All of the restaurants mentioned are very nice; but I’d want something a little romantic for my 25th. Take a look at the Rose Plantation. Might not be your cup of tea. They were going to do some renovations. Make sure that isn’t happening. Would definitely spoil the mood. I’d tell them it is your 25th so they can seat you somewhere special.

If you want to blow here away, I'd recommend the three six bistro in Ocala. Awarding winning chef, involved owners and top notch food. They have a FB page to check out if you choose to. Most of what I've found in the bubble is average at best. Chop House took a deep slide down hill in the past 2 years, and the only restaurants we found to be decent and consistent are Red Sauce in LSL and Harvest in Brownwood. Of those, Harvest is a bit fancier. Good luck!

The only restaurant that I know of in the entire area that sells a USDA Prime filet mignon is Ruth Chris near Orlando. I buy mine at Publix. Very tender.

We chose Prime 3 on Main in Leesburg for hubby’s birthday.

If you want to stay local, the best restaurant is Paulie's Oaks in The Continental Country Club. If you want to travel north for about 45 minutes go to Stirrups in the World Equestrian Center (but bring money!). If you want to travel south, go to The Goblin Market in Mt. Dora.

The Equestrian Center in Ocala is the fanciest place for miles around. On a local level, the restaurant at the Continental Country Club (believe it or not) does a fine job.

Cody’s is good - if they ghave not been closed due to inspection. We especially like the fried food they serve.

Chophouse is a very nice restaurant. Went there several times and never had an issue. My favorite is the ribeye pork chops.
