Guide

Attention, hungry readers!

D

o you frequently find yourself making last-minute dinner decisions, only to end up at the same restaurant over and over again? There’s a whole world of new tastes to explore out there! And we can help.

In your hands is the third annual Ocala Style Restaurant Guide. This helpful resource was created with our readers in mind. We’ve filled it with some of the area’s finest and most favorite eateries. Read through the restaurant selections to find the perfect night out, whether it’s for a romantic escape for two or a family affair.

The best part? You can take this handy guide with you. Toss it in the glove compartment, and it’s there for

you when questions like “What do you want for dinner tonight?” pop up.

We hope you enjoy our Restaurant Guide and find a good use for it time and time again. If your friends and family would like one too, tell them they can pick up a guide of their own at any of the participating restaurants or at the Ocala Style office. And don’t worry about wearing your copy out— our restaurant guide is an annual resource you can look forward to each year.

Happy Dining,

Kathy Johnson
