the blue gator

awesome outdoor dining. the blue gator is pretty well known by the locals but if you are visiting the dunnellon area i recommend stopping by, by boat or by car. great atmosphere outdoor dining on the river, live music at night, very friendly staff, and dog friendly to boot! the menu has burgers,wings,seafood, beer, gator nuggets and more....did i mention beer. a great place to have a beer for sure and all i've tried thus far is good.

on the river. go by boat...they have a dock. eat out on the deck. good fried stuff.

grouper. the grouper sandwich is so delicious! blackened and grilled - super sandwich.
the staff must have stock in the place - they are super friendly and attentive.
try the black and blue burger too -
my next visit i am getting the sweet potato fries..

love the view and the food!. a friend of mine and i ate at the blue gator, and i loved it! we sat at the stools nearest the water and watched boats go up and down the withlacoochie river while we ate lunch.

i'm not usually one for blackened fish but decided to take our server's suggestion of the blackened grouper sandwich, and it was delicious! if you're in the area, this is well worth the visit!

great place to slow down and relax. blue gator is a great place to enjoy the beautiful the withalacochee river under the old oak trees. the super grouper sandwich (blackend) and onion rings are my favorite. it gets very busy so you may have to share a table and it may take a while to get your order. but sit back, relax and get to know your new diner mates, listen the the live music or watch the big screen tv. sometimes you just have to slow down and enjoy the view. you never know what you may see or who you may meet.

good wings gator bites and atmosphere. friendly staff and live music on the water. i wouldn't reco end the burgers as they are not fresh ground but more of a frozen patty.

great burgers!!. i love the food, music, decor, view but the place is disorganized and the service sucks! well to be fair it is not the servers fault but the food takes forever to get as well and as getting a drink. the food is worth the wait!! this place needs a manager that knows what they are doing!

philly cheese steaks. i you like to sit out in the fresh air and eat or drink, this is the place. there is no indoor dinning here. i live on the river and take the boat the 12 miles down river to tie up and eat here. i do like it.

angler family resort. anglers family resort in dunnellon florida is a great place for vacation. they have all types of activities like fishing, boating, airboat tours, singing river tours, and a new restaurant called the blue gator. they also have a motel with full kitchenettes in them. the singing river tours are awesome because this gives you the opportunity to relax and enjoy the rainbow and withlacoochee rivers. the rainbow river is so beautiful because you can see to the bottom of the river and everything underneath the water. this is a restricted river meaning there are no bottles or disposables aloud on this river because they want to keep it beautiful. captain jon semmes makes this singing river tour the best with his guitar and very thorough explanation of the river and its heritage. the airboat tours with captain bob jewett can be very interesting too. he specializes in alligator airboat tours, which make it very interesting. if you are afraid of alligators i would say don't go on this ride with captain bob because alligators are most likely going to be seen. if you have not been on an airboat in your lifetime, this is something you should try because it is a lot of fun. in the evening at angler's family resort you can go down to the blue gator restaurant and have fun with karaoke or just some fun live music. nothing could better show you how much fun you will have than just showing up there with an open mind and ready to have some fun!

love it
