10 Twenty Five

Saturday, May 23, 2026 Another first-time spot for us to check out! If you’re looking for something different and not your typical chain restaurant, I definitely recommend 10 Twenty Five. The restaurant has a great open-concept atmosphere featuring a full bar and outdoor seating, which gave it a very relaxed and welcoming vibe. My wife ordered the chicken lettuce wraps, and I originally went with the Hippie Burger. My wife said her lettuce wraps were absolutely delicious. As for me, I realized after ordering that I had only read the title of the burger and not the ingredients, so it just wasn’t for me. When Josh came over and asked how everything was, I explained the situation. He was extremely understanding and kind enough to swap it out for wings, which I really appreciated. We will definitely be back this coming Saturday for brunch, and Josh also told us about the dog rescue event they’ll be hosting there. Josh even gave me a koozies, that definitely made me feel appreciated for coming in. Manager Josh — 5 out of 5 stars Server Kayla — 5 out of 5 stars Staff — 5 out of 5 stars

Lunch stop! Saw this place passing thru and made a pit stop. Located in a small strip mall near 7-11 and few other smaller shops. Sit inside or outside or by the bar. Super friendly staff. We opted for outside - ac was too cold for us NJersians. Our nice waitress offered me an item not on a menu - wrap with blackened chicken. Enough spice and very fresh and tasty. Came with a side - i opted for garlic brussles sprouts. Mrs had a shrimp taco - wolfed it down in 2 minutes it was so good. Side was bar fries. Not bad either. She had a nice seltzer drink - got tipsy and loved the taste. Not sure if i am ready to call this place a HIDDEN GEM - simply dont know the area well enough yet, but they were BUSY so it must be a popular spot! Give them a try

Let’s start with the food: Pretzel and Beer Cheese: Amazing! Didn’t skimp on the portion of beer cheese, pretzel was crisp on the outside, soft on the inside. You Gouda try this!: Probably the favorite of the table. Cheesy on the first bite with that smoky Gouda and the crunch of the fried chicken, Outstanding! The Bully: Over all okay. Tri-tip is lean and for this sandwich there needed to be that fattiness of shaved ribeye. A little under seasoned and lacking on the whizz. Caramelized onions brought a nice sweetness and the roll was a perfect match. Poultryguist: So much potential. All the flavors are there. From the basil mozzarella and roasted red peppers to the arugula and balsamic glaze. Where it could improve is simple…more. The chicken was very thin and the topping just felt a little short changes. For those who are still reading the rest will focus on the service and atmosphere. Service is a 5 out of 5: The wait staff was great, smiling, friendly and attentive, food came out hot and fairly quick. Bartenders delivered drinks and we were checked on by multiple staff member. The one critique on service we have is the hostess. No smile, no welcome or sense of urgency. The first impression when you walk in the door should be positive and welcoming. Lastly is atmosphere: Nothing bad, also nothing great to say. Chairs are kinda cold and mismatched, very clean just basic which okay.

So glad we found this spot on our last day in Florida because honestly… everything else we tried around here felt like a straight tourist trap. Walked in, saw a table of local firefighters eating and immediately knew we finally found the right place. That’s usually the best review you can get. The vibe here is exactly what you want in a good local bar and grill—relaxed, loud enough to feel alive, and full of people who clearly come here all the time. Staff was awesome. Super friendly, quick with drinks, and actually fun to talk to instead of the usual robotic service you get at tourist places. Menu was solid and priced really fair for the area. A lot of seafood spots around Cape Coral lean heavy on the “vacation tax,” but this place didn’t feel like it was trying to rob you just because you’re near the water. Beer selection was surprisingly good too. And the $7 shot special definitely didn’t hurt morale. Food came out quick and everything was fresh. The shrimp tacos were great and the fried Brussels sprouts were one of those sides you order thinking “this will be fine” and then end up finishing the entire bowl. From what I’ve seen, this place has been a local staple for a while and it makes sense why. If you’re visiting Cape Coral and want something that actually feels like a real local hangout instead of a polished tourist machine, this is the move.

We came across this little gem while visiting Cape Coral. The food and drinks are excellent with a wide variety of specialty tastes throughout the menu. The holiday drink specials were fun and tasty with different combos of alcohol and ingredients. The Dip, Dip Hurray was very good as well as the Chichen and The Egg deviled eggs. The smash burger was so good resting in Guoda sauce. The staff is friendly and fun and eager to please your tastes, they stressed that everything is prepared fresh and they can accommodate anything. One last thing that is not food/drink related is this, the bathrooms had signs that said "inclusive". I cannot stress how important and compassionate this is, especially during this time in our society. This shows that you as a company, value everyone who comes in to dine here regardless of who they are. The only negative for this place, and it really isn't a negative, is that you don't have another location in Winter Garden/Orlando Florida. If you did,we would be regulars.
