Best Historic Restaurants in Longwood

Great location, great food, great service, and great ambience! The house made focaccia was especially good with the citrus butter. The seasoning on the crisp bread was delicious. The shrimp and tomato bucatini was a great dish made with fresh pasta. The beef angus burger was enjoyable. The Winter Park Vice is a good mocktail and the Pineapple Flip Whip was a sweet, frothy alcoholic drink. The chocolate decadence is a delicious dessert. The decor is modern, elegant and has a touch to Winter Park history. I can’t wait to go back and try other dishes.

We had another great dinner at Russel’s for Valentine’s Day. Probably one of the best meals we’ve had there yet. My salmon was great and my wife enjoyed the pork chop a lot. Our server Reagan was attentive and friendly and we got a chance to meet the owner. Our table was next to the window with great views of the lake. I highly recommend Russel’s for great dining experience.

First time coming here and was not disappointed. Love the environment, the use of the Old Jailhouse. You get theming and history of downtown Sanford. The food was excellent! Had some starters with croquettes, pretzels and Calamari! So delicious, the flavors came out in all of the dishes. Then the entree’s so fresh, inventive and delicious. Tried a little bit of family dishes, from NY strip to their burger to Steak Mac. The staff super friendly, tentative and gave good recommendations! Will be back most definitely.

Wonderful place to connect with a group of friends. Service was terrific. We had 20 people and everyone had a good time. Pizza was my favorite in addition to the beer.
