And that means what?

Villages Gourmet Club site
 
Personally I think the those that do not like the establishment tend to NOT put their information on the Villages Gourmet Club site.

There are very few NOs for many of the restaurants that the TOTV people do not like.

It was started with good intentions but don't trust the ratings. I gave up on this site a long time ago.

Only you know how good a restaurant is.

Maybe you're the owner of that restaurant. How do we know? In any case, congratulations and good luck!

Funny EdVinMass and Skip. What a great way to end the sorta heated at times discussion about a place to eat. You have to love that. Great guys!!

yes, quoting myself again.

Ed- This is my first post and you'll notice that I did say I'll make up my own mind after I go. I'll be down in 5 weeks so I'll give it a try.

FYI: If the admins read this entire thread they'll notice that only certain people make it heated. My posts are not inteded to stir debate and as always I apoligize if it seemed that way. Yes, I'm a thousand miles away but I feel that many of my 2000+ posts have been informational albeit from a distant point of view.

"Kathie's quote from below: Tell you what!! Rather than only believe the gurmet's (LOL) site, why don't you all join me on Thursday night at Taverna Red for a wonderful night of music and karaoke with DJ Patrick and his gang. Show is from 6 to 9 and you KNOW I'll be there.... Then we will have some first-hand critique of this place."

Great restaurant!!!!! :icon_hungry:

My experience from my second visit to Taverna last night was the same as the first experience. I didn't have a reservation, was told it would be a 20 min wait to be near the small dance floor, the wait was actually only about 15 min and we were served immediately and with great efficiency. This is a well run restaurant, the food is excellent, and the staff is the best, especially the bartender, Jennifer. Say hi to her, she's adorable.

Oh yes, and the music was great! Lots of fun! Come join us on Sunday evening, we'll be there again.

Not really, just a lively debate. Nothing more.

Ditto, my Massachusetts friend!

How about knocking it off.....we aren't interested in a fight only how was the food, service, etc....it would be really hard for me to intepret the three hour comment as a wait...so let it go.

I think that's what our last few comments were doing. I'm going to try it (the restaurant) for myself in a few weeks.

not impressed
 
I thought they were over priced. my husband had a problem with his dinner and was comped 15% - better than a sharp stick in the eye! other friends had sauce spilt on head and back, mgr said the would pay for cleaning the shirt. Meal was not comped. we will not go back
