Well, we went there for breakfast. Here is what we experienced, 1st service was slow, way over 35 minutes from order to food. 2nd the place is noisy, all hard surfaces. No sound absorbing materials used at all in the interior. ie sound absorbing panels, carpeted walls, etc ,etc. Whoever did the interior design should have been aware of noise control. Eggs Benedict were so so, nothing notable. Was surprised, was expecting a better experience, given the reviews.

I’ve know several long term residents here that have lived in the bubble for so long, they are not aware that so many restaurants available are actually chain restaurants. It can happen.

We go weekly, it is the only place that I have found the egg to be perfectly cooked every time. I asked if they sous vide their eggs, perfectly cooked even with 4 orders at our table.

The egg guy came out, thanked me for such a wonderful compliment and that I knew what a sous vide was. He does all of his poached eggs as ordered. I am very impressed.
Asian, yes Reveille is very good for eggs as well. I’m there at least once a week, and will continue to patronize the establishment. However as far as sides go, I’m not a huge fan of grits, and I find their fried potatoes bland and unremarkable. The hash brown casserole side at Toasted Yolk is something I am still thinking about and craving.

I eat out breakfast almost every day, and dinner at least 4-5 times per week. It’s nice to have options, so you don’t grow tired of just “one” favorite restaurant.

I find it so amusing that people think that the way things were done where they are from is the only proper way to do them.

But, I’m glad you found a place to get a breakfast like you were used to eating back home.

Depending on where you were raised, in many southern households

Shredded Potatoes
Butter
Milk or cream
Cheddar cheese
Salt pepper

Mix well and bake in the oven until brown.

Some add bacon, onion, peppers, and multitudes of different cheeses. Either way it kind of comes out crusty on top and the bottom with cheesy goodness in the middle.

Eggs, Benedict prepared properly is the same way all over the US. An English muffin lightly toasted, Canadian bacon, a perfectly cooked poached egg, hollandaise sauce, regular paprika, or smoked. Julia Childs recipe is excellent.
Newer recipes on original, have added a multitude of variation with smoked salmon, gravy, crab, lobster, steak, ham and sometimes a biscuit.

I agree. I did a review on the Newell Facebook page. I too have my favorite- an American cheese (only) omelette. Other places I have too customize a complicated mix of ingredients - and pay extra. Here it is not only on the menu but $2 LESS! There are three things to note.
1- there is an online wait list so you can get on the line before you go.
2-it is much larger than Reveille - and much noisier. I bring this up as my son has Autism and noise can be upsetting. It is isn't so loud you can't hear others at the table.
3-several of the tables are bar-stool height so some of us may not be able to sit there. On the wait list mentioned above you can request not to be on those higher chairs.

I thought this sounded like a great day in The Villages. Then, my wife asked me how far would the walk home be.
