8 Of The 100 Most Popular Brunch Spots In The Country Are Right Here In Florida
Brunch has become one of the world’s favorite weekend past times. Typically enjoyed in lieu of breakfast and lunch, brunch is usually served from late morning to afternoon. The name is an obvious mashup of the words breakfast and lunch.
So, whether you’re celebrating a bachelorette party, Mother’s Day or just a Sunday Funday with girlfriends, there are some hot spots in Florida you’ll have to add to your list.
OpenTable recently released the 100 most popular brunch spots for 2023, and we’ve got locations in Florida we might just have to try on our next trip to Disney or the east coast.
One favorite that was listed and is closest to us here in Southwest Florida is Connor’s Steak & Seafood in Siesta Key. We do have a Connor’s in Estero at Gulf Coast Town Center, so no need to make the drive up North. You’ll find dishes like a Spinach & Strawberry Salad, a Boursin Burger and Spicy Fish Tacos. The perfect menu for a midday meal. Don’t forget a mimosa or Bloody Mary to wash it down.
Remember, May 14th is Mother’s Day – that’s next weekend and the perfect time to treat mom to brunch.

11 Florida Restaurants Added To Michelin Guide
11 Florida restaurants have been added to the 2023 Michelin Guide.
The Michelin Guide was first published in 1900 in France. Michelin tire company created the guide to encourage people to take road trips and use their ties. Over time, the guide evolved into a restaurant review guide. Restaurants receive ratings based on several factors, including the quality of their food, the chef’s skills, the restaurant’s ambiance, and the quality of service.
How are restaurants rated for the guide?
Earning a Michelin star comes with a very high level of prestige. The Michelin Guide considers a restaurant for the guide only after a trusted source, such as a food critic, chef, or previous Michelin inspector, recommends it. A team then reviews the restaurant and assigns it a rating from one to three stars. A one-star rating means it has very good cuisine, while a two-star rating indicates excellent cuisine. The most exceptional restaurants, those worth a special journey, receive three stars. As one can imagine, a Michelin star can profoundly impact a restaurant’s reputation and business.
The 2023 Michelin guide has added 11 restaurants in Florida, located in both Orlando and Tampa. Gwendal Poullennec is the International Director of the MICHELIN Guides. She said in a statement: “Florida’s finest flavors continue to impress the inspectors, who have enjoyed their visits to the Sunshine State. The restaurant teams are clearly inspired to serve the most delectable cuisine to food lovers – day in and day out. We are excited to celebrate their accomplishments and can’t wait to share those new discoveries with gourmets and travelers.”
