I have been wanting to try this spot for a while after hearing such great things. We stopped by for…read morelunch and had the tastiest sandwich and flatbread. The quality of meat and cheese and subtle sweetness of the balsamic glaze mixed with the fresh arugula was out of this world. And the texture of the fresh bread was perfection. The super thin pepperoni on the flatbread were so delicious and the sauce had a subtle sweetness flavor. There were tons of options I can't wait to try again and a bakery case full of treats. They serve breakfast too which looked amazing. We especially enjoyed the vibes on the outdoor sidewalk seating with Italian music playing as we enjoyed our food. Because this spot is in the historic downtown area of Clermont, street parking is your best bet and there is a public parking lot a short walk away. Will be coming back again and again to this great business.

Excellent Italian deli in downtown Clermont. For my first meal here I ended up sharing a turkey…read moresandwich with my brother who does not eat pork where because of this the sandwich was tad on the basic side for my taste. Having said that, the sandwich was still well-made and quite tasty where all the ingredients were fresh and the bread was still warm and appeared to be fresh baked in house. Nice! If I was eating this sandwich by myself, I would've asked for bacon on the sandwich, which definitely would have made it a top shelf turkey sandwich in my opinion. Being an Italian deli, the majority of the sandwiches do use pork of one kind or another where they looked and sounded quite tasty with a number of house specialties on the menu. The next time I am here, I will definitely make sure to order one of their specialty sandwiches to give this business a much fairer assessment and probably the fifth star that I so wanted to give.

Good food, but the in person service is a major letdown. I really wanted to love this place. We…read moreordered their food to my job all the time and always thought it was pretty decent, so I was excited to finally visit in person on June 7th around 5 PM. Unfortunately, the experience did not match the food. When we arrived, there were only two other guests being helped at the counter and the dining room was empty. No one greeted us when we walked in. No one offered us a menu. We actually sat down to see if anyone would eventually acknowledge us, but after waiting in silence for 20 min we finally had to get up and ask what they even had available to eat. Because of the vibe and the fact that they close at 7 PM, we felt uncomfortable ordering a full meal and just got some alcapurrias and pastelillos. To make matters worse, the girl with the red hair at the front counter was especially rude and made us feel like an inconvenience. We don't have many options for authentic Puerto Rican cuisine that actually reminds us of home in the area, so I genuinely hope management sees this and addresses the front of house service. Good food only goes so far when the customer service makes you feel unwelcome. A 3 because the food is genuinely good other wise a 1.

Wow. we were on…read moreour way down the highway and got hungry. We pulled into the butcher block and looked at the menu and with all the other good dishes butcher block had shrimp and grits. In addition to being my favorite dish, whenever I see shrimp and grits on the menu, I always sample it because each restaurant has an idea of what the very best shrimp and grits are. The butcher block southern style shrimp, and grits were quite a bit different than all of the other authentic, southern shrimp and grits. I tasted. delicious, terrific, wonderful with a little bit of spice and a little bit of buzz just the way I would make it if I knew how to make shrimp and grits. Joan had cranberry chicken salad. It tasted fresh homemade was an ample dish and served over a nice bed of lettuce salad. I actually got a taste of it and it was really good. I hope we can find a place again on our way home. That I say I enjoyed the shrimp and grits?

Looking for great brunch/breakfast in Clermont? This is THE place. We put our names in during the…read morefarmers market on Sunday and waited about 20 minutes. This cute spot has charm, great service, and even better food. The crab and shrimp Benedict was incredible. They had a croissant instead of English muffins and it was a game changer. The hollandaise sauce had a citrus note that brightened the richness of the croissant and perfectly cooked shrimp and crab. We also tried the French toast which was good but not as impressive. They grill their muffins which sounds crazy but they were so tasty. The lightly crisp butter edges with the banana nut muffin was outstanding. The iced coffees were also super tasty, not too sweet. Can't wait to try more here!

I'll keep going back, I feel like this is my place. They have good vegan/plant-based options. There is on-street parking in front of the restaurant. However, the spots fill up quickly, you might have to take a three minute walk... it's worth it.

First time visit to Black Bear Kitchen. I initially went for the baked potato, but unfortunately…read morethey were out for the day. So I made a pivot and got the street tacos. The tacos did not disappoint. The meat was seasoned and cooked nicely. The tacos were flavorful. My husband had the hamburger and he said that it was good. You can get two sides and a drink for an additional $6.50. Which makes it perfect for sharing. We picked potato salad and collard greens. The collards would be better if cooked with some smokey meat and pepper vinegar. We had excellent service from start to finish. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating. Two different rooms you can sit in. The only downside was the noise level. Between the volume of the music and the people playing connect four outside it was a little loud. I will keep Black Bear Kitchen on my list to visit again.

It was good and had good flavor. The brisket actually tasted like roast beef instead of smoked brisket... We were just expecting more of a brisket taste instead. We both loved the other ingredients on the tacos and thought it was an excellent choice. We thought about eating outside but while I was sitting there waiting for my wife to come back out with our lunch I noticed the music coming from the Black Bear was competing with the Tap Room business outdoor seating area speakers as well. Both were loud and playing two different songs and different genres! Very annoying and not enjoyable for outside seating. At least be playing the same music! We decided to eat inside instead. Restaurant was clean.
