“We've been coming here a number of times over the years. Really enjoyed the food so last year we had a chance to purchase their gift cards on Black Friday you buy a $50 gift card and get a $25 gift card free. So I purchased $150 in gift cards, and got $75 and free gift cards. They said that they never expire which was awesome which is why I purchased a large quantity because we planned on going back often. Well things have come up and we have not made it as much as we had planned. we went in to order yesterday only to find out that they no longer honor half the gift cards that we were given, saying they were only good for 90 days. That's not the stipulation we got when we purchased them so now we're out $75 in the free gift cards. This is horrible business practice, and once I use my pre-purchase gift cards we will not be coming back here again unless this is rectified. the manager started that she cannot do anything about it. I got the number for the owner and he has not returned my call. A very sad way to treat your customers“

“Beautiful place my family and I were celebrating my nephews birthday. it’s a great place to celebrate a special day. Food was excellent. Special thanks to Manager Abby ,sever Jordan Debalina and all staff was mind blowing Service . I really appreciate you.❤️❤️“

“up until yesterday September the 20th I would have recommended everything! after the horrible meal we picked up and took home I would not recommend Red lobster to anyone! we took home a spoiled smelly mushroom seafood appetizer plus two meals and biscuits and so forth. the seafood mushroom appetizer was rancid how they would put it out I have no idea and of course no one answers the phone to help me“

“I'm a truck driver from Metro Atlanta, I made a delivery close by and wanted some good food, I found OD"s..
The service was great, the staff/ owner was great, food was awesome,
I got curry goat, sorrel, festival, beef soup,...I definitely recommend stopping there, I'm bringing my family back“

“My kids love it there. Food was amazing very large proportion worth the money . My chicken n broccoli was uncooked , you can taste the blood from the chicken, I told them about it and they took it back toss it up and is was perfectly enjoyable.“

“I don't usually go out of my way to leave reviews, but this place deserves the 5 stars, my coworkers introduced me to ANF and since then this is the only spot I go to for a quick lunch or dinner after work, don't be fooled by the drive thru, this place serves made to order excellent food at a great price (Seriously)! It's also nice that everyone is super friendly, if you got Angie or Sief taking your order you can be sure to have a 5 star experience.
(I recommend the chicken sub, it's fire!)“

“We enjoyed our early Monday supper very much. We had Shrimp and Fajita Quesadillas, Fish Tacos and a Coctel de Camerones.

Only one meal was thought to be less than very good which was the Shrimp Quesadilla. She felt that the shrimp needed to be sautéd to add flavor.

The restaurant itself was a bit rough. We had to have the server engineer the table legs so the drinks did not spill from the wobble. Looking around we saw many tables had that issue.

The mariachi music was loud enough that the server had difficulty taking our order. There were some large screen TV’s that had some horse race results that remained unchanged until just before we left when a race came on. Yee Haw“

“Leah/Alisha was a fantastic waitress with her recommendations and promptness (but without going over the top) - great personality too!

Foood was fabulous; steak cooked to perfection and pasta dishes great.

Great wine list too.

Highly recommend!

Parking: Plenty of space, even though busy“

“I been looking for raw oysters could not find non in ocala. But this place has them you can buy half of bag for 35 dollars or you can buy a hole bag for 70 dollars and they always have them.Or if you want less they have them they will even stem them for you“

“Hanging out on the back patio was very cool. The bartender was great (forgot his name) but he took great care of our group (10 of us) and made sure our drinks were full and we were sitting away from the bar. We ordered food and it was awesome. I had mudbugs (crawfish) and smoked fish dip. I will definitely make this place one of my must to stops.“
