This is a great location in an old federal building. Nice decor for this Smiths American Tavern…read more The bartender met us at the door, due to it being the middle of the day, and business being a bit slower, and we opted to sit at the bar. He was very social and answered all our questions and socialized about personal life as well. We ordered the Cuban eggrolls, and they were quite good but had smaller cubes of ham as opposed to pictures showing slices in some older pictures posted to this establishment. The drinks were spot-on. Although I may sound disappointed, I'm looking forward to trying more on the menu that they have to offer. I plan to return to try more. Recommended!

Smith's American Tavern is in historic downtown Lakeland and located in a converted post office…read more It is spacious inside, has a nice size bar area and plenty of TVs to watch sporting events. The atmosphere is dive bar friendly and there are so many cool niche areas for photos. Really loved the raised unfinished ceiling and the naked white brick wall which covered the side wall of the tavern. When you enter there is a hostess to great you. And our server almost appeared immediately. She explained the menu to us and the specials. What a great first impression. Unfortunately, there was a key piece of info we missed. There is a full bar, draft beer options and a decent wine selection. I ordered a draft beer and a flight of Mimosas. The beer was good, the mimosa flight not so much. Oh, and they have brunch specials on Saturday and Sunday, including unlimited mimosas at a 2 hour limit. For food, ordered the classic breakfast plate and a breakfast burger. Food was pretty good, but the burger was from a frozen patty, so not the best. Unfortunately they have some policy where they charge an extra $1 for the eggs. It is posted in the front, but nowhere on the menu. Suffice to say that experience left a bad taste in my mouth. Pun intended. They did remove the $1 but it took more effort that I would have liked and unfortunately the review and the server's tip suffered as a result.

First visit here and Wow! We ordered two hot dog baskets with fries ($9.99 each) and a Taco's…read more($10.99) + fries and drink $4.99. We also ordered cheese curds ($8.99). The hot dogs are a quality thick beef hot dog and they are tasty. They have many toppings except chili. The fries are thick Krinkle cut and prepared just right today, crisp on the outside and soft inside. The Tacos were ground beef and topped with lettuce and tomato. We added sour cream and salsa fir an additional charge. The cheese curds have to be the best we've had anywhere. They aren't salty at all like some places and they have a nice Italian seasoning in them. The menu is pretty extensive so there are a lot of choices. The dining room is long and narrow with mostly tables of two, just a couple of tables fir 4 then they have counter or bar seating. Staff is friendly and helpful. We will most definitely be back and we can recommend this fir lunch or dinner.

Great wings and seafood! Odd combo but very good. Stopped…read morehere Saturday after the market. So many different choices and combos to choose from. I got wings and fish combo. Rest of fam had fish, shrimp, and wings. Overall we were super happy with our choices. The wings were super. Jumbo size and freshly made. One of the great things is the variety of sauces. So many places have the same choices. Bedrock has many different sauces to choose. I had the aloha blackened. Awesome sauce!! Sweet spicy with a touch of Hawaii. The wings were awesome. The fish was also very good. I would get again. My kids had fish and shrimp and were very satisfied. We also got more wings with Spicy honey. That sauce was also very good and unique. One of my favs for wings. When I am back in Lakeland this is where I will go for wings. Just wish I remembered to take pics for you.

Solid pizza and good salads. I've only ever had take out from MJ's. Staff is always very friendly…read moreand quick. Pizzas are large and good amounts of cheese and toppings. Salads are fresh and big- and they give plenty of dressing (but that still doesn't keep me from asking for more ;) If you are in this area, don't overlook MJ's for a good pizza- support a local business with better quality ingredients and did I mention it's cheaper than papa John's?

It's the closest thing to NY style pizza! The cheese is gooey and the sauce is saucy! I wish the…read moreundercarriage/dough could hold up to the cheese and sauce, not complaining, because they check off most on my pizza checklist. Their specialty pizzas seems to have high quality ingredients. The prices are a little on the higher side but it's worth it. The shop feels like a deli style as it shares space with the corner store. The associates there are pleasant and down to earth providing thorough service.

I heard mixed reviews of this place, but decided to give it a try, and boy was I glad I did!…read moreThis is a take out place. Ambiance isn't much, basic. Service is quick and my to-go order was filled accurately. I love that Wingstop has options like all flats or drums, and extra cooking time (for that perfect crisp!) I LOVE the hot honey and lemon pepper dry rub- because I've found that if you do a dry rub, and get your choice of sauce on the side, by the time you get home, your wings and still nice and crispy- not soggy! Besides, who doesn't like to dip anyway?! Their seasoned fries are amazing! Portions are generous and I have nothing but good things to say about my local Wingstop. I can't wait to go back!

We sat outside and it was really strong. ( even when there's a sign at the door that says " no smoking, no vaping") -They took forever to come to our table and when they did...we asked for a menu and were told they didn't have one. We asked for entrees They also didn't have any sna or sides, just beer and liquor, the bartender said " you can go to Hibachi Express or Subway and get the snacks from there" Needless to say, we never going back there.

The restaurant is in an older building so it has a really rustic authentic feeling that sets it apart from other places. Our server Chandler was quick and personable. He was really great with interacting with the table and made the experience even better. Now for the food.... this is definitely in my top 3 BBQ places. The portions were huge and I felt like the prices were reasonable. I tried all of their sauces and they were all delectable and diverse so everyone can find something that they like. You definitely want to come here with an appetite because everything is just so good and comforting. You will leave satisfied.
