Salted Brick at Ocala Preserve 3332 Northwest 55th Avenue, Ocala, FL 34482

"Ordered Gator tail appetizer, so over cooked and covered in peppers that I wasn't sure what it was. Ordered a Black and blue burger that was supposed to be pepper corn encrusted. Not a pepper corn in site and not enough blue cheese to even be sure it was blue cheese"

"To be such a beautiful restaurant, it's a shame the service, menu, and food quality were so lacking. We reserved a table for our anniversary, arrived early and had a cocktail at the bar. The hostess attempted to seat us in a half booth directly behind the stools where we were sitting (next to the bar) This was not acceptable for a romantic dinner, so she seated us in a full size booth next to the loud kitchen. We ordered a bottle of wine, that was not in stock, so they offered a substitute. We waited 30 minutes with bread plates in front of us, then had to ask for bread. When our steaks arrived, the New York Strip was served in a bowl on top of a mountain of plain fries, the filet was smothered in sauce, brussels sprouts hard and extremely dry, baby reds were peeled and also super dry. The NY strip was ordered medium rare, the filet medium, and both came out well done. What should have been a romantic anniversary dinner was sad and a huge fail!"

"Our dog walking group goes to lunch every two weeks. Salted Brick was excellent! Service was perfect and it's such a beautiful atmosphere. The food was superb"

"Five of us went for brunch before heading out to the pool. Limited menu, but that was okay with everything that we ordered and everybody got something different - no complaints! Very yummy! And our server was awesome. Sorry I cannot remember his name!"

"In honesty this is not one of our fav places, however, our friends live here or love it. Service is okay...often we were unable to know about happy hr or order appetizers & ran out of drinks but server were nice each time. Food is not our preference but others may like it. We love the ambiance but everything else has not been our preferred experience."
