Evans Prairie restaurant
 

We had dinner at Evans Prairie Wednesday. There were 8 of us. The staff was great. I wish I could say the same for the food. The seasonal vegetables served with our dinners were either canned or frozen and limp and soggy. The entrees were not impressive either. Very disappointed.

Gone down hill
 

We agree. The food is over priced for what you get. The price you pay for an entree...no salad or bread is too high. When we moved here 5 years ago it was a great place to eat but not so much any more. The menu choices have also been decreased.

Food establishments with a problem do not address the issues causing the problem.

Instead as business dwindles, they cut back and problems beget problems.

It is a shame that so many restaurants in TV, many of the CC included, settle for mediocrity.
The secret to success in the food business is no mystery.

As a general rule you get what you pay for in a restaurant or just about anywhere else. Don't we all want a great meal and service for $10? I'm afraid those days have quietly slipped away. I've been to the Country Clubs many times over the last 10 years and most of the time had a "decent" meal for,a reasonable price. With all due respect, Perhaps we have set the bar a bit too high.

I think they should invent Viagra for veggies :1rotfl:

I wonder if anyone in the group bothered to write a letter to the owner of this place.

Nah, its easier to just come on here and bash the restaurant...................

We were very disappointed in most of the country club restaurants this season, including Lopez. The food is mediocre, as is the service. It is most disconcerting that bread is not available at Evans Prairie and that the lobster on Monday nights at Lopez is rubbery and the restaurant on nights that we dined there, was so hot, we were all sweating while eating dinner. Did we complain to the management? Yes. The response was we are doing our best and we're sorry the a/c isn't working tonight. No-one told us that when we arrived. We never thought it would happen more than once, and upon inquiry with regard to the a/c when we made subsequent reservations, we were told everything was working well. That was not the case.

I sometimes wonder whether the TV restaurants take for granted that their customers will always be there because they have in essence, a captive clientele. It is too bad there isn't more and better competition.

Exactly!!

Evans Prairie and the other restaurants of the same group--by there ingredients from Gordon Food Services--this company provides different levels of food for all types of institutional customers--prisons, schools, hospitals , etc

All you are really getting is boil in the bag and microwave items--especially veggies--the kitchens in the Evans Prairie and it sisters are too small to cook from scratch or to order--got this info from a former employee
