Default Under water tower?

My brother and his wife were visiting and met a couple that mentioned a place for food and drinks "under the water tower". Anyone know what they were talking about? Supposed to be a nice, local place. Pat

Maybe they meant under the lighthouse, Lake Sumter Landing.

Perhaps Orange Blossom Country Club on the historic side. It's on "Water Tower Circle".

Naw...07, has to be the Lighthouse. Good item to order is the catfish with the fruity tartar sauce, YUM! Slaw is great too. But don't feed the alligators. (There are signs that remind you)

Yep... I believe the water tower at OB is the place. there is a big difference between a water tower and a light house... although both have great food! Do 'em both!!!

Cool

The Lighthouse in LSL looks more like a water tower than a lighthouse. I agree with shimpy, its the Lighthouse Grill.

The Lighthouse restaurant is called "the Lighthouse" not "Water Tower".

Has to be Orange Blossom CC Restaurant situated directly under the Water Tower.

Believe they have a German Food night also.

YOU are all absolutely right and I am full of...........wrong.

I read it but I didn't take it in. Both places are great but I am standing by the catfish at the Lighthouse.

I knew 07 had to be right. What is wrong with me???

Thanks! We will try OB. Each time my brother is here, we go to the Lighthouse, so I think it must be OB. Thanks again. Pat
