Billy's Cafe
 

I tried Billy's for breakfast and I will not return. The Home fries if you want to call them that, were not much more then boiled potatoes, and were chopped like someone was using an ax and looked like they were just warmed on the grill.

One of the best places in TV for breakfast. Try Friday or Saturday morning.....you will have to wait.

Bills?
 

You mean Billy's?

Perception is reality!
 

Now I'm really confused...go figure!!!:loco::loco::loco:

Seriously, one person's experience can be very different than the next guy's.

That's not to say that each one's not valid.

It is just for that reason that I will post a compliment if I have a good experience, but will not post a negative comment unless I have given the establishment the proverbial "3 strikes".

I agree with Bogie. Always get a good breakfast at a reasonable price. Personally, I enjoy the home fries, but to each his own.

try the Village eatry in Plaza grande
drd

We have always enjoyed our breakfasts at Billy's!

Where is Billy's? Do enjoy the Village Eatery but always interested in trying new places

If you DID go to Billy's out on 441, I am shocked to read your comments about the home fries! They are absolutely, positively the best my husband and I have ever eaten.....truly "fried" with a wonderful, crispy crust. Oh well, I can only hope that everyone who reads your post will decide NOT to go there. The waiting lines are already far too long.

Billy's has a great Corned Beef Hash Omelet.

I can't stand Billy's. Asked for egg beaters instead of eggs for my omelet and was told no and if I didn't like it I could leave. So I did. Won't be back.

Never been to Billys.

That sounds AWFUL mean.

Did they not have them and didn't want to add to menu? They told you
that if you didn't like it you could leave? In my whole life I haven't ever heard anybody say anything so mean over something so small.

I would have left and I would have been hurt to pieces.

Hugs to you.

We went to Billy's for the first time about a month ago...thought the breakfast was tasty with that downhome diner feel to it and very reasonably priced. Mr 07 did order an egg beater omelette and there was no issue in satisfying this request. Don't know when Tex went there but our recent experience was different than his/hers. FWIW, we liked the home fries...strictly a personal taste thang.

You sure you didn't give them a little Texas attitude ... :loco:

I used to like it, always was good. But the last couple times I went it was mediocre at best. Doubt I will go back.

It was over a year ago that this happened. I meant it when I said I wouldn't go back. Can't imagine any meal would be worth the attitude and NO I didn't give them a Texas attitude, which is what by the way, Memason?

We weren't impressed either. We go to Perkins.

It was a joke! But, if you don't know what a Texas attitude is, how do you know you didn't give them one...

They are the second best breakfast place in this area. Their specialty is pancakes and waffles, but I never had a bad breakfast there.

The best is Aunt Fannie's in Belleview, they are also in Ocala, but we go to the one in Belleview. Their biscuits are to die for (enormous). Their sausage in also unbeatable.

Why would you post a negative experience that was over a year ago? Do you think they might have new cook in a year?

This was your quote on 10/19/11 about another restaurant -" Please give them another try. We need to keep the small resturants in The Villages so we don't end up with only fast-food chains. "

Did they change owners, like Gandolfos?

I just love their waffles, and the toppings are fresh, and their prices are reasonable. Like someone said, to each their own..................

That's how I like them!! I hate potatoes that are floating in grease.

Been to Perkins many times and will undoubtedly be back many time n the future. We really like what we've gotten there.

Sound's almost how I like home fries. Have to try them in the future!

Have been going to Billy's since the day they opened. The only problem started about a year ago when they started using something other than real cooked on the spot bacon which is just awful. Aside from the Bacon, which I no longer order there, if you don't like Billy's you probably shouldn't go out for breakfast.

We have been going there since Billy's opened, also. When the Asian fellow is on the grill the home fries are excellent. He is usually the cook on the days we go there so we have never had anything that wasn't terrific. It seems that everyone has his or her own idea as to what constitutes "good" home fries. I am not a home fry fanatic but I can't help sneaking some from my husband's plate. Oh, yum! They are browned very well and have just enough onion in them to make them very flavorful. I have to say that Perkins has the best pancakes around.

a great little 'hole in the wall' on 441 just south of where 466a hits 441. great breakfasts and lunch as well as very reasonable prices and the kind of friendly place where if there are no seats people will invite you to their table!
