“Father’s Day Brunch at Summer House was fantastic!!! This was our first time here and everything was so good! Our server Sam was so friendly, fun, and helpful. She took great care of us the entire time. We tried so many items this time and can’t wait to come back again for more. Thanks!”
“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful experience at Summer House on the Lake. The food was delicious, fresh, and high quality, and every dish we ordered was full of flavor. The atmosphere was one of my favorite parts of the restaurant—it truly felt like a beautiful, breezy summer day and created a relaxed, welcoming vibe. The cocktails were excellent, well-prepared, and very enjoyable. The service was good, and I especially appreciated that the children’s menu included some healthier options, which can be hard to find and was a nice touch for families. We had a great time and would definitely return on a future visit. Highly recommend!”
“Update (April 2026): Came back and wanted to highlight how strong their gluten-free options are. The gluten-free fried chicken sandwich was perfectly crispy, and the fish and chips were just as good—light, crunchy, and full of flavor. They also offer gluten-free desserts, including a chocolate chip cookie and brownie, which are both worth it. It’s rare to find this level of consistency and quality with gluten-free items. Still one of my top spots at Disney Springs—especially if you’re looking for great gluten-free options that don’t feel like a compromise. Had an amazing experience here! I ordered the gluten-free crispy chicken sandwich and it was not only delicious, but I felt completely safe eating it, which is huge for anyone with dietary restrictions. The staff was knowledgeable and took extra care with allergies, which really stood out. The atmosphere is beautiful—bright, airy, and perfect for a relaxed meal at Disney Springs. Definitely one of the best gluten-free dining experiences I’ve had here. I’ll absolutely be back! 📍 More gluten-free finds on Instagram: @glutenfreewithkeith”
“Brunch at Summer House on the Lake in Disney Springs was such a great experience! Drinks (Aperol Spritz, Spicy Bloody Mary, Espresso Martini) were all 10/10, flavorful and actually potent. The deviled eggs were zesty and delicious, and the cinnamon roll is a must for a group (perfectly sweet and great for sharing). The crispy chicken sandwich and Mexican tostadas were amazing. The egg sandwich felt bland and lacked flavor, even with the sauce. The huevos rancheros were creative, but it felt more like a giant quesadilla pizza with a small amount of eggs and toppings on top. The bread-to-egg ratio was off, and I ended up leaving half because it was just too much pita compared to the toppings. A smaller portion would make it feel more balanced. Service was great, the lake views were beautiful, and the overall vibe felt special and celebratory. We’ll definitely be back!”
“Service and vibe are both top notch, food leaves mush to be desired, though. The structural integrity of the chicken adobo tacos was nonexistent and the guac lacked the authentic flavor I’d expect from a relatively simple dish. I’m sure there were lots of other menu options that tasted better, but this place could benefit from putting the same amount of effort that was put into the decor and ambiance into their food.”
