Best produce I have seen in a long time. Clean environment and friendly staff. Greeted by the family dog.

First time purchase at farm market. Very disappointed with produce- mango, plums and cucumbers all rotten when opened. After a long drive to get here I really was excited to shop at a farm to table market. So this was a one and done for me. read more

A small, local eatery set in a nice farmers market . Check dates and times before you go.

I have been shopping there for a long time , the ladies that help with the farm are nice and welcoming ... NOT the same with the owners but I kept going back for fresh produce and to support a local farm ....why not The rule at the cashier was at least $10.00 to pay with card ... no problem , I try to always pay with cash but today I don't have any in my wallet ....‼ Today I was charged 40% ‼‼‼‼‼‼on my Purchase without a warning or any sign that at the establishment ‼ Be aware people I will definitely NEVER GO BACK ‼ read more

We came at the invitation of friends. We had never heard of it and loved the idea of eating under the 200+ year old FL live oak. Owned by a couple who met in culinary school. They moved here to their family farm to open their dream bistro. All food is grown or raised locally. We had the beet skin appetizer, split the roast beef au jus sandwich and fresh zucchini side. A solid 4 star. It was very good, but the sandwich was quite messy. The potato and corn soup was just ok. But the five star for us was our server, Autumn. She made our experience delightful. read more

Five stars is a lot for me but this place is outstanding!! Tucked away from the road it's beautifully set up under an angel tree with a small area covered off to the side. Farm to table Mediterranean, and fresh as fresh can be !! Everything was delicious, I had gyros, there was an order of shawarma, fresh baked Greek bread for the table. Well sized portions, nobody left hungry. They suggest reservations, and I would agree with that. We didn't have reservations the day we went, It was a little chilly in Florida, so we figured we wouldn't have a problem for a table which we didn't. The staff were friendly and accommodating, we had a little bit of wait between service, but it just gave us more time to enjoy the surroundings and chat. There is a nice little nursery on the property with fresh produce and beautiful plantings, will definitely be returning again. It was a lovely day out. read more

Today marked a disappointing end to what had been many years of regularly purchasing my produce from this farm, but today was my final visit. Upon arriving, I noticed the clearly posted 5 mph speed limit sign, which I fully respect, especially given the foot traffic between the farm, market, and bistro. I entered the lot at an appropriately slow pace--so slow, in fact, I could've walked faster. At the time, the area was entirely empty of pedestrians. While browsing the market with about a dozen customers, the clerk made an unnecessarily loud announcement reminding everyone about the 5 mph limit. This announcement felt more like a performance than a public safety notice. Moments later,AFTER completing my purchase, the same clerk returned my card while publicly chastising me for "speeding" and claiming I had endangered others. She declared--loudly enough for everyone to hear--that she had tried to flag me down outside to "yell" at me, but I hadn't seen her. Had I had this interaction with her before completing my purchase, I would have just left the produce. This kind of public humiliation is not only unprofessional but deeply inappropriate. If she truly believed there was a concern, it should have been addressed privately and respectfully, not after the transaction was complete, and certainly not in a way designed to embarrass. As a 30-year school teacher, I would never publicly embarrass my students, so I was shocked by a clerk who would do this to customers. To be clear: I was not speeding. But I've seen how management responds to other dissatisfied customers--often with defensiveness, gaslighting, or outright dismissal. I fully expect the same here. Regardless, I know the truth. I value professionalism and respect, and I will gladly take my business to a place where those values are returned in kind. read more

My favorite restaurant in central Florida. so peaceful atmosphere, the food is amazing and very friendly staff. One of the hidden gems in Central Florida. read more

BYOB Alert! Saw a table of women enjoying a birthday meal over a few bottles and it looked jubilant. We stopped by on a Wednesday afternoon around 1pm and things were bumping! We had a 20 minute wait to peruse the farmers market and bask in the shade. The food was amazing. Fresh, delicious and organic. The bread was really tasty. LOVED the crispy beet skins and fried goat cheese with delicious pomodoro sauce. They were sold out of some things already which was a bummer but we still got an incredibly tasty meal in a beautiful setting at the base of spectacular tree overlooking the grounds. Everyone who served us was a complete delight and so friendly. Will definitely be back if we come through! They also have a sweet tea that is super refreshing (not too sweet)! Yum! read more

The service was HORRIBLE. It was not the servers fault as nothing was coming out of the kitchen.

