Parking: 3.8/5 it's East End Market, parking is selective and few during peak times, the weekend and Fridays are always pretty busy. That being said, any other times you go parking might not be a problem. Service: 5/5 Hinckley ls one of the longest serving businesses in east end market, with that comes service knowledge, and the entire team knocks it out of the park Price: 4.5/5 not much else can be said here, do you like quality ingredients? Do you like great food? That comes at a naturally higher price. Where I think their great value is at, is inside the "deli case" if they have their chicken salad there it's worth picking up. Ambiance: 4.2/5 the store front is in a prime location with an extremely open plan, it's got a great flow to the front deli case and up towards a very legible menu screen, their tinned fish wall on the left is beautifully organized then flowing down is their wine selection. The only thing holding back hinckleys is east end market itself, this is due to the sometimes loud and unmatched music being played. * recommendation * oxtail and Egg is absolutely delicious.

Stopped in for a late lunch based on the recommendations of fellow Yelpers. I used to go to this…read morelocation when it was Hungry Pants. I did not realize it was also a restaurant with sit down service. I thought it was just a butcher shop. The inside is simple, but also nicely decorated. Seating can be at the bar or at tables. You walk in and order from the menu on the screen above the cashier. You are given a table number and your food is brought to you once it is ready. The prices are a little on the high side, but you are getting top grade Wagyu so it is well worth it. Claire was the young lady behind the counter who took our order and brought our food to the table. She couldn't have been nicer and she explained what her favorites were on the menu and answered all our questions. I ordered the Wagyu Beef Tapa and my friends each ordered the Wagyu Burrito. We added an order of fries to the menu based on recommendations from previous Yelp reviews. We all agreed these were some of the best tasting fries we've had in a long time. Along with water, two of us ordered glasses of the Pinot to enjoy with our lunch selections. Our items were quickly brought to our table. However, the orders all did not come at once. My tapa plate was provided at least five minutes before my friends got their burritos. Not sure if this is their normal serving process, but keep this in mind if a large group comes for lunch or dinner. We all enjoyed the delicious Wagyu beef in our selections. The tapa came with garlic fried rice, atchara and a fried egg on top. The amount of Wagyu was maybe about 3 ounces, but the entire plate was filling for lunch. Both of my friends enjoyed their burritos, which included Wagyu, black beans, rice, cilantro creme, cotija cheese, pickled red onions, and fried green tomatoes. They also liked the toasted soft tortilla that's surrounded the burrito. All in all, a nice lunch at this cute restaurant/butcher shop. Various types of Wagyu meat and other supplies can be purchased also.

We were greeted right away and ordered assistance if we needed it. It has a rustic wood and metal feel inside and there are specialty seasonings, told, and accessories around the perimeter to look at. On the left side are a couple of fridges that showcase their cuts of varying meats and cheeses. They offer premium grade cuts and clearly mark each hand packed selection. Over to the right of the entry is a case of more 'grab and go' type offerings, like plates of jamon that are pre cut for snacking or charcuterie plating. There are also more seasonings and sauces on this side. At the back is a service desk to talk to staff, make speciality orders, or finalize purchases. You can also grab a brochure to read more about how they grade their meats. Overall: A Solid butcher stop for specialty items that offer a high grade selection!

First up were the breakfast tacos, loaded with chopped brisket, scrambled eggs, cheddar cheese and salsa on housemade beef fat tortillas. These are a must. Those tortillas paired with their smoky brisket made them some seriously good breakfast tacos. Next came the biscuits topped with rich and creamy gravy, followed by the Filipino breakfast sandwich layered with longanisa sausage, a fried egg, crispy hash brown, American cheese and sambal mayo on a potato roll. Savory, spicy and messy in all the right ways. Of course, we couldn't leave without finishing with one of their giant cinnamon rolls covered in icing. It was the perfect sweet ending to a great brunch.

