Great service. Large portions of food. Good prices. Popular place has live music on the outside seating area. Friendly fun atmosphere.

Perfectly located on the square in downtown Spanish Springs. Lots of outdoor seating and a great bar to boot. Our server was great. Very nice and attentive. Food arrived quickly. The lamb gyro was huge and tasted good. My daughter got the bacon cheeseburger. It was better than the gyro. The Parmesan French fries were good too. Everything was just good, not remarkable. The atmosphere was the clear winner. Very fun place to just sit and enjoy yourself. Plus, it's in the villages. I love this place. read more

Service was good and the food was ok. But it was hard to enjoy the meal due to the high volume of the band that they had in their outdoor dining area. It was as loud as listening from the front row of the bands that play in the square - which might be ok if we were there to listen to the band. The noise level outdoors was more than we could tolerate so we ate indoors. Even indoors the waitress had to shout to be heard. Overall not a pleasant experience. Unfortunately my wife likes the food so we may go back sometime when they don't have a band and we can eat in the much more pleasant outdoor seating area. read more

One of our favorite places to go when we are in the area. Our server was attentive and very personable. The food was great as always. Even though it was a busy evening we did not feel rushed. read more

Excellent Gyro meal tonight. Meat was tender and flavorful. Generous portions for an excellent price. Service was outstanding and the since the restaurant is on the square the ambiance was great read more

Amerikanos Grille - Mediterranean Near Me - Lady Lake, Florida

Living next to Eastport our only similar option is Yamas for a full service Mediterranean restaurant. Amerikanos is leagues above Yamas and worth the trip due to the food quality and prices. I tried the lamb gyro platter and liked the seasoning of the meat and large portion. My husband had a side Greek salad with his entree and was delighted to find a scoop of potato salad on top of the salad. Our friends advised that the potato salad on the salad is a "Florida thing" - definitely recommend. Looking forward to going back and trying more items. read more

The place is TINY inside so I can see it getting loud on a busy night. Service is attentive and the food is yummy. It is a little far from where I live, but it was worth the drive. It is the only Greek place in the area. The chicken kebabs was super tender and deliciously seasoned. Parking is tricky given all the construction in that area but like all other town centers is fun atmosphere. read more

Ok meal (2.5), nothing to brag about. Gyro was so so with little flavor. Basic surroundings, meh on the gyro salad and actually, it was a little Disappointing. read more

We came for dinner and Connor our server was great, we shared a large Greek salad and a Chicken Kabob dinner came with (3) skewers, rice & Parmesan fries, added Pita bread. The food came very fast. read more

I've enjoyed Gyros and salads there and have been there many times. Nice servers and music on the patio.

Stopped in for a quick bite and ended up really enjoying this plate. The gyro meat was well seasoned and tender, with a nice savory flavor. The salad was fresh and colorful with crisp lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, and tangy feta cheese. The pepperoncini and dressing added a nice kick that brought everything together. Overall, it was a simple but satisfying meal -- fresh ingredients, good portion size, and great flavor. Definitely a solid choice if you're craving something light but still filling read more

We had the Mezze plate for an appetizer and was pretty much full on that alone. I had the Greek Freak shrimp appetizer for my meal and it was perfect! It's so hard to find perfectly cooked shrimp! read more

Really good meal outside under the lights with my mom. Had Saganaki and split a gyro platter. Couple of beers and great prices/value. Had my doubts but this was great. Very good service too. Definitely will be back. read more

My parents and I are here for dinner before their bowling league and we had a great experience. They come here often but it was my first time since I'm in town visiting. I ordered the gyro platter and they ordered the chicken pita and chicken kebabs. We each loved our meals and they came out quick too. I really liked the gyro platter because it came with a fresh Greek salad, rice and tzatziki sauce. The service was really quick even though they were packed and our waitress was really nice and accommodating. I know my parents will be back soon and next time I'm in town I'd like to stop in again too! read more

Terrible service tonight, usually much better. Was told "it's busy", really was not. I hate this.

