Are there many restaurants or diners that serve good old comfort food in or around the villages? I eat at a few mom and pop eateries where I live and find them to have better food at more reasonable prices than chain restaurants. I do like TGIF, Ruby Tuesdays, and others, But like my comfort food also. Any help will be appreciated as this will weigh on a decision to move to TV.

The Speckled Butter Bean restaurant in Webster has great home cooking, served buffet style. Not fancy, more down home. Located about 15 miles south of TV on 301.
Go for lunch and try their fried chicken. Usually crowded, a lot of locals eat there. http://www.speckledbutterbean.com/ |

I've always thought it odd that once you leave the South, you leave good 'ol cafeteria home-cooked food. In Texas we were regulars at Luby's and Morrisons. Luby's desserts are to die for. The closet thing in TV may be Golden Corral. If you like fish/seafood, Captain Bell's in Leesburg will fill you up for around $8. with lots of good sides to choose from.

You guys are overlooking Little Bits. Webdy and Bob who live in Woodbury own this lovely little resturant and it's comfort food deluxe. Where else can you get chicken fried steak, corned beef hash and fried bologna?

There is a Picadilly's in Ocala on Main St going east (rte 40) about 1 mile on the right.
Orange Blossom Hills has comfort food on Sunday's I believe. |

I guess I must have been brought up under a rock. What is "comfort food?" How does it compare to real food?

What is comfort food I do think the originator of this topic is confusing comfort food itself with the location that serves it. For example Cane Garden makes a great meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy. Doesn't get more 'comfort' than that. Just because you're eating outdoors looking at a beautiful golf course on a gorgeous day doesn't mean it's not comfort food. |
