If you are looking for a good stick to your ribs down-home southern cooking made with love, you have got to go to Southern Palate in Dunnellon, Florida. It is a small quaint restaurant where when you walk in, you are welcomed like family. Only open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday for lunch, starting at 11 am until the food runs out. We got there around 2 p.m., and some of the sides were very limited. Hubby had the meatloaf with rice that had Oxtail gravy poured over it, heavenly. Also, he got mac and cheese and great northern beans. I had the pork loin with rice. It had the pan drippings from the pork over it. The mac cheese,yum, and tried the tomatoes and okra, first time not bad. Everything was seasoned perfectly and tasted fabulous. We couldn't shovel it in fast enough.Of course, we had to try out the desserts, 4 to be exact, don't judge. The lemon cake, the pound cake, the mixed berry pie, and the buttermilk pie. We thought we had gone to heaven with every bite. So go see Angie B to get some delicious food and stay a while for the company.

As busy as this place is and as loved as the owner is I still think this restaurant is sooooo under rated. If you are out there Guy Fieri, it's SOUTHERN PALATE! Food is incredible.

Excellent food and let me take a plate home for what I didn’t have at lunch. Oh! Beyond excellent, it encompasses the best of the best from NOLA, Big Sip, SC, GE in taste, seasoning,and love. When I hit the lottery will expose more of the world to her love of food and history.

We came across Southern Palate Restaurant & Catering while trying to find solace in the aftermath of Hurricane Milton. The first real food we’ve had in days. Not only was it the ABSOLUTELY AMAZING the owner Angie B is a beautiful soul. We had ox tails, fried pork chops, fried chicken, mac & cheese, and green beans… my husband had sweet potato pie, oh, i can’t forget the sweet tea. I can attest she makes the best ox tails (and everything else). I highly recommend Angie B’s cooking!!!!
