Silver Dolphin Country Store

On our way home from visiting the Crystal River Archaeological State Park, we took a detour to Hernando Beach to visit a restaurant recommended by the newsletter “Only in Your State”. The detour was worth it. The restaurant was excellent value for money. We ate in the indoor dining room as the weather was threatening rain, but we’ll be back to eat on the very pretty patio next to the canal. The food was delicious. We started with a Spinach and Artichoke Dip served with green, red and regular color Tortilla chips, then followed with Delicious Meatloaf, mashed potatoes, baked beans and a side salad for my wife and a Grilled Hamburger Steak topped with sauteed onions and beef gravy with baked beans and french fries for me. Service from Alyssa M was great. We complemented the meal with a glass of house wine each. The total bill before tip was $61.71. Great value for money.Parking: In front of the restaurant

We came across this place driving down from Pine Island so dropped in for lunch. We had inside seating and wished i had chosen outside because I found the music too loud. My husband had the Fishermen's Platter with so much fried clam strip that he needed a box to take some home. Shame that all the fish was battered. I had the 10oz Sirloin Shrimp which was enjoyable but nothing special. I did think the prices were a tad high with lunch being just shy of $70 or £56 especially as we only ordered cokes with our meal. Our server Alyssa was vey pleasant and attentive

Wow, best lunch we've had in a few years. Friendly staff, excellent club sandwich. Will definitely return. Service was great.

We came for Father’s Day and the experience was amazing!! It’s a beautiful place, the decoration, the mini store, food and drinks were delicious and our server was the best (can’t remember her name) but she was extremely attentive and they’re pet friendly so my puppies had attention also… ??? definitely would like to come back soon!!!

Had the eggs Benedict, for breakfast, which one came with grilled shrimp and the other came with sirloin tips. Our outside table was near the water where we could see an alligator swimming. Great place!!! We will definitely eat there again when in the area.
