Restaurants in Brooksville

“A quaint little eatery on North Howell in a historic home. I ordered the Monte Cristo Crepe and it was superb. Closest thing to Paris around here. The ownership and service was very friendly. Charming interior. So cool!”

“Michael, our waiter, was outstanding. He was personable, patient and helpful with very good suggestions from the entree list as well as recommending a good wine choice. Without a doubt he added to an enjoyable dining experience. The food was full of wonderful flavors and tastes. The garlic mashed potatoes, crab cake and desert were magnificent. However, the quality of the steaks, especially for the price, was disappointing. Plus, my wife and my steak were slightly over cooked and not as tender as would be expected. Defiantly not what you would expect from a highly rated, somewhat pricy steak house. I will say that the last visit was superb in comparison and the steaks had a very good wood smoked flavor, unlike this time. Consistency is important, knowing what you’ll be getting creates customer loyalty. Regardless both my Wife and I will visit this establishment again, requesting Michael as our server and hoping Prime 88 becomes a mainstay in our community for years to come.”

“Always outstanding meals and fantastic service! Best Italian in the area! Eggplant Parm and Pasta Lorenzo are our go to's”

“Great food the service was amazing thr place looks amazing the server was on top of everything. The manager was great came bye and he checked if everything was ok and if we needed anything else. Feeling happy with Applebees’s . I would come this Applebees's what a great job”

“Chop Block was fantastic! We had the pork chop, the tenderloin pork with Merlot sauce and a filet and they were wonderful. We finished it off with cheese cake that was delicious. Server Kate & mixologist Stephanie were outstanding! We will be back. Thanks, B”

“Good customer service, and attitudes”

“Super down to earth owners! Great vibes and even better beers.”

“Last Saturay we worked at Simpson Lakes as the kitchen staff for the Republican event. The catering staff was Carrabbas headed by Ms. Tammy Kelly....This staff was SO nice, helpful and professional ....and even left our crew of 7 with a dinner and salad in the coolers to take home. The food was DELICIOUS!!!! We look forward to working with them again sometime.”

“Charming atmosphere , Delicious items & lovely service!”

“Excellent food, excellent service.”

“We attended their 25th anniversary celebration pairings. The food and drinks were beyond delicious. However the best part of the experience are the people. All the employees, led by Jessica and Nikki, made it so much fun. They are real people who go so far out of their way to make sure their diners are well taken care of. Nikki even remembered my husband is allergic to crab and made sure his dishes were crab free. Jessica seems to be everywhere, taking care of everyone at the same time. It's amazing to see. They are what make it worthwhile to attend. Thank you.”

“This restaurant is a treasure right here in Brooksville. Great wine selection. Amazing entrees with a New Orleans flare. The decor is great. The only reason I gave 3 stars for atmosphere is that dining this high quality should have very soft lighting - not white, bright cafeteria lighting. A simple fix to an
otherwise perfect spot.”

“Waited one hour and twenty minutes before being seated so we decided to leave. For glorified Asian food.. while some Asian man yells at you while making your food.. not worth it!”

“Our first time eating anything at this Sam's Club cafe. The pizza is very good. It has a thick crust and good amount of cheese. A Really nice marinara sauce and lots of pepperoni. The pretzels look good too.”

“This was our first time at this new Olive Garden. It's very nice and the new Olive Garden decor is classy! Our server, Patrick, was awesome, and did a great job. Our drinks from the bar were top notch. The salad and bread sticks were great, like they always are at OG. My partner had spaghetti and meatballs and he said it was great. I had the chicken Alfredo with broccoli. It was good, but a little dry, since they were a little stingy with the Alfredo sauce. It was a great meal, and I would definitely recommend this location.”

“It would be 5 stars but the lady that attended my wife and my mother in law was very rude, we ordered over the phone at 9pm and the lady said will be ready in 5 minutes, well, the drive takes 15 minutes, when got there the place was closed already, even though it says it closes at 9:30pm, when my mother in law inquired why it was closed already, this lady rudely replied “I told you 5 minutes”. Somebody should teach her how to treat customers.”

