What a great meal this was! We went to Pisces Rising on the recommendation of the teller at our bank — I knew she lived in Mount Dora and told her my sister was coming in from out of state, and asked her where she'd recommend going for dinner. "Pisces Rising!," she said without hesitation. "It's our favorite." I looked it up online, liked the menu, and made reservation. The whole experience was fantastic. They seated us early — even before the restaurant opened — and it was all so much better than we expected. My sister and I both had the grilled pork tenderloin, which was spectacular. Moist, tender, flavorful. Beautiful presentation, too. We're definitely coming back!
