    Coney Island footlong and short mustard and onion
    John C.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Fun place. A go to for the locals.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Fairly cheap a great atmosphere and good food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Their chili is also really good.

    Drive thru option, but just as fast inside.

    Always a welcome stop on way from Tallahassee to Clearwater. Just off US 19, it's a popular spot for traveling folks, and very popular with locals. Every type of hot dog you can dream up including plain to Chicago style. We prefer the chili with onion dog. Inside service is quick and friendly, so [[HIGHLIGHT]]take a few minutes to enjoy local sports and car racing decor.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]

    Suppose to be a burger.

    I spent $13 for a burger that is so gross. It was fresh meat now it's frozen and doesn't even resembles meat. I got an unsweetened tea and it tastes as if it's a very old batch. Please don't waste your money on this place.

    My onion rings - whoops a few a missing!  Too good to wait for picture- quality control! LOL

    My family and I loved to go to Coney Island when we were in Brooksville so imagine how excited we are to have our very own Coney Island Dogs here in Citrus County! It's in a convenient location on Hwy 44 with easy access to their food WITH a drive through!!! This review is for the drive through experience only. Nice big drive through sign with a decent speaker system. We were greeted promptly and gave our order without difficulty. Pulled up to the window and were served our food within a few minutes from a friendly employee. We decided to stay in our car in their parking lot to eat even though they do provide outdoor seating. Just too hot to breathe. I ordered a footlong dog with onions, sauerkraut and mustard and a large order of onion rings. We had ice water in the car do we didn't order any drinks. My footlong dog did not disappoint. A perfectly steamed long bun with an equally long hot dog (no dinky dog here) topped generously with chopped onions, a squirt of yellow mustard and a pile of warm sauerkraut. Super delicious, it hit all the notes that I expected of a dog with kraut. My large portion of onion rings were huge in size, freshly made and were very good. I even had enough to share with the hubby! A very, very good drive through experience with good food. It's not fancy but when you want feel good, kid friendly food that is reminiscent of your childhood and easy on your pocketbook I definitely encourage you to give Coney Island a try!

She gave some excellent…read morerecommendations and made sure I enjoyed one of their signature cocktails, which was a great way to start the meal. I ordered the blackened mahi sandwich with seasoned fries. The fish tasted fresh, the fries were crispy and well-seasoned, and the blackened seasoning on the mahi had just the right amount of flavor without overpowering the fish. This waterfront restaurant did not disappoint. They also have an outdoor tiki bar. If you're looking for a fun, laid-back atmosphere on the water, you will find it here. You can relax with a drink, enjoy the scenery, and take in the beautiful views, especially the sunset. I'd definitely recommend Riverfront Social whether you're stopping in for lunch, grabbing drinks with friends, or looking for a casual dinner with a great view. I would love to come back the next time I'm in town. Atmosphere: 9 | 10 Service: 9.5 | 10 Food: 9 | 10

I had a bacon and mushroom pasta that was great but did need a piece of garlic bread and it would have been perfect. I had to ask our server if we could get started with drinks before we ordered. He was pleasant about it and probably just forgot? Service was just ok. Didn't really have any ambiance. It was late afternoon and the restaurant was quiet. We are new to the area and are trying out the local restaurants, so while I doubt I'll go back, if asked I would recommend them for their food quality.

The service was the highlight of the visit--the bartenders were genuinely friendly, attentive, and made me feel welcome. That's the main reason I'm giving this place two stars. The food, however, was disappointing. I ordered my burger medium, but it arrived raw in the center. The onion rings were overly greasy with a heavy, unimpressive batter. After reading other reviews, I noticed someone else had a similar experience with the patty melt, so my meal may not have been an isolated issue. The atmosphere wasn't for me either. It feels much more like a neighborhood dive bar than a restaurant, with multiple TVs, loud music, constant chatter, and live entertainment outside all competing at once. If you're looking for a lively sports bar where you can watch a game, have a drink, and socialize, this may be exactly what you're after. I prefer a quieter, more relaxed dining experience, so it simply wasn't a good fit. The restaurant also has a dog-friendly patio, which many people enjoy, though it's not something I personally look for when dining out. Overall, I think Norton's has a loyal local following, and I can understand why some people enjoy the casual bar atmosphere. For me, though, the combination of the underwhelming food and the very loud environment means I won't be returning. The staff deserved better than the meal they were serving, because their friendliness and service were the best part of the visit.

We started with the Smoked Fish Spread, and it was fresh, flavorful, and one of the best we've had. Definitely worth ordering. I had the Stuffed Shrimp (currently $33) with hush puppies. The shrimp were cooked well, and the cocktail sauce was excellent. My only suggestion would be to skip serving it on a bed of lettuce. Once the hot food is plated, the lettuce just ends up wilted and unnecessary. My wife ordered the Grouper Reuben, and it was outstanding. The grouper was perfectly cooked, the fillet was generous, and the sandwich was delicious. The drinks were good, and the atmosphere was fun and lively. The best part of our visit was our bartender, Kassi. Even with a full bar, she was friendly, attentive, and never seemed rushed. We especially enjoyed talking with her about her military connection--it added a personal touch to an already great experience. We'll definitely be back the next time we're in Homosassa. Great food, great service, and a welcoming atmosphere.
