What I liked about T Weston's is that it's only a short ride to Woody's

Red Witch - Burke's is my go to place too!

We know everyone has different taste and no matter how hard TWestons try's to make everyone happy, some folks will not be happy. When I am not happy with an eating establishment I just do not go back, but if I think they may change what I did not like, I let them know what I liked and did not like. Hoping folks will read reviews of eating establishments and then go try it them selves to see how they like it as compared to others who ate there...we need a variety of restaurants here in the area of The Villages, let the owners of those places know what you liked, what you did not like and maybe the owners will make changes if changes are needed, after all they are in business to make money and make US happy or they will be looking for work...The Life And Times Of Us Retired Folks.

I go to TWestons Twice a week, lunch and dinner and still enjoy it.

I disagree with the comment about negative postings. If I see restaurant with several bad comments, I am not going to eat there. Good comments will head me to good resturants.

I have not been to Westons and not planning to do so until I see better comments from a number of posters.

I frequent T Westons Smokehouse and love the look, service, and the food. Most of us have our own ideas of what BBQ and smokehouse food is but WE should say what we did not like and why, not just that we hate the food or that the food is awful. Making a statement that another smokehouse is better does not tell me anything, why is the other smokehouse better? I love trying out new places but need more information than one is bad and one is better. When I visit a place to eat and do not like it, I tell the manager or owner why I am not happy so if they want they can fix the issues, if they can not I just do not go back.

Give us a call at (352) 751-0310 or visit our website: Village Delivery

We deliver from every restaurant in, and around, The Villages!

Eating at home by way of delivery has its place, but going to T Westons in Wildwood with family and friends would be much better. T Westons Smokehouse is one of those neighborhood places that everyone should check out just to say they did and of course to try the food. We should all try the new places in our area, T Westsons has been open about a year and many folks do not even know where it is. My wife and I enjoy the neighborhood atmospher, smiles, greetings, service, and great BBQ and all that goes with BBQ. The drive in your car or a friends car to T Westons is worth the trip if you like a local neighborhood BBQ place.

Just love it when folks say they hate someting or something was awful and then describe their experience with such way out terms. No BBQ place is going to serve greasy and tasteless food since they would not be open long if they did. I have had most of T Westons BBQ and their mashed potatoes and loved them. We all have different taste, read the comments, then go and try the BBQ place your self. You will know when you walk in the door if the place is for you, if not just turn around and find another place.

[QUOTE=redwitch;747621]My ribs were all fat, no meat. I'm more than willing to give a place another chance -- figure everyone has off days but really fatty ribs in a bbq house is, to me, unforgivable. The sides were okay.[/QUOT

Have been going to T Westons for some time now and have never got a bad meal or bad service. Give them another try.

[robertwbusby]

We all have different taste, you tried the place, did not like the food so you know to try another place for BBQ next time. I love the BBQ at T Weston's and your experience with the Owner and Chef show how T Weston's goes out of their way to make their customers happy.

Ann and I made our way to T. Weston's Smoke House in Wildwood, FL around 1:00 PM for a bite to eat. As in every visit we were met at the door by a friendly face and a smile and told they were glad to see us and glad we came to their restaurant to eat.

Today I had the brisket sandwich, broccoli soup, and house salad with blue cheese and coffee. As Always the atmosphere, service, and the food were worth the drive there. Ann had the baby back ribs, broccoli soup and a beer, and loved all the items she ordered. We end up taking food home just about every time since the servings are large and we usually eat only half of what we order.

We have eaten at T. Weston's restaurant many times for lunch and dinner and never get tired of the friendly greetings we get, the quaint atmosphere of the restaurant, and of course the food and drink which is always fantastic.

For a nice down home atmosphere and great food and drink, Ann and I suggest y'all try T. Weston's Smoke House. If you like or love what the owner Aileen and co-owner Chef Tracey are doing, keep going their to eat so WE can keep them in business doing what they LOVE doing

Robert,

I gave you plenty of detail about the food in post #10. However, I neglected to say that it is also drab and unfriendly inside. I cannot imagine that you would respond with such a rant of repetitive posts, unless you are promoting the place for the owners.

I have since tried Woodys, and both the baby backs and St. Louis style ribs were moist and tasty. There is no reason for me to give T. Weston's another try.

Appreciate reading what folks think about places to eat here in The Villages area, but using words like awful does not tell me much. Most folks know from reading my comments on various web sites that I eat at TWestons weekly because I enjoy the food because to me the meat is cooked just right, taste great, smells wonderful, and all the side dishes are also cooked just right for me including the mashed potatoes. Have not eaten any elmers glue lately to compare the two.

Now that I read my own comments, guess it is hard to describe food without seeing and smelling it...

Guess the best way to determine if TWeston's food is good or not is for all who read the comments on TWeston's to go to TWeston's and try the food for your self and let us know what YOU think about the BBQ and the Sides...Smiles...Bob Busby

I'm happy the OP continues to bump this post since it reminds me not to try Weston's. After reading all of the personal opinions and experiences here, we're going to take a pass.

I was as specific as possible when I posted about my meal at T. Weston's. I did not just say the food was awful. I said the meat was very greasy and the mashed potatoes had the consistency of Elmer's Glue. I have not been back and don't plan to. Fortunately, there are other choices for BBQ - Burke's, Oakwood and Texas Stockyard.

We all have our own opinions on restaraunts, no rant just giving my opinion on TWeston's. Do not work for TWeston's as you wrote, just enjoy the food and would like to keep as many restaraunts in the area open as possible. Thanks for your note...smiling
