Salted Brick at Ocala Preserve - Ocala (FL)

5 /5 Colleen Dillon: Went on Saturday evening at 6. They were very busy but we were seated quickly. Our server April was great. It was a little too noisy but overall a good experience. I had the elk medallions with fingerling potatoes and green beans. Delish.

5 /5 alex lopez: All the benefits of a country club yet the restaurant is open to the public. I have find it to be comparable if not slightly matter, then several of the high-end restaurant chains nearby.

5 /5 Mr. S (Honest Reviewer): I went here for dinner and brunch, and all the meals were delicious. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Im not a resident. This restaurant is open to the public. You have to get here before 7:30pm, as a guest, to enter the preserve. After 7:30 p.m., there is no gate guard to let you into the property. It is casual dining, shorts and a collar shirt are fine. I also recommend making a reservation for this restaurant. There is plenty of parking in a free parking lot.

5 /5 Jennifer Wilke: Robert was doing an outstanding job of balancing serving and training. He never missed a beat and took care of us attentively. The wings and tacos were delicious. Drinks were well made too.

3 /5 Leon F. Gerard, DDS: We live in the development where Salted Brick is, in our clubhouse, so weve been there many times. Weve enjoyed going there for the relaxed, friendly atmosphere and pretty decent food and reasonable prices on drinks and meals (especially with our 20% member discount!) - its really a very good value. Recently, the owners of the restaurant apparently made a significant change to the menu and kitchen - not entirely for the good in our and others opinion. The food is still OK and the service staff are just great, but theyve eliminated some of our favorite items from the menu. What REALLY annoys us, though, is that for some reason they have the a/c set to blow really cold air down onto the center of the room, especially toward the bar. Even in the dead of summer, when its 1000º outside, you literally have to bring a long-sleeve something to wear! Now I love the cold, but I absolutely can NOT abide the fact that when our hot meal comes out, its cold in a few minutes due to the HVAC situation! Its such an easy remedy for them to fix, and so many people have brought this up, that it maybe an intentional thing where they are intentionally cooling peoples meals down so the guests have to eat quickly and they can flip the tables faster. Ive seen this done in a few restaurants and I think its despicable! If I order a hot meal, I want to be able to relax and enjoy it without having to be concerned about rushing through it or 1/2-way thru having to eat cold food. I hope mgt sees this review and addresses the problem... until then, we will continue to go to meet with friends, but if we stay to eat, we will be sending our food back to the kitchen for reheating as quickly as it cools down and I suggest you do the same if you get seated in the "Arctic Zone".