The service was great. Waitress very attentive. The food was good. Avocado was wonderful. My displeasure was with the cashier he was rude and had a mean attitude. He caused his servicer to be under tipped. I personally will not return. read more

Bountiful Bistro sits under a large GORGEOUS tree with the view of the farm store and garden. We made reservations as it was suggested for Saturday at lunch time. Distanced dining with friendly wait staff in masks. The menu has me wanting to try everything! There are apps, salads and various sandwiches. All veggies grown and fresh picked that day or so. I love a good fries green tomato so I had to test these out. These giant juicy and deliciously breaded tomatoes certainly passed the test. They were delivered on a bed of greens and had the right amount of crisp to them. We shared a delicious salad, super fresh veggies and homemade dressings. We also spit the savory grilled chicken sandwich and the hey Mikey. Both came recommended and neither disappointed. Everything was super fresh and tasty. Even the bread was made that day! Once finished with your meal j recommend heading over to the shop to check out the fruits and veggies for sale. All grown on premise or items from locals. We planned our day around a hike as lunch... it was a perfect combo for this area and day! read more

Lovely location! Our lunch under the massive live oak was delightful. Great food, attentive service, we will be back!

It doesn't get more farm to table than sitting under an oak tree at a cozy table watching the staff cut the lettuce that will go into your salad. What a unique and charming experience! The food was good too. Between four of us we had the roasted yellow beet skins, egg rolls (that were good but somewhat juicy inside), the Asian salad, the burger, the mahi mahi sandwich and the heirloom tomato salad. All were very tasty. The mahi sandwich was an especially arge piece of fish and tasty. We shared a piece of strawberry pie for dessert which was not overly sweet. If you are looking for authentic food, do not. Is this place. read more

Go weekly for produce and have eaten there a few times. Freshest produce and local made products around. Price and quality better than Publix!! Only drawback is one young lady who works there. Apparently, likes to intrude and 'be the boss' in a negative way each and every time I have been there. I've heard her to do same to others as well. If I avoid her it would be 5 star. Roasted beets with goat cheese (when dining open) is amaaaazing. read more

Fantastic lunch! Great service, food and atmosphere. It's a bit of a drive from Orlando area but totally worth it. Plan an afternoon drive to the country. read more

Great service and wonderful fresh food from the farm. Very personable, attentive but busy waiter. All the food was fantastic, I really enjoyed my Fried Green Tomato BLT. My wife enjoyed her dish as well. It's outdoors under a beautiful tree, great atmosphere for dining outside. It is closed for summer so we're looking forward to going back in October. This is a real gem and the owners take great pride in their restaurant. We enjoyed the market next door and bought a few things. Farm fresh is the way to go. read more

Another great menu this year! Look, we have been going here for the past couple of years and again, never disappointed in ANYTHING we have been served! The food is off the charts delicious and the wait staff is nothing less than FABULOUS!!! The cooking staff, I don't know how they come up with these combinations, but it works and works amazingly!!! Trust me, you will not be disappointed!!! read more

We had a great lunch with friends under the big oak tree! Then enjoyed a walk through the farm store (where we could have had free bananas ) and the nursery. Highly recommend. If you're drinking water, take your own reusable water bottle so you don't contribute to more plastic waste. read more

3 my friend and i ate here on nov 16th. The food was wonderful and staff very helpful. My friend is handicapped and brought her puppy with her. Lunch was great, puppy was well behaved and greeted other diners. There was also a lovely flea market. My friend needed to sit for a moment. There are some tables/ stands by the produce tent. My friend leaned against the table for a few moments to rest. Close by was 3 adults and 2 small chiildren.. My friends puppy had never been around a child. The puppy barked at the children. A young child came out of the produce buliding and told my friend that she needed to control her dog. This young lady was rude and we were spoken to rather rudely. So although it is a lovely place i would give more thought to whether you want to take your dog. read more

