GrassHopper is a optional ingredient in Sofrito. A little crunchy though.

Isn't there an old joke about taking "Viagra" .... 1/2 a pill at a time just so you don't get your shoes wet?

Wow - unbelievable how everyone wants to jump on the bit$$ing wagon - I find most of these stories just that - stories. Someone heard this from someone who heard it from someone... and on and on. If you search, you will find stories about every single restaurant in the area.

I have been to Cody's many times - go to all 3 of them. Yes, occasionally the food is just OK, most times pretty good, and once in a great while it's terrible. When it's terrible, I talk to a manager and the issue has always been taken care of. I'm not sure what bathroom the poster went into, but I have never seen any of the bathrooms in a "nasty" condition. I'm not sure what "nasty" means... but they have always been clean and don't stink.

Cody's in Brownwood has the coldest beer of all 3, Lake Sumter has the best view, and Mulberry is a short walk for me All 3 have some of the best music every night in The Villages.

The only way to avoid going to a restaurant where there is an issue once in a great while is to eat at home. And what do you do when your spouse accidently drops the top from a seasoning shaker in the salad? Post here - haha!

I agree with much of what you are saying. However if I had swallowed that sharp piece of black plastic that fell off of one of their salad utensils which they admitted happened, it would have been a little different than being disappointed in a substandard meal. And nothing from the manager other than an offer for more salad.

The one time we had an issue at a Cody's it was corrected on the spot and some form of comp. No, no rubber gloves or plastic episodes but a simple mistake. I have seen the men's room in disarray because some can't seem to find the urinal much less the trash can . Plain gross.

As a teenager, I worked in a restaurant, first doing dishes, then waiting tables and then cooking. Good experience.

Wonderful owner and managers.
Their number one comment is :

In a restaurant, there is always, always, work to do! If the bathrooms are not tide y and if the workers are having fun then the kitchen and the service will fall down, so remember that. Get up and leave.

We ate at Cody's in Mulberry a couple of Sundays ago and we were very disappointed. After we were served our salad we waited over an hour for our entree to be served. We observed around us that many entrees were being returned to the kitchen. Our waitress, a sweet girl, stopped by our table several times saying our meal would be right out. It was not.... At one point I caught the attention of another waiter and asked him what was going on in the kitchen that we were not getting our food. He was very flip and said, "There's a whole lot of cooking going on." My husband had ordered stuffed pork chops and scraped the stuffing off and said it was tasteless and our green bean were mush and very over salted. I don't think we will be going back for a while until they can get their act together. By the way our waitress apologized for the long wait and received a nice tip.
