I think Redwitch's comments were on point. Personally we don't eat out every night, its once a week for us, so perhaps that makes our standards higher? On my one night out I'm not going to go to a place like Golden Corral, I prefer a place with good food along with ambiance. But I do know there are a lot of people that just don't cook, and they are probably looking for bargains/cheap food, and Villages restaurants cater to that. And with the influx of snowbirds in the high season, all the restaurants are packed, so unless a place is absolutely horrible it will get a lot of customers. Although you'd think there might be at least one high end restaurant around. After all, even though we are a retirement community, it is one the size of a small city.
