    Went for a drive and ended up in the Villages at Sumter landing did a walk about which was really cool. Got hungry decided to eat here because it was not extremely busy. Like the atmosphere with all the Route 66 deco. We got some appetizers pub food onion rings, grouper bites, which were great and fried lol. Coleslaw was not bad either. Service was fine surprised it's not busier than it was.

    The food is always great here. I can see how sometimes there can be issues, but that's the human way. Stuff happens. I order food every time I perform here and it's always been fine. The appetizer spuds are off the hook delish.

    Tasty, tender Baby Back Ribs.

    Our server Ciara was very busy but she still gave us excellent service with a winning smile...Ms. Personality+ Mike and I both had 1/2 racks of yummy, tender baby back ribs...delish! Bonus: my favorite cocktail, an Old Fashion, was made correctly. We sat out in the screened in veranda listening to the great music while we enjoyed our evening out.

    Overworked staff and sub-quality food. Will not go back. Two for one beer is the only offer that is worth taking.

    I took my wife here for our 1st experience here, ( late Valentines dinner) Sunday February 15,…read more2026. The ambiance was wonderful, not too dark, not too bright! Chatter noise was low enough Iwe could reasonably talk together! She started with a french onion soup, steamy and thick, obviously homemade!! I had a lobster bisque with baquettes. She then chose the chicken fried steak with mash potatoes & green beans. I had the braised short ribs Mirepoix, garlic mash potatoes & csteamed carrots with short rib reduction! We topped the night off with a delightful PRINCESS DIANA'S Taste of Ocala award winning Bruleed Bread Pudding w/ fresh berries & Amaretto , Almonds!! Btw, the Chicken fried steak is offered every Sunday. Our server, Joanne, was excellent and very knowledgeable!! The only downside was about 3 items unavailable due to heavy traffic on Valentine's Day on Saturday. The tables were candlelit, clean, and seating was comfortable. I wont mention our coke & tea, we just dont imbibe in alcoholic drinks. But it appeared they had a wide assortment of choices!! I recommend THE BRAISED ONION!!

We got sat right away and greeted by our server. Our server was nice and helpful with the menu. We ordered fish n chips, Hawaiian salad, pow pow chicken, and chicken picatta. The salad came out with fresh ingredients and the dressing was delicious. The rest of the food was not good. The pow pow chicken was mostly breading and no chicken. The few small pieces of chicken we did have were way over cooked. The fish and chips had the same problem - mostly breading and no fish. Also, they don't have tartar sauce. I've never been to a place that sells fish n chips that doesn't have tartar sauce. The dining area is an open concept. There were some plants spread around the place is clean. Over all, the server was nice but the food wasn't very good. I wouldn't recommend eating there. We will try someplace else next time we are in town.

    I was in the area with a friend and his daughter. We visited Silver Springs and were ready for…read morelunch. His daughter said she wanted a burger and we found this spot. There are a few tables outside, right by the door. There are signs that make it clear they are non smoking tables. We decided to eat inside, were seated right away and our server came quickly. She told us what some of the popular burgers were and we made our selections based on that. I had the Jamaican burger cooked medium. This burger was cooked perfectly, had good flavor, was topped with a sweet and spicy jerk sauce. It was everything that I expected. My friend had the Brie burger and his daughter had the smash burger and they both said those burgers were very good as well. Our server was attentive to our needs throughout our meal. I would definitely go back again.

    We showed up tonight to celebrate my birthday (today), my hubby's (Monday) and our daughter in…read morelaw's (this past Thursday). Couldn't think of a better place to eat, drink and be merry at! Tonight was "trivia night", which, while we didn't play, we did enjoy trying to guess the answers. Our grand daughter's face was a big "O" of amazement when realizing the upper tables were enjoying roasting their marshmallows at their table...when she was told they were making s'mores...she went nuts! She's so excited to get tableside s'mores! My wings were even better than they were last time since there was an addition of seasonings sprinkled on them along with the dill pickles, but unfortunately, our cheeseburger pizza suffered from not having enough mustard and ketchup base to it, the tomatoes were enormous chunks and so were red onions. It made it very difficult to eat without things falling all over your clothing since they were such huge chunks on top of the tiny pieces of pizza. My husband got the steak bomb sub, son got a pepperoni Stromboli, daughter in law got the Sharon's Brie burger, grand daughter the child's cheeseburger and fries. Our apps were the garlic knots, mild wings (10) and fried cheese curds with sriracha ranch dipping sauce. Everything was okay, except that it took forever for everything to come out, compared to our first visit. Even our s'mores seemed to take forever. The quickest part of the whole visit was the bill . The fella that waited on us the first time was on point. Not saying that the young lady waiting on us was rude or anything, but I think she was trying to do too many things at once and some things just fell by the wayside. Last visit we came in on a Saturday as well, but perhaps some people are just better at multitasking? I don't know. This time, our bill was over $200 with tip, but we still brought home food again. Not a lot compared to the last time, only 2 little pickle wings (I still can't get enough of those darn things!) and maybe 4 slices of pizza. My husband's loaded tots weren't to his liking, so there's something even for the dog tomorrow We may stay away for awhile and see if they manage to work out some kinks. If anything, the best rule is consistency. If the food preparation is not consistent every time you go to eat there, there's a problem. There should be NO deviation just because someone else is cooking it. All recipes should be the same. Twice we've ordered the same items and they've been different. I still recommend this place for great vibes, cocktails, food and the tableside s'mores. There's just nowhere else like it!

The place is built out of a couple of shipping containers, or at least made to look as if it were made out of said containers. Upon closer inspection they are more of a facade. Still, a neat concept, and it wouldn't surprise me if the original location (or first couple of locations) were made from actual shipping containers until they went corporate. Ordering is simple. They only do one main thing, which is the burgers (or sliders). Yes, they have fries and drinks, but that is it. Since the options are so slim, there really wasn't much of a choice... you're getting a burger and/or fries. Service was fine... nothing to write home about, nothing exceptional. It is the typical fast food experience in that regard. The food? Eh. Frankly, the burgers are not that great, though the waffle fries are decent. The drink selection is very typical Coke product lineup. I get it... Coke and Pepsi are very popular and people want them... but can we get a fast food restaurant that does something a little different? What I would give to find a fast food place that serves Nehi, Blenheim's, or Henry Weinhard's... heck, I would take Bundaberg root beer just for that wonderful ginger flavor they throw in! Alas, I get away from the subject at hand... The burgers are not great, the waffle fries are decent, but in all I just don't see the need for this place. Realistically I give the burgers two stars, the waffle fries four, and that would average out to a three except the burgers were on the pricey side for what you get, so a two is in order.
