I have been going to Beefy King since I was born. Our families go back. Let me put it this way, I'm about 95% vegetarian. Mom's spaghetti and Beefy King are the exceptions. When my little sister was born she was named for the older sister of the founders... i happened to have already been sharing the same name as the younger sister. Yep, my little sister was named after Beefy King. That's dedication. That's how great that place is! My tip, whatever size sandwich you order, I always go for the classic beef (add cheese), have them put it on a bun for the next size up ... you're gonna get a lot of meat and the extra space helps. Also, Horsey sauce! It's a must, for both the sandwich and the spuds. Just grab a bottle and take it to the table with you. They do offer little cups if you're getting it to go, and you can get it through the drive thru, as well. I'm 40 now, and I live out of state, but every time I'm home I stop by. Without fail. And I guarantee you will not be disappointed when you do the same. read more

I've been hearing great things about this place for years, so I was excited to finally try it. Walking in feels like stepping back in time -- it has that old-school charm that reminds me of the restaurants from my childhood. It's clear they've stayed true to themselves all these years. One helpful note: they now take credit cards, but not American Express. I ordered an extra-large pastrami sandwich and an extra-large beef sandwich. The pastrami really surprised me -- the thinly sliced meat was incredibly flavorful and juicy. The beef was phenomenal as well. I'm so glad I went with the larger sizes because the sandwiches were just that good. I ate one at the restaurant and took the other home to enjoy the next day. Honestly, having their food two days in a row was a treat. I'll definitely be back. read more

We FINALLY made it to Beefy King and it did not disappoint!! I cannot believe it took us so long to get to this Orlando staple, but it will now always be in our weekend lunch rotation. It's located in one of our favorite areas of Orlando, the Milk District. For lunch I had the Platter which came with a Roast Beef Sandwich, Cole Slaw, Large Beefy Spuds and Kosher Dill. For my drink I got a Chocolate Shake. Everything was so fresh and so delicious. The building and decor inside is vintage and charming and has such character. All of the staff was so nice and helpful since it was our first time. We can't wait to come back soon! read more

After spending several hours walking around at nearby Leu Gardens, my husband and I were tired and hungry. A Yelp search showed that Beefy King was close by, so off we went to Beefy King. What a fun place! It's like stepping back in time. We visited on a busy Saturday afternoon but our wait was minimal. The menu primarily features sandwiches with sliced beef, pastrami, turkey, barbecue beef or pork. Sides include Beefy Tater Tots, Cole Slaw, Kosher Dill Pickles, and Chili. I ordered a meal deal for myself that included a Roast Beef Sandwich, Tater Tots, Cole Slaw, and a Kosher Dill Pickle. Everything was hot, fresh, and filling. My husband enjoyed his Corned Beef and Pastrami Sandwich with Tater but the Pumpkin Pie Milkshake (limited time only offering) was the hit of his meal. The people watching and old time feel made Beefy King an excellent choice for lunch. read more

How have I never been here before?! Beefy King is an iconic Orlando staple. The restaurant hasn't lost its iconic timeless charm. Walking into the restaurant you're transported to the late 60s with the only modern part being the prices. I got the Roast Beef sandwich with spuds. My guest got a Pastrami sandwich with onion rings. The quality of the beef was perfect! Very flavorful and not fatty and chewy like some competitors. The onion rings were crisp and well breaded. I can definitely see coming back for a nice lunch. It does get crowded with good cult following, but even with the lines, the wait was extremely fast! read more

Beefy King - Fast Food Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Beefy king is an Orlando institution. If you don't know, now you know. The roast beef sandwich does not require any sauce to taste delicious. But the friendly staff at the window will always ask if you'd like some and recommend the horseradish sauce that is freshly prepared rather than the packets. I typically visit the drive-through on my way home pick, so I can't speak as much to the ambience except that it is old school, comfortable, and nostalgic when I do venture inside. Milkshakes, onion rings, cole slaw, and the famous 'beefy spuds' (tots) are some side items to round out your meal. The drive-through line can get a little busy so if you're in a hurry, just know it may take some time as your order is made fresh. I scarfed it before I could get a picture but promise one next time. read more

