This was our first time here. I've been wanting to go to Beanie's for a long time because everyone raves about their chicken wings. Then St. Patrick's Day rolls around, and everyone is saying they have the best corned beef & cabbage! So, we finally decided to go! I looooved the corned beef... it was so moist & tasty. The carrots & potatoes were bland, but I just added a little salt & pepper which made it perfect. The corned beef is already flavorful & has enough salt so it's good that they didn't salt up the carrots & potatoes since everyone has different levels of salt preference. I loved the blackened dry rub wings! Hubby ordered the HOT chicken wings, which he also really liked! He also ordered a Chicago hot dog, which he was disappointed with because it didn't have the pickle & sport peppers in it. He also ordered the Reuben, which he really liked. We both really liked Beanie's & would definitely come back again to try more of their regular menu items. We both thought this was a divey restaurant, which is why we didn't rush to go here. We were wrong though! Beanie's doesn't look great from the outside, but it's pretty nice inside. It's not divey at all. All of the servers were super nice.
This was all of our first time here. Both of our moms never had hot pot before today, but they both ended up loving it. Yum Yum was really YUM! Our waitress was super nice. The restaurant is really clean. I really love the rotating conveyor belt! Hubby ordered the Mala Spicy Soup Base, which was actually really spicy. Hubby was very happy with the spice level. The rest of us ordered the pork bone broth, which was really good. I loved the dumplings, fatty beef & regular beef. Complementary mango helado was delicious too! I would definitely come back here again.

Thank you Rose for the wonderful review. We are greatly appreciated.
This was our first time here. This place is not very big, but we got a table for 4 right away on a Wednesday night. There is a lot of outdoor seating, but it was too cold to sit outside. Our waitress was really nice. We started with the meatball & ricotta appetizer, which was DELICIOUS. We also ordered cheesy garlic bread which was pretty good. We ordered 2 pizzas... Marguerite (kinda bland) & Burrata w/ sausage & red pepper (this was good). It's thin crust pizza. I would give this more of a 3.5 star rating but I'll give it a 4-star for now.
This was our first time here. There's a lot of different seatings inside & outside. Our server was super nice. The food was all delicious. Hubby had the 3-meat platter w/ pulled pork, smoked turkey & brisket. I liked all of the meats, but hubby didn't like the pulled pork because he thought it was too mushy. Our moms & I all had St Louis Ribs, which were DELICIOUS!! As for the sides, the chili and Mac & cheese were really good. Brunswick stew was good after I added a dash of salt & pepper. We had smoked chicken wings & burnt ends for appetizers, which everyone LOVED. I would definitely come back here again if I'm ever in the Ocala area.
Awesome bar! Good music. Cool bartenders. We were in town only for 2 nights, and we went here both nights!
