About mulberry , a very close friend of mine went there after they had opened-- when the sevber attempted to serve some ribs, they slipped off the plate, and they fell on the floor--she picked them up and tried to serve them again== nuff said

We were regular visitors to Cody’s in Ocala on S.R 200 when we living there during winter. We enjoyed it and went every now and then...........fast forward to this past winter we tried the new one in Mulberry. My wife ordered a half rack of ribs and they were cold as if they came out of the refrigerator and forgot to heat them. Even though we sent them back the replacement or heated cold ones were not very good. We won’t be back there.

Totally agree and Cody's bathroom is always yuck.

Had the rest of our meals and as the waitress was giving us our checks she said, “ we found out what it is.” Turns out the ladle for the dressing was falling apart and chipped off in the salad. No offer to reduce our bill at all. I wasn’t in an argumentive move so we just got the heck out of there. I read another posting on this forum where someone’s wife’s “to go” salad had a food prep glove in it. I just thought I would left other people know of our recent experience at Cody’s

Sorry for your bad experience. I am surprised you weren't comped the meal minimum. I would have talked to the manager on duty but that's me. The waitress should have gotten the manager involved. Not a good customer service move on their part.

Some businesses are doing so well, they are indifferent to complaints. Sometimes making a stink yields better results but certainly understand your dismay.

In the middle of the plate was greenest grasshopper I have ever seen alive and staring back. He blended in perfectly with the salad greens. We asked the maître de to come over and pointed to the creature. They comped us a $ 50.00 bottle of wine along with free deserts. A somewhat different policy then Cody's follows obviously. It's amazing, not even a draft. The bad PR on TOTV will cost them a thousand times the cost of a few brews, which might have resulted in a favorable review.

Aren’t grasshoppers edible? Protein!

Bagboy, one should assume you were there and witnessed the incident?

Does anyone ever wonder just how the bathrooms became “yuck”? It is probably not the employees. Just saying....

Totally irrelevant.

What is relevant, is who/whom is responsible...for maintaining and keeping them clean. :oops:

It sounds like an urban legend.

At the entrance to Cody's I suggest that a sign be posted " Enter At You Own Risk "...

The place is a Dump

Quite frankly I've observed this in many men's restrooms in the villages. Need to have those signs that read " Hitters with short bats please stand closer to the plate" !

They need a sign. "We aim to please, you aim to please"
