I would rather ask in a nice way about any delay or quality of food issues. Wait staff can only do so much and you have to communicate with them. As someone else said, there are others that will take your table.

I have to say that we have been there 3 times for breakfast since they have opened. Very slow service, even though they did not seem busy. It also took a long time to bring coffee/tea/juice, etc. while looking over the menu. Food has been delicious though, and the portions are large and reasonably priced.

I would suggest frequenting the 'somewhat forgotten' Spanish Springs Town Square (especially in the winter.) The lines and wait times tend to be shorter. Yes, I understand it may be a hike depending on your location in The Villages. However, in the '80's, if you didn't want to eat in either restaurant (OBH CC or Silver Lake,) we thought nothing of heading to Ocala for meals. The Villages has too many people on property in the winter and not enough patrons on property in the summer. The managers and owners of the establishments every year struggle staffing up for the winter.....how much will we need?.......and shrinking the staff for the summer. The TRUE manager, in my opinion, would inform you up front (even if tables are open) you won't be seated because you are not going to have to deal with the aggravation of waiting. For me, I'd rather be told it'll be a 30 minute wait up front because <the reason>....this way I can move to plan B rather than let me get invested in plan A and have a totally miserable experience.

When you get to the fork in the road (or at TooJays), take it.

I love Toojays in both SS and LSL, however, I have been to Brownwood twice now and the food has not been good and usually cold. I have also heard numerous other people complain about the Brownwood restaurant. As I was walking in the last time, a couple walking out was complaining about service to the hostess. I have not had an issue with service, but the food is not good. So many complaints about them, they surely must be aware. No I did not complain, I went twice and have heard too may other complaints. They need to fix this. Not saying I absolutely won't go back, but prefer Codys or Gators. SS and LSL are great.

Never have that problem at Toojays in Spanish Springs nor LSL......The food is outstanding and no Establishment near or around the Villages comes CLOSE to the diversity of their menu and Bakery......remember, we are in the middle of the busiest month in all of the Villages every year........
