We went there a couple of times and price and food were good but the wait time for your order to be taken and then for the food to be served was to long especially considering no more than half the tables were filled. The wait staff was always polite.

We tried it a few times. The first time we talked to the owner and told him how good everything was and that we would be back. The next time was somewhat disappointing. The last time we went I said I would never go back. I'm not at all fussy but ordering a strip steak and getting a flat steak, overcooked, served on a wooden plate with canned vegetables was too much. (If I wanted food like that I could have stayed home ) I feel very sorry for the owners and really wish the could have made it.

Mikie was the GM. You know if he was the owner, he would not have closed just before Christmas.
Mikie is at Evan's Prairie. Going through management training. He's a great bartender but will make an awesome manager !!
His brother Andy is at Mezza Luna.

I remember all of the extremely positive comments when O'Shea took over from the Speckled Butter Bean.

Wow, how the tide turns quickly!

O'Shea did not stay even 1 year, did they?

Big turnover in restaurants. I looked at some old postings and saw one for Mr. P's in Leesburg. That place is boarded up completely. Ay Jalisco in Leesburg has been closed for a long time. TGIFriday's at Lake Sumter Landing is closed.

However, the good ones remain such as Cody's, City Fire, Red Sauce, RJ Gators.

I would bet that Luigino's at Spanish Springs goes out of business in the next year.
