“I love Culvers and it is one of the places I feel comfortable eating because I am gluten intolerant. I am also allergic to sea salt and yesterday Devon was very helpful and cheacked to make sure my food was prepared without any sea salt. I enjoyed my meal!“

“We’ve been going to Glory Days in Lecanto ever since it opened. We’ve never had a bad meal nor have we had bad service. We would, however, like to give Tracy, a greeter and goodwill ambassador, a shoutout. She is an excellent representation of what a hostess/employee/helper should be. She always wears a smile, is knowledgeable, and takes excellent care of the customers. If I could I would clone her!“

“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 ⭐️“

“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!“

“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!“

“An absolutely amazing place to grab a bite. Awesome food, staff and owner. The Haddock is delic!“

“Awesome burger and potato skins. Lacey was great, she recommended a few spots for me to check out to fish while I’m in town that wasn’t a charter boat…. Drinks were cold and hit hard. Great spot. Just wanted I needed on my trip.“

“My wife and I frequently dine at the Margarita Grill. We thoroughly enjoy our outing there. The food is delicious and plentiful. Many options to choose from. Service has always been Good. Very nice atmosphere and dining inside our outside is available.“

“Great food at very fair prices. You would expect to pay more at this kind of location, so I was very happy about pricing. I got the fried chicken sandwich and my wife got the grilled chicken sandwich. The grilled chicken was good, the fried chicken would beat most restaurants easily. Everything was hot and fresh. You should definitely grab a meal while you're there and I would strongly recommend you go with the fried chicken sandwich (I had the tater tots for a side and they were well done also)“

“Fun favorite here in Beverly hills. Generous portions great variety of menu items Beverly hills. Taya helpful server crunchy waffles wow“

“This place has been around forever, and they pretty much are known throughout the county for their corn dogs. It's a little food stand at the flea market, similar to what you would find at a carnival, and looks a little shady if you never gotten the food from here. While they do have other offerings on the menu, your best bet is too stick to the corn dogs and lemon shake ups. The lemon shake ups have just the right amount of tart and sweetness to them, and after you're finished drinking it, just add more water, and you get a second lemonade, though not as strong. From what I can tell, they fry the corn dogs twice. Once to cook, and again to either reheat them and/or add a little more crispiness to the dogs. You can get the with mustard and/or ketchup, but just be aware they brush the condiments on the dogs. The hot dogs they use are not the more expensive all beef variety, but somehow, it all manages to come out tasting delicious. Definitely an obligatory stop if you hit the flea market, just know they tend to have a long line. Great prices, nice people, tasty corn dogs.“

“Food quality change? Not 100% sure but I can tell you the kids burgers are different than I used to be. They used to be hand patty and now they are premade. Brussels sprouts are good however they used to come with the sauce on them and now they do not.
$14 for kids burger with two dollar tip.“

“Best Breakfast I had in a long Time.. Food was good, service was GREAT. Will go back alot .....“

“I don’t frequent this side of citrus county but needed a breakfast spot the other day. Biscuits and gravy is my jam so I picked this place. Beautiful setup that looks small but feels spacious when you walk in. Very comfortable environment that’s decorated nicely. My table all enjoyed different plates. I got the Trooper. Delicious, home made biscuits and gravy, hash browns that were cooked crispy the way they should, scrambled eggs and bacon. It was cooked to perfection. The other meals had the same round of applause from my friends. Looking forward to trying their Chef’s Table dinner on Friday nights and to catch lunch one of these days. If you’re an east sider, we have great options, but this place is worth the drive! Thank you Sally for the wonderful customer service and ever full cup of coffee and thank you Mike for the wonderful food. Great team, great restaurant!“

“We love the Tiki Bar. Great atmosphere, surrounded by Palms and great food. So happy to finally be here at Citrus Hills.“

