I am in charge of making dinner reservations for our golf group which is about 25 people a week. I have been turned down by so many restaurants. Our usual time is between 5:30 and 6:00 p.m. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have.

Weston's BBQ, on 301, Wildwood. Very nice environment--not your typical barbecue barn.
Home - T. Weston's

When we first moved here we ate at Cattle Barron, and IIRC they had a private room that looked like it might hold around 25. Outdoors at Glenview CC might also be a possibility!

Woody's B.BQ, Wildwood, Rita's Oyster Bar Wildwood, Legends Cafe, Fruitland Park, Catle Barron. Hope that helps.

It is kind of crazy here in the Villages. Back in my home town in Illinois, all restaurants love to book large groups and usually discount the cost a little but usually offer a limited menu selection.. Here in the Villages, we find VERY FEW restaurants that will even book a neighborhood party. I would think they would love to have 75 persons ordering from a limited menu.

I want to thank you all for the suggestions. I'd like to keep the restaurants limited to The Villages. Our group only golfs the executive courses and we try to get restaurants near where we are golfing.
