The paddlewheel boat on Lake Dora is comfortable, the upper deck has a great view, and the staff made it feel personal without hovering. They even put a "Welcome Kerr Aboard" tag on our charcuterie board, which was a fun surprise. We sat outside with a bottle of wine, watched the water, and didn't have to rush anything. The weather looked stormy, but the cruise still went and the covered deck kept it easy. Nice mix of indoor lounge seating and open air if you want both. Easy to book, friendly crew, and a memorable way to spend an anniversary. We'd do it again.

From the second, I got on the boat until I got off the boat two hours later I was beyond well taken care of. The live music was engaging and the perfect compliment to the boat ride itself and just being on the water. The charcuterie board was yummy and completely worth the $25 it cost. I would 100% recommend doing the sunset cruise to anyone looking to enjoy their time Tavares on the lake.

Restaurant staff unfamiliar with what was offered, wasn't sure what a sparkling water was? Steak ordered med rare and presented well done.

Pro shop staff did not know how to give cash change back so I had to use a CC. Requested high floor got a ground room facing a yard with a broken kids play tower.

Even if you're not vegetarian, the way they prepare their vegetables makes them stand out--they're full of flavor and anything but an afterthought. The drinks are fantastic as well. The bartenders really know what they're doing, and the cocktails are creative, beautifully made, and delicious. Add in the beautiful atmosphere, excellent service, and attention to detail, and you have a restaurant that really delivers a memorable experience. 1921 is definitely one of the best dining spots in Mount Dora. Highly recommended!

When we entered, Chelsea recognized him and he said it was good to not just be back, but to recognize someone on the staff. Nice to say hi. We had a different bartender that I didn't catch his name, but very friendly. We were there for the happy hour menu, so ordered a couple drinks to cheers to a weekend in Florida to see his momma and family. I've never had a Wagyu burger, so decided to treat myself while he ordered duck wings. The burger was fantastic, and stunned at the amount of fries provided! So many, but they were delicious. He enjoyed his duck wings. This place is charming, and fairly spacious for a bar. Additionally, the bathrooms were clean and easy to use. Overall, a great experience and I'm sure the next time we come to Mount Dora, we will check this place out!

Good selection of beers on tap. And good prices too. Since it was the day after St Pattys day, green beer was only $2. A deal. Amongst our tables we ordered a variety of things: mozzarella sticks, pretzels, fish tacos, buffalo tacos, chicken and salad, and their Baileys cheesecake. Everyone was pleased. My fish tacos were surprisingly good, real tortillas and crispy fish. The side is chips. I would have preferred fries or rice, but I figure chips allow for ease and speed when preparing the meals. And the dessert was delicious. Great taste, creamy texture. Would def order it again, and I rarely order dessert. The bartender / server was super nice. He did a great job. Would I return- yes!

Tiffany was courteous, professional and engaging throughout our visit while serving both our table of eight and the customers sitting outside on the patio area while never loosing her smile.
