    a view of the kitchen
    Dave O.

    Don't judge a book by its cover is great advice and the adage applies here, this little shanty is not much to look at in fact it's likely many people looking for a great meal just drive by this little gem. Upon entering this establishment it was obvious there were some good things going inside, we grabbed a few stools at the half filled counter being all the tables were filled with customers stuffing their faces. I tried to get a look see at what the diners were having, but not wanting to be a busy body I decided to wait on the menu which arrived with a big o' how ya'll doing and whatcha drinking honey - yep I'm in the place I wanted to be. We got here at the transition from the breakfast menu to the lunch menu although most were enjoying their morning meal. Hey I'm pretty easy I'll flip the page and look at what's for lunch. We scanned the options displayed on the worn handmade menus, mine looked like it had been rolled to swat flies (I'm joking) it was clean - while we are speaking of clean the staff were constantly wiping down everything and the kitchen staff was doing the same. Uhm it was only seconds until I found the fried pork chops although fried pork is always enticing I had to ask my friendly server if they were bone-in and she smiled and said of course they are sugar and they are delicious, my search ended at that moment and I ordered two fried crispy, in my opinion rendered pork fat is irresistible I got fries and Lima Bean, we also ordered a hand formed freshly prepared cheese burger I was okay with sharing although a whole pork chop for a half a burger isn't a good trade in my opinion (fortunately she wasn't interested) so I was somewhat relived - okay the pork chops were heavenly I mean almost my MeMa good she fried hers in lard so it wasn't an even playing field but no doubt these are some stellar chops - the Lima Beans were delicious as well but the portion was too small for my liking next time I'm skipping the fries and doubling up on the beans. The burger I'm told was phenomenal (maybe I should of bartered a little harder) it looked amazing and the amount of pickles made it especially good I'm told. Okay good service, great food, a friendly and an attentive staff and prices that are unheard of in my beach town - yes this is where you want to eat...

    Great home cooking with a cheerful crew. Just like your grandmother cooks it. Breakfast is our favorite, lunch and dinner are good too.

    Crowded, slow service and sub par food. Tables so tight you can eat off your neighbors plate. Not for me!

    The better half and I wanted sandwiches for dinner, before a concert at the Music Hall this past…read moreFriday, and chose this place based upon the positive Yelp reviews. Yelpers came through, yet again! The food we ordered and service were excellent! The better half ordered their Twisted Cuban sandwich and although I had a sandwich already picked out (from their online menu) in my mind, they had a daily special on the board that caught my interest - a prime rib double patty burger w/ cheeses. The chef explained how she prepares the patties and cooks them up - SOLD! I went for it, and so happy I did! It was one of the best burgers I have ever had - BURP! Whatever the seasonings were (I have no doubt she told me, but forgot) were great and the meat was so tender and juicy (not greasy). I've had pleasant dreams about this burger ever since. It came with homemade chips too, which were good. The Twisted Cuban was also enjoyed by the wife. Although we will return when we visit Mount Dora and my goal will be to have one of their delicious looking sandwiches I may have to have that darn burger again if they happen to have it on their specials board! They sell a few prime cuts of meat from a small display case, which is something I would consider if I lived locally. Or, maybe I'll just have to bring a cooler the next time.

    Excellent burger! Only available wed and Friday after 4. Wagyu prime blend, sandwich' was one of…read morethe best we have had, ordered the Butcher and the Burger. Worth the drive from Orlando, wish there were locations all over Florida. 5 stars