I was very impressed with my lunch on Friday. The restaurant was busy, but, wife and I were seated promptly. Service was good, and fast considering the full dining room. The ambiance is casual and friendly. I ordered the gyro wrap with a side Greek salad. I thought it was outstanding. First, the portion was huge. The salad was excellent with tomatoes, cucumbers, and red onions bursting with freshness. I loved the feta, olives, and dressing. It was a delicious salad. The gyro wrap was maybe the most tasty gyro EVER. Sometimes gyro meat can be a little dry after miles of rotating on a skewer. This generous portion of sliced gyro was the opposite; moist and flavorful. The wrap was soft, and the lettuce and tomatoes inside were perfect. The tzatziki sauce was the perfect condiment. My wife ordered the Gyro Plate which was basically a decomposed Gryo wrap. She was also impressed with her choice. I highly recommend. Our dining neighbors said the Philly Cheese Steak is awesome. read more

We have eaten here a couple of times. Food is rock Solid prices are good. Make sure to get some baklava.

Amerikanos has the perfect atmosphere to enjoy a night on the square. They're close enough to the Spanish Springs town square to enjoy the live music at night. They have heaters out on their patio, so you can enjoy the space year round. The food we loved: -fried calamari -gyro -Mediterranean pasta -Greek salad The pasta was to die for. The perfect oil base and the vegetables were perfectly cooked and mixed in. Our server was amazing and even went above and beyond when figuring out the bill at the end of the night. This is definitely a must try when you're in the Villages! read more

Great location, food and service. Waiter was on top of it. However, waiting to get a table took forever, and was puzzled because several sat empty but host had to go check, and check before finally seating us. read more

Sorry, but we tried. We had out of town company and wanted to show off Americano's. We arrived at about 2:45 pm. We were given a beeper to let us know when a table would be ready. But, we saw lots of tables open and yet we waited..... After 20 minutes of waiting, we went to Ruby Tuesday to eat. Ya, sorry, but we didn't want to wait longer. We usually love this place. Maybe the staff should stagger their lunch times.....or simply tell people that their wait time will be 20-30 minutes. We will steer clear during their lunch times and this may be good for others to keep in mind. Several months ago, we chatted with one of the owners and we know how hard she works on building the business. So, please know that we don't want to hurt your business, but rather inform you that you need a fix for this situation, and I don't know what can be done. It may be better to let people sit and inform them that there is a slight delay until 3:00 pm or something like that. I know how much you advertise and of course, nothing hurts a restaurant more than bad reviews. Usually I would give you 4 or 5 stars. Normally I also post on Trip Advisor, but I won't this time. We were very disappointed that we have to go elsewhere for a late lunch.... We WILL be back and will bring other visitors with us. read more

My gyrus plate was good except the quantities on the rice and salad were small, especially the rice. My date had a burger said it tasted old and could only take a couple of bites. We told the server about the burger and instead of offering something else, she laughed and said I can see that. Probably would not go back read more

Had lunch delivered to me which was a Gyro with parmesan fries and a side of hummus. Everything was super delicious! I couldn't finish it all which was quite alright because now I have leftovers for tomorrow!! Next time I will try dining in to get that authentic experience (service) as well! read more

We've eaten here a few times now and have done take out. It's consistently good. The Gyro and Gyro salad are wonderful and have a ton of meat. Our new favorite is the Key Lime Pie - super tart and sweet - great presentation. They also have happy hour all day long, so the drink prices are fantastic! We'll be back. read more

Stopped in for dinner the first night visiting my parents. The place was very busy and we were told there would be about a 20 minute wait. Much to our surprise, they were able to get us seated within 5 minutes if we didn't mind a table outside where the heater was broken. Our waitress was really friendly but incredibly busy. We ordered an appetizer since we were starving, the falafel and hummus. The falafel was so good! For our entrees I ordered the butterflied shrimp, my mom and husband both ordered the Philly cheesesteak, and my dad ordered the Ruben. All of our meals were excellent. My parents said everything they've ordered from there has always been really good. We would definitely come back the next time we are in The Villages, but hopefully on a warmer day! read more

Good food. A little small but manageable. Reasonable prices and good drinks. Close to the Sharon and they take reservations.

