If you want fast service, I wouldn't recommend here. Am very happy this restaurant opened near The Villages. Check out the Olive oil which comes with bread. Can't find it anywhere else. Very tasty. Take a look at the wine selection. Bottle charge quite reasonable and selection quite good. Lemonchello cake is out of this world, European taste. Praying they will succeed. As far as I am concerned this is the Italian restaurant around here. I reviewed four times in Village Gourmet Review Section if you want to know further.

just one question, does the slow food society make you wait 2.5 hours before you get served, as I've eaten with them in Italy I can tell you NO! does a competent restaurant management offer maybe an appetizer for a table waiting for food over an hour? the answer is yes. does a manager when he shows up with food at 8:30 and is told it is too late and is asked to box it tell you that you are disrepecting him by not eating, "get out of my restaurant, you people don't know what it is like to work hard". So, fellow villagers, defend their food all you want knowing that they don't respect customers from the villages...and oh by the way of the 4 dishes brought out 3 were not what we ordered because these insulting little people don't care about their customers.