It's been a while (well over 15 years) since I was last here and the sandwiches were just as tasty, tots were a little crispier than I like but tasted good, slaw was delicious. When in the area stop in . Servers were quick and friendly If you love the 70's this is your place! read more

I decided to go to Beefy king as it had been highly recommended. I walk in and bang the smell of bbq beef hits me. I got the Junior BBQ Pork Sando and some Beefy Stubs. Ate them in seconds. Food was very good. Service was good as well. Sauce bar was a highlight. Only reason for 4 stars is the bathroom needs either deep clean or a full renovation. read more

I fired up the Delorean for up to 88 miles an hour and threw 1.2 gigs watts into the flux capacitor. Beefy King is like going back in time. Limited menu a variety of sauces and simple meal done well. Ordered the roast beef sandwich and added lettuce and tomato. Could have gotten the platter for 12 but did not want the tater tots. The pink lemonade was sweet and refreshing for a hot day. BBQ pork was also ordered and it was better than the roast beef sandwich. It is a shredded pork and sauced already. Pretty tangy sauce and you can add more if you want. The tater tots were good but not a real sharing size. The sauces were pretty good and the roast beef needed a little moisture added to it as well as seasoning. The staff was very friendly and based on the number of tradesman eating there you can tell it is a good value. Well gotta hop in the Delorean and get back to the future. read more

One of my go to spots anytime I'm running errands in the Bumby area! I feel like you get so much food for the money, I'm never disappointed or still hungry, I love that you can see them watching the meat getting sliced fresh! The interior is a bit old and outdated and cramped, but I honestly think that is part of the charm of the place, and the drive thru is pretty efficient even though if you go at lunch time it will be really backed up, so keep that in mind! read more

I needed a quick lunch after an appointment and this place was nearby. It was small, filled with regulars and a friendly environment. Reasonably priced, very tasty and hit the spot. I got the pastrami and at first was surprised at what looked small, but as an American used to oversize all the time, it was actually just right. I was so full after my sandwich, plentiful tater tots, and delicious pumpkin pie shake, I didn't have dinner, only snacks. I'm coming back for sure. read more

Vintage looking restaurant - mom & pop place. Seating is kinda limited and it can get busy to where I always see a line wrapped around the building for the drive thru. People are super nice and helpful. I personally have to get the XL because it evens out the bun to meat ratio. I wish the tots were crispier so I tried the onion rings and they are crispier. I wish there was an option for melted cheese on the sandwiches. They have a few sauces and I recommend trying the jack sauce. read more

I heard about Beefy King from the episode of "Everything on the Menu" , so while in Orlando travelled to try them. During lunch they were very busy as it's a popular place. I found the roast beef sandwich to be nothing special. The meat was under seasoned but there were sauces to put on it. The horseradish sauce was a little mild for my taste. It had no bite. I didn't try the others. The hush puppy potato tots were very good and reheated well. I traveled 20 miles to go there but don't see the need to go again. read more

We went to Beefy King a few years ago and it was really good. Only complaint at the time was that the buns were soaking wet by the time we got home. So, today we went with a game plan. We decided to eat in. We ordered a ham sandwich, a few beef sandwich platters, and a lemonade. I will say the lemonade was really good, sweet, not tart. Perfect. Our food on the other hand... As soon as we got our food we sat down, the sandwiches, which were all made to order, were ice cold. The buns were not toasted or grilled, and there wasn't much difference in the amount of beef they give you from the regular size to the extra. The buns were also already soaking wet. The tater tots were okay, but not great. The coleslaw was really good. We probably won't go back. read more

