So delicious! Excellent service from everyone, especially our server Shaun. He was so thorough and answered all our questions. The Cedar Key clams were to die for! I had the scallops and my husband had the burger for dinner- so freaking amazing ! I can’t say enough about this place! The owner was walking through the dining room checking on everyone, greeting everyone - thank you Carol for an exceptional experience!
Wow! What an amazing experience! From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty! We had reservations but arrived early so we could sit at the bar for a glass of wine- the bartenders were phenomenal! Once we were seated, our server Shaun was exceptional. He went through every item on the menu, answered all our questions (and we probably asked way too many!)OMG the Cedar Key Clams - so delicious I was tempted to drink
✨ Magical Dining at The Pinery ✨
My husband and I finally made it to The Pinery last night for the first time, and WOW—what a gem along Lake Ivanhoe.
Ambiance: Elegant yet approachable with a chic mid-century modern vibe. We sat in a spacious circular booth that gave us a perfect view of the dining room and glimpses of the bar. It’s the kind of spot that feels equally right for date night or a laid-back dinner with friends.

The restaurant is known for its great atmosphere, which is warm, modern, and inviting, making it suitable for parties or a couple's night out. The food is delicious and beautifully prepared, with many guests enjoying dishes like the Brie Fondue, the steamy hot and creamy crab dip, and the mushroom truffle risotto. The salmon is also a popular choice. For dessert, the brown butter cake is delightfully moist and magical. The restaurant provides both indoor and outdoor seating, with complimentary valet parking. The service is outstanding, well-timed, and seamless from start to finish. Guests recommend this place for date night or for small groups to have easy conversations over a great meal with drinks. They praise the overall magical dining experience, noting that the pork belly tacos are crispy and the linguine is seasoned perfectly. The shrimp and clam perloo has jambalaya vibes, and the pineapple upside-down bread pudding is a perfect sweet finish.
