Try The Rose Plantation, you will be more popular with the family than Santa Claus. It really is nice there and the food is great.

I wonder if The Rose Plantaation will be open that day. It is on Rose Avenue in Fruitland Park.

Demshars in Spanish Springs is very good and will be open on Christmas Day.

Another vote for Rose Plantation if they're open

I thought of another fantastic place for dinner, but I don't know if it is open Christmas. The Mission Inn, Howie in The Hills, Fl. A bit of a drive, but their Brunch is fantastic. Includes everything you can think of from breakfast items, pasta stations, carving stations etc. This is a high end buffet. I do not normally like buffets, but this one is great. Only my opinion.

You intrigued me with that suggestion and in looking it up, I see they are open on Christmas day -

La Hacienda Restaurant | Mission Inn

I know this is a little off topic (although the title is "Christmas Dinner" ) but I thought many of you might enjoy it.

A great place. Make sure you don't eat the day before they have so much great food. Also, don't even think of the lap swimming pool.:bigbow:

I think Fresh Market on 466 offers take-out.

I know that Demshar's restaurant in Spanish Springs is serving a buffet on Christmas Day

All the restaurants open on Christmas Day are listed on The Villages Gourmet Club website on their SEARCH PAGE (Section 4a). Have been for years. Very comprehensive.
