I have to preface this with a little background info. I have family that recently started working here. Years ago, we lived... upstairs above the art gallery on the same block that The Smiling Bison occupies. Back then it was DiVinci's, then SmokehouseBBQ and something else after that. We're not strangers in this neighborhood. But I moved away several years ago so I've onlybeen here at The Smiling Bison a handful of times and had some very good seasonal fare, both seated in the dining room and atthe bar sharing an entree with a friend. All good experiences. On the last visit I learned they have a chef's counter where youcan interact with the chef and see plates dressed as they go out. I got permission ahead of time to shoot photos with my Nikonwhich made it an extra special experience for me. The owner came by a couple of times and graciously spent some time chattingabout the restaurant happenings too. Everything was excellent. You can hear and see the creative care and passion in the foodfirst hand from these seats. I highly recommend booking the chef's counter. Read more

The Smiling Buffalo is one of the better restaurants in the Sanford area. Seating is ample, the ambience is very pleasant and... the service was tremendous. The food was prepared to perfection and the service was excellent. Overall, this restaurant is adefinitely 5 star plus. The signage is clearly present, parking abundant and the cost for dinner is $$. Enjoy! Read more

The bison burger on Texas toast is amazing. It's in a great location. The inside is small but there were plenty of seats... available on Saturday night. Inside has the old-downtown-building converted feel. Very cute and quaint. Prices were fair. Don'tvisit Sanford often but I will now to go get that bison burger! Read more

First time going there we were happy with everything from the food to the service. We weren't aware they did reservations but... were able to find a table in the bar area with no wait. Tried the duck pizza and wow!!!!!! Who would have thought that a Duckegg and Duck meat would go on pizza?! The cocktails were different but tasty! Definitely worth going checking it out! Read more

What a great place! This was my first trip to the Sanford location but I have been to the Orlando location several times before... it closed. From the moment you walk in you know you're going to have a good time. The staff is friendly cheerful andknowledgeable. The food is great and inventive as are the cocktails the beers and the wines on the list. I highly recommendmaking a trip to Sanford and stopping at The Smiling Bison. Read more
