Hacienda hills country club restaurant
 

The ownership of the restaurant is changing. They are closed today and according to the tiki hut personnel will be opening under new ownership tomorrow. It is rumored that it is the people that own world of beer.

Hope the Sunday Buffet doesn't change! We went for the first time this past Sunday and it was incredible!

Years ago John McDonough (Legacy Restaurant) wanted it.
Maybe he succeeded.
Hope they bring back Brian Webster.
The Villages needs and loves him.

Agree Brian is the best chef we have found in a TV so far. Where did he go? Mis fish recipes are wonderful!

Any improvement would be appreciated. Very noisy and food is 3/10. I live in the area and would appreciate a change. Glenview CC is my favorite. When we moved here is was white table clothes and a baby grand for music.

Did I hear that the gentlemen had to wear a jacket?

Love Brian Webster's food there, but one thing HAS to be changed:

The acoustics! There is no place more echo-y in all of TV.

It is horrendous and makes "dining"--not just "eating"--impossible. When there's music, FORGET it.

Had a large group there one night for dinner. Honestly could not hear a person sitting right beside me. Ask that amplifiers be turned down and we were turned down. This group will not return.(16 people)

There is no reason for noise levels this high and I believe that in the case of the employees (waitresses) that OSHA work place rules are being violated.

Any word yet as to whom has taken over the CC or what changes are forthcoming?

Yup, bought by the franchise holders of World of Beer here in The Villages.
So says The Villages Gourmet Club's Facebook link.

love HH just as it is. I truly hope the changes if any are minimal. The pool area is the liveliest and most fun country club.

When we moved here in 2000, men had to wear a jacket in Hacienda. Their seafood buffet was awesome !

Brain was always my favorite chef in the Villages. I miss the old Santiago Club days when Robin & Caroline owned it and Brian was the chef !

El Santiago was a filthy dump!
