Originally the Legacy Restaurant had Nancy Lopez's name on it but when she started to get complaints from patrons that "there was a fly in my soup!", she asked to have her name only associated with the "country club" (5 year endorsement contract that includes the use of a designer home in Briar Meadow) and not the restaurant. So they had to change all the signs and state licensing within the first year it was opened to remove her name. She would correct you if you said the "Nancy Lopez restaurant". Hope this helps. Skip |

Legacy Restaurant
I think those of us who have been Villagers for quite a while just automatically call it "Lopez." We've been here since 2005, and it has always been our favorite--a cut above all the other restaurants in town, and certainly way above most of the other "country club" restaurants. Palmer is probably the second best. It's interesting that these two were the first two country club restaurants, then the others followed as more people moved in. The others are pretty much all the same--mediocre menu and food. It's really too bad that no other restaurants of Legacy's caliber have come here. Rose Plantation is the closest in quality and presentation, but the ambience is not great.

I agree. Dinner at The Legacy/Nancy Lopez was impressive. Recently, I had their roasted duck (extra crispy) and it was out of this world. The service was outstanding. Everyone in our party was favorably impressed with the food, the service and the admosphere. It was a very enjoyable evening.

re: Legacy I took my daughter (visiting from Florence, IT) and son (visiting from Maryland) to Legacy on August 21st, 2021. Our server was new (less than a week at the restaurant). The waiter, food and service were wonderful. I have come to expect this from Legacy. re: (other country clubs) I am sure that we have all experienced spotty service and <food> at many restaurants throughout our lives. I cannot point to any of TV's country clubs as being better or worse. It does seem that the kitchen staff (and ingredients), wait staff and support staff all need to "come together" to make for a great experience. My point is that I am pleased (fortunate) to have so many options among the country clubs in TV. Shout Out Speaking to those of you around whom I have had the pleasure of dining when alone, it is sometimes to my amusement (and envy) that you are having such a good time. Note Due to the pandemic, I typically eat at odd hours when the verandas / porches are quiet. Final Thought As for the individual who posted making the spam sandwich, I will acknowledge the satisfaction of making my own, with my own healthy (organic, 100% grass fed...) ingredients. Yet, there is something <extra> special about dining in a group and forging new memories with friends. |

Thank you for the correction. You're right, of course. Guess I was just using 2005 as my starting point.

Palmer is hit or miss. Lopez is solid.

Michael is outstanding! He goes out of the way to make you feel welcome and that all of your needs are accommodated! The people at Lopez are one of the key factors to keep people coming back!
