Went here on the recommendation of a friend for an anniversary dinner. Luckily we came early and were able to secure a table without a reservation, although that is certainly recommended. We were seated in a comfortable, quiet spot and attended to quite well by Katya herself! There was light, live music to add to the ambience. We chose the 4 course food and wine pairings and shared the different plates. Everything tasted wonderful, hope to visit again and try something new.

I must say WOW ! The atmosphere and service were great, but the food ? The food was outstanding !!!! I never thought sweet potato fries and truffle oil went together, let alone adding crab to it. 🤤🤤 I could’ve just had that but I was greedy so I also tried their Octopus & their Wagyu… I mean, the food could be a bit pricey but it is Worth it 100% ! They had live music as well which just added to the whole experience. The waitresses and chef where just marvelous. Thank you for such a pleasant evening. Definitely an Ocala staple. Please come visit Katya Vineyards.

Wow!! Blown away by the finest dining experience in nearly 2 decades!! Mer the restaurant and winery owner, plus the chef for an unbelievable menu of foods unlike any we've had in a long while. The chefs makes pairings and fresh menu items each night. Alway changing and awesome. Just look at the pics of the menu for food descriptions and wines. So surpised we had missed this place when we live not too far away. Terrific fresh foods, unhurried, attentive service, smiling faces, wonderful wines!!

A wonderful special occasion for us. The atmosphere is very upscale and elegant. We were made to feel welcome and comfortable. Staff is incredible with attention, suggestions and service. Truly a family-run operation. We enjoyed visits with the owners and chef. We were delighted with our menu choices: Steak Tartar, Black Ink Fettuccine, Scallops and a terrific Mango Guava Cheesecake for dessert. With expert and detailed advice we also tasted a couple of interesting international wines before choosing the Au Bon Chardonnay. It was a great experience and we definitely plan to come again.

Absolutely superb experience. Service was pleasant and exceptional. Menu and wine list were phenomenal and menu was exceptional. Such a wonderful birthday celebration. Will be back!

Wow! Exceptional dining experience. Romantic atmosphere with a wonderful piano player who played Gershwin and other classics. Delicious food, unique preparations, well done, great taste, perfect preparation. Nice looking wine list but we stuck with a house Cabernet which was very nice. Perfect date night, celebration restaurant or just a wonderful splurge experience. Well worth the prices!

Everything was perfect! The chef brought out all our courses himself, the plates looked amazing and the food was even better then it looked. I cannot say enough about how perfect this evening was. What a wonderful way to spend our anniversary.

High end restaurant with great food. The Chef, Tony, makes multiple stops at your table to talk to you and ensure your food is as advertised. Our food was amazing. The setting is such a beautiful place with rustic accents. It is higher end and therefore not at the low end of cost and a reservation is required. But it is worth it!! Great wine selections from Vineyards all over the world. Definitely a place you should go if you are looking for high end cuisine in downtown Ocala. Highly recommend.

What a gem!! Last time I was in this area was well over 15 years ago. This restaurant can definitely hold its own in any big city. The staff is so warm and inviting. The Chef comes out to greet you and makes sure you’re happy with your meal. Family owned and everything made with love. The decor, music, food, attention to detail is superb. You’re not left waiting for assistance or wondering how long before you’re waited on. I don’t like wines because it always gives me a headache, but the Vlad red wine was delicious and no headache. Everything we had was delicious. The sliders, beef tartar, tuna, red pepper soup, the Carmel cheesecake were spectacular. Take your time eating the cheesecake. Let it melt in your mouth and take the other half home to enjoy the next day. I will ask for no drizzle on my slider bun. I just don’t like sticky stuff on my fingers, but the drizzle is delicious. We will definitely make it a point to stop here every time we drive up. Guys and girls take your special person here to make a lasting wonderful impression! Thank you everyone that made this evening such a delightful treat!

AMAZING food, service and WINE! We personally know the owners and this is truly a family owned business. I can't say enough of the PASSION that this family has for all the details in this restaurant.

Took my wife to Katya Vineyards for our anniversary. I have been in Ocala for 35+ years and this was the best food experience I have received. It is not a cheap experience, but well worth it. The atmosphere, food, wine, and the service was fantastic. We will be back!

We had a party of eight that went out for a special birthday dinner and Katya's indeed made it special. The chef's passion for his craft comes through on every dish served to the table. The service is appropriate, unpretentious, lighthearted, and fun.

I wanted to treat my mom, grandma & sister to a special dinner to celebrate my Mom’s 50th birthday. I had did some digging online to find a few nice restaurants and came across Katya. Words cannot describe how amazing my experience has been, from my first call to them discussing my reservation, all the way to saying goodbye on our way out. Katya, her sweet parents & Chef completely surpassed our expectations. Kathryn helped me make our dinner extra special with a beautiful hand-written birthday card, sparkles at the table, and a delicious bottle of wine and cheese board awaiting us at our table. I am forever grateful to her and her family for putting in so much effort to make my mom feel SO special. We will definitely be back for more! Thank you all so much!!! If you’re reading reviews and considering dining here, don’t even give it a second thought!

What a fabulous place! Everything was perfect. The owners. The service. The ambience. The wine. And, of course, the food. It was exquisite. Yes it is costly, but in this case you definitely get what you pay for. I highly recommend Katya Vineyards for a delightful experience.

Wow! An absolutely amazing and delicious dinner with friends made even better with the excellent service. We all enjoyed a wonderful evening celebrating my birthday together. Patrons living near Ocala are fortunate to have this great restaurant to enjoy!

First time here and enjoyed everything! Planning on going back soon! Congrats 👏 👏
