Best restaurants near me in Silver Springs Shores, FL

This was our third visit to Katya Vineyards, the first in their new location. (I think it used to be a bar and the general vibe was an upscale bar with a restaurant attached.) From the first the service was excellent. It was Valentine's Day, so the staff was overworked and stressed, but their greeting was positive and genuine. The young man and young lady at the desk were cheerful and friendly. The food was really quite excellent. The chef (who made a point of greeting us after the meal asking for how we liked the meal) was skilled and innovative. I had the risotto with bacon, pistachios, truffles and beef tips (couldn't really taste the pistachios, but they were a subtle undercurrent) My wife had the seafood ravioli. Both were superb. The appetizer, grilled octopus, was very good, but would have benefited from additional char grilling. Personal opinion. The risotto could have used a little less salt. I think the bacon and pistachios added some additional salt and the dish would have benefited from less added in as a result. But still, it was excellent. The wine steward helped us out with excellent choices of wine after one of the bottles I selected was no longer available. All in all, a friendly and helpful staff, excellent chef, and nice setting, if a bit "energetic (hey, it was Valentines Day and all those sweet nothings being whispered added up!). Not inexpensive, for sure. But worth a visit when you want to experiment with innovative cooking. Will return.

The food was amazing, everything from the bread to my girlfriend's Short Rib Stroganoff, to my Filet Mignon. The only detractor here I would say were my sides, the mashed potatoes were not bad but needed salt, and the Asparagus probably could have been cooked longer. The Steak and the Pasta were to die for though. The drinks were wonderful as well! Service was exceptional, great staff, very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant itself is very cute and cozy. Overall lovely experience, just need to work on their sides in my opinion.

First time and wasn't disappointed. Service was excellent from the time we walked in the door until the time we exited. Very impressed with the service. Food was great although side dish wasn't hot, otherwise everything was great. Will visit again.

Our go-to restaurant on any occasion for quality, well prepared, delicious food and consistent customer service. Their attention to detail and excellent, innovative presentations from the chef made for a very special Valentines Day.

Beautiful and creative desert options for a celiac patient. Chef accommodated my gluten free needs. Sara was outstanding as our server.
