Restaurants in Alachua

Everything was on point and delicious. Highlights of the night were the blueberry butter and bread, ribeye and cheesecake. Would definitely recommend.

We had a quiet booth in the front of the restaurant across from the beautiful mahogany English style bar. This location was perfect for a private dining experience. The service was exceptional. We were given time to enjoy our meal and not feel rushed which is rare when compared with most restaurants in Gainesville. We ordered a ribeye steak with brandy pepper sauce. Cooked exactly as we requested and served on a warm plate. The jalapeño stuffed appetizer was exceptional. We look forward to going back.

Such a great time! Our anniversary dinner was delicious, elegant, and we received top tier service. On arrival, we found a 4x6 framed "Happy Anniversary" sign on our table, along with a handwritten card from the staff, wishing us a happy anniversary and thanking us for celebrating at Shula's. It was a very nice, personal touch and an extra level of service. Our server was attentive, friendly, and timely. He cheerfully helped us pair wines with our meals (and did an excellent job) and helped us navigate the dessert menu's wide variety of options. And as an anniversary gift, Shula's gave us dessert complimentary! Our food came out in a timely manner and was delicious. I have a garlic and onion intolerance and receiving flavorful meals when dining out is a challenge, but the Shula chef prepared a beautifully flavored seabass for me and even prepared a customized sauce --an accompaniment I usually have to forgo when dining out! I can't express how happy I am when I can eat a flavorful meal despite my garlic/onion intolerance. It's always the mark of a good chef when they creatively lean into all the other available spices and flavors, and I'm always so appreciative. My husband ordered the seared scallops and they were also prepared perfectly and generous in size. The atmosphere was quiet and elegant with high back dining chairs that lent an extra level of privacy and comfort. Even though it was a Thursday night, the restaurant was full, which I was glad to see. We had a lovely experience and highly recommend the Shula's Steak House in Gainesville. We'll be back!

An excellent venue for an uninterrupted business dinner complemented by good food and discrete service.

Complementary valet packing. Nice food. Great environment. My wife and I enjoyed it. Thanks.
