Really disgusting!

Inside, Bonifay has a very pretty bar area and a nice beachy feel to the restaurant. Food is pretty good inside.

I thought they had roll down screens installed out at the bar. Saw them rolled up a few weeks ago. Are they not using them?

try this trick for the flies...carry along a little plastic baggie with about five ounces of water and three pennies in it....supposed to dazzle their 100 eyes and keep them away? it seemed to work for me in another location. my favorite dish at bonifay is the southern pot roast! delicious. but now that i will try to be a vegetarian i guess i have had my last bite of that don't know if i can do it!

There used to be a cuban restaurant in Crystal River that utilized this trick and it seemed to work. The interior of the restaurant was open on two sides to the outside dining. Hanging from the top of the walk-through on both sides were four or five large clear plastic, water-filled bags. Never experienced a problem with flies at all and the place was right there on the water on King's Bay.
