Carol’s Place

This place has a feeling if traditional diner. They do not have a large menue for breakfast, but were kind enough to make eggs benedikt for me to order. The tea was hot, not very often you get this in restaurants. I had grits with my eggs, and the meal was exactly what I was looking for on a chilly Saturday morning. They open early, I recommend this place, and will be back for sure!

First time at Carols this morning, service was awesome and the food came out quick everything was cooked just the way i ask. This is now my new breakfast place for sure, glade I stoped by.

Great place! Friendly staff and good food. Biscuits are on point! Love the hometown country feel! Will definitely be back!

Great food, reasonable prices a staple on Orange Ave! Eat local! BUT, Once check is down make sure you have all you need, cause she isn’t coming back.

The food is good, but if you expect anything other than mediocre service you are not going to get it. My wife and I had been frequent diners there for the past year, but after being ignored on Sunday, we decided to seek breakfast elsewhere. After a short drive, we ran into «Sharon’s» good food and good friendly service.

Cool place!
Was looking for somewhere to have a good breakfast after showing Noemi some of the places my family and I used to hang out downtown and I found Carol’s Place.
This is just good, old school, down home cooking. I had the eggs Benedict which was just delicious and my mom and Noemi had biscuits and gravy and a seriously loaded omelette respectively. And the home fries are perfect, among the best I’ve had.
Convenient location on Orange Ave. Parking lot is a little small but really that’s my only gripe if you can even call it a gripe. Gets kind of busy but even on a beautiful Sunday morning after church hours we didn’t wait very long… And you know I don’t do lines and waiting, especially for food.
Good food, very friendly and attentive service and just an all around nice spot. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in «The City Beautiful.»

After missing my workout class due to traffic downtown I decided to indulge in breakfast to make up for the fact! Found this place on Unilocal,thanks guys! My friend is from Georgia so she loves southern cooking, this place seemed perfect! The place is tiny and the parking is lot is small but that tells you it’s good! The atmosphere is like a quint cottage and the décor is honey chicken and roosters. The menu had typical breakfast eggs, French toast, pancakes with southern flair of biscuits & grits! We both opted for the ham & cheddar scramble! To our surprise it also came with option of 2 sides. I got hash browns and pumpkin spice pancakes being it was Halloween pumpkin was only fitting! My friend made sure she got her grits with cheese. Food came out pretty quick and was really filling. The pumpkin pancake was great! The scramble was good and I enjoyed the hash browns. Great breakfast spot for a reasonable price!

Glad we read the reviews! Tried the spinach, bacon and egg white omelet as recommended, and it was delicious! Wasn’t crazy about the pumpkin pancakes though. Service was fast. Food was hot and the atmosphere was calm for a diner. Nice!

(really 2 ½ stars) Our first impression when we walked in was how filthy the floor was (food, napkins & who knows what else was all over the place) Our second impression was how bad their coffee is… it’s really bad… Our third impression: our server let out a huge yawn while she was taking our order… The servers have a «rode hard and put away wet» look about them… Of course, we were very apprehensive about how our food was going to turn out… Our server delivered the wrong order to our table TWICE, and then tried to blame the kitchen! Well, aside from our negative first impressions, the food is delicious! The guys in the kitchen know exactly what they’re doing and they’re doing it right! We both ordered the Farmers Omelet that came packed with meats, vegetables & cheese. The three egg omelets were huge & cooked to perfection! I decided to get a pancake rather than toast & it was also huge, fluffy and delicious. Too bad they serve «spread» rather than butter.

I have been coming here for years, I’ve tried other restaurants but nothing comes close to carols, is all I can say is give it a try, you will keep coming back.

Absolutely love this little diner. Always great service and hot food! I love their egg white omelets here with spinach and bacon. Not like peach valley or other breakfast places where you omelet comes out with 2 pieces of spinach. Here they pack your omelet full of spinach and bacon. Home fries are always piping hot and crispy on the outside. Fruit cups are actually fresh fruit also. Highly recommend Carols!

