The Yearling Restaurant is a place of tranquility and beauty, located in Hawthorne, just a short drive from Gainesville, Florida. The rustic and authentic old Florida decor gives a special touch to the dining experience, surrounded by taxidermy, antiques, and vintage books. The atmosphere is filled with historic nostalgia and live music, creating a wonderful ambiance. The restaurant is cool with all sorts of books and whatnot. Lots of art from locals that was pretty interesting. The menu offers delicious Southern meals, with highlights like fried green tomatoes and cheese grits, as well as dishes such as gator and venison. The gator bites were so tender and the sauce was delicious. The chicken breast was great and they have excellent sweet tea. The salad was great too. Everything was great. The portions are generous and satisfying, perfect for a filling meal. The staff is attentive, friendly, and efficient, ensuring a pleasant dining experience for all guests. The staff and bartender are great. Ice cold beer in the lounge. Guests can appreciate the unique decor and the relaxed pace of service, making it a memorable dining experience. The grouper sandwich was fresh and tasty and the onion rings were perfect! This is the place to get the best Amaretto Sour!
