Vic Ember's in Leesburg puts out a Sunday brunch that is to die for. Everything from omlettes to carved turkey and prime rib. I strongly suggest you give it a try Shimpy.

If Lion's Den is referring to my negative report...let me clarify...our group of 17 is a team that eats out at a different Villages restaurant every Wednesday. We had a reservation at Tierra made six days previous to our arrival. We were told they weren't ready for us and had to "call in" another server(30 minutes after we arrived) to help out. We have been eating at different restaurants all around the Villages for years and never encountered such poor service..our complaint was met with indifference. Two years ago we had a dinner at Tierra on a cold January night and requested that they turn up the heat in a very cold dining room..the owner came out to "scold" us and said they are not permitted to adjust the temperature in the building...the Villages forbids it!!! Okay...we probably should have learned from that fiasco...before we left a waitress came over to our table and told some of our members to "never come back again"!!!!! I guess she really meant it!

When reviewing the dog fights going on between posters as to their opinions concerning a restaurant which usually is posed as Ï knew someone would complain......just can never please...... I think about restaurants like Giovanni's, Son Rise Café, Billy's Café and a few others were never a bad word is spoken. Why do you suppose that is so? I also think that people have bad days and so do restaurants

Reluctant
I was not going to write on this and let our experience go by the board. But after reading some of the comments I thought it would only be fair to the Tierra Del Sol Management to provide our feedback. We had heard that it was a wonderful place to have lunch and so elected to go a week or so ago.
The food was very marginal at best. The service was timely but the food was not something worth making an effort to stop by for. A salad was incorrect when brought to the table and the meat in the sandwich was tough. We both agreed we would not go back but all of this was our opinion and experience and may be different from others. |

We took 2 granddaughters there, Thursday night, for pizza. We ate in the grill, the bartender and waiter were spot on, drinks filled, extra napkins .... And delicious pizza. (Sauce a touch sweet for me,but five year old said best pizza ever!). There were noleftovers. People around us were having dinners of every kind, all seemed happy and enjoying the food. We will back to try other meals!
And btw, omg the cream puffs! |

See my other thread on Tierra del Sol. When we arrived we were asked if we had reservations and we said we did not. We were told we really should have. The dining room was empty. This was 4pm Fri. We (4) were seated at a table for 6. When waitress arrived she asked if we were there for the fish and we said no but there for the special advertised in the paper. She didn't know about it so we gave it to her. She left, came back and said it was a misprint and was for next week and there was nothing she could do. We asked for the owner/manager who was quite rude and said it was a wrong ad. We explained we came because of ad and would it be honored. He said it wasn't his fault and threw the ad on the table. No offer of apology or comps and stomped off. Not a way to run a business especially when they are running all kinds of radio ads, newspaper ads and asking people to come because the course is closed. A lady arriving when we were leaving said she overheard us and that what he did was illegal and called bait & switch. I know it's illegal in MA but did not know about FL.