Pretty great!
The place was full and only got more busy as we ate. There was a bit of a wait for the food, as well.
I got the Country Boy and my guy got the half biscuits and gravy with 2 eggs and 2 bacon.
Hash, eggs, and bacon were cooked perfectly. They listened and were able to make over medium eggs and soft, chewy bacon.
The gravy was better than most places, being tasty, a perfect consistency, and not super salty. The only thing it was missing was real sausage.
There was one big downside, though, and that was the coffee. It was… filmy.
We will definitely return, though!

From out of town. Came here after the airport for some breakfast.
The service was pretty decent, the food was not.
Two long hairs found in the grilled chicken sandwhich. The food was mediocre, nothing special.
Would not recommend

This is a hreat breakfast and lunch diner. I have been coming here for 11 years. Great omelets and burgers. Great friendly service. Must try.

Great place for a country home cooked meal. My mom just loved this place. She ordered the biscuits and gravy with eggs and bacon and was in love with the biscuits. They are humongous and tasty. She even stole mine for later (it was fantastic but I’m trying to cut carbs). My egg and bacon omelette was not exceptional but it was good nonetheless. I loved the fruit bowl, a good mix of bananas, grapes, strawberries and pineapple. I would highly recommend you give this place a try. It’ll be worth it!

Great Lil breakfast and lunch place. Today was my second visit. Affordable and yummy Western omelette. The biscuits are heaven! Our child’s plate of pancake in sausage just 3 dollars! My partner got the country fried steak and loved it. Having recently dined at IHOP for breakfast and paid more for much less — I’ll be going here for breakfast more often! Waitress was also great.

Great place for some down home cooking. It’s a great cozy place to have a nice big plate of some eggs and potato dishes for a steal of a price. The biscuit and gravy are damn good too.

5 stars of local Orlando home cookin’
Open from 6am– 3pm Monday– Sunday
service: great
food: comes out fast and taste like your grandma made it!
price is on point, this place will not break the bank by any means…
warning: SUNDAY MORNINGS ARE JAM PACKED so you may need to wait 15– 20 min.
By far the best salsa in town!

I went here a few months ago the place was packed the food was so so and it kind of had the dirty old and unupdated feel to it

I don’t get over to this area of Orange Avenue that often. But I recently had a chance to stop in one morning for breakfast. And this place never disappoints. Carol’s Place is nothing fancy. No counter, but plenty of tables to seat yourself. The interior reminds me of a country style, farmhouse kitchen. Decorations and artwork adorn the walls, and various coffee mugs sit on display shelves near the kitchen. And I bet no two coffee mugs are the same. Which makes me to wonder if the plates and silverware match? This place sure looks different from its Bungalow Bill’s days! But I’ll tell you about that some other time!
Breakfast and lunch is available. I have never been here for lunch, but breakfast has people coming in. It is the usual fare, eggs with a side of meat, grits or hash browns, and choice of toast. Biscuits and gravy, pancakes, omelets, and Eggs Benedict are also featured.
This last time I had breakfast, I had the corned beef hash covered in cheese and three eggs, cooked over light. The breakfast also came with toast and a side of grits. With coffee, it came to just a little over $ 8.00. Delicious!
Whenever I have been in here, the service is good, the food is good, and the crowd is great for people watching. It is usually an older crowd, many people knowing one another and talking about the business of the day. Over a cup of coffee. And that cup doesn’t match any others. But I never hear anyone complain about their meal. Service can get slow from time to time, but the waitress will usually apologize for any mishaps, fill your coffee mug, and correct any problem.
If you don’t know anyone here, don’t worry. Just grab a table, order a coffee, and get a menu. And there are usually breakfast specials for the day if you can’t make up your mind over what to get from the menu.
Such as the pumpkin pancakes that were featured on the specials of the day. And this place does make a good pancake! I might just have to find a reason to get back over there soon!
