“Exquisite. I had the Mango Pineapple Chicken and the flavors were perfectly blended. The BLT was huge with the best bread you could imagine. For dessert the peach ginger pie, again perfect and not so sweet so you could actually taste the peaches and ginger blended together. I wasn't just amazed but totally blown away by how good Primary Tavern is. I would recommend whole heartedly.“

“I don’t go out often (or at all) but when I do I love hitting up bankstreet! It’s in a great location, awesome drinks, always something new to try, I love their sweet thai chicken wings! Im a person of comfort so my bartender is always Mario, super funny, super sweet, brings such a great energy even during a rush! He’s truly awesome and would recommend going to him if you just had a day and need someone to talk and grab a drink!“

“Been there twice in the last month. Love their food and service. The 30 minute call ahead is wonderful. I had the Cajun seared ahi tuna last time and it was perfect. Asked for (spicy stuff on the side) Husband has had salmon twice. Best he has ever had. Drink prices are also reasonable. Highly recommend!!“

“We had a wonderful time! Service and Food was Amazing. We will be back definitely.“

“One of the best places in Ocala to go have a scotch and a cigar. All the patrons are super nice and everybody talks to one another. The bartenders behind the counter are super kind and attentive. My choice to go out in Ocala when I want to smoke a cigar and have a drink and a public place. Totally unique...“

“Stopped into O’Malley’s Alley downtown and it’s a solid Irish-pub kind of night. The place has that old-school bar feel with a big, comfortable space, and it’s easy to end up staying longer than you planned—especially if there’s live music going. Drinks were poured well and the bartenders were friendly once you got their attention. Food is classic pub stuff; oysters and snacks are the move if you’re sharing. Only downside is that when it’s busy it gets loud and crowded fast, and service can slow down a bit.“

“Super awesome place, great vibe and amazing food. Sliders are 💯. Definitely going to try the whole menu, staff is great.“

“This place is what you call finding a diamond in the rough. The place may be not that great look at. But the girls make it worth it. You should definitely come see for yourself.“

“On December 10th I ordered a reuban sandwich. The waitress informed me pickles no longer came with the sandwich it was now considerd one of your sides. The reuban came with big chunks of fat and the meat must have been warmed on the grill because they were browned, and the fries were cold. I informed the waitress and a stern looking women came out of the kitchen and asked 'what else was wrong?' and left without another word said. I paid the bill and left. Horrible“

““Diane, George, Freddy...What an Outstanding team!” johnfjohnston The Villages, Florida Diane, George, Freddy...What an Outstanding team! Diane was the enthusiastic voice on the phone when making reservations for six for the Sunday brunch. She was the delightfully welcoming hostess when the party arrived. George, as other reviews have attested, was flawless: engaging, attentive, approaching his tasks as a performing art...terrific! Freddy Lopez, the manager, took great pride in the staff and offerings from the kitchen. He described changes soon to be made. The name will be something like "Marketplace Kitchen and Bar", an unfortunate image of an older shopper with shopping bags full of groceries sitting nursing a beer at the bar. Food was very good, although NOTHING except the salad dressings had labels. Individuals will allergies would need ask or simply avoid any item which was not entirely identifiable. Indeed a hotel pan of Creole fish could not be identified by two members on the line. It was Mr. Lopez who solved the mystery.“

“Don't usually do reviews BUT, I haven't been to a Chili's in over 2 years.
This Chili's exceeded all expectations on every level.
I had the 1/2 rack and jalapeños sausage combo.
The ribs were absolutely perfect, not the overcooked fall off the bone but the tender bite to the bone and clean to the bone. Tender, very meaty and moist.
Thank you to the two young ladies at the bar that served us and the kitchen staff and managers that made it happen.
You certainly changed my opinion of the Chili's of previous experiences.
We were there Feb 27,2026 around 7:30 ish.“
