1921 Mount Dora
At 1921, elevated fare from celebrated chef Norman Van Aken pays homage to local Florida ingredients with an eye toward modernity and sustainability. Housed in a historic residence across the street from Mount Dora’s Modernism Museum, the restaurant features artful masterpieces, including a Murano glass chandelier above the chef’s table and hand-crafted tables and seating in the Nakashima room.
Mount Dora Marketplace
“Mount Dora Marketplace is like a co-op with a ton of little eateries, from breweries to crepes and a Colombian restaurant,” Gamez says. “You can get an empanada from here, a crepe from there, a beer from the brewery, a hodge lodge of all the deliciousness and sit and enjoy.”
HandleBar
Above the Marketplace is the HandleBar, a speakeasy-style outpost with beautiful, handcrafted cocktails and views of downtown, says Gamez.
Lakeside Inn
