    The Villages, Sumpter Landing, Johnny Rockets really delivered... if the goal was disappointment. Now I understand why the place wasn't busy--apparently word has gotten out. The "malts" were more like samples, and no extra in the metal container like you'd expect--guess that's a premium feature now. The burgers were small and somehow managed to be both bland and forgettable. I ordered onion rings for $2.99 and received two--yes, two--rings, each about the size of a 50-cent piece. Impressive portion control. To top it off, two burgers weren't even made as ordered. Attention to detail clearly isn't on the menu. All in all, $130 for seven people felt less like dinner and more like a charitable donation. Won't be back.

    Was in the Villages for just a bit; my gf wasn't sure if it was somewhere she'd like to move to. We stopped in Spanish Springs to have lunch, didn't do much research, wish we did, it was terrible but wasn't great. I had a Patty Melt & my gf had a chicken wrap of some kind & fries. All was just ok, they weren't busy at 330pm. Service was great.

    Overall I have a decent experience here. I hadn't been to a Johnny Rockets in a long time, so I wasn't totally sure what to expect. The inside was fun and nostalgic, but we sat outside on the nice patio that overlooked the square. I definitely recommend sitting on the patio vs. inside if you can. Our sever was very friendly and nice and even offered to have us move to another table because the one we were currently at was in a very windy spot. That was really nice and thoughtful! I got the Strawberry Oreo Crumble milkshake, which was very flavorful and enjoyable. For food I got the Smokehouse burger with sweet potato fries. The burger was decent, but unfortunately the BBQ ranch lacked good flavor. The sweet potato fries were limp and soggy and had no seasoning.

    I took our 17 year old here and we loved our burgers. Darn, my blue cheese blt burger was awesome! The fries were good and hot. I also must add my unsweetened ice tea was the best! It was strong and had flavor. I treated him to a cookie jar milkshake and he finished that and his double bacon cheeseburger. Ah, to be 17 and eat whatever

    The food here is ok. Nothing super special but it does taste great. The location next to the concerts in the square is a huge plus here. The service was great here! Our waitress was so kind and did her best to really meet our needs. The place was clean, quiet and well organized.

    Original burger very delicious

    Our first time here the place needs a little fixing and cleaning our waitress was nice the burgers and shakes were delicious and food came out fast and hot

We took a sunny drive over to celebrate a major birthday for my darling spouse.....and were FLOORED by the experience and the food...."THE FOOD"! Oh my Goodness!!! More on this shortly..... This Virginia girl (A Florida girl since the 1980's) fell in love with the eclectic decor and table settings that looked like my Momma and Grandma's heirlooms. Vintage prints and paintings. Red vintage bloomers with lace on the hook on the back of the door of the "Ladies' Retiring Room and Necessary" [my terms, to be fair...] Photographs of young belles and their children who arrived later. A decent interval later!!! NOW, the food. Hot, homemade cornbread to the table, and a peach ice tea that is like no other I have enjoyed ANYWHERE in the south. Hubby chose the Texan Chicken Fried steak, with smashed potatoes and greens, and I picked my favorite southern dish (one that I cannot make at home without ruining ~SHRIMP & GRITS!) and it was beyond description. Shrimp almost the size of quail, with perfect spices and texture. Creamy grits with cheese and a few bell peppers for a variety. I never DREAMED of using salt or pepper.....it would have been an affront the the dish itself, My husband's smile told me he loved HIS chosen dish down....that, and all but licking his plate! We have the decadent looking slices of cake her to share later with coffee, but there was no chance we would skip trying them.....but also no chance we could eat them immediately after lunch without exploding! Service was prompt without hovering, and we will be returning either for MY birthday or if we have friends come to visit. HIGHLY AND TOTALLY RECOMMEND FOR A SPECIAL MEAL. The quality makes the prices perfectly acceptable!!

I came in because I saw they had a pot pie special, which is not something they normally have and that's what drew me in. When I got there they didn't have it anymore, but they were so accommodating and offered to make me something custom instead. Not just a small substitution either. A full custom hash that is not even on their regular menu. They made me a custom corned beef hash with home fries, plus hashbrowns smothered in melty cheddar and jalapeños, with a side of scrambled eggs. And listen, the eggs were so good I honestly do not know that I have had eggs that good anywhere. Fluffy, perfectly cooked, and just flat out delicious. The hash itself was amazing, hearty, and full of flavor, and the potatoes were cooked exactly right. And the hashbrowns? Better than Waffle House, and if you know, you know. Crispy where you want them, not greasy, and just the right texture. Service deserves its own mention too. I came in a little late in the day, close to when they were closing, and they were just as kind and welcoming as if I had come earlier. My waiter was friendly, attentive, checked on me at the right times without hovering, and made the whole experience even better. Even though I missed the pot pie special, I left happy, full, and already planning my next visit. Darrel's Diner is a gem.

    I pass by this place all the time when I'm in the villages, yesterday was my first time coming in…read more The environment is very nice and inviting, it's super cold inside so bring a jacket or a blanket. I didn't know that you have to sign in with your name and how many people are in your party. There's not a lot of seating so space is limited. It took about 20 minutes before we got our seat. The menu sounds really good. The portions are huge, and pretty price for the food. I was surprised. I ordered the cherry pancakes because it said it came with a cherry glaze so I thought it would be like a powdered sugar and milk glaze no the fake cherries and jam you buy in a can. I wasn't a fan of the cherries but the pancakes were actually very delicious I enjoyed the regular pancakes. The potatoes were not crispy and flavorless, I wasn't the biggest fan of the eggs. My boyfriend enjoyed his gravy and biscuits a lot I tried it and I thought it was a little undercooked but he liked it a lot. The coffee was good nice service. For this food we sort $39 before tip, and I was waiting for like 15 minutes before I realized you have to take your receipt to the cashier however I didn't get a recipe so I just walked up there and my waitress lost out receipt. Overall I give it a 3/5 maybe you will like the food. Try it out!
