Brittany McLean Brought my daughter here to celebrate her 11th birthday. Had a fabulous time! We had the California roll, Brenden roll, veggie sushi platter, and the Hawaiian roll. All were so fresh and came out quickly. We also had the veggie and tofu ramen and my middle daughter had the hell ramen. 10/10 so good! My fiancé also had the chicken and filet mignon hibachi. He said it was the best he’s had in a long time. The service was amazing and the staff was so attentive! Will definitely be back. ☺️

Mark Cross Awesome Philly cheese steak. The fries are outstanding. Ill be back for a burger and fries for sure.

Christopher Thomas Great little place we stumbled into. We were just passing thru and found this great place to eat. Morgan was a great server and was very helpful in recommending means items. She was the best server wee has on our trip!

Jill Evert We had a wonderful experience here! The breakfast was absolutely delicious, especially the chicken and dumplings. Our waitress, Theresa, was fantastic: attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed without ever feeling rushed. We also enjoyed browsing the shop, which was full of nostalgic gifts that brought back a lot of memories. The restroom was clean and well maintained.

Mikesha Mixson I enjoyed my time at the grand opening! Definitely the aesthetic that our little town needed. It’s very nice! From the black containers to the nice bar! You can tell all of the details were well thought out all the way down do the shells on the bathroom floor! The prices may not be what we’re used to but I’d pay for the experience over and over again! Perfect spot for a night out

William Pitts The service here was so amazing. I walked in and was instantly greeted with so much hospitality you would have thought I was Paul Newman walking into a nursing home. I ordered my food and was quickly seated. While I was seated I met the sweetest girl, Ms. Lauren. We talked to Lauren and learned about her aspirations of becoming a nurse and how she’s been working here to fund college and buy herself a car. People like Lauren are the reason Chick Fil A is such an amazing place. She personally threw away our food and opened the door on our way out. 10/10 experience, would recommend!!!

Lance Taylor I live in Miami and this is literally some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had in the state of Florida. The tacos taste like you just bought them off of a taco stand in Mexico. Everything was amazing, fresh and tasty. The staff was super friendly and the prices can’t be beat!!

Luis Antonio Maigon We had a wonderful time at this location. We were seated within 10 minutes of arriving around 11:15am. The place did start to fill up around noon but there didnt seem to be much of a wait. We stopped by on our way home to south Florida. Isaac was a fantastic server. The food was prepared correctly and we did have one plate returned but it was corrected quickly. The overall experience was terrific. I recommend this spot for great steaks. I had the steak and rib platter and the ribs were amazing. Next time Im ordering full rack!

Debra All I can say is soooooo delicious! Stopped here on our way to Miami for a cruise. Owner is so friendly and food is outstanding. Best Cuban sandwich, beef empanadas and croquettes. Thanks from Illinois!

Kevin Staefe Stopped in at about 11:00 on a Sunday, they had a brunch menu for the food. For a starter I highly recommend the Honey Whipped Feta Dip, great flavor and plenty of dip. Followed it up with a breakfast croissant sandwich, was just enough. Had a flight and the beers were good. I liked the OLeno Cream Ale and the Red Irish Ale. The building is pretty cool and has history. It has been several government buildings and now is a brewery. Will definitely be back.

Joseph Raphael ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ As a Cuban, I can honestly say Maggie’s Cuban Restaurant is phenomenal. The food tastes like home—authentic, fresh, and full of flavor, just the way it should be. Every dish feels homemade with real care, not like something you find in most restaurants. From the perfectly seasoned meats to the sides that remind me of my abuela’s kitchen, it’s the real deal. If you’re looking for genuine Cuban food in Lake City, this is it. Warm hospitality, generous portions, and flavors that will make you want to come back again and again. Highly recommend to anyone—whether you grew up with Cuban food or are trying it for the first time, Maggie’s delivers the true experience.

Jennifer Brady Great flavors not bland love the spices and sauces love watching them flip the wok when they cook great atmosphere definitely a treat bra and the chicken wings the batter is the best

Samantha Thorn Hands down some of the best food my family and I have tried. I forgot to take a picture of the Bang Bang shrimp and Fried pickles when they first came out as everyone tackled them the second it touched the table. But i did take a picture of what I had on my plate. The Shrimp and grits were done so well and flavorful. Such a great portion as well. The pulled pork and tots was amazing. The cheese and lime cream sauce on top made it as well. This will be another favorite place to go to.

Clayton Bigsby First time trying this establishment and I was happy that I did. The service was great and friendly as well as the atmosphere being very clean. The ribs, smoked chicken, and peach cobbler egg rolls were amazing great flavor. I was not a fan of the Mac and cheese as that was the only item I had an issue with but other than that everything else was great. Highly recommended place to give a try.
