Best American Restaurants in Sanford

Amazing time spent at Shula’s for Valentine’s Day. Everything was perfect. Our service was amazing and the food was as good as ever!

This was our first time dining here, and it exceeded our expectations and then some! Our server was Elizabeth. She was so knowledgeable of the menu & recommended the Japanese milk bread, which is to DIE FOR! Definitely a must try when dining at F&D. It was Valentine’s Day, we were a little late for our reservation, but they were so kind & sat us with no problem at all. I was even given a rose for the occasion. Our sweet server, Elizabeth, gifted us a box of chocolate & sweet card at the end of the meal. If I could eat here for breakfast, lunch & dinner, I totally would. To start I ordered the French onion soup. 8/10 only because the cheese wasn’t as melted as I would like! But the taste was absolutely phenomenal. Portion size was 10/10, I couldn’t finish the bowl. I got the scallops for my main dish which were, more than amazing! Large & perfectly cooked. To drink I had an espresso martini, again, absolutely outstanding. Probably the best I’ve ever had. My husband had the NY strip blackened & I helped him gobble that down too. We shared a side of mashed potatoes. My man is picky with his potatoes and he gave them an 11/10. We left here stuffed, but not feeling terrible and sickly. We will definitely be regulars here. The price is not bad at all considering the quality and experience you are getting. Love this place!

We LOVE Lake Mary Social and everyone who works there! The food is incredible! I highly suggest this restaurant!

The beef tenderloin was delicious but I would have preferred medium rare 🙂 My guest had the prime rib, cooked medium rare to perfection and the cut was amazing for the price 😯The asparagus with the tenderloin was a bit overspiced and not as tender to my liking🫤 Overall the food was outstanding and our server was above excellent 🙂

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.
