A wonderful experience!! We were a party of 6 and everyone enjoyed the time here. Food was fantastic. I had the short rib and wild mushroom risotto which was excellent. Friends had the tomahawk pork chop and that surely looked amazing. We started with calamari and shishito peppers appetizers which were tasty. On the drink side, the house lager was crisp and refreshing. The pig skin old fashion was surely an interesting cocktail and worth the try. I’ll definitely return!

WORTH EVERY PENNY. TRY TO MAKE RESERVATIONS AHEAD OF TIME. The brunch buffet has an amazing selection of different meats, sweets, and treats! The restaurant is full of awesome memorabilia. Full service bar. Excellent location. I highly recommend.

Ava was our server and she was ONE OF THE BEST we have ever had! We will definitely come back and will most definitely ask to seat in her section!! My wife is pregnant and she went out of her way to answer our questions about some food items. 12/10 stars!!

If you're ever in the Gainesville area, you have to check The Old Ball Coach's restaurant out‼️ Former University of Florida football coach has a spot called Spurrier's‼️ You will LOVE this place not only for the great food, drinks and the service, but the HISTORY of this LEDGENDARY coach‼️ You will in the posted pictures. Please be advised, if you go on a Saturday during the college football season, please get there EARLY‼️ And if you're a college football fan of the game, this place is a MUST visit‼️💯💪🏾🥃🏈🐊

My wife and I have been wanting to come here for a long time, so I wanted to treat her to a birthday celebration. We had the best time!!! We made reservations and had very little wait. The meals were amazing and Melody was an excellent server!!! We drove over from the Tampa Bay Area just for this dinner. It was well worth it. The atmosphere, food, service and total experience was phenomenal!!!! To top it all off we got to take a picture with Graham Mertz. Thanks to Kim and Freddie for making it a stellar over the top experience!!!!! Go Gators!!!!

We reserved a table and got wonderful food at Spurriers this past Saturday. This was my first time eating here and the food was delicious. I highly recommend the braised beef ! Definitely recommend reserving a table ahead of time, very thankful we did so. The desserts were also delicious. I will definitely be returning for their famous brunch