They did still have the giant beef rib when we arrived. But at $36 a rib, we opted to go with the pork ribs instead. Each of the general protein servings is a half pound. So we ended up with a portion of the pork rib, the pulled pork and the pork belly. The pork ribs was really good, although my husband didn't like the glaze that they had on the rib but the meat was delicious. The pulled pork was very good not fatty, which is fantastic. The pork belly is cut into giant chunks. It is very tasty. It does have a decent amount of fat on it. This location also has a variety of sides to choose from. We opted for the collard greens and the mac & cheese. The collard greens were good. They could've been cooked a little bit longer. As some of the pieces were a bit crunchy. The mac & cheese was good although the cheese sauce felt a little gooey and we attributed to that they may use a rue to make their sauce. Overall - we enjoyed the food and would check them out again.

Ended up being a good decision. A definite standout was our server CD. We really enjoyed chatting with him. He went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and genuinely cared for. We went with the $29.99 option for everyone in our group. The Bulgogi Pork was our favorite meat. Such a tasty marinade! You will definitely leave stuffed. Large space inside. The Banchan bar could use some better labels, but that didn't stop me from loading up my plate. Enjoyed the Japchae and appreciated the nearby scissors which came in handy. The main challenge for this place is it's nearby competitors, Izziban and Korea House. Wish K-BBQ had a more unique name, but regardless they can hold their own. My experience was pleasing from beginning to end.

The restaurant seating is omakase style, the menu has 3 options featuring Japanese Wagyu, tuna and curry menchi katsu with U.S. beef. Each order is presented beautifully in a set with 2 small sides, a bowl of barley rice, 2 different dipping sauces and a cabbage salad that you pair with goma (sesame) dressing. You also get a hot bowl of suimono soup towards the end of your meal. Unfortunately it was a bit to salty for my preference. To cook the wagyu, you place the pieces onto the hot stone butane grill in front of you and sear to your preference. There's no smoke and the market is open air enough you don't smell like BBQ. The meat is so tender and buttery. It was delightful. The potato salad was delicious and the pickled cabbage complimented the richness of the wagyu very well. My husband had the surf and turf. A nice big portion good enough to share. The tuna was fresh and breaded well but I preferred the wagyu for sure. Will definitely be back again.

Each restaurant and shop feels like its own little world, and you can sense it the moment you step inside. That's exactly what Gyukatsu Rose offers. Although the restaurant is located in the middle of the market hallway, believe me--you'll feel transported to Japan and completely forget you're in Florida. Their service will make you feel like royalty. One of the most interactive and delicious dishes is the Single Wagyu Set. You get to cook the Wagyu to your desired temperature right at your table on their tabletop grill. One dish that absolutely blew my taste buds away was the Curry Menchi Katsu. The Japanese curry flavors were incredibly well-balanced, and the katsu was perfectly tender. Every dish comes with an assortment of side dishes. My favorite was the rice topped with yakiniku sauce and egg yolk, simple but yet incredibly flavorful. To finish it all off, be sure to order the Matcha Ice Cream Brûlée. It's the perfect ending to an unforgettable meal.

Stasio's is absolutely worth checking out if you're looking for an authentic Italian deli…read moreexperience. From the moment we walked in, the staff at the front entrance was incredibly welcoming and even took the time to show us around the market. The ambience feels like a neighborhood Italian shop, with shelves lined with imported products from Italy that make it fun to browse while you wait. It's a small, casual space that feels authentic rather than overly polished. We ordered the Italian sub with sun-dried tomatoes instead of the standard toppings, along with the chicken cutlet sandwich with vodka sauce. Both sandwiches had excellent flavor and tasted fresh. The sun-dried tomatoes were a great addition to the Italian, although I do think it could have used a little more meat. Considering the price, I expected it to be a bit more generously filled. The chicken cutlet sandwich was delicious overall, but the cutlet itself was a little dry. I asked for extra sauce, and initially the employee seemed reluctant and tried to charge me for it. After I showed him how dry the sandwich was, he gave me the sauce, which made a huge difference and brought the sandwich together. That interaction was really my only service-related critique. Overall, the quality of the ingredients is excellent, the sandwiches are satisfying, and the market has a unique charm you don't find at most sandwich shops. While it's definitely on the pricier side, the authentic atmosphere and quality make it a place I'd happily come back to. I'd love to work my way through more of the menu on future visits.

