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!”

“We were looking for a lunch spot along N. Citrus and stopped in. Never know what you may experience. It was great! Liked the cozy atmosphere and attentive but not over the top service. The haddock was the best. It's small gem.”

“Today was my second visit to the Crystal River location. Service , environmental, and food were nothing less than phenomenal! Mr. Jimmy, the owner, makes your entire visit feeling like you’re with family. The hospitality and amazing service are second to none! Can’t wait for my next visit!”

“Amber is just one of the most entertaining and fantastic mixologist that you’re ever gonna find in Crystal River or in the surrounding state”

“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 ⭐️”

“Hadn't been there since new owners. Being from R.I. I had finally found a seafood place with fish and chips like home. Unfortunately what I got today was far from it.”

“Was a fan of this restraunt at least one day a week we ate there. Was not pleased when we last went. Waitress forgot our request with our order. My husbands order was half eaten by the time mine arrived. Ask for the male waiter he is not forgetful.. probably will not be back.”

“Oh how I miss this place!❤❤❤”

“Great food and great service. I’m a chef from Miami and I was in the area for Labor Day weekend visiting the springs. I’m glad I chose this place. My children really enjoyed the food as well.”

“Food always good , service was prompt and Liked sitting at a table by window . Only downside Very noisy hard to hold a conversation!”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We accidentally stumbled upon Guyer's Doughnuts, and it turned out to be the highlight of our day! This charming doughnut and ice cream shop is not only spotlessly clean but also boasts some of the friendliest staff you'll ever meet. The owners themselves greeted us warmly, ensuring that everything was perfect, and even offered us a delightful sample! The apple pie sundae we tried was out of this world. The combination of fresh doughnuts and the creamiest, most delicious ice cream left us speechless. Normally, I'm not a fan of scooped ice cream, but this was softer and more flavorful than any soft serve I've had. If you're in the area, do yourself a favor and visit Guyer's Doughnuts. You won't regret it! Five stars all the way!”

“Excellent ice cream and unique flavors.”

“Me and my husband just stopped by and didn’t realize they were closed. The lady was so nice and still let us get something and let me tell you their cold pressed juice is amazing! Truly blessed and felt so refreshed! We wanted to turn around and get more! 🙌”

Thank You Mimis we will be doing buisness in the future”

“Wonderful service from the moment we walked in the door. Very friendly. The fajitas were delicious!”

“My hubby remembered coming to this same location many years ago and the food was good. We don't know if it's under the same ownership.
No lie it was a little pricey for us. My husband's Sea Bass was $52. but my hearing isn't always the best and I thought our server said $42..
Oh well, I can't really complain because my husband said that it was THE BEST Sea Bass that he'd ever had at a restaurant. The sea bass was cooked absolutely perfectly and the serving size was much larger than normally offered at a restaurant. He was so pleasantly surprised and pleased at how good it was.
The mash potatoes were good to both of us and the brussel sprouts were excellent as well. I got the steak that was on special and it was large enough to share a good portion with my husband without missing it.
We topped off by splitting a piece key lime pie.
Our server was excellent and very attentive. I wish I could remember her name!
We would definitely return if we lived closer but, we'll be sure to come back if we're ever in the general area.
I've got to add, some people dress up and some don't so come how you want.”

“Clara was fantastic. Breakfast was yummy!”

“Stopped in here for a quick breakfast and we weren't disappointed! Had a breakfast Cuban and a bacon, egg, cheese biscuit. Both were delicious! The biscuit was light and fluffy, and everything was cooked just right. Plus, the prices were fabulous! I highly recommend stopping at this little shop on the way to the little beach or fishing...or whenever!”

“Love the teas.we look forward to our “ready” every week”

“My lady and I had a spectacular dinner here last night. The food was outstanding, the environment welcoming and the staff was amazing. Highly recommend!”

“Such a great location & wonderful customer service”

“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”

“Nicole was an exceptional server! I didn't have to ask for anything, she just anticipated what I needed. A very pleasant experience. If I was in charge of training new servers Nicole would be my example.”

“Of course the coffee was great… it’s Starbucks! But we were super impressed with the staff from walking in the door. Totally greeting everyone with a smile, they were friendly and welcoming. Such a great energy, especially early in the morning. The shop is clean and awesome. A highly recommend stop!”

“It's really nice not having to drive far for great Vietnamese food!”

“Authentic Italian! Fresh ingredients! Friendly service! Homemade pastas! I will be back again!”

“Amy’s on the Avenue is an absolute hidden gem in Crystal River and a must-go spot for breakfast! You can really tell the care that goes into each item, especially the baked goods. The highlight was when Joe came out with a tray of fresh cinnamon rolls straight from the oven… unreal. On top of the amazing food, the entire staff made us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we walked in. Friendly, cozy, and delicious — this place is a must go place!”

“We are from North Carolina and chose Brother's Pizza or our last night in Crystal River. My 9 year old loved his small cheese pizza and bread sticks! The dough tastes fantastic and is freshly made. We ordered the steak and mushroom salad and the portions were huge! Our server Ryan was very personable and helpful. If we come to Crystal River again we'll definitely be back!”

“delishous food made to order not micro waved”

“Have eaten here several times and always have a good experience. The food is properly seasoned when I order hot dishes, she gives you choices on how hot you want it. The times she gives for your order to ready is very close. I like to order food, shop at ALDI and return.”

“Little Caesars I really like but they did not get the five-star rating because they have not had the bacon wrap pizza crust in so long That should be on their regular menu all year long That is excellent pizza”

“Our group of 18 women went for lunch and the service and food were amazing! The weather was not great but they made sure we were out of the weather. The sun came out towards the end of our lunch and made our time perfect! Highly recommend!”

“Great food, absolutely the best hoagies around!!!!”

“We have been using this store for the past several years. We order pizza,monthly sometimes twice, ordering just a few to ordering 20plus at one time. We have NEVER been disappointed. The pizzas are always cooked perfectly, made correctly and delivered warm and with a smile. Marc, the manager, is always very attentive to the details, communicates with us along the way and goes above and beyond with special request made. Everyone we have spoken to have been helpful and patient. Very thankful this store and team is near by to assist with all of our pizza needs!!”

“There Sat. afternoon about 4 p.m. wonderful time, good food. Very busy but staff working hard to please.”

“We went for dinner, our server was a girl named Katie. She was very polite and attentive, and although she stated she was knew to chilis, you could tell this wasn’t her first go around serving customers. The food was delicious, no complaints at all. The chicken bacon ranch nachos are fire !”

“1st time there. I chatted with someone on their Facebook page about a special they posted on a past Saturday and asked if that was always on Saturday. The he person said they they rotate specials and there is a different one on this Saturday. I said thats ok no big deal. The person said that they usually have the items for the special usually available so if I did want it they could accommodate me. I said you don't have to do that but the instisded they would have no problem and just tell the server. Speaking of server. Sheri was amazing she was very very nice and made us feel very welcome at the restaurant. She did everything right and I think she was a fantastic server. The food was sooo good. We will definitely be coming back and I will be putting good words out for others to enjoy.”
