Great food, service, and ambiance!…read more I loved the vibe of the aurora. The restaurant was space and astrology themed with each sever having their astrology sign on their name tag! So cute. I ordered the eggs Benedict. One of my eggs was slightly overcooked, but the other one was nice and runny. My friend ordered a medium steak with her Caesar salad, and it came out well done, but they immediately fired a new steak and quickly brought out the corrected temperature for her. The restaurant has a view of the pool and it's very well lit inside. Nice brunch spot near UCF! Parking was free, but they also had a valet option.

I had heard good things about the eggplant dish from a friend, but I asked if they could substitute chicken for the eggplant at an additional cost. The chef declined the substitution, which was a little surprising, but okay. I ended up trying the eggplant as prepared, and it was actually very good and one of the highlights of the meal. The chowder was also excellent and probably one of my favorite things we tried. Unfortunately, I had a pretty rough experience with the camel empanadas. On my first small bite, the empanada was so incredibly hot that it essentially burst, getting extremely hot oil on and around my lips and burning me. That definitely made the rest of dinner less enjoyable. I'd strongly suggest allowing these to rest a little longer before serving. The biggest disappointment was the gator fried rice. The gator was extremely chewy, and overall the dish lacked flavor. I wouldn't order that one again. We also tried the Super Nova, which was good but very rich. I think it makes much more sense as something for a larger group to share rather than a dessert for one or two people. Overall, 3/5. There were some genuinely good dishes, particularly the chowder and eggplant, and the service was pleasant, but the long wait, empanada incident, and disappointing gator fried rice kept the overall experience from being a standout.

I knew he wouldn't touch the toast so was a little bit bummed about that. The service was fantastic and friendly all around.

Jonny's was our first pick for being close to our home and the comfort of knowing the quality, price and service would be stellar. We arrived there around 11:20 and the place was jumpin'!! We found a seat immediately and were immediately greeted by their menu and taking our order for drinks. After the drinks arrived, Martina was greeting us to take our order. The food arrived quickly for the place being packed, however, the tables were turning over quickly as patrons were leaving after tanking up on their meal. This place never disappoints. Quality, stellar service (yes, I like that word), speedy service and reasonable prices. Coffee and hot water for tea are bottomless and never lets one run dry. I put a few pics with this review ( I remembered to take a few this time!). Bottom line is this is a gem so close to home.

We really have a great experience every time we come. The restaurant itself is a bit eclectic. It could definitely use some sprucing up and it could use some focus. Is this a bar?

However the meal will be great and they have other Caribbean and Hispanic options than just pure Cuban food.

I asked for a biscuit. Eggs were fine. The home fries and the biscuit tasted the same. Obviously the grill imparted a "flavor" to the home fries and biscuit as both were grilled. This flavor was not good. The crispy bacon was ok. Had black marks on it that I could not u sweat and from cooking. My son's two eggs, half order of biscuits and gravy with bacon he enjoyed. As we were paying I noticed I had ordered the special 7-9 daily for 8.99 but I was charged 10.50. When I asked she said I gave you extra bacon I thought you would want that. At that point I scratched Sally's off the list and will never return. Kinda shady.

Lots of seating here and most days you'll probably find it full of college students as it's just down the street from UCF. I tried a barista special coffee and it was decent.

There's also a drive thru which can be a convenient option. Plenty of seating in here to be able to sit and stay for awhile.

I believe I got him an iced coffee with oat milk and butterscotch flavoring and a double shot of espresso; my coffee was only $5.25!! Normally if I got that same order at Starbucks it would've been like 10 bucks. Before he has a sip of his coffee, I will actually be tasting it because I've never had Foxtail coffee before. I really like the spot in particular they have a drive-through so if I'm in my car or making errands, I can just do the drive-through. The person doing the drive-through and making the coffee is very quick. I've only been waiting about 3 to 5 minutes so far. Just took a sip of my friends coffee that I got him and it tastes amazing. I will definitely be stopping at Foxtail more often. !!

My friend treated me to a birthday lunch this week and when we got to the table, the staff had a birthday card waiting for me! How thoughtful! We came during happy hour and decided to try a few small plates and drinks. The Egg Rolls are a must! They were packed with flavor and a variety of ingredients. My friend especially loved the shrimp. We also tried the quesadillas and sliders on the happy hour menu. Both dishes tasted incredible! Sadly, though the happy hour has half priced apps, the plates are also half sized. They were absolutely delicious, but the dishes felt overpriced for the portion size. As for drinks, I tried the sangria flight. I wasn't expecting such a full portion size and was pleasantly surprised with that. I did, however, only find 2 of the 4 drinks to be especially tasty. I wouldn't order that flight again, but would be interested in their wine offerings. I loved the low lighting in the space as it set such a calm and laid back mood. Overall, I enjoyed my experience and especially loved the food! Totally recommend.

This can be a nice venue to get together with friends and family. It's a low light calming atmosphere. Our waiter seemed frustrated maybe just having a bad day. Not as attentive as other staff in my past experiences. The parking can be limited near the restaurant. If you don't mind walking a little, there is plenty of parking in the shopping plaza area.