“First and foremost I have to say, Tyler (one of the staff members) always makes our stop a better experience. He is courteous and always thanking us for coming in. He is super respectful, responsive and ALWAYS makes things right if anything goes wrong. What a great asset to the company. My 26 yr old daughter absolutely loves the crawfish (absolutely the best around). My wife tears up the crab and shrimp in the Cajun Special (seafood boil). They are always better than any other restaurant around. We have always been pleased!!! And Tyler is the plus thank makes us come back in!!!!“

“Went back to Ruby Tuesday after 14 months and had a great experience. Our waitress Katy was very friendly and took great care of our party of five. Keep up the outstanding work Katy.“

“My husband and I were passing through and seen “Oysters” which happens to be our favorite food. We stopped and were not disappointed. They had a tempting Valentines special but my heart was set on fried oysters. I will definitely be back next time I am passing through.“

“Best sports bar in citrus county. Great prices and great service and staff 5 stars“

“Jenna at the bar is the best...friendly...great service...always goes out of her way to give us special attention...we will be back every week...“

“I do recommend it if the staff can work the hours that are on the door and instead closing over an hour early. not cool to drive to a restated the staff rudely say they are closed over an hour early and not even say thank you. I hope in the future these thing will not happen. lot of people were turned a way so I am sure they were not very happy as well.“

“We usually dont complain about our meals but Kim's has to be the worst breakfast place in citrus county. We order our drinks which was a small oj and a diet coke and the oj was no bigger than a salt Shaker and a LARGE milk . Our food was nothing crazy cornedbeef hash well done potatoes well done with a biscut and a side of gravy along with a southern omelette i asked to replace the peppers with mushrooms and the waitress said there would be a up charge (whatever no biggie but dumb) potatoes well done and pancakes. Nothing was well done, my pancakes were so rubbery they seem like they came out of a microwave and my diet coke sat empty until my husband had to ask. The waitress who took our order never came back to check on us and like the prior person's comment our check was at our table immediately.We did say something while we were there and the best they could do is take 2 bucks off our meal. The money isnt the issue, its the fact they take no pride in their resturant. I dont understand how the place was full. We are locals and love our breakfast spots but unfortunately there is nothing they could do to make us return.“

“Ashton was our group’s server and she handled about 23 of us by herself. She definitely is cut out for customer service as her interaction and communication was impressive. She was organized while remaining personable, professional and attentive to our needs. I’d return just because of her but need to share that the food was excellent. I had the Italian Grinder Salad and it was huge! Can’t wait to take hubby there as they have something for everyone’s taste.“

“From the minute you pull in lot-what a breath of fresh air in this town. Awesome service with a smile. Suggestions on the food. Clean & to me best of all quiet so you can talk! NO TV'S NO LOUD MUSIC. Great food. Will go back very soon!!! .“

“First time coming there on Friday actually to watch my landlord band play HWY 94 and decided to grab a bite while I was there. Customer service was amazing and atmosphere was as equal. The food was amazing and fresh. I would and will come back again.“

“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!“

“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 !“

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

“I really love this place. I stop by all the time for lunch and dinner. The food is always hot and fresh and Amy always greets me with a smile and provides great service. This is my go-to chinese takeout place whenever I'm on this side of the county but have been finding myself driving the distance to get great food.“

“We decided to bring Dad to Beef's for Father's day lunch today and I'm glad we did! Even though they were busy, we didn't want for anything. The waitresses took wonderful care of us. Friendly and quick!
Our food was awesome as well. The fish and chips were great and the crispy chicken bowl was also very good. And, without knowing it Dad got $14 off his meal, basically free, winner winner chicken dinner!
Thanks Beef's for a great lunch Dad!!!“

“I had absolutely the best meal I’ve had in a long time from this fine establishment this evening. I enjoyed the trio, my choices were hot honey boneless wings, chicken quesadilla, and the wonton tacos. When I say this meal came to me perfect, I mean it. The presentation was excellent, the taste was outstanding for every item and I would definitely order again !! Thank you Applebees staff Inverness
Florida !“
