“Our favorite place to eat lunch and dinner.Food is always delicious and the service is excellent. Our waiter this time was Gifroy and he was top notch! It was Valentine's Day so he had a red blazer with a red tie. Aubrey the manager came by our table and we told her we liked Gifroy's jacket n tie and he was excellent. She said Gifroy wears a different jacket for each holiday! Thank you for making our Valentine lunch extra special.”

Prima Italian Steakhouse 3660 Kiessel Rd, The Villages Steak House • $$
3660 Kiessel Rd, The Villages

“Our waitress Sandy deserves a 10 rating, she made sure all our needs were met. She noticed a wobble in the table and had someone fix it. I mentioned the fettuccine under the grouper lacked flavor but the grouper was cooked fantastic. The manager showed up to discuss the fettuccine and make things right. My wifes ribeye was seasoned perfectly and was prepared to a perfect medium as she requested.There was some sort of music playing, I think??, some nice dinner music playing softly would be nice.We will return for another meal.”

Harvest Restaurant & Bar 3676 Meggison Rd, The Villages Wine Bar • $$
3676 Meggison Rd, The Villages

“We had a small gathering of friends at the new Harvest Restaurant in The Villages, Brownwood to be exact. We were seated in a small private room off the main dining area. There were eight of us, Misty took care of our table.As a waitress she got everything correct, including billing at the end of a three and a half hour meal.I enjoyed the squash soup prior to a main course meal of scallops and risotto. I paid for three meals, my wife's, my own and a dear friend. Our bill came out to $130 dollars with 4 alcoholic drinks. With tip we walked out 153 dollars lighter but a little heavier from the delicious food.We gave the Harvest Restaurant a 5 star rating due to the ambience and the service, food was excellent with no complaints from our large group.I have added some food photos.”

Chop House at Lake Sumter 1045 Old Camp Rd, The Villages Steak House • $$
1045 Old Camp Rd, The Villages

“Our first dinner at the Chop House. Pre-dinner rolls were excellent. Our server was especially accommodating. He brought me a sample of a red wine at my request. I didn’t like it and chose the Shiraz which was great. Manhattan with house bourbon was acceptable.Our dining partners thoroughly enjoyed their fig with pork medallions and pork chop.My husband and I both ordered the lamb shank. He was disappointed that it was dry. I took 2 bites, found it to be moist but I seriously disliked the mint flavor. I sent my meal back in exchange for redfish with rice (on special) which was outstanding. The creamed spinach was excellent.Our server was absolutely fantastic. We really enjoyed dining outside. We’ll go back and try different menu choices.”

“I stumbled upon this cozy restaurant one evening, looking for a place that offered both great food and a lively atmosphere, and I was not disappointed. The moment I walked in, the warmth and charm of the place struck me. It felt like stepping into a friend's inviting dining room, complete with the buzz of conversation and laughter. The menu caught my eye with its array of American classics, each with a unique twist that promised a culinary adventure.The live entertainment was the cherry on top. It turned what could have been just another dinner into a truly memorable experience, adding a vibrancy that's hard to find elsewhere. The staff were incredibly welcoming, treating me like an old friend rather than just another customer. My meal was delightful, from the first bite to the last, and the ambiance made me linger longer than I had planned. It was the perfect blend of casual comfort and refined dining, making me eager to return. This place isn't just about eating out; it's about enjoying every moment, surrounded by good vibes and even better company.”

Funny enough my son got chicken nuggets with French fries and the fries here are amazing.The only negatives I can say are it gets very busy here this location isn’t big enough to handle the crowds. Also it doesn’t seem like they have enough staff even during the slower times service can be slow or inconsistent. But still friendly. Highly recommend this place.”

“Fantastic restaurant and food. Shout out to our server LINDA, professional, attentive, pleasant, an asset to Mezza Luna. The food was delicious and we will be back soon with friends. Kristina Lee Elias sang beautifully while we sat at the bar for 1/2 an hour and through out our dinner. I feel she should try out for The Voice or Idol because my family and friends agree that she could win! She sings on Wednesday nights and the desk the rest of the nights, don’t miss out on a delicious dinner and a truly entertaining singer. The rest of the staff was terrific and did their jobs to the highest extent!”

“I must confess that I was eager to get to know this wonderful place! I had previously heard about it, I was very impressed by the warmth of the place, when you go up the stairs and open the door the feeling is cozy! We had a reservation and went straight to a private room! We receive immediate attention! The girl who helped us was great! The food is according to the local! Good starter Scallops along with a wonderful soup! The next dish was well presented and flavored according to the choice! The dessert was also appropriate! I was expecting an explosion of flavors…..but it was still really good! The bartender has a lot of experience and knows how to do his service very well! Thanks for that Macallan and my wife's cocktails!!! Without a doubt, it would be a restaurant that I would return to whenever I am invited, since it is only by invitation or by membership!”

“Serendipitous find! Two of us sat at the indoor bar mid day and enjoyed both the bar menu and regular. GAVIN the bartender made the very best mojitos and we are mojito experts. Perfectly balanced, served quickly with a smile, these are worth making our visits coincide with his bar shifts. (Tuesdays and Thursdays). The food was everything we wanted and well prepared. The social scene is happening outside if that’s your preference. Inside was quiet (mid afternoon) and conducive to conversation and connection. We could not have asked for better service or enjoyment.”

“Went to try this Scottish Pub on a recent Friday night with my wife and her parents. Made reservations through Google because the system on the restaurant web page was a little confusing because it appeared to give me confirmation for another restaurant in the ownership group…Arrived at the restaurant at our scheduled reservation time and were seated immediately in the bar area, which we were ok with, but it is a little loud. We enjoyed the atmosphere of the restaurant. Our server Tayna was super friendly and very attentive to our needs. I enjoyed a pint of their Scottish Ale. I had the fish and chips, and my white had the salad and added chicken. She commented that it was the best salad she has had in a long time. Her parents both ordered the Ruben sandwich…their only comment was that they are used to “shaved” corn been, but they both enjoyed their sandwich. The fish and chips were good. We will definitely return to try some of the other menu items. The large soft pretzel looked very good and will be on my list for next time.Vegetarian options: Salads were very fresh!”
