Cody’s at Sumter
 

Went there the other day for an early dinner. While chewing my salad, I felt something hard. I took a small piece of black plastic out of my mouth. Complained to the waitress who brought over the manager. He took the plastic and asked if we wanted another salad but I declined. Had the rest of our meals and as the waitress was giving us our checks she said, “ we found out what it is.” Turns out the ladle for the dressing was falling apart and chipped off in the salad. No offer to reduce our bill at all. I wasn’t in an argumentive move so we just got the heck out of there. I read another posting on this forum where someone’s wife’s “to go” salad had a food prep glove in it. I just thought I would left other people know of our recent experience at Cody’s

Maybe we shouldn't eat salads at Cody's?

I always judge the kitchen by the condition of the bathroom. If the bathroom is nasty, the kitchen is the same.

I do the same thing!

We actually have gone to Cody’s quite often and we have a brand new one within walking distance from our villa. I really want to like this place but they are making it difficult.

I stopped going there for lunch because they advertise 2 for 1 draft beer. False advertising. They charge over $4.50 for two beers and you cannot buy just one beer. I would rather go to a country club where you can get a draft beer for $2.50.

"Me too"

Well, thanx for reporting...but...that seems to me to equal two salad incidents out of how many salads served? What are the odds?

I attended a business dinner one time and five of us ate in one of the finest downtown restaurants in Cincinnati. I noticed a guest poking at his salad with his fork and asked what the problem might be. He picked up his plate and showed it to me. After staring at it for a few minutes the problem was identified. In the middle of the plate was greenest grasshopper I have ever seen alive and staring back. He blended in perfectly with the salad greens. We asked the maître de to come over and pointed to the creature. They comped us a $ 50.00 bottle of wine along with free deserts. A somewhat different policy then Cody's follows obviously. It's amazing, not even a draft. The bad PR on TOTV will cost them a thousand times the cost of a few brews, which might have resulted in a favorable review.

Their 2 =fer drinks are really a shame-their 2-fer do not equal one good drink @ Arnold Palmers or the Bonefish--small glasses & short pours

Quit going there, every time we were there, always a problem. Sent food back to many times. Have been going to Texas Roadhouse instead.

Cody's seems to has been going downhill over the last couple years....slower service, quality of food and cleanliness to name a couple things. When we first started going there about 4 years ago it was good.....wonder what happened? We stopped going about 6 months ago and have no urge to return.

The newest Cody's up by Mulberry Grove is the best one of the three in The Villages, IMHO.

Stopped going 2 years ago and do not miss it. If invited by friends, I decline!
