Somewhere you need to make a reservation a few weeks in advance. Every place the size of here usually has at least one and sometimes more then one such place. I have not even found it in the surrounding area. I am sure there are a few in Orlando or Tampa, but there should be something closer.

So where do you go for that special event? I am talking about a place where the salad plus entrée is $40 plus and a good wine is $60 so you end up at well over $100 plus for two and are happy with what you paid because it was so good. And usually there are more nightly specials then there are menu items. Not a place you would go even once a month, but only when you wanted something very nice. I realize most all of us are on a fixed income, but we still want that special place once in a while. Where do you go?
