    I finally got my Cuban today! After craving one all day and being dissapointed with not being able to find the Kubano truck, I finally got my fix. Food truck Thursdays at Lake Ella are a must! Not only was the food good but the music was awesome! I got to eat some yummy Cuban food and watch my two little girls dance around and have fun. What a great way to end my Thursday night. Back to the food. It was flavorful and moist. I would def. Recommend this truck for anyone with a Cuban craving. The portion was even a bit much for me lol I could have gotten away with eating half! Will be trying other dishes from this truck and reviewing.

    One of my favorite food trucks in Tallahassee. The chicken mofungo is amazing, and unlike anything else I've seen from a food truck.

    Cute little country restaurant between Bainbridge and Tallahassee. Clean, comfortable place with 8…read moretables and friendly waitresses. The food was all good. We ordered fried mushrooms that came out fast. They were hot and juicy. Fried shrimp was perfect. Burgers and chicken sandwich were also good. Cheese grits and sweet potato fries hit the mark.

    This is a little house off the side of a road near a railroad track. I have been here several times…read moreand surprised I haven't written a review. I always start by ordering an appetizer crab claws. They are usually big and you get about 16 of them. They were a little smaller today but still delicious. I do like their tartar sauce and cocktail sauce, which is on the table. The tartar sauce taste just like I would make it and the cocktail sauce has a little less horseradish than I would put in, but it's still very flavorful. The fried shrimp is excellent. My friend likes the sweet potato fries and I like their slaw. The crabcakes Were crabby and not too much bread. Today I had the fish sandwich which was a catfish fillet on a hoagie roll. It came with lettuce, tomato, onions, and dill pickle. The dill pickles were great and I don't like pickles. The catfish was perfectly tender, coated in cornmeal and fried. I always enjoy the trip up to Attapulgus and my service is always spot on. Oh the cheese grits were good. The only thing that I dislike is that the food comes on disposable plates and Styrofoam cups. But at least that way they don't have dishes to do. I'll come back again.

    First of all, this place feels like a NYC-style eatery in the best way. The artwork is beautiful,…read moreand the blue-green color scheme makes it a really nice space to sit and enjoy your food. They also offer a 5% discount if you pay in cash, which is a nice bonus. I got "The Hummer," which has turkey, feta, black olives, tomato, onion, and lettuce on rye-pumpernickel with mayonnaise and house dressing. It was so good. The bread was SUPER YUMMY and looked beautiful too (if you care about aesthetics). All the flavors blended together really well without anything overpowering, and it had this refreshing quality to it that made it stand out. I would definitely order it again. My partner got "The Sauté," which is turkey with Parmesan, Cheddar, Swiss, and a mix of sautéed onions, peppers, and mushrooms on a warm poppy seed roll, plus lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, and house dressing. The roll was good and it was very flavorful but is was the combination of the veggies, turkey, and melted cheeses gave it a lot of depth. Everything tasted fresh. I got a combo with Mrs. Vickie's salt and vinegar chips, which is always a good sign. And the sweet tea--wow. It wasn't overly sweet, but what really stood out was the flavor. You could actually taste the tea, with slightly minty, earthy notes that made it feel really well done. That's rare. Overall, for what this place is, it deserves all stars. The staff was kind and helpful, the food came out quickly, and everything we had was genuinely good. P.S. There is no photos because I forgot due to it being so da** good!

    After moving back to Tallahassee, one of our first lunches was Hopkin's Eatery…read more I ordered a Cobb salad so large, we split it and still had leftovers. Whether you are craving a fresh salad, a savory sandwich, or s comforting bowl of soup, Hopkins has what you want and at a great price, and you can be sure it will be served with outstanding service and conversation. We dined at the Market Street location which is quaint and convenient to all of your NE Tallahassee shopping. It's truly a landmark in Tallahassee. Their fresh brewed tea is the perfect top off to your meal, and don't forget to order a slice of cake too.
