Ok ...also Old Port Cove, located way out on a causeway almost to The Gulf. Very good. I’ve also heard that The Freezer in Homosassa has great shrimp. But I haven’t been there.

For good dining? I think not. For Denny's? Absolutely.

Yes, The Freezer has great shrimp. Too bad it is about an hour away.

Early reports from the soft opening 2 days ago suggest Bluefin will be a big hit. Not a single negative review on Next Door Pine Ridge.And best of all, no grumbly comments about too expensive. Grand Opening this Monday!

Yep.


Hard to imagine fine dining...for less than $15.

We went by there last night and they were packed! Inside and out. Here's wishing them much success, and I can't wait to try them out.

Looking forward to going there.

I'll wait until the "Got'a be First Groups" are done.

That's in name only. Landry's bought out Muer Restaurants in 2002. The only one left.

Lunch yesterday at BlueFin with my ladies group was very good. Service was excellent.

I had the salad with pears, light dressing...very yummy.

Managers were stopping at tables and engaging those who would talk.

And I hope to see more reviews of the fish dishes and I hope those reviews can be a little bit more descriptive than simply the overused “yummy”.
