Reviews for The Goblin Market Restaurant & Lounge in Mt Dora, FL

My husband and I absolutely ADORE this place. We recommend lunch moreso than dinner as we feel there's better service earlier in... the day. The food is great and you can really tell the love the kitchen has for their work. Sitting at the bar is also afantastic experience as the bar tenders are super nice and personable. I think it's important to remember this isn't fastfood...you WILL have to wait for your items. It's also very much a lounge type of place where you are drinking and talking andeating, expect to spend time here. This is NOT the place for someone who wants in and out in an hour or less. Places like thisare an experience not just a quick place to grab a sandwich. If you're looking for a great experience with good food and arelaxing vibe this is the place to be! Read more

Went for Sunday lunch. Very cozy restaurant. Started with the Layered Harvest Moon Sangria - excellent! Refreshing and summery... but also very nice near the holidays. Very versatile! I had the Warm Tender Salad with beef tips - the balsamic dressing was asyou would hope - good balsamic flavor balanced with sweetness. The beef was tender with a slight glaze. Great choice for a largesalad meal. My friend had the Shrimp Salad Croissant- it was very large and full of Shrimp Salad. Good balance of shrimp tomayo. The fennel was a nice highlight. The service was very good. Read more

Mouthwatering. Tranquil. Bougie. Visiting the Goblin Market in Mt Dora is an enjoyable, relaxing, and deliciously satisfying... experience. The Salmon Caesar Salad is impeccable, as is the crab bisque. In addition, this restaurant has outdoor seatingoptions including a small courtyard which conjure feelings of serenity and posh dining amidst lovely plants. Excellent serviceby staff and highly attentive. Would highly recommend visiting Goblin Market if you?re in Mt Dora, just make sure if it?s aSaturday that you arrive before noon to get the best table in the outdoor courtyard. Read more

I wanted to try something different for lunch and decided on this place. First impression is WOW! The place reminds me of an old... librarians house with 1st edition novels in their collection. Needless to say, the decor and atmosphere is really cool. Thedrinks were very good. The soups were flavorful and warming. My shrimp salad on a croissant was seasoned to perfection. This wasjust lunch. I can't imagine how great their dinner would be. We'll be returning for sure! Read more

Beautiful outdoor seating, shaded & breezy, AMAZING food & drinks. Blueberry coconut mojito was my fave. Sangria is INCREDIBLE.... Crab bisque & onion soup are out of this world. Our server, Sydney K. was the BEST! New favorite restaurant- will definitely beback! Read more

Great service by all, especially our waiter/bartender Paul. We had lunch in the second floor bar at one of the two high tops.... We had the Irish burgers, substituting the beer-battered fries with side salads. The drink menu is frequently updated, today Ihad the blueberry coconut mojito- highly recommend. The desserts are huge, big enough to share. Read more

Nice place with outdoor seating in a quaint 3 table patio. Staff was good and attentive with no wait line at the time we... arrived which was about 11:30am. Menu for the art festival was short but had plenty of nice options. Had a well made and alsoattractive bloody Mary and partner had a freshly brewed decaffeinated coffee. She ordered the portobello mushroom wrap and Ihad the pork on the bun. Both were delicious and we would go back to try more dishes. So a clean place that has burgers and moreon their regular menu. A real cool place for a date. Read more

My wife looked at many reviews before selecting this for lunch as we were only in town for a few hours. She had the Florida... shrimp salad and I had the Irish cheddar burger. Both the service and food were very good - was a little hot in the sun but wechoose outside. After lunch we looked around and found another area that might have been a better choice. My wife, who ispaints watercolor and is very sensory, found the decorating to be nice. We'd eat here again. Read more