We came here with some friends one day for lunch. I had been hearing about the legendary Beefy King for about all eight years I've lived in Orlando, but I just hadn't made it out there yet. Shame on me, because it was absolutely perfect. From the beat-up look of the building, making it look like it was, indeed, made in the 60's. To the menu that was unapologetically simple. The ambiance of this place was old, comforting, and I could have stayed in that building all day long. It brought me back to childhood. Wonderful. The service was great. Easy. You go up to the counter, place your order, and retrieve it when it's done. Not a lot could even go wrong. As for the food. This was the true shining star of this place. I got an X-Large Roast Beef Sandwich with a side of Beefy Spuds. I also got to try a Regular Bar BQ Pork Sandwich with a side of Onion Rings. Just excellent. I won't go into too much detail, because with how much I loved this place, it's going to just sound sarcastic, but it was like some nice man made this food for us in a backyard barbecue. We all know that's where the best food comes from. The roast beef was good, the BBQ pork was good, the sides were immaculately crispy. You really just can't go wrong. Come here. read more

Pros: Love the vintage vibe. Feels like you're back in the day when the place first opened. Service was quick and easy and the food all came out correctly. The menu was also quick and easy. Lots of simple sounding sandwich options. The food that we got was very good. Sometimes, simpler is better. This place shows that. Even the sides were perfectly crispy and not too greasy or anything. Cons: No cons. I wish it was closer to me. Lol. Tips: Get that roast beef. It is their signature item for a reason. read more

Simple direct and to the point. The food is great, just a well done roast beef sandwich. The service is great i love the fact it feels like your walking into a time machine. The decor feels like its the original furniture which make me feel like they opened up and made an amazing product and never had to depend on a gimmick or a fancy remodel to keep patrons coming back. Average noise levels, they do close earlier than most restaurants so make sure you pay attention to the operating hours. read more

We were recommended to beefy king by the late great Adam, the woo of YouTube fame he did a Vlog about it and said how great it was. So we decided to check it out and he was right we love the place. The service was good even though it was crowded it went pretty fast. The sandwiches were darn tasty. I had the beefy king and my wife had a turkey sandwich. We really enjoyed it. The soda insides were good too. I highly recommend it if you're in the Orlando area even if you're not it's worth the trip. read more

An Orlando tradition for over 50 years. Old-school no frills place with the best roast beef sandwiches that just melt in your mouth. I only have 2 issues with his place.

Been coming here for 12+ years. Never had a problem. Well today all that changed. Just wanna get straight to the point. Two roast beef Sandwiches ruined my car seat, clothes and jeans while visiting on my lunch break. I was 5 mins away from my job. The sandwiches were soggy to the touch. Roast beef water was dripping from the bag after I picked it up. This is extremely unacceptable especially how the so called manager handled the situation casually saying I'll be gladly to give you a free sandwich. No I don't want a sandwich id like my seat detailed and clothes dry cleaned. Not to mention missing work because this is not presentable. read more

5/5 - Came in for a food review. Even though I'm not a big fan of these kind of sandwiches, these were AWESOME! The meat was so tender and delicious! Both sandwiches were incredible with or without the dressing on the hot Reuben. This is my first ever 5/5, and I will definitely be coming back if I am in the area! I can see why both the drive thru and inside were packed! Food was cheap and flavorful. TikTok Reviewer: acaicaitlin read more

Beefy King - Roast beef Sandwich and Beefy Tots - Fast Food Near Me - Orlando, Florida

A great local spot for a cheaper meal option. We ordered some roast beef sandwiches, they are freshly cooked roast beef that is sliced to order and then served on a Kaiser roll. The meat itself was fresh, juicy, and flavorful. They have many different sauces to try here. There is a standard bbq sauce, horseradish sauce, spicy bbq, and jack sauce which is a combination of horseradish and spicy bbq sauces. The service is great and helpful as each order is made fresh and you can taste the difference. We also ordered some of their tator tots but those were eaten before I could snap a picture. The inside is simple tables and floor to ceiling windows. They have their own parking lot which gets busy around lunch time. read more

Time to update my review! I still got the No. 6 Regular (1/2 fresh roast beef and 1/2 pastrami), but this time I tried the "Jack" sauce as recommended at the drive through window. The sauce is a combination of the house sweet sauce and the house spicy sauce. It's fairly thick and has a great kick! (Not sure I could handle the house spicy after the "Jack" combination!) :) What a great sandwich! Also, a shout out to the drive through employees. They are always so friendly and good for a quick chat. I always leave with a smile on my face and happiness in my stomach. Beefy King is definitely an Orlando gem! read more

