This is the 2nd time I've had issues wity their quality of food even though it was just dip, it's still food. Idk what if I'll ever go again cause a previous week ordered a steak & it was ordered medium & came out extremely rare, yeah it was sent back & it was corrected but if I have to do this everytime I try to go to restaurant why would I go back .

We chose to sit…read moreinside as it was a bit chilly but the patio area looked welcoming and a plus as they had cornhole boards. Our waitress was very friendly and explained the menu since we hadn't been there before and pointed out specials available during the week. My husband got the clam chowder soup, my son got wings with sauce on the side. I chose the nachos that came out in a big charcoal can and the waitress lets them dump out on the plate from the bottom of the cab. Neat presentation but felt all the good stuff then ended up at the bottom and you had to dig through. The food was average. I also got the house margarita which was a great price but it watered down fairly quick. Overall, I'd try it again.

Wow another awesome Local place. Definitely do not judge…read morethis place by the curb appeal Or lack there of. Looks like a biker bar but is a great lunch spot. Stopped in for a business lunch. Ben had the country fried steak. Holy cow it was huge. The mashed potatoes looked awesome also. I had the chef salad with grilled shrimp with house dressing. Huge, overflowing, diverse, fresh and tasty. Mike had the grouper sandwich which was also huge and delicious looking. Great service and awesome food. Great local place.

Wow... what an experience. We ordered 3 large pizzas and 3 appetizers for my husband's birthday…read moredinner. When placing the order, we asked for a supreme with two additional toppings. The lady taking the order only rang in the two toppings, not the supreme. When my husband arrived to pick everything up, she told him they could either remake the pizza or give a credit. We chose the remake, and she said it would be 12 minutes. Well past those 12 minutes, our other food was already sitting in boxes getting soggy. I called and spoke with Monica, who was just as unfriendly as she was when taking my original order. I asked her to please check the appetizers since we had just spent $100 and didn't want to bring home soggy mozzarella sticks, gator bites, and calamari. Her response? While I was on the phone with my husband, she said, "I was going to give you a credit, but since we're having to remake your appetizers, I'm not. You can have the pizza that was a mistake." None of this was our fault. The order was entered incorrectly, and instead of owning the mistake, they acted like we were asking for something unreasonable by wanting hot, fresh food. For the amount we spent, and for a place we've visited many times (a favorite of my dad's), this was extremely disappointing. Mistakes happen--we get that. But the way this was handled was unacceptable. We won't be recommending this location, and if you do order, double‑check everything before you leave. Merry Christmas, Papa Willie's...

Since the burgers are thin, they are mostly well done. All tasted good and service was good. Great hamburger stand food. Yes-I would recommend. Be sure to check hours-they close at 6pm on Mondays.

Halibut was my entree. The parsnip purée is a perfect pairing with this perfectly prepared fish. The short ribs and pork tenderloin also superb. The wedge salad was ordered as an entree and was huge. The diner in my party could not finish it because of the size. The blue cheese dressing was mild and just the right amount. Beautiful interior, nicely appointed with top notch lighting fixtures. I have read reviews that the portions are small but I disagree. This is not a chain restaurant, or a cookie cutter menu. You get what you pay for. A+!

Absolutely the most outstanding dining experience I've had in Citrus County (Crystal River area)…read moreFlorida, EVER. My parents bought property on the waterfront in Crystal River circa 1988, and I've been a frequent visitor until I relocated here full time in 2022. So I'm writing from the perspective of both tourist/visitor and resident. For tourists: Worth the drive from Crystal River to Lecanto. For residents: Worth taking a break from all of your "usual favorites." I'd call Katch-22 a "special occasion" dining experience that falls into the "expensive but 100% worth it" category. If I was loaded with cash, I'd come here on at least a weekly basis. Highlights? There are so many.... I was told that the establishment was newly renovated, and can verify that the "new" ambience is outstanding. Features intimate, low key, soft lighting throughout the restaurant at the dinner hour; great IMO for a special date/anniversary. I can echo other Yelp reviews I relied on, that the cocktail offerings are absolutely top notch. I'm no stranger to the Cosmopolitan (big fan of "Sex and the City), and the one I was served at Katch-22 was the best I've had (thus far) in this lifetime (I'm in my 50s). The wine list is well-thought-out to pair nicely with the menu, and the bartender was exceptionally well-informed to make suggestions. Other reviewers recommended the Espresso Martini as a dessert option, which I chose, and it was exceptionally well made. The food? WOW. I relocated to the Crystal River area from previously living Portland, Oregon and Boca Raton, Florida--both of which are nationally known "foodie" locales. I did not think I could ever find an equal to those metropolitan offerings in rural Florida (no offense intended to locals). The Katch-22 menu is creative and outstanding, with a unique spin on classic dishes. Katch-22 would rank in my lifetime Top 5 of *best food ever* establishments. I was texting photos of the dishes, as they came out, to my "Boca Princess" food snob friends, I was that impressed. After hearing about the special "light menu" starter items from my outstanding bartender/server--since I was dining alone and didn't want to take up a table at dinner hour--I ordered a bowl of "soup of the moment" lobster bisque, and a beet salad. That was all I intended to eat that evening. Is there such a thing as a "food-gasm" (ask Meg Ryan from "Sleepless in Seattle")?!? Best beet salad, EVER, served on a whipped goat cheese mousse. Because the "starters" were not enough to satisfy me that evening, I ordered the seared scallops with tomato risotto from the main menu. Wasn't sure how that would work out, because I was thinking that the acidity of the fresh tomatoes would be tough to integrate into a creamy risotto. Not something I would attempt as a home cook. Chef (and kitchen) pulled it off. I almost have no words. Beautiful presentation, and impeccably prepared in every imaginable way...I was closing my eyes to try to taste the "why" as to how these were the BEST seared scallops I'd ever tasted. Seriously. Definitely not a standard hot browned butter/oil & garlic prep. There's some magic in there that I can't explain, so just order it and enjoy! I'll be returning to try my second and third and fourth choices....
