  This place is like a Hooter and Ale House all in one. Good food and great place to hang out to watch sports.

  this is a nice reasonably clean restaurant.  However, have been there twice and food is not consistent, one time was great next time not so great.  The waitress' are darling and quite respectful.  I being an old woman find that refreshing.

  The Tilted Kilt is one of those spin-offs from Hooters, only executed a little better, in my opinion. Maybe that's because it's more unique and to the liking of this Celt.  It's a relaxing place with a good sized bar and a pleasant atmosphere. If I lived in Ocala, I could see this place being a frequent stop for a few beers. Having my 2 of favorite beers on tap, Smithwicks and Hoegaarden, certainly doesn't hurt.
  
  For the rest of the review, I had heard mixed reviews on each topic: Ladies, service, and food. Starting with the "ladies", I had better scenery than some others. I'd heard tales of trashy and overweight gals in their tiny kilts and open shirts exposing generous cleavage (an outfit, btw, far superior to Hooters or any other winghouse of it's kind). I was pleasantly surprised to see only slender, attractive waitresses. Maybe that was due to Black ?
  
  Next, the service. Not good. It was fine right up until the food arrived. Once the food came, it was impossible to find or wave down our waitress. As the meal was ending and I was still sitting there with an empty beer, I finally got her attention, then watched as she carried my glass away and cleared 2 tables before bringing me another beer. I was in disbelief, especially since the place was pretty damn slow and there was no need or rush to clear the tables before getting my damn beer. I'll admit, this is the first time in many years I haven't tipped at least 20%.
  
  The food! Well, it is a pub, so don't expect much, right? I heard from a couple friends that the "Irish" food was horrid, so don't even think about a Sheppards Pie or the like. There were a couple things that sounded really good, but I was in the mood for a Cheesesteak. About as average as average can be. It was a decent size, but nothing memorable at all. The fries are boring. The mashed potatoes for my daughter were pretty bad (the waitress at least warned us about that, but there was nothing else baby friendly on the menu). I wouldn't mind trying the sausage and peppers, a flatbread, and I should have ordered some wings with the signature sweet and spicy sauce. I'm rarely in Ocala, so it's not likely I'll go back when there's a Longhorns in town.
  
  It would be a 2 star, but the atmosphere and bar bump it up to 3. If I was basing it on that alone, it might even get a 4 star as a pure drinking place (and sitting AT the bar, not at a table).