Giving this a 3.5 star review. Beefy King is an Orlando staple. Is the food great? No. Is the service great? No. Is there a fabulous atmosphere? No. But we still go - why? BECAUSE IT'S A STAPLE. But seriously, give it a try. Don't expect much, and you'll be pleasantly surprised. I like their turkey sandwich, tots and sweet tea. read more

Beefy King - An Orlando Staple - Fast Food Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I wasn't a fan of Beefy King when I first tried it, and I'll say I'm still not a fan. Honestly, I like Arby's WAY better. I could eat an Arby's Sandwich without sauce and I'd say I had to add a ton of sauces to Beefy King's version just to get through the dry meat. I ordered the XL version and it was pretty loaded with roast beef. The beef had a good flavor, but it wasn't hot. I think they kind of "reheat" the meat when they're making the sandwich, but it didn't carry through the whole pile. Maybe a regular size would have been hotter. Then the bun was stuck to the paper and ripped a whole in the bottom. Since the beef was more chipped than sliced, some fell out. The horsey sauce was too thick to get out of the plastic containers and the BBQ sauce was really runny so it was a messy experience too. The Tots were Excellent though. Hot and crunchy! Maybe I'll try a different meat or something if I go again (I probably won't). Cold, dry roast beef isn't what an iconic Orlando restaurant should be serving up. read more

Beefy King - XL Beef with Tots. Bun suck to the paper. Meat was a bit dry and not hot. Tots were excellent! - Fast Food Near Me - Orlando, Florida

I love this place. The tots, the sauces, and the sandwiches are great. However they usually mess up my takeout order. Today I ordered a turkey pastrami and when I got home and started to eat, they gave me a beef sandwich instead which is disappointing when I was craving the item I ordered. Last time they forgot a sandwich from my order. The time before that they gave me the wrong side item. They work really quickly but in that rush they seem to not get the correct items. Just need to unpack the order to make sure its what I wanted before I get all the way home. read more

Visited for a sliced beef sandwich. I have spent years looking for a replacement for the beef sandwiches they used to serve at the chain of restaurants, Lums here in Florida. As sorry to say, Beefy King didn't do that. Was it good, absolutely, yes, was it great, no. read more

Like a number of other Yelp reviewers, I've driven past the classic Beefy King plenty of times but never stopped. Until this time. Like stepping out of a time machine from a block away, Beefy King welcomes you with a classic mom and pop diner look and feel. The food prep and set up area looked modest but seemed very efficient. My Junior Platter containing a roast beef sandwich, cole slaw, large Beefy spuds and kosher dill pickle arrived in a short time. The roast beef was sliced fresh and was tasty and juicy. The spuds were crispy and firm, the cole slaw hit the "classic" button, and the dill pickle was crunchy and "dill-y" as expected. I went heavy on the sandwich with a mixture of barbecue and horsie sauce, just because I really like sauce! Go and treat yourself, if you haven't already, and bring your out-of-town guest or family member. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for quite awhile. I'm down in the Mills district quite a bit. I'm not exactly sure what the 5 star reviewers are eating, because I was not very impressed with the food. Maybe the hype is the fact that it's an 'ol school diner type of establishment. (Definitely needs a good scrubbing) I was greeted very kindly by the gentleman behind the counter. I felt like I was walking onto an old movie set with all of the fun memorabilia. I ordered the coleslaw, onion rings, and a regular sized roast beef sandwich. Prices were good, but that's where the good ended. The coleslaw was decent, but nothing outstanding. The onion rings were very greasy. I bit into one, expecting a soft fat ring of deliciousness, and got a very skinny onion "skin." No onion, all breading. I was advised that their sandwiches were served hot. Although there was a good amount of meat, it was lukewarm on the outside, and cold under the mountain of meat. There wasn't any flavor to the beef, sadly. It came with cheese and onion. I felt like they were boiled onions, so no flavor either. The bun was soft and fresh, literally sticking to the paper wrapper. Overall, the food was edible but not enjoyable. I think it's a one and done for me. PS...the horsie sauce was yummy! read more
