Elenas Restaurant - (Near Punta Gorda, FL)

Ash Chaos Stopped by on Thanksgiving to get breakfast on the road, they were quick, friendly, and the food was hot. Loved the new sausage grilled cheese sandwich and the holly jolly sparkler.

Jennifer Hurst My review: Food was amazing, this is true authentic soul food. Nothing was too salty, everything had seasoning and an amazing taste. We had meatloaf, ribs, fried chicken, collard greens, Mac and cheese, beans, fried okra, broccoli casserole, mashed potatoes and gravy, roll and cornbread, peanut butter pie and coconut cream pie. Nothing and I mean nothing was bad, everything was amazing! The customer service, the staff was so sweet and asked us if we’ve ever been, we hadn’t so they showed us how to order properly. You don’t touch anything but grab the tray, they get the plates and serve you. The server was very attentive as well, she was even helping people with their trays to the table. Now I’d like to address other people’s reviews. I’ve seen people talk about the older gentleman that’s “rude” and “yells”. This man is an older African American man, he isn’t rude nor yelling, he’s speaking a bit louder for you to understand him through the glass and he’s trying to be quick so everyone can get through the line. Also anyone saying the food doesn’t taste good, I swear is lying! I have no ties to this restaurant not even this city, came in for a race and this food was absolutely amazing. I can tell by the reviewers that left awful reviews were a certain palm color and it’s apparent they’ve never been around a black family or they wouldn’t speak on the man’s voice being “loud and rude” OR the food being “nasty” if you’ve never had melt in your mouth meats and SEASONED sides, just say that. Every time I pass through Dade City my family and I will be back! Also to add the price for all my food listed was $63.00 without tips, absolutely amazing price for great service and portions.

mark antonio rodriguez Proprietor Antonio is super gracious and gregarious. Food is all hand-made on the spot and very quick (it was quiet when I arrived but got packed as I left). Ordered Tacos Al Pastor and Asada. Consistent flavor throughout. Simple, comfort food that hits the spot. Pleasant, very clean, campesino-style space, worth a stop.

Palma Ceraos I went to this little soul food spot the other night and honestly it felt pretty homey. The fried chicken had a nice crunch and the mac and cheese was super creamy, kinda like something your grandma would make. Service was friendly too, even though it was a bit busy, they still checked in a couple times. The place isn’t super fancy or anything, but that’s part of the charm I guess. Prices felt fair for what you get. Overall I’d say it was a good, cozy meal and I’d go back again.

LOYCE SAMWEL Clean and comfortable place very good service and great location good for the price even though we expected lower prices in the town

Sarah PB This is the second time we’ve had breakfast/ brunch at Robins. The food is consistently amazing, and the staff is SO friendly. It’s like going to eat at a friend’s place. It’s a clean, bright, happy place, and we’ll definitely be back. Don’t miss the biscuits and gravy with eggs and hash browns. It’s incredible! Thanks for another great meal!
