Our favorite sandwiches are the Black Bird, the Hummer and the Zorba... well, and the meatloaf sandwich and the salmon sandwich too! And their cake of the day is always amazing! They’re known for their minty sweet tea, great casual atmosphere with seating inside and out. Only about 5 minutes away. Right across from lake Ella so it’s fun grab lunch to-go and picnic across the street.

Sadly they closed because of the pandemic but I’m keeping them in my guidebook with a hope and a prayer they can open up again someday!! Best Cuban in town! Super local dive. I can’t say enough about their cafe con leche, guava pastries, pressed sandwiches... awesome for breakfast or lunch. Very near FSU.

This is one of our favorite brunch places! The vibe is classy but casual. It’s small but you’ll always be able to find a cozy spot on their beautiful patio or inside. They serve lunch and dinner as well.

BEST BRUNCH AND FANCY LUNCH! I feel I get the best bang for my buck eating brunch or lunch, rather than dinner. They have a very quaint patio and nice dining room. They also serve my favorite fancy cocktails. This is a very seasonally driven restaurant. They take food and fine dining seriously. But you can also show up during the day and be casual.

Great BLOWOUT dinner experience!! It’s right downtown, swanky modern design, highest quality food in town. There’s a super cool bar just around the corner too for before or after dinner drinks. This is a place you dress up and plan to feel wined and dined.

There are no photos of the view you get when you eat here, but it’s right on the water! Lots of Greek inspired dishes. Some favorites see the Shrimp Feta pasta and their grilled octopus is amazing! Barry always orders the Panacea Painkillers, if you like a pina colada, you’ll love their painkiller. Full bar so plenty of beer and wine selections too.
