It will be interesting to see how this place does, over time. With the large number of people who constitute their market, they don't need to make everyone happy. They just need to make enough people happy to get a flow of customers willing to pay what they charge, for the services and goods they provide.
This was obviously someone's vision for an exciting, attractive venue. I will definitely check it out when I return in October, but not sure I'll bother with any of the food. To me, it sounds like someone took the current model for airport shops and restaurants and thought it would make a great concept for The Villages.
Personally, I hate airports, and I hate paying twice what I would normally expect to pay for fast food, just because I am a captive in an airport, so I don't see the appeal of duplicating that unpleasant experience voluntarily. However, there are a lot of people in TV, and I wouldn't be surprised if many of them enjoy things I don't. Different strokes, and all of that.