After a 10 mile hike at Orlando Wetlands, I was ready to eat. I'd read about Stasio's on some…read more"best sandwich" lists and decided it was time to try it out. I will be going there after every Saturday hike forever more. The lists did not lie. Stasio's delivered the best sandwiches I have had in Florida. Walking in, I must have looked confused because I heard a knowing voice ask if it was my first time in. I admitted that it was and a delightful employee walked over to me to show me around. Stasio's has a deli counter, a coffee counter, and several shelves with Italian foods. I quickly learned that sandwiches are ordered at the deli and brought out to the waiting area when ready. Coffee is ordered at a cash register and the coffee is poured or prepared after purchase. Any prepared foods, together with sandwiches and fresh bread, are paid for at one of two registers. Despite the crowd -- and it was crazy busy -- everything was remarkably efficient and the staff showed no sign of stress. I ordered an Egg and Pepper sandwich and a Caprese Sandwich. Bread is made onsite and it was as fresh and delicious. (I ordered a loaf of Semolina/Italian bread and brought it home, where it was eaten within a few hours. At $4.99 for a loaf, it is an amazing value and a great treat!). Both the egg and pepper and the Caprese were prepared simply and to perfection. Fresh ingredients pack a lot of flavor and my mouth is watering just thinking about it. Amazingly, I don't think Stasio's adds any fats to their sandwiches -- The egg in the egg and pepper, and the mozzarella in the Caprese do all the work. There are seats at a bar along the front window and a few tables outside, but I chose to eat in my car. At a peak time (like Noon on a Saturday), there was not a lot of available seating but it did seem that chairs opened up fairly quickly. After a 10 mile hike, I just did not think it was fair to anyone who might be seated next to me to have to sit next to me! No photos but others have shared enough that you can picture the experience!

The front staff remembers us every time we go. I am obsessed with the herbal and spicy hot pot, so I usually have them make it 50/50 mix. The vegetables are fresh and there's a wide selection of meats and seafood. I also like to make my dipping sauce with the garlic sauce blend. My favorite is the Galbi which is seasoned well. Both savory and sweet. Another obsession is the asago dessert which is a tapioca pearls, black beans, fruits and jelly in a sweet coconut milk. I really enjoy going here since it's a good alternative to other AYCE in the surrounding vicinity because of the better quality. I want to see this place get more traffic because it's hidden in the old JoAnn's shopping center next to Aldi. There's plenty of parking in the commercial lot.

Friends, this place is proof that compromise can be beautiful. Sweet meets spicy meets (meats?) savory.

Parking wasn't an issue either. As I walked in, I was greeted by who seemed to be the owner and a young woman. Very nice, lovely staff. Everyone was so sweet. My only issue was that they didn't have a good portion of their menu ready and it's mostly because they didn't have the gravy for their dishes. The ones we wanted came with gravy and the staff let us know they were behind on making it. So we pivoted and tried their prime rib smash burger but unfortunately that felt a little disappointing. For the price that it was, you'd think that you'd get a decently portioned burger or some sides with it but it was super tiny. And the bun felt like grocery bread, the type you can get for a home bbq. It was still delicious but rather disappointing at the same time. We ended up having to order a third dish just to feel satisfied and at least it was very good. The bowls are worth it, maybe not the burger but the bowls for sure! I also snagged up a donut and truthfully that is one of the best donuts I've ever had. Another downside to this spot and why I didn't give it a 4 star is because how slow the service was. We watched a whole family get up and leave because it was taking so long, I actually felt bad for the staff and owner. The place has great tasting food, just needs a little shaping up. Maybe someone who can run the kitchen as a head chef. Overall, I still recommend the place but just know that you'll be waiting a while and some things may not be available.
