What happened that made it so awful? We've been there numerous times on a Thursday for the AUCE crablegs & have been very satisfied. Curious as to what caused your bad experience.

Sit by the door and look in when they open it.

We visited just after the remod and the hostess didn't even know there had been a remod.
The place is akin to a bowling alley restaurant; no offense if there are nice ones out there.
We did not eat there and have no plans to.
The pool looks nice though.

The Sunday Brunch at Orange Blossom for $6.99 (All you can eat) is great. But, I would advise you NOT to go there, so it won't be too crowded for the rest of us who truly enjoy it. Instead, go to one of the expensive, exclusive joints with chandeliers and have a crepe and some orange marmalade.

Why so excited about a negative post on your favorite restaurant?? People defend their favorites like it was a family member or something!! I've gotten good meals and bad meals at all of the restaurants in the Villages and you have probably too. It gets like a Cody's post, one negative comment and the fan club comes out in force..............whatever......just saying.........

Just offering my opinion, which I thought was the purpose of this exchange. Why try to stifle opinions or suggest someone is excited? Perhaps you are the one who is excited...whatever...just saying...

Recently heard through the grape vine that new ownership may be in the near future.

Probably right, I guess I was thinking about some of the other posts ( like Codys ) which has a large fan club piling on a woman who dared to post a negative experience. That and I was also getting my butt kicked in Texas Holdem while surfing the forum..................My bad, sorry....