“Kelly was a great server and the only reason I have 4 stars. My husband ordered cheese fries for an appetizer. They were not hot or crispy and cheese was in globs. We both ordered the largest rib eyes med rare. They were both tough and chewy and his was rare inside. There was hardly any sour cream on our loaded baked potatoes, but Kelly got us more. Like I said, Kelly was excellent...good service, friendly, and personable.”

“Our 1st visit and not our last! The BEST collard greens anywhere. The burger was cooked just right and perfect with the milk stout craft beer my husband ordered in the tap room next door. The Seafood Gumbo was great! Cash only folks...change in $2 bills.”

“No reason to any place else for donuts! These are the best❤️”

“Coney Island in Brooksville is a great place to eat. All their food is good but especially their $5 fish box on Friday. The perfect ending to the week. Great food, great service!!!!!”

“While visiting this area we decided to try a local breakfast place, are we glad we did!!! Paula R. was our server and she was VERY friendly and helpful even in helping us choose our breakfast and giving us her imput on toppings and condiments. She was very professional! The food was EXCELLENT!!!! I the omelet I nhad smothered in sausage gravy was wonderful as was the pancakes! This was one of the best tasting breakfast and service we have had in a very long time. Thank You, Paula and If we are back in the area, we will be back!!!!!”

“We just left Deep South FamilyBBQ. The food was excellent. For a small restaurant, I was pleasantly surprised that each course came out when needed and everything was hot, not spicy hot. That is the first time we have encountered that in Florida. Fried green tomatoes were perfect, the ribs were moist, the sides were like homemade, and the fried peach pie was to die for… We will be back.”

“I can't even begin to explain how enjoyable this place is to eat.
Everyone who works there has a big smile on there face.
I have driven past this place countless time on the way home from work. Today my wife and I decided to give it a try.
The parking lot is the only odd thing, just park out back and walk around to the front. Since it faces main street.
I got the Cuban and my wife got a chicken salad sandwich then we split a very good piece of peanut butter pie.
The food was great and the prices are average.
But I think its the general atmosphere here that is most enjoyable.
You can serve great food but if you got a scrappy server it ruins everything.
I didn't get our servers name but she was really the loudest server there lol.
Very good time we will be back 4 sure”

“Local watering hole with all your favorite people, live music, cold beer and Brooksville charm”

“we had the Wednesday burger fries and drink special for $8 it was so good! was our first time and we went back again yesterday 9/20 and had the burgers fries,feta fries and again it was delicious! Totally recommend!”

“From the moment I walked in, Cheddar’s delivered an exceptional dining experience. The service was phenomenal—friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome right away. Our server went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, checking in just the right amount without being overbearing.

Now, let’s talk about the food—absolutely phenomenal. Every dish tasted homemade and fresh, living up to their “scratch kitchen” promise. I ordered the chicken tenders and rib combo, and it was crispy, juicy, and seasoned perfectly. The sides were just as impressive—hot, flavorful, and generously portioned.

From appetizers to dessert, everything was delicious and arrived at the perfect temperature. The quality, portion size, and prices all exceeded expectations.

If you’re looking for a relaxed, satisfying meal with top-notch service, Cheddar’s is a must-visit. I’ll definitely be returning!”

“Small healthy food eatery that has ample seating and an amazing work crew. Service was amazing and prices were good. The portions seem small but was very filling so it was perfect for my dinner when I went. Highly recommend their power bowl”

“their food is amazing!!!!”

“Recently had a small birthday were Florida Cracker Kitchen Chef Ethan made a delicious seafood boil! The layers of taste was unmatched and the quality of the seafood and sausage was excellent! Communication was a breeze! Highly recommend!”

