The McIntyre family, which has operated the restaurant since November 2020, will remain in The Villages and turn its full attention to its other property in The Villages — Lighthouse Point Bar & Grille at Lake Sumter Landing.

“We’re going to pull the entire family back together and focus all of our efforts into the Lighthouse” said Brittany McIntyre, Lighthouse Point manager. “This is our home. It’s where our hearts are.”
I'm shocked to read the same family own's both. I ate at the Lighthouse Point once and it was without a doubt, one of the worst dining experience of the last 20 years. It was horrendous.

From what I saw, the Lighthouse is more geared towards "drinking", which is a way more profitable business than selling food. It makes sense to concentrate on that location, given the scarcity of restaurant/bar help these days.
