Just went there for the 1st time the other day. The food was good and the service was ok. The only reason I might not go back is that I think it might need a cleaning. Where we were sitting you could actually see the dust and dirt hanging from the ceiling tiles above us and the floor was needing some cleaning also. It just made me wonder what the kitchen looks like. Might give it another chance to see if maybe we caught it at a bad time. Like I said food was good.

Since I moved to the Villages15 months I have enjoyed the service and food at Athens. But last week I was there with a friend, I was eating my salad and saw some kind of black flies. They reminded me of fruit flies?? A real turn off for me. No sure if I will return

Flies? Imagine that. Insects in Florida. You never know what will enter when you open a door.

Agree that a good cleaning is necessary. The outdoor patio floor needs a massive cleaning.
