“Hometown Jacksonville - Award winning, retired Exec. Chef - always on the lookout for that special restaurant where exceptional prepared food and ambiance and great service meet my expectations for that five star rating - I found it in Crystal River Fl. at the “ Vintage at Fifth” . From the salads the appetizers, the crispy Duck, the Rib Eye Steak even the Macaroni Chicken Cheese dish all were superb. My compliments to the Chef and management for their dedication to excellence!”

“Excellent food and service. We tried clam chowder and crab bisque. Both were awesome and loaded with seafood. Grouper was awesome. Crab stuffed shrimp wrapped in bacon a must. Kaitlin was attentive and informative. Lovely girl. This place is worth the drive to Ozello.”

“Everything about this place was excellent! Manager Julie seated us and was so great! Our server was Bree and let me just say, I wish she worked at every restaurant in town. We tried the jalapeño bacon, cinnamon swirl dollar pancakes, home fries, french toast and their eggs. Every bite was delicious! 10/10 ⭐️”

Thank you for all the hard work y'all do owners and staff !! See you soon 😊”

“I purchased a Lemon Meringue pie and a Pumpkin Streusel pie from this pie shop for Thanksgiving, and both were exceptional. The lemon meringue had the perfect blend of sweetness and tartness with a beautifully fluffy topping. But the Pumpkin Streusel pie was truly unforgettable—creamy, warmly spiced pumpkin filling layered under a crisp, buttery streusel topping. It was absolutely delicious and is now my new favorite pie. This shop clearly puts so much care into their baking. I’ll definitely be returning!”

“love their coffee!! Will go back!”

“Valentines Day dinner with out of town friends did not disappoint! Our table was ready when we arrived at 6:40pm for our 6:45 reservation. Our server was at the table quickly and took drink orders promptly. Our order was placed and the appetizer came out very fast. We did wait for our entrees a bit but it wasn't excessive. Only complaint was we were not informed of any Specials which there were some we learned about later. Overall, especially for a Valentines Day and Saturday, great experience!”

“Typhoon Thai has delicious food with fresh ingredients and great flavors! The owners are very friendly and welcoming, which adds to the nice atmosphere. The only thing I noticed is that the portion sizes seem smaller compared to other Thai restaurants I’ve been to. That said, the quality makes up for it, and it’s still a great place to enjoy a tasty meal”

“I finally found the Chinese food I have been craving for several years. Steamed dumplings are tender and filled perfectly, not dry, perfectly moist with a very good dipping sauce. Orange Chicken, perfectly seasoned, moist and tender with the perfect orange sauce. House Lomien is full of perfectly cooked pork, chicken and shrimp. It was top notch. Back Choy is delicious and couldn’t be better. Rachel was the server and also took my order over the telephone. She is exceptionally courteous and thorough, repeating the order to ensure she got it right and making sure all of the condiments were in my bag. This was the best restaurant experience that I’ve had in a long time. The restaurant is small and there are tables if you want to eat in . It was very clean. They deserve the best rating I can give them.”

“watched the lady making pizzas on and off her phone in her back pocket and directly to the toppings. bare hands. called from the parking lot and they laughed at me when I asked if it was common practice that they dont wear gloves and she said yes, it goes through a 500 degree oven. like that matters. . after the customer service I'll stick to chain pizza”

“delishous food made to order not micro waved”
