gator Lounge for any reason, although I have heard some people opt to cycle back through. Truly an experience you will never forget”

“We went through the drive-thru and the gentleman that helped me, was so kind. He was so friendly, and making sure he got my order correct. I enjoyed the customer service he put out there. He is friendly, nice, and very thorough.Although, my burger was wrong at least my kids food were right. LOL !”

“This store only need required help...it's too much for one person to handle. This is a pretty busy airport, the reps are exceptional especially Renae. Very helpful, multitasking and professional!”

“I had their chicken sandwich. I must say it is pretty good compared to other chicken sandwich. It is basically a ch8cken breast with their breading. It is great with the blackened ranch sauce.”

“Very clean with a polite and friendly staff.Note: The address is wrong. Says Duke FLD but actually 7SFG which is 5 miles away. Also this location has limited hours compared to most Subway.”

“This place is good, good portions, and for the sheer amount of orders they handle, very efficient.I don’t know what people expect when they leave such poor reviews. As one of the only lunch spots on this side of base it gets super busy, so yes, the wait is long, but for the amount of orders they’re taking it’s reasonable. The food is good. They only have one oven, so you can expect things to take a while when everybody gets their sandwich toasted. Especially when one person starts ordering for a whole office.As for the comments about rudeness, I haven’t experienced that at all. They don’t have time for chitchat, so they tend to be straight to the point. If you don’t know what you want before ordering, that’s on you.Yes, you’ll wait, but that’s not their fault. Build in extra time and there’s no problems here.”

“The Ribeye and filet mignon were delicious. Definitely try their .18 cents bean soup and the bread pudding! Our server was excellent.”

“Great pizza and service! Staff wonderful”

“Loved our waitress Erica ! She was great & fit right in with us ! & we got to hold a baby alligator !Kid-friendliness: They give crayons & a menu to color on”

“Hands down the best seafood and sides I’ve had in a long while. The cheese grits were creamy perfection! The shrimp and grouper was breaded and cooked to perfection. I will definitely be coming back soon with my family. The service was amazing!!”

“Delicious lunch buffet, I tried everything, including the meat items, which i don't usually eat. everything tasted good, back again, dal makhana was to die for! (fantastic) love the shrimp masala, delicious kheer. I really enjoy dining in a place where I can start with soup, and finish with salad, and have all the other delicious courses in between, and not break the bank, I recommend dining here.Vegetarian options: Dal makhana was great, I put it on everything.Parking: This place is a bit difficult to get to at times in this location, traffic can be horrendous. I'm glad the music, atmosphere and food made up for it. I'll be back. I recommend eating here.”

“Really upset with myself that I have not supported this locally owned business before. But I wont make that mistake again. Most unique pastries in town and the owner was PRECIOUS! Delicious!!!”

“My team and I have had the opportunity to dine at Dat Burrito Place multiple times over the past month, and each visit was a delightful experience from start to finish. I can confidently say that their commitment to friendly and prompt service is unmatched. From hearty burritos and flavorful rolled quesadillas to mouthwatering Mexican street corn, rich and savory birria, and light and crispy fish tacos, there's something to please every palate on their menu. Treat yourself and support local by giving Dat Burrito a try!”
