I love that I could also choose between regular or cauliflower rice. I selected cauliflower (so I could save calories for creme brûlée). I admit that I am a bit of a creme brûlée. It's my favorite! This one was good but I prefer a more solid crunch top. This was patchy. (I already told you that this is a ME thing) - most people would love this. It tasted really good.

After being confused about there not being a buffet at the Hilton downtown, we ended up at Arthur's…read moreBistro at the Hilton off of 75. The hotel is very nice and the dining room is open and bright. There were a lot of options for things to eat and a wonderful carving station with roast beef. There was also an omelette station and plenty of charcuterie, fruit, and pastry selections. The meal also included endless mimosas. The staff was very attentive and was quick to refill drinks and take away finished plates. I will say that I was a little surprised at the price of $39, for a once, every so often experience, though, it was worth the price as we were celebrating a birthday.

Had the pleasant surprise of a great live jazz singer, too. Why I gave this a rating of 3 stars is because the food is underwhelming, especially for the price. It lacks flavor. We kept needing to added spices or condiments and also some of the options didn't make sense for a holistic dining experience (e.g. where is the bagels and cream cheese to go with the lox, onions, etc spread? Or why not a vegetable to go with the fried chicken instead of two starches?). It's a nice try on the Hilton's part but unfortunately it's a miss and we won't try this experience again.

My husband ordered the Italian hoagie with onion rings (the special of the day). My burger was adequate, as was my husband's hoagie. His onion rings though, tasted more like the fryer oil than an onion. Needless to say he didn't eat them. The bar area is nice with closed captioned TV's to watch a game or round of golf. Plenty of parking including a covered drop-off entrance for stormy days. There is an outdoor screened patio, but it looked like that is for the smokers. Service was good considering they had a large gathering of residents for an event.

The ambiance was inviting, stylish, and felt like the perfect setting for a weekend experience with friends. The food overall was good. The shrimp and grits were definitely the highlight for me full of flavor and well done. The steak, however, wasn't my favorite and didn't quite hit the mark. The fruit bowl was exactly that fruit in a bowl nothing special but fresh. The banana pudding was delicious and a sweet way to end the meal. The service was a bit inconsistent, which I believe was due to the waitress being very busy. There were a few moments where we waited longer than expected for menus, straws, or even water. While noticeable, it didn't completely take away from the experience and felt more like a staffing issue than a lack of care. Overall, I would absolutely return for brunch with friends. The atmosphere alone makes it worth another visit, and with the right company, it's a great spot to enjoy a relaxed and beautiful brunch experience.

We visited The Table in DeLand with a group of ten and had an overall good experience, with a few…read moremixed moments. For appetizers, we tried the coconut shrimp, Table tots, spinach dip, and charcuterie. Everything was fantastic except the shrimp, which were a bit overcooked. The rest of the starters were flavorful and well prepared. Most of our group ordered the NY strip since they were out of the filet, while others chose the meatloaf, mushroom pasta, and a few other dishes. Portions were generous and the food was tasty. While the strip wasn't the best I've had, it was cooked perfectly. Dessert was a bit hit or miss. We tried all the pies -- most were decent and nicely presented, though nothing stood out. The salted caramel cheesecake had a grainy texture rather than being smooth. Service was friendly, but a little rushed. Courses came out too quickly, making it hard to enjoy each one before the next arrived. The table became crowded with plates, and the pace felt chaotic at times. The server was kind and seemed possibly overwhelmed. Overall, a good meal with solid food, but pacing and a few execution details could use some attention.

We recently visited Elevation 89 at the Ocala airport and overall had a pleasant dining experience…read more The restaurant has a clean dining room with calming colors and décor that create a relaxed atmosphere. One of the highlights is the excellent view of the runway, where you can watch small airplanes take off and land while enjoying your meal. The service was friendly and attentive, and the food was good overall. We both ordered rice bowls with stir-fried vegetables and our choice of protein--one with chicken and the other with shrimp. The flavors were enjoyable; however, both bowls seemed noticeably watery. We're not sure if the extra liquid came from the vegetables or the rice preparation, but it was enough to be noticeable and took away from the overall enjoyment of the dish. Menu prices appear to range from around $10 into the $40s, offering options for a variety of budgets. One disappointment was that Elevation 89 is listed online, including on web searches and Yelp, as offering a Sunday Brunch. We specifically chose this location because we meet once a month to try a new brunch spot. Unfortunately, upon arrival we learned there is no Sunday Brunch currently being offered. We were disappointed by the inaccurate information and hope the online listings are updated so future guests can plan accordingly. Despite that issue, we enjoyed the clean environment, good service, and especially the unique runway views and watching the small aircraft come and go.

But the gravy and risotto were really yummy and the pork shank was really meaty but honestly i couldn't finish it because the pork flavor after a while was off putting. 6/10 Overall the service was decent, the ambiance was dope, but I wouldn't waste my time ever going back.

I had a lavender iced latte which was pretty good! I was hoping to try the blueberry pancakes one but they were out of the flavors to make it, and also out of the toasted marshmallow flavor so I couldn't try the toasted root beer. So a little sad over that, but the lavender latte was still an absolute win. Plus it was out to me super fast! I also tried a homemade pop tart. That was also really good. I was expecting preserves or similar for the filling though and it wasn't. It was like a strawberry cream cheese filling. Which was good! Just doesn't scream "poptart" to me. The service here is absolutely top tier tho, with no "buts". It's definitely a hometown mom and pop type place and really seems like they care about their community and the employees care about being there. I'll definitely be back. And maybe next time, I'll go earlier in the month when they have a cool flavor of the month so I don't miss out!!! You can't really beat a "coffee. Beach. Bourbon" attitude!
