Homosassa, Florida - Patriotic Restaurant, Flag-Waving Patrons

While Margarita Grill is a restaurant with exceptionally good food at very reasonable prices. But it is the patriotic nature of the owner that qualifies the establishment for inclusion here.

Each evening the wait staff hands out small American flags and Tommy, the owner, takes the stage. He explains that there will be a time of patriotic songs and if someone does not wish to stand and participate it is time to "Hit the Road Jack." Then the diners, waving the American flags, are invited to sing such songs as "God Bless the USA," "I'm Proud to be an American," "God Bless America" and the National Anthem. [Ralph, 06/27/2008]
