Cody's Original Roadhouse - Ocala, FL

I wanted to post on your FB page but it wouldn't let me. We went for dinner on Friday, April 11 and had the best server. We sat outside and Jon was our server. He was excellent, very attentive and always nearby when we needed him. We were so happy to have such great service and highly recommend Jon. However, we were alittle disappointed in the entertainment. We were told they were suppose to start at 4:30 but when we arrived at 4:15, there was nobody there. They arrived shortly thereafter but didn't get setup and start to play until 5:25. So much for enjoying a drink and listening to music because we were ready to eat by the time they finally got setup. Since they (Las Vegas group) stated they would be coming back, maybe they could get there on time and play when stated. I digressed from the purpose of my post and that was to highly commend Jon as a server.

My wife and I were in Ocala this past weekend for the rodeo. we heard from word of mouth to go to Cody's if you want an outstanding steak. They weren't wrong. Our server, Ciara, was on point the entire time. From the moment we sat down till we were leaving the experience was phenomenal. Great food, great service and great atmosphere. I highly recommend giving Cody's a try if you are in Ocala.

Celebrated my husbands birthday here ! It was our first time at this location . And it was the best Cody’s we’ve ever have been to ! Our waitress was Ciara , she was fast , so sweet and made sure we had everything we needed . Definitely will be back :)

Steak chunks very over cooked. Manager came out. They can’t control the temperature of the steak chunks. We’re very overcooked and burnt. Watched staff eat. Had to wait for the manager Geoff to complete his meal so he would come speak to us. Yes, he sat in the main dining by the kitchen with another employee and others came out of the kitchen grabbed a bit here and there out of their baskets. Won’t be back. Sadly, we have always had good luck at Cody’s, very consistent. Not today, sorry Ocala! Spring Hill is amazing! Manager usually visits tables and is very friendly.

I attended Cody’s the other day with family for a birthday celebration in the patio area and wanted to sit on the other side of the patio due to the height of the table we had and my mother being disabled and was refused by Stevie which I believe was the manager but couldn’t tell by the disrespectful and obnoxious attitude presented on that day. This was not the first distasteful experience, as we also had a separate issue at this Cody’s due to raw, undercooked food and this was the cherry on top. Me and my family will no longer be attending this restaurant and were disappointed by the experiences we had here.

Food was salty! Waited 20 min to be acknowledge. The manager walked by me several times, and didn’t even get me any assistance. Whhewww, I am a server and would have been fired if I attended to my tables in that manner.

Service was not good. 23 minutes for drinks, 36 minutes for salad and rolls, 1 hr for meal. Wasn't told the fries were pre-seasoned when I asked for no salt.

Went with a friend who had not been to Codys before…. We both ordered sandwiches with the vegetable of the day…. The mixed veggies came out almost raw, not even warm and the Reuben sandwich I had was terrible…. The meat was very dried out and very little sauerkraut…. My friend asked for a wrap and it came as a sandwich…. Her meat looked like plain old deli meat… We complained and the manager didn’t even come to talk with us…. The waitress, Reilly, was very sweet and embarrassed…. Said she told the manager and was going to take the half of sandwich back to show them the dried out meat…. Needless too say we will not be coming back and be sure I will tell my friends of the poor management and food….

Went there with my wife on Saturday because I was craving a Country Fried Steak. First time ever seeing one with brown gravy. Stupidest idea ever! Onion rings were difficult to eat because they were in the fryer too long. The salad was made from the heart of head of lettuce.
Oh and we stood at the front door 15 minutes waiting to be seated, and no they weren't busy.

When there tonight to have the French onion soup. Got so disappointed because the soup had hardly any onion, bread or cheese. The waitress was very nice but disappointed with the soup

Food is good, atmosphere is good but the service is absolutely horrendous. I’ve been here a total of about 6 times and every time the service is horrible. I’m here right now sitting at the table been waiting about a hour and a half and still haven’t received my food. My sons came about 40 minutes ago and yet me and my wife has still yet to come. The waiters never pay attention to anybody other than parties and older people. The last time I was here I gave the manager a $50 tip on a $30 bill because the waiter ignored me the whole time and I asked to speak to a manager who waited on us instead. This time our waitress hasn’t been here at all. I’m over it.
