With every bite, there is purity, richness density and clearly defined flavors. It is actually hard to properly describe just how good these brownies and cookies are. I would give them 10 Stars if possible. If you are hungry, look them up.

I was surprised to find Korean food at all in Ocala. I was thrilled to come across Haeorum. A…read morefriend and I went together for lunch on a Wednesday. It's in a really nondescript location, tucked away in an old gas station store. The store was a combination of hot food and some pantry staples like gochugaru and ramen. I ordered the Hot Bob, which was the spicy pork shoulder over rice. It was so delicious. We shared a kimchi pancake - it was a really sizable pancake but I wish it had a bit more flavor. Overall really happy with this place. I'm definitely coming back soon.

I was looking for spots to check out in Ocala and had stumbled upon this place. After reading the…read morereviews, I had to see why this place was so highly rated. This is located inside a gas station, so when you enter it looks like a regular convenience/gas station, but then you see the menu with all the dishes they offer. They had so many delicious items on the menu, but I only went with the Japchae. I didn't wait long, it took about 15 minutes and while I was there, I got to look around and noticed all the Korean products around the store. Once I got my food, I sat at the tables they have in a corner and got quite a bit of food. It's a good serving. After trying the Japchae, I understand now why this spot is so highly rated. The Japchae was well seasoned came with a lot of delicious veggies and a side of rice. If this spot was close by I would eat there on a weekly basis! Really great spot to check out when in Ocala.

We were on their bottom floor patio (which was lovely) but I did spy that they have a rooftop patio as well (what's not to love?!?). Everything from the food to the cocktails to the service was exemplary. For my cocktail I got their Old Colonel's Smoking Gun which was their twist on an old fashioned and was delightful. For my entree, I got their salmon entree. It's glazed and comes with a size of their crispy brussels and cheesy grits. The brussels were delish and their cheesy grits rank among some of the best I've had with sharp cheddar giving them the perfect flavor kick. The atmosphere was so pleasant. It's definitely the sort of spot you'll feel tempted to linger. Get to it!

Casita Luna is an absolute gem in Ocala. The tacos here are amazing. I tried the al pastor,…read morechicken, and asada, and all of them were great. The chicken and al pastor were my favorites and super flavorful. The house made green and red salsas really take everything to the next level. Both are fresh and bold. I also tried my husbands burrito and it was huge and so good, with the perfect ratio of rice, beans, and meat in every bite. He said the best he's had in florida so far. Do not skip the horchata either. It was excellent and the perfect complement to the food. Seating is a bit limited right now, but they are expanding next door soon, which is great to hear. You can really tell how much love goes into this place. I love Casita Luna and will absolutely keep coming back.

After seeing positive reviews on Yelp, my wife and I decided to try this place out. We typically go…read moreto La Hacienda for our Mexican food fix but opted to try something different for lunch. This place is quite small/cramped. We placed our order then found a high table for two. We both like carnitas so I ordered the Carnitas Burrito and my wife tried their Carnitas Quesadillas. Our observations: 1. This place does NOT provide complimentary chips and salsa. What?!!! 2. Carnitas flavor was lacking in our opinion. We liked the seared tortillas but were underwhelmed by the flavor 3. Service was friendly and food came out fast enough 4. We didn't think the value was there. 5. Ample parking in front. All in all, our experience fell short of high expectations. We'll be sticking with La Hacienda. Lunch for 2 (just water to drink) came out to just under $35 with tip.

I'm sorry I didn't take photos inside, because there were several families with (very well behaved) children dining in, but it's very clean, streamlined decor, and bright.

Everything was served cold.....over easy eggs, bacon, grits with no butter or hot sauce. Ordered side of sausage which came cold, burnt, and after I had eaten most of what I could get down, never did get the biscuits. ALL managements fault. Server going as fast as she could and still maintained a cheerful, apologetic personality. Left her nice tip. Hard to get the experience out of my mind enough to go back. I'm sure more folks in the cafe will feel the same when they leave.

In the grocery you can find various grocery items including fresh and packaged. There is breakfast, lunch and dinner and taco Tuesday which can get packed.

The workers here are helpful even though this place can get extremely hectic. I'm positive that a lot has to do with the excellent management. At La Hacienda it is apparent that they care deeply about the community and their customers! This is the kind of store that many visit daily for something quick to eat and a chat.
