"Location! Location! Location!" - A well-known phrase that can be applied to The Frosty Mug Icelandic Restaurant & Pub in Mount Dora. After operating for 7 years in another building nearby, sister owners Thora and Maria, relocated the Frosty Mug in January to the corner of Donnelly St. and 4th Avenue, close to the many small shops in the downtown area. They found they have three times the seating capacity for their popular restaurant and two full service bars.
Interesting lists of menu items are available both at lunch and dinner. “Sveppa Strimlar” – beer battered Portobello mushroom strips, lightly fried with a tangy Frosty Mug dipping sauce might spike your interest. Other interesting choices are the Icelandic haddock, pan seared with onions and fresh herbs and lemon, Schnitzel (breaded pork loin), herb & pistachio crusted Rack of Lamb or a Veggie Ragu Pomodoro with chicken or shrimp.
Their menu also includes salads, soups, burgers, and sandwich items such as a veggie panini or a brat with kraut. You must leave a little room for their wonderful homemade desserts...Guinness chocolate cake (made with stout), cheesecake of the day or a Florida Snowball!
On Friday and Saturday evenings you can hear the delightful sounds of jazz and blues filtering through the upstairs until 2 AM. Sunday afternoon dining is accompanied by music on the baby grand piano for your dining pleasure. The restaurant opens daily at 11 AM.