“***Highest Recommendation*** 9.5/10 I ordered the Build Your Own option with Signature Crust and Crushed Tomato sauce, and added Mozzarella, Italian Sausage, Pepperoni, Canadian Bacon, Applewood Bacon, Chorizo, Basil and Meatballs. All pizzas are one size, 10". Crust: Neopolitan with 2+ day fermentation, cooked in a high end Earthstone 160-pa wood fired oven at 900°. It was cooked perfectly for a Neopolitan. Artisanal quality with a slight crisp and airy texture. Great gluten development. Very flavorful crust. Traditional thin Neopolitan texture. Good char. This is traditionally intended to be eaten with a knife and fork and will inherently have some flop like most Neopolitan. 9.5/10. Sauce: Crushed tomato sauce, which tasted like authentic San Marzano tomato sauce. It was very fresh and vibrant, flavorful and minimalistic. Perfect balance with natural sweetness. Contributes to overall flavor. Tasty. 9.5/10. Cheese & Toppings: Loaded. Good mozzarella. Mild Italian sausage and smaller pieces but enjoyable. Very good pepperoni. Canadian Bacon was good. Applewood Bacon were smaller pieces and good but craved more. Chorizo was fantastic and the star of the toppings. Very very good fresh basil. Meatball is a secret off-menu ingredient and was also very enjoyable. 9/10. Size/Value: The base build your own pizza with sauce and mozzarella starts at $11.95 and includes up to 4 toppings. Each additional topping is only $1. As I added 7 toppings, this adds $3 to the base, for a total of $14.95. This was a very good value for an authentic Neopolitan with high quality ingredients. Neopolitan pizzas typically aren't overly loaded and I thought this had a great balance and in no way was sparse. There are several creative signature pizza options for $11.95, as well as a barbones cheese for $9.95 or $10.95 for 1 topping. The concept is authentic Neopolitan pizza with a high end authentic wood fired oven, along with some non-traditional topping offerings. I personally love Neopolitan pizza as that's been my specialty for years. Located in Mariner Square. The restaurant offers 10% Military & First Responders discount, and has some military decor and awards from local owner Rod Scott, who owns the business with his wife Cat. Rod is a retired Army Lieutenant Colonel of 32 years and served as a linguist and a counter-intelligence special agent. Rod and Cat appear to be very involved in the local community across Hernando County and have an emphasis for supporting veterans. (Bonus +.1) They also offer a self-serve taproom with a variety of local craft beers from the Tampa Bay Area. They have a food truck that serves the surrounding area. They offer a variety of hosted events such as Karaoke and Sip & Paint. They also have lunch specials as well as kids (10 and under) currently eat free all summer long during dine-in, per each adult pizza purchase. They also offer gluten free crust and vegan cheese options (Bonus +.1)”

“Went to the restaurant on Saturday night, had a wonderful dinner. Just found this place on Google, but I was blown away. Our server Lexi was incredible, she was so friendly and personable especially since the restaurant had no specials or pizza. Lexi apologized and her knowledge of the menu allowed us to make great choices as all of our meals were top notch, she even made us the best margaritas we have ever had! Definitely check out this spot if you're in the area and be sure to ask for Lexi!”

“We eat there at least once an sometimes twice a week. They have the best breakfast l get the same every time. An we there every Friday for all the fish you can eat. Great fish. Get great respect from owners an servers.”

“It’s not your usual fast food. Fast counter service but not fast food. Many varieties of chicken salad on your choice of breads or croissant. Their soups are delicious. Try their lemonade, a great alternative to soda. Always clean bright and welcoming. I 🩷this place.”

“I had the chocolate chunk cookie, it was worth the drive from Illinois!”

“The Cuban sandwich is amazing and the staff are so nice! Would recommend 100%! 🩷”

“We ordered a tray of Lo Mein for our daughters class project (international food festival). The kids absolutely loved the food. I ordered the yellow curry and sticky mango rice. Unbelievably good!!”

“Great staff great service.”

“We brought some residents from an assisted living facility today for lunch. The patrons were kind enough to help us all get into the establishment and helped on the way out. The staff were excellent. They even stopped to tie a shoe for one of the ladies. The roller skating lady was there and spread lots of love and positive messages. They even returned a credit card that was left. It was a very positive experience to see lots of good people in this world looking out for our seniors!”

“I tried a Island detox smoothie the other day . And now my 2 year old granddaughter is addicted. We placed our 3 rd pickup order today and the staff was beyond friendly . Thanks for making our day !!”

“Very good food. The owner of the restaurant even came out talked to the girls. Food was excellent.”

“Great food!!! Them cheese curds were on point!!!! Service was on point!!! The guy is super cool and nice!!!”

