Richard's Place is the real deal. Excellent service, quality, and value. Coffee was promptly topped off, and all requests were graciously accomodated.Omelettes were excellent, biscuit and sausage gravy was as good as it gets, and the grits, well none better! The homemade Dumpling Soup was out of this world. Have to come back for lunch next time in Ocala.Happy New Year

I have eaten here a few times and I highly recommend it. Reminds me of my Sunday breakfast is at Grandma's. The ones I used to give to my children. The food is delicious the atmosphere is great and the service is so sweet and polite. I highly recommend this to everyone. Parking may be a little difficult but it's worth taking the time out to find a spot to park.

Consistently delicious, whether Sal Sr or Sal Jr is cooking. They're both terrific. HANDS DOWN THE BEST GRITS IN MARION COUNTY! It's worth the trip, come join us for breakfast!

An Ocala institution - make sure to try the biscuits and gravy or chicken and dumplins!We've been going here for many years and always enjoy our visit. The food is no frills and the portions are generous. The sweet tea is SWEET, as it should be. The servers are consistently kind and helpful and treat you like family.For a good, home cooked meal at a reasonable price, this is one of the best places around!