Sad to have to revise my review. We went for lunch today and the hostess refused to honor our reservation. Very snippy. Not a good impression. The menu has changed a huge amount to more of a Middle Eastern influence, instead of farm to table. After having been loyal customers for over a year, we will not be back due to poor treatment and horrible new menu. read more

What a fantastic find! We went to Bountiful Bistro with friends based on their recommendation. It's a little off the path, but that's part of what makes it so good. The grounds are beautiful. We sat outside under an old, enormous live oak tree. Our waitress, Autumn, was amazing - super attentive and knowledgeable. (Bonus: there was live entertainment). Our table had edamame, chickpea soup, tabouli, potato wedges, and chicken shawarma. The food was fresh and served hot. The menu was much more varied than I expected. The food leans Middle East / Mediterranean. I heard Wednesday is their Farmer's Market. read more

This is the most distinctive dining experience in Lake County Every year they expand their menu with eclectic yet tasty dishes. Do plan on taking half of your order home so you can partake of their scrumptious, homemade desserts, including fruit, pies, and cakes . Be sure to make reservations or you may have a very long wait. read more

You can't beat the outdoor location. The whole atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. You sit under a huge oak tree with a good breeze and enjoy your meal. Beets were a favorite and were a favorite. We will return. read more

This was the most charming place to eat at on a sunny day!! It has a huge oak tree in the middle of the property with Spanish moss hanging down they put cafe tables and chairs under this massive, beautiful tree and that is where you have your lunch!! It was enchanting!! All on a real growing farm where you can buy things they grow in their real garden! I saw a woman walking out with a bag full of ears of corn!! Lunch was as simple as you want it to be. Fried green tomatoes and any kind of sandwich you want! You do have to make reservations. read more

Nice outside place under a huge Live Oak Friday was fish fry. Big piece of battered Cod plus sides of Mac & cheese & slaw. Staff friendly. Dining closes in summer months but farm vegetables are open year round. Suggest calling ahead for reservations. Dogs welcome. Menu of everyday fare can be found on line. read more

What a heavenly place to eat a delicious lunch. My daughter and I ate there recently and had such a great time and a wonderful fresh, healthy lunch. Best place in Central Florida to relax and enjoy lunch. Cute market also to take home fresh produce. read more

I heard so much about this place and decided to go with a friend to celebrate my birthday about 10 days ago. The weather has been on the warm side yet there was a nice breeze to sit under the oak tree. Several menu items weren't available as they needed to use the kitchen to cook them and it was too warm to do that. This left only sandwiches and a few appetizers. The ceviche was ok. My lunch was a beef and cheese sandwich, another ok but not something to drive there to eat. They said they will probably shift to serving breakfast only for the summer. I won't return because it wasn't worth the long drive for food that just didn't blow me away. Perhaps they need to re-invent their approach for such beautiful property. read more

Our party of 8 including 4 teens loved everything we tasted! It was a wonderful experience! Will return SOON!! Left with some fresh greens and tomatoes from the market on site. Everyone also enjoyed touring the garden. read more

The perfect place to be. Creative menu and different mixes and matches. Wonderful veggies, fruits and eggs. Need cookies for dessert. Please sell your breads to public. That's all folks, come on over, read more

We were pleasantly surprised at this little hidden jewel. Everything is Florida grown with many headliners from the organic gardens in front of you. The old huge southern oak is awesome! The wait staff is friendly and efficient. And most most importantly, the food was exceptional! Everyone at our table felt the food exceeded expectations-highly recommend! read more

Decided to check out this local farm that provides a good selection of veggies to farmers markets around the Orlando area. It's about an hour drive from Orlando to Okahumpa off of Highway 27. It's not a gigantic field but a good size one. Parking is along the dirt entrance and in an open field further in. This morning it was pretty busy. Found a spot at the entrance and walked up to the entrance. This morning had a mini last minute farmers market inside due to unforeseen circumstances. There were tents for other produce, honey, dips that people can buy etc. They also have a bistro that sells farm to table foods which I mainly came for. The special for today was a an Idaho Trout dish with bacon quinoa, Swiss chard and a Gaelic sauce. The bistro opens at 11am but got there a little early and sat out under the big tree that provided shade but a nice view of the market happening across from me. The food came out pretty quick. The presentation came out on a paper container. The trout was a nice portion that covered the swish chard pieces and the bacon quinoa. The garlic sauce smell was amazing. The trout was lightly fried on both side. The skin was included as I didn't mind at. It had a nice crunch to it and cooked perfectly. The bacon quinoa was extremely tasteful. The Swiss chard pieces was cooked perfectly. Overall, this was a super tasteful brunch item that definitely filled my stomach up. They usually post the item of the week on Tuesdays on their Facebook group page aka Bountiful Farms. read more

