The one in Dunnellon has the boat ride--it's right on the river. The one in Inverness is downtown.

Default Stumpknokers

Just ate at Stumpknokers this past Friday. The food was at best a 2 on a scale of 10. The shrimp scampi consisted of 6 small shrimp in a tasteless sauce. I had the broiled scallops (5 or six medium size) in again a boring sauce. I would nor recommend the drive of approx 25 miles to this restrauant.

Does anyone know if Stumpknockers has anything on the menu other than fish?

Stumps serves prime rib on Friday and Saturday nights. I can't get their web site to come up, but I am sure they have either rib steak or NY strip every night.

The fried shrimp is good, as are the scallops. Some always order the catfish.

My wife's favorite is the frog legs. She fills up on them and then gets a carry-out order to take home.

Recently went to Stumpknockers for catfish. I guess it was one of those nights when the food was not as good as last spring----greasy and service was also below average. This was a "first" as we have been there several times before with excellent result. But any restaurant can have an "off night"----and we will go back another evening.

Went there once. Took the boat ride and ate dinner. Once was enough.

We went there last Thursday. EVERYTHING everyone had, catfish and salmon, was perfect. We had been there years ago when we lived in the Tampa Bay area and it was great back then. It's nice to see it is still doing well.
