Pioneer Restaurant - American restaurant in Zolfo Springs - 2902 Hwy 17, USA

Who knew I would get a delicious patty melt and a picture with Santa! What a Christmas miracle! Cash only so be aware of that. Had very friendly service and they have great french fries!

Online it said this restaurant open all day, but when we got there at 1:50pm, they were out of most of the specials and several of the sides and were told they have different hours closing at 2pm and know they need to update Google....as another patron came in and sat down, we decided to stay...we choose cheeseburgers and asked them to be grilled medium which the cook did a great job doing for us, but we felt the patties were frozen not freshly made, buns were not grilled with butter, and my mash potatoes were $2.99 for instant not homemade...hamburgers do not come with a side, so paid $2.99 extra for fries too...but the fries were the star of the plate! Crisp and hot! Nice iced tea and wait staff!!

Oh my goodnezz.....this place is awesome. Everything on the hand written menu is delicious! You will love this place@!

If I could give a zero I would. It's a wonder the health department hasn't shut them down! The bathrooms are pig sties! The old woman is very rude! She wouldn't let me and my service dog in, she said he wasn't allowed. I guess she doesn't know that it's a law! I will share this with everyone I know!

We got right in and sat down and our drinks came right away. We had to wait a while for our food to come out, but it came out hot and delicious. Our server made sure our drinks were always full. I don't hold the server accountable for the wait on the food, so 5 ⭐ all around.

For so many years I’ve been driving past this little restaurant sitting well established deep within the aquifers of zoflo springs. While so many continue to drive right on by, the smart ones come to a full stop here. All train tracks end here as momma is the back conducting the kitchen bell. All pioneers coming through found their fountain of youth, inflation was certainly not found here! The buck stopped at cash register leaving plenty in the kitty. The coconut cream pie is one of the best I have ever tried and could be mistaken for ice cream. There is nothing fancy here but all good homemade cookin and table spirits.

Certainty a family owned restaurant. Great welcoming vibe and so much more. The owners still work the place and spend time to talk with any customer who walks through the door. The was just a tad bit … watery and lacked of seasonings. It was good but … missing something.

Great food on a budget. Dad and I had pork cutlet w/ gravy. Came with three sides. Cabbage was tasty as was cucumber salad. For both of us it was $20 total + tax. Will be back.
