Remarkable Restaurants and our "Special Finds"  are spotlighted in this section of Our Villages Guide.

Two "Special Finds" in nearby Ocklawaha:

Alfie's Restaurant
11677 Highway 25
(Just a couple minutes west of Ocklawaha, FL)
(352) 288-9771
If you love prime rib, you'll love Alfie's. Very reasonable prices Simple "northwoods" atmosphere. The 16 ounce "Queen" size for $18 is plenty for two to share or arrive before 5:30 and get "early birds" for less than $10. Thursday is AUCE fish fry.

Gater Joe's
12431 SE 135th Avenue
Oklawaha, FL
(Take Hwy 25 to "Downtown" Ocklawaha.
At the traffic light, go one block north toward Lake Weir)
(352) 288-3100
Enjoy "old Florida" at its best. Located directly on Lake Weir. Try to get a table on the dock if weather is pleasant.