“My only complaint is about the loaded fries. I LOVE THEM! Or I used to. We’ve bought them 3 times in the last month (about 6p.m.) and a half and they’ve been horrible! They look old and taste old. The bacon and the fries taste like they were leftovers from lunch. If we go at supper time now I avoid them.”

“Love this place!!! Love their menu! So many options! And everyone working there is helpful and friendly! Thank you for making my days! I just feel better when I stop by!”

“Listen when I tell you if you don't know about PortlandBey Jerk you better ask somebody. I can understand if you got tired of looking for a goto spot and just gave up I've been there myself but let me tell you I had the steak, ribs and jerk chicken and my faith in EXCELLENT BBQ and authentic Caribbean flavor has been restored. When I tell you they all hit on every level THEY ALL HIT ON EVERY LEVEL. Get down there and thank me later FOR REAL Them lines down the road need to be now.”

“Best place ever! I'd planned on going to a sit down restaurant Unfortunately all of them were short staffed or limited menu or both! We walk in here and the ladies are always so cheery we often come here and enjoy our meal immensely!”

“The food is so yummy!

Its fresh, and literally worth the price in my option, they literally makes the best burger and give you EXTRA FRIES IN THE BAG. I got the cheese burger with an extra slice of cheese and it was so cheesy the cheese was peeking through the wrapper. Also I highly recommend trying this with some chick fil a sauce. Like it together is an unstoppable combination especially with the patty melt.”

“We just stopped here for lunch. Two days ago we ate at one of the top rated BBQ joints in San Antonio, TX and this was better!! Pulled pork, collards, and sweet potato cornbread... fabulous!🎉”

“If you're in the mood for some authentic Puerto Rican flavors, look no further! The homemade food is absolutely delicious and will transport you straight to the streets of Puerto Rico. BBQ ribs, Mofongo, pulled pork sandwich, every bite is a taste of paradise. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!”

“Being from Baltimore snowballs are a summer staple… snowcones do not even come close to snowballs… this is a must stop for the authentic snowball… especially egg custard with marshmellow!!”

“Some of the best coffee I’ve ever had. Amazing company!”

“We ordered from just it's just wings for lunch delivery. They came within an hour's time and the food was hot and fresh. However, the wings though they were cooked the skin was rubbery and not crisp. The sauces tasted pretty good but the curly fries were also overcooked. If they had gotten the wings crispier and the fries less well done it would have been a great meal. We are considering trying them again and getting plain crispy wings with sauce on the side to dip. That might be the best way to eat their food.”

“Flavor is perfect. Lots of options. So fun to watch be made in front of you! Great dessert to pair with a Hibachi Rito at the connected Roll On In”

“Ordered a Supreme Traditional pizza and it was delicious. My wife and I found a great place for pizza and living in Glen Lakes so close to our home.”

“Went here for lunch with my crew. They all liked it. Went back with my family and they all liked it. That's 12 people and not one was disappointed !”

“We ordered beef & broccoli 😞. The beef was tough, the sauce was jelly and the broccoli was undercooked. we asked for duck sauce and only got one package. Not ordering here again.”

“I recently had dinner at BOSS Tea and Pho with my sister. I ordered the Golden mousse milk tea while my sister opted for the jasmine tea, both were delicious. For starters, we tried the chicken wontons which were crispy and flavorful. For my main course, I had the large Mongolian Beef with jasmine rice and soup, a generous portion with delicious flavors. My sister ordered the seafood and egg noodles, enjoying the seafood and noodles but finding the squid a bit chewy. The staff was friendly and attentive, and we had an overall enjoyable experience. We definitely plan on returning in the future.”

“Almost every time we go here they do not disappoint. They're always nice and polite and usually takes about 15 minutes to get the food ready. Serving or always plentiful. Thank you Kings Wok.”

“Utilized their curb service.
The Subway teammate walked out to my car in a timely manner. But her interaction wasn't pleasant. Didn't say hello, just roughly said WHAT'S THE NAME? Then she checked the name on the receipt and handed me the Subway bag. Walked away without saying thank you or have a good day or thanks for visiting Subway. That wasn't a nice experience. IDK if I'll go back to that location.

Parking: Huge parking lot area.

Kid-friendliness: Yes, kids menu
