“Visited recently for some girl time with my friends. Our waiter Sarah was awesome. The food was good too. We talked and laughed, cried and prayed as friends at the table. The manager must’ve noticed so he brought us napkins for our tears & some dessert. Because desert always makes you feel better. lol It was the kindest sweetest jester I’ve ever felt at a restaurant. If you go on a Sunday try the shrimp and grits too. It was good. 🥰“

“Stephanie was absolutely fantastic! From the moment we sat down, she was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. Her drink recommendations were spot-on, and everything was made perfectly. You can tell she truly cares about her guests and takes pride in her craft. She made our experience memorable, and we’ll definitely be back because of her!“

“We are regulars, in for lunch every week. Food is always great. Restaurant is always clean. We love Nicole. She always makes us feel at home. She goes out of her way to make us feel welcomed.

“Our favorite place to eat as a family. They are the friendliest crew, and the food is amazing. We always leave happy and full.“

“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“

“Delicious fajitas!! And really superb service. I was a bit pressed for time as I mentioned to my server, my meal came quickly and the gentleman who assisted me even even kept track of my time, letting me know there was plenty of time to enjoy the meal. Highly recommended.“

“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!!“

“Franco’s Italian Restaurant in Ocala is absolutely amazing! The food is delicious, portions are very large, and the prices are great for the quality you get. The staff is wonderful—very friendly and welcoming. Our server (Ashley) was extremely knowledgeable about the entire menu, which made ordering easy and enjoyable. The food came out fast and hot, and everything was perfectly prepared. We will definitely be recommending Franco’s and will be back again!“

“Lindsay was our waitress and was outstanding! Food was delicious. Will be back“

“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“

“Went to the drive-thru and ordered the Grouper fish sandwich. Hot fresh and delicious. I was pleasantly surprised and glad I found this place. They give you a large piece of fish on a hot toasted bun(smart) with L.T.& pickle, you choose the sauce. Large variety. 😲 Very Good go enjoy.“

“Dinner tonight was fabulous. They didn’t have mozzarella sticks so that was a little disappointing but the quality of everything they did have made up for it. From the bread all the way to the pasta, everything was fresh and tasty and so filling! We had to take half of all of our meals home. This location really is top notch.“

“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.“
