Need a recommendation for a good restaurant. I don’t know of any Michelin star restaurants in the TV area. I have never been to any of the TV Country Clubs, perhaps one of them has a quality restaurant? It’s mom's 85th birthday. I want her to have a great experience, cost not a factor.
Thanks.

The country club restaurants are too noisy. I would suggest the Rose Plantation, The Oaks at the Continental CC, or the Chophouse.

[Papa_lecki]

Chop house, BluFin or Coasta Del Mar

Tell them the occasion, and you will have a great experience.

Mark's Prime Steakhouse in Ocala.

Chop House, Costal Del Mar, Blue Fin, or Lopez are your best bets if you want to stay in the Villages.

Stirrups at the World Equestrian Center is a very fine restaurant and it is very beautiful. Reservations are required.

Mark's and Stirrup's are both good suggestions. If you don't mind the drive and can get a reservation, Bern's in Tampa with the dessert room upstairs are another step up in our opinion. Went there for our Fiftieth Anniversary/MIL's 90th birthday and then again for Valentine's Day this year. ALL venues within The Villages are noisy IMHO.

Bring back memories of her younger years.
Take her to Denny's!
Definitely as good as majority of 'restaurants' in TV.

PS. Marks or Stirrups if Denny's not to taste!

Anyone who tells you an FMK restaurant is quality food, needs to get out ... a LOT MORE!

There's not a single quality restaurant in TV, country clubs included (or, especially).

There are no Michellin Star restaurants in Ocala. A few in Orlando.

Yelp or Trip Advisor usually have the best recommendations: https://www.tripadvisor.com/Restaura...a_Florida.html

Dr phillips restaurant row in Orlando. Many good choices.

This one is good enough for Jagger, Pele and other famous people. A 5-star fine dining restaurant in Orlando along with a reputation that has actually allured celebrities, dignitaries, and professionals for over thirty years.

Turner's Kitchen in Leesburg. They will not seat groups. Most tables are for 4 or less. One or two tables accommodate six.

Great restaurant and TV doesn't exist. Tampa or Orlando are the best bet.

The World Equestrian Center is a destination place. Very expensive. Going for lunch to see the place in daylight would appeal to me. Please check the hours of the restaurants to make sure. The grounds and hotel lobby are beautiful.
