Think about the happy hour times folks, 5:00-8:00 people come in for dinner; the happy hour times are to get folks in off times. Good business decision.

We were there last night for drinks. Beautiful inside. We didn't eat, but several of our friends did & all were very happy with their meals. We are going there later today for drinks & we'll try something off the menu. Everything I saw looked great.

Default Evans Prairie golf

A correction to an earlier post of mine in this thread. According to The Daily Sun today the Evans Prairie golf course opens to the public on Saturday Nov. 3rd.

I saw golfers on the course this afternoon. Maybe they were letting the Ambassadors play.

One of my buddies said that the first people they were going to let play the course on it's official opening day were the groups that finished the Daily Sun Challenge to play all 500+ holes in The Villages.

Yes, Ambassadors played Evans Prairie today. Talked to my neighbor who is an ambassador on his way out the door.

I think the Bonifay is decorated wonderfully with it's beach-y decor and the wave look of the bar. Very nice to have that in Florida

The only thing that was disappointing about Bonifay were the swarms of flies at the outside bar and in the outdoor dining area. Hopefully, the cooler weather will get rid of them.

Best restaurant in The Villages remains the Nancy Lopez Country Club.

Hubby and I ate dinner there this evening. We enjoyed the place, the food and the service. An appetizer, two dinners and coffee ran $31 including tax. I brought home generous leftovers for my lunch tomorrow as well. Give it a try!

We went there today as well. The food was really good. And our server (Hector) was great. I thought the decor was very nice and I liked the "split dining" area. We ate outside, but I imagine that the two separate dining rooms would make it less noisy (a frequent complaint about Bonifay). So far, I'm very impressed.

I'm sure they'll work out all the little new restaurant hiccups & do an awesome job.

Thanks for the link, Skyguy! I was pleased to see that they accommodate vegetarians & they say that all food is made from scratch:

"Evan's Prairie Country Club cooks from scratch using superior quality ingredients, including local delivery of fresh produce every morning. You should expect real food, without all the preservatives and ingredients you can’t pronounce, from our kitchen."

They should proof read their "about" description for errors.