Great chicken pita with generous portion . Delicious . I chose the Mediterranean rice as side dish and it was really good . Also had the limoncello sangria which was very good for a warm Saturday afternoon. Excellent and attentive service Service was excellent read more

Since Chili's DIDN'T WANNA wait on us... and we left - ended up going to Amerikano's. YUM! Sat at the bar and Ryan was one of the bartenders who helped us - he's amazing!! Friendly, knowledgeable, helpful - big smile and big personality! We ordered the bar menu chicken quesadillas and my husband LOVED THEM! He said the flavor was spot on! I had the lunch special - gyro wrap with fries. Again... delish! Food came out quickly and hot! Amerikano's has live entertainment during the day and it was a happening-lively-loud lunch. No complaints... the place was rocking! read more

Love the fish sandwich Would definitely explore the menu further. Service and location a plus read more

Great service. Had the fish and chips was delicious. Also had fish tacos which were filling and tasted great. Definitely will try again.

We love this place. It's busy and loud but great atmosphere. Sitting outside listening to music is the best. My husband can smoke his cigar if he wants. The Philly cheesesteak sandwich is the best one we ve found since moving here. The star is the steak kabobs. Very tender and flavorful. My only complaint is about the Greek salad. They put hard cooked eggs in their Greek potato salad which isn't typical for that. Eggs aren't my thing so this eliminates one of my favorites. read more

Food was amazing . Service was great. With all the construction going on, on the street outside the restaurant it was very hard to get to.

The food here is delicious. Wait staff always polite and professional. Cost is comparable to the quality and service. We especially love the simple fish and fries, tartar sauce and a sweet tea. Nice environment close the the square for music. read more

I'm still thinking about those French fries . The were seasoned with a bit of Italian herbs and Parmesan cheese. Wonderful ! My husband loved his Bloody Mary and our hummus appetizer was great. read more

We stopped in here to have lunch while doing a week long visit to the Villages. We wanted to see the Northern part of the area. It was a really cold day but we still wanted to eat outside and this fit the bill. Since it was pretty cold out (really!) and I was on vacation, I asked for a Spanish coffee. The waitress said they couldn't make one. I asked for a cup of coffee with Kahlua in it instead. She brought that - but no cream, so had to send her off for that, but even before I put the creamer in it was only lukewarm. The menu listed a few specials so I chose the mini gyros and the onion ring stack. I asked for no tomatoes. She brought my gyros out and acknowledged that they'd forgotten to leave off the tomatoes, so I just picked them off. The onion rings were good, but came about 10 minutes before my gyros, so not great timing. I flagged the waitress down to ask for more coffee & Kahlua, she said the bar was out of Kahlua. What?! I said I'll just have some more coffee. She returned with the dregs of the pot, not kidding, less then a 1/2" of coffee and pours it in my cup. It tasted like burnt rubber. She really wasn't trying to hard and it showed. They did have a young guy singing which was entertaining mostly because of his poor song choices. I'd give this place a pass. read more

We arrived at Amerikanos at 4:30 and got seated right away. We ordered the chicken kabobs. They were delicious. We received a huge house salad that came with the meal and we received three skewers of the kabobs. A good amount of food for a great price. We even had some leftovers to bring home! It is in the old section of the Villages, so it started to get crowded as the evening wore on. They do accept reservations. read more

Fun spot that is quiet enough for good conversation, or more raucous in the bar area! Contemporary art, modern looking without being cold or sterile. They serve fresh, delicious food and the servers have been consistently patient and never rush you. I enjoy their salads with lots of red onions. Had a delicious lamb burger that was out of this world! read more

We had multiple types of experiences here, 2 kind of off and 1 very good. The 2 kind of "off" were sitting outside, and the main reason it was off was very drunk and obnoxious bar patrons... at lunch time. Also, service outside was very slow and not very friendly. The one time we sat inside, service was fast and friendly. The gyro platter is an enormous amount of food, enough for a second meal taking home, or enough to share for me and my husband, for $14.99. When ordering the gyro sandwich, though, for $10.99, it's much less food and really just enough for one, so for the price difference, the platter is the much better option. Still, the food is good. We would go again, but would sit inside. read more

Amerikanos Grille - Weekly specials as of May 2022. - Mediterranean Near Me - Lady Lake, Florida

The service was good. We got seated quickly. However, this is a very modest menu offered to customers. The Greek salad was very standard. The Gyro meat was a combined lamb and beef that the restaurant buys so it's basically a manufactured meat so not a real meat product. I would not eat here again. read more