What a great destination for lunch. We dined under a giant live oak, and our experience was outstanding. I had the fried green tomato BLT with a side of potato salad. So yummy. We had some great appetizers (beet skins!!!) and really enjoyed being outside. Reservations are a good idea and don't forget to shop the produce stand. read more

First visit last week and will return. Relaxed setting. Strolled around the plants and small market after a simple and satisfying lunch.

I found this when I was driving the back roads through Okahumpka and couldn't wait to try it. I met a girlfriend here and we had a lovely lunch on a cool Florida afternoon. The food was outstanding, fresh and very tasty. Our server was friendly and did a great job of balancing all the tables she had. Sitting under the large tree was the perfect setting for a farm to table restaurant. They have a constant changing menu so there is always something new to try. Fantastic concept! read more

Setting is amazing with 100 year old oak tree. Food was homemade and interesting touch with different flavors. Not my cup of tea. Beautiful farm and good service. Expensive like everything else these days. read more

After living in the villages for two years I can finally say I found a place that I love. What a beautiful farm and bistro and the over 300 year old oak tree that is incredibly gorgeous makes this place, a picture perfect location. Now for the food, I was told by someone that recommended the place that it was just salads and sandwiches nothing fancy, well that was wrong. First the salads, imagine everything fresh from a farm, beautiful tomatoes, different types of greens and homemade dressings, I'm hooked on the homemade blue cheese and would love the recipe (hint) and the variety of salads offered is outstanding. The starters are crazy good, loaded beet skins, I can't even begin, the beets are so flavorful that I could just eat them plain but the toppings brings them to higher level. The fried green tomatoes cooked to perfection and the Poppin Nannies well my mouth is watering as I write about them, goat cheese that just melts in your mouth. As for the sandwiches we have tried several and each one is delicious and amazing in its own way. Some sandwiches are on charcoal bread and for me being spoiled with NYC and my hometown Morristown NJ farm to table restaurants I've never had this but it was delicious. I wish I could pick just one but I have some yet to try but I can't imagine I would have anything bad to say but the ones we've had have been simply delicious. They also have homemade soups which I've yet to try mostly because I forget but today they had roasted beet soup which I still wish I had tried. AND they have homemade pies, last time there the hubby had the blueberry with fresh whipped cream and he wished he had ordered extra to go. I've eaten in some incredible restaurants, met great chefs and dined in their kitchens so I value each experience but the most incredible part of all this is their kitchen is in like a trailer type building which proves it doesn't matter the place the outcome is the most important part and these Chefs have conquered it all, great ambiance, warm and very friendly staff and outstanding food. Side note, visit the fresh produce building on site, you won't be sorry! read more

Pretty good food. Out doors only but great surroundings. They have a market as well so you can do some shopping. Again it's all outdoors so go on a nice day. Make reservations read more

We stopped here for lunch today...my wife and I, mom and dad and a friend. I ordered a Coke. The waiter brought me a warm can of Coke with a cup of ice. When I poured it in the cup it immediately melted most of the ice leaving the drink flat. The fish in the sandwich was good but the outside of the bread was very hard. The biggest problem was the cashier who I believe was the owner. When I paid the bill, I only left about half of the customary 15% tip. He tried to shame me into leaving more. After he informed me that there is a customary 15% tip, I told him, "Just take out whatever you'd like for a tip then." He said, "No, you're the boss, you tell me!" I told him that I already told him how much I was going to tip. He said "Ok, here's your receipt and don't ever come back!" That pretty much floored me so I went into defensive mode and told him that I didn't plan to and that he could go f--- himself. By the way, nobody else heard this exchange It was a quiet conversation. I wouldn't eat there again if they paid me. Not that I'm allowed back there anyway. I had heard that he was like this with others as well. read more
