Default Bang for the $$

Earlier this week we went to Havana, just got back from Chefs of Napoli lll-- well we spent $108. @ Havana, @ Chefs,$120.00

The food @ chef's blew away Havana as far as taste , quantity and presentation-- two martini's + a glass ea of pinot grigio,ea

we were give two loaf's of their great bread to go

The prices above were before tip--IMHO, Havana is a rip-off compared to Chef's

We find Havana much better than Chefs. I had the most awful veal dish at Chefs last month and we will never go back. Havana we always have good food.

Havana, like most CCs, can run hot and cold

Try Sammy,s across from chefs...pretty good EyeTalian food.

Thank you GPSMA, I looked at Sammy's menu and it does look inviting. The Chicken Francese sounds good with butter and lemon and white wine.

Online Menu of Sammy's Pizzeria & Restaurant Restaurant, Wildwood, Florida, 34785 - Zmenu

But can you get to Chef's or Sammy's in a golf cart? If not, we will take Havana.

I like both Chef's and Sammy's. Havanna hit or miss. Nice to get outside the Bubble for dinner.

I would be delighted if we could have something exactly like Sammy's menu offered at Evans Prairie or Orange Blossom Hills.

Hey, it's another typical restaurant thread:
A is better than B
B is better than A
Try C
Etcetera

Spent $109 at Havana.

Seven gin martini's, two bottles of wine.

Can't remember the meal.
