Wonderful little place. Live music with a harmonica that was not obnoxious at all. Ordered scallops au gratin. It was like a little casserole on a bed of spinach. A little too rich for me, but delicious all the same.
Staff was very friendly.
Chef Michael came to the table personally, also went earlier in the day and purchased extra vegetables to make something for my sister in law and her kids that are vegan.

After 4 hours on the Withlocoochee State Trail we needed something to reward ourselves. The bike shop recommended the Ice Cream DR and he was right. Smooth, creamy Hersheys Ice Cream in a cute little shop sated our sweet tooths. Cones, cups, waffles cones, have it your way. The staff was very friendly and efficient. Yummy!

Great new location in downtown Inverness, right next to Connor's Gifts! It is a large location, much larger than their sites in Hernando and the Hospital. It has the best coffee to buy, we love the "Drummer Boy" and they also have tasty sandwiches and pastry.

ItalyReviewed By Vincent M - The Villages, Florida
First visit, definitely not the last. Surprised my wife with impromptu lunch. 40 minute ride but well worth it. We found Inverness a quaint and charming town and we found parking near Little Italy! We had researched Trip Advisor reviews and had to check for ourselves.
Patricia greeted us and explained seating and ordering. Went for the Italian panini and the Rosi Special, described as a surprise. Surprise me everyday with that. Cold cuts and cheeses are fresh, sliced thin, if included, roasted peppers, artichokes, other toppings just flavorful, bread is perfect for pressing. You don't need fries or cole slaw as a distraction. Enjoy the panini. Definitely coming back for dinner. BTW, Rosario looks just like on Facebook.
5. Lynns Homemade Ice Cream & Belgian Waffles

Lunns makes the ice cream. Lynns makes the waffles. All from scratch, nothing but good stuff. Yes this includes calories, but if you are going to splurge, this is the place. If you like old fasioned kind of food. Take a step back when it was natual, and good. Price reflects the amount of time and the quality of ingredients used here. Sure you can go to DQ for less, but DQ is trying hard to get flavors like this out of a can,,,,,,, cant be done.

This appears to be a popular spot. When the doors opened at 7am, there was already a number of people waiting to get inside and they seemed to get busy pretty quickly. The triple-berry french toast was very tasty and worth breaking my diet for. There is also a small bakery by the front door to get some pastries on the go.
