- WFWilliamFvipSouthwest Florida •58 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoWonderful dinner with family while attending a horse show at WEC. Well worth the drive to enjoy a varied menu with classic delicious entrees. The fried green tomatoes, onion soup and lobster Mac and cheese made great starters along with their homemade bread. Our server was exceptional and very attentive professional. The mains we enjoyed included liver and onions, a sea bass over pear salad and salmon with the most incredible potatoes Great drinks and desserts too!More infoBraised OnionPrice: Moderate• Comfort Food• Ocala•4.8
- DDonvipJacksonville / Northeast Florida •66 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoGreat evening and an excellent meal. Our server, Ryan, did an awesome job of reaching the right balance of giving us some privacy while also being very responsive. Had the new Fried Green Tomato Burrata salad and it was great. Wife had the Sea Bass and I had a steak - both were great. Had a couple of excellent cocktails and a nice half-bottle of wine. Altogether an excellent evening and date night.More infoMark's Prime Steak House - OcalaPrice: Expensive• Steakhouse• Ocala•4.8
- SFStevenFvipTampa / Central Florida West •5 reviews5.0Dined 4 days agoMy wife and I celebrated our anniversary last night at 18 South. The restaurant was beautiful. The staff was charming, thoughtful, and professional. The food was wonderful. I recommend this restaurant highly. Please expect the cost of the food to reflect the extremely high quality of their ingredients. The WAGU steak I had was the best steak I have ever enjoyed. It was priced at $75 for 5 oz. I have seen similar WAGU steaks at other fine restaurants for $200 to $300. We loved this restaurant. Everything was perfect. We look forward to celebrating other special events there in the future.More info18 SouthPrice: Very Expensive• Oyster Bar• Ocala•4.2

Discover Ocala
Ocala has morphed from horse country to multicultural community, based on the profusion of restaurants offering international cuisine. Dining Days is Ocala’s food festival that brings local restaurateurs together for a fixed-price dish sampling event. Italian restaurants range from white-linen settings specializing in old-country staples such as linguini con vongole to national chains of family restaurants serving well-loved dishes.
