Restaurants in Spring Hill

In bold, illuminated letters, an outdoor sign proudly proclaims the restaurant's name—Sportsters. Neon baseball and football players flank the whimsical moniker, tipping patrons off to the athletics-themed decor and Gatorade-scented air that await them beyond the entryway. Past the neon beer signs hanging in the front windows, guests will discover the classic trappings of a sports bar blended with a family-friendly atmosphere. More than 15 televisions broadcast sporting events as servers deliver draft beers, sauce-drenched wings, peel-and-eat shrimp, burgers, and pint-size portions from the kids’ menu.

Penn Station's interior, rife with dark hardwood paneling, could have been carved from the trunk of an enormous redwood. Within that space and beneath the glow of old-fashioned street lamps, taste buds globetrot by way of American-style burgers, Italian shrimp scampi, and a full Cuban menu outlining such delights as seafood paella and lime-infused chicken. While two-handing a specialty sandwich named for North Carolina's regal mountains, guests can peruse Penn Station's many antique décor pieces such as a wall-mounted carriage wheel, ceramic boots, and the original wooden flippers from Columbus's voyage across the Atlantic.

The grams of protein add up at Kally K's Steakery & Fishery, where the staff serves a surfeit of burgers, seafood, and steaks. Though the menus at the eatery's two locations differ slightly, they both showcase salmon, shrimp, sole, crab, scrod, and hefty portions of new york strip steak and roast prime rib of beef. The Spring Hill location's specialty is a baked fillet of flounder stuffed with shrimp and crabmeat au gratin. Both locations feature a salad bar for patrons who are 1/16 brontosaurus.
