the blue gator

funplaceto eat. the blue gator is a funplaceto eat ... we had the fried shrimp basket and it was very good. in our party of four, all diners were pleased with their meals. the service staff was prompt and very friendly. the restaurant is located adjacent to a river marina which gives it a very interesting atmosphere. the restrooms are small and a bit "rustic." the first time visitor may find the entrance drive a bit tricky to find.

not worth the over priced meal you get! not that the food was all bad,but wow, when you leave aplacehungry and you have spent $40, there is a problem! i ordered grouper basket and my portion was smaller than the kids chicken tender basket. also had to ask for someone to take our order. just overall we will not be back!

everything was seasoned and cooked almost perfectly. greatplaceto eat after a long day of tubing and baking in the sun.

love this place!!. thisplaceis awesome, love the food and the view of the river. we have eaten here for years now. gator bites,ruben(to die for)crab cakes, fish sandwiches, cheese steaks ...well what more to say? but, give yourself plenty of time the servers are laid back and sometimes slow. go anyway because it is worth the wait!

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 greatplaceto have a beer for sure and all i've tried thus far is good.

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

greatplaceto slow down and relax. blue gator is a greatplaceto 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.

great burgers!!. i love the food, music, decor, view but theplaceis 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!! thisplaceneeds a manager that knows what they are doing!

angler family resort. anglers family resort in dunnellon florida is a greatplacefor 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!
