On our last visit, the best meals we had were at Mannys and Chilis.

The most disappointing meal we had was at the Olive Garden, very rushed service and the food was very ordinary, it was much better in previous years.

Looking forward to a nice steak at Mannys later this year.

Mannys Chophouse & Carrabbas Italian Grill for us at the moment. Used to be The Olive Garden but we tend to change our minds each visit we make to Florida YUM YUM.

Will be there again in 20 days to sample the food at these fab diners.

Best: The Butchers Shop/Waffe House
Worst: Homers Pigout BBQ (Cannot remember the specific name) - We expected it to be grubby and this is why we thought we would try it; something really grubby/greasy and a traditional American pigout grease-fest. However, it was nothing compared to what was actually there...flies in chicken, paper; cups, plates, plastic forks. Very horrible.

I used to go there for the pulled pork and it was delicious. Granted rough as you like and you were lucky if the waitresses had teeth and paper cups etc but the BBQ was really tasty.

Best Olive Garden in Melborne - lovely meal and such good service.

Worst Applebee's Lakeland - terrible service and couldn't cater for vegetarians

Applebees on the 27 is not on my favourites list either. 3 times I have been there (with friends) and they haven't impressed me with their food yet. Service is fine though.

We went to MORRISONS it opened about the 14 FEBUARY in the old SIZZERS on the 192 just like a school canteen and food was not good at all, It is the worst meal we have had in FLORIDA ,Cheap but I would rather pay more and go to OLIVE GARDEN or LONGHORN on the 192 the steaks are very good and worth the price .

I think it got taken over before it closed - that's when we went we had heard that the pulled pork was good but never managed to try it.

We had bad service when we went didn't get what we ordered and the waitress more or less threw the bill at us George complained but they more or less laughed at us. Don't think we will go back in a hurry.

We've been visiting since 91' some of our faves are
IHOP on the I-Drive nr sandlake road crossing. some of the original staff still serve there 17 years on! we mainly use these for breakfasts............ samplers are just heavenly
Tony Roma's on I-Drive, never had a bad meal, eaten there day and evening and great value!
Charlies Stk House, again I-Drive................awesome, not cheap though. You need a wheel chair to cart you out!
Cheesecake factory _ Mall@Millenia offer an amazing choice...in fact too much though watch out as alot of it is dryfroze processed so not to good if you have food intollerences.
Kobe Steak house, I-Drive is great fun for a family outing.

Worst

Shoney, Ronnie, Sizzler, westernSteak house/outback.

Food I just love the stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Best for us: Shells' Seafood at Indian Rock's Beach, not in Disney area I know, but if your in that area.....

We had good and not so good experiences at 'The Sizzler'.

We had Great and one terrible experience at Joe's Crab Shack.......

But the best meals we had were steaks from Publix I grilled out by the pool with grilled corn, sauteed mushrooms, a nice large baked potato, and a frosty beverage......GOOD TIMES

The fresh fish from Publix is fantastic too. Cooked to perfection on the grill, washed down with a cool glass of wine while you're sat outside by the pool watching the sun go down. My idea of heaven. . Also the other bonus of course ... no-one draws the short straw for driving home
