Lakeside Bites 19733 Wellen Park Boulevard, Venice, FL 34293

"Waited a half an hour for two burgers. Burgers were cold and there were no onions as menu had said. Very plain. Fries had sat for 30 minutes before we got them. Soggy and cold. Waste of money for 46 dollars. Threw food away. Other customers were irate which caused for anxious experience."

"I visited lakeside for the first time today and ordered the cuban pannini. sauce was very flavorful and had lots of meat, the food was very filling and the employee was very kind to make sure i had everything i needed. would definitely come back again"

"I’ve been a customer here since it opened and this place has never disappointed me. I’m always so shocked how good the portions and prices the food is, let alone how delicious it is. The staff is also extremely respectful and kind as well."

"Ordered gator bites and menu states we would get them with hush puppies and a sauce. Paid $16.05 which we already thought was quite expensive for fried food. Ended up getting a bed of fries and 6 "bites". No sauce. First thought was this was a very small amount of food for the price. Fries were good but we were convinced that they gave us the hush puppies instead of gator bites as everything that I have seen online and had is that they are supposed to be whole and not ground up and pink on the inside. Upon asking the staff and giving the benefit of the doubt that there was a mistake, they confirmed that what we got were gator bites and the menu was wrong While sitting and eating, they then changed the menu and did not include gator bites on it. Pretty confused and very underwhelmed that we got a bed of fries and 6 "gator bites" for $16."

"I ordered the pick your own bowl and it’s yummy. I got it with grilled chicken, onions, peppers and corn. The chicken was done beautifully, and portion size did not disappoint! I recommend trying this place when enjoying downtown Wellen Park."
