DeLand Eatery

Update: The Deland Eatery graciously hosted my son’s graduation dinner, with only a weeks notice. It was the perfect t venue, spectacular food, great service and incredible hospitality. The bolognese, pork and shrimp were all delicious. I can’t thank all of the staff, Casey and Ian for making the last week of festivities so memorable.

I was in town for my son’s wedding and had 2 opportunities to eat at this restaurant. Both experiences were amazing. I had a smash burger and fries for lunch. So delicious. We sat outside, enjoyed great cocktails and excellent service. On Sunday we had 30 people for a family style brunch…. Omg… everything was sooooo delicious including the bloody Mary’s. Brunch was spectacular! I highly recommend everything about this place.

We took the grandbaby teenagers here for dinner. All I can say is if you haven't been, it's a must. This place was so clean, cozy, friendly staff and great food.
If you have a love for pickles, then you will love that to bc they continue to refill your bowl.
Our waiter Andrew was the best & made great suggestions that were spot on.
They even have outside dining on the patio.
We will definitely be going back.

We only come here for drinks, but the food looks amazing as well. Everything is very pricey here but worth it. The cocktails are mixed precisely and delicious. I always get the gin drink with egg whites, my family got the margaritas and my Dad got the 151 drink. All were amazing. This is a must visit place every time I’m in town.

This place is a hidden gem! Charm, elegance and cleanliness are an understatement. The food was excellent and absolutely delicious. The Owner was nice, friendly, informative and really welcoming. We will be coming back for dinner and definitely need to try the brunch everyone rants and raves about. I highly recommend visiting this place! We live 45 minutes northeast and are so glad we found this amazing little restaurant. You’ll be amazed how inexpensive and yet quality the dishes are !!

Our dinner was excellent! The menu is a nice mix of sandwiches and entrées and interesting side dishes. They are known for their Smashburger, which lived up to the hype. The french fries, however, stole the show. The fried chicken is reminiscent of a cordon bleu - minus the cream sauce. So crunchy and delicious. Don’t miss this little gem of a restaurant.!

This is such a cute place for dinner! We came with a party of 10 (including two kids) and they accommodated us great! We did sit outside, but the fans kept it nice and cool! The kids loved the outdoor area - they were able to run around while we all ate. The food was fantastic! We got a variety of dishes and all of them were better than the last.

Small local eatery. Stopped for brunch and had an absolutely amazing set of dishes come out. The cinnamon bun was enormous! The biscuits and breads were toasted to perfection. The staff was prompt and very friendly. They had live music on the back patio and with the fans on it wasn't unbearable with the summer heat.
My patty melt was delicious, the onions were perfectly caramelized, through the entire sandwich I would hold onto the bread and it was not soggy. Stellar!

Excellent atmosphere, service and the food ! Super good smash burger! One of the best I've ever had. I had to take a bite before the photo! And pet friendly! 👍

I went in with high expectations of DeLand Eatery after hearing about it from several friends. It did not disappoint! The location and restaurant itself is adorable. You could really tell the craft put into everything on the menu, from the hand made bread to house smoked wings we had as an appetizer ( I forgot to take a picture). I had the everything bagel fried rice and it’s officially my new favorite meal.
Our server was friendly and knowledgeable. It was an added bonus that we were able to enjoy a craft cocktail from next door. Overall, we had a fantastic experience- we will absolutely be back!

Great food, loved the cocktails next door, and be sure to check out the outside patio for live music! The smash burger was awesome, fried chicken was crispy, and the corn salad is a must try side!

We were seated outside and the wait staff kinda left us hanging. I went in for our menus and I guess the owner came out with them and was very nice and helpful. He gave us a rundown of the menu and his recommendations. After that, everything was awesome and the food was fantastic. Cinnamon roll was very good, the smash burgers and fries were off the chain. Good bloody marys also. I will be back and I will definitely refer people to this place. A+++

Food was probably the best we've had in the area to date - Bloody Mary was on point, as was the service. Outside eating here is worth it, great deck/lounge area outside.

Went to DeLand eatery tonight (a Friday night) and it was our first time there. We will DEFINITELY be back! It was absolutely wonderful. The server was prompt, friendly and knowledgeable. Food was AMAZING! So flavorful and the menu was diverse. This place is a hidden gem. They truly care about your experience!! I will be recommending this local place to everyone I know.

Phenomenal! What a hidden gem! Walk around and really take in the beauty of the hotel and bar area! What a relaxing and chill place! The food was just soooooo enjoyable! Simple fare, but done soooooo well! Already planning to go back again this week!

I went there this weekend and had the smash burger. It was so good! I also enjoyed the corn salad! My only complaint is the water served at the table isn't very cold. Awesome place!

This is a new place in the Deland hotel, right next to Hemingway’s 442. They have amazing brunch on the weekends and dinner during the week. Great service staff, swanky ambience and wonderful food/drink. Craft cocktails, live music on weekend nights. We love this place!

1st time trying this local gem... it was amazing, service was great and fast. Staff super friendly and attentive. Thank you so much for a great 1st experience! The Colon family

Incredible food, drinks, service and atmosphere. A must when we're in central Florida! Love their smash burger, it's delicious!!

This place is a hidden gem. The food is amazing! Definitely the best place in Deland. Every time we come, we are greeted by the most genuine servers. 10/10 recommend!

Always delicious. We have been many times and never disappointed. The smash burger is the best burger in town. The homemade pasta is fantastic. Can't beat the cocktails, and teh service is always great. Highly recommend!
