   One of the consistently best for food quality and service of anywhere I go. Yes it’s expensive, but I never leave disappointed.

   We loved our food and service at stirrups but the table next to us had their children running around and standing around their table to the point of bumping into us. They were loud and not respecting the environment of a nice evening and special occasion stirrups should be.

   Highest recommendation. If you are anywhere near Ocala you must go. The service was amazing and the food was delicious from the start with the bread selection to ending with dessert and the little treat.

   My wife and I and my sister and brother in law enjoyed a splendid dinner at Stirrups recently. Each couple has eaten at up scale restaurants across the USA and Siirrups is as good or better than any .n Beautiful setting, beautiful interior, wonderful food and wait persons. We will be back. **Bring some $$ it's not cheap, but cheap food is usually not good.

   Fantastic service. Lindsay was wonderful and the whole staff was attentive. The steak and seafood were excellent, and the wine selections are some of the best I have seen.

   Service was excellent, we ordered 2 egg Benedict’s one smoked salmon and one ham. Very little salmon and very little salmon was in them. Coffee was great. They need to do better for the $. Had the Banana Forster French Toast a couple weeks ago it was outstanding

    The ambiance of this place is a winner... and watching the horses is a big part of the experience. Sadly, with all the luxury, one might get the impression there are high quality chefs in the back, preparing their premium priced fare. But alas, I fear this place may just be another destination that uses contracted food service, like our national parks. That is the quality of food my group received. It was not bad, but was not anywhere near our expectations given the surroundings. Eggs Benedict, overcooked with probably only a smattering of hollandaise. And the Hunter version, with, dried out straw-like duck "confit" on a soggy waffle... just a mistake. Horrible combinations. Please stop. The omelets, and scrambled eggs, and side orders were all decent but unremarkable. The breakfast potatoes where deep fried, indicating they don't have anyone skilled enough to make real breakfast potatoes. So "commercial" and so not "cuisine." Everything looks and feels and tastes like pre-made, reheated commercial food service fare. Frankly, the contracted food at Silver Springs is much better. Staff should consider a field trip. The saving grace of the day were the desserts we purchased at the Patisserie and ate on the veranda below the dining area... and the front of the house staff. Outstanding service and attentive staff, hobbled by mediocre food that left us wondering if anyone cared about what left the kitchen. Edit: I just recently found out that this place is managed by, Columbus Hospitality Management, which is a contracted food service company like Guest Services, etc., known for running school cafeterias and other lesser destinations that hold profit over quality. Now all the mediocrity and lack of attention to detail and quality... make complete sense. One star for the ambiance, and two for the stars of the day... the servers. I'm disappointed I could not offer a more positive review.
