Just found you guys! I have been researching The Villages when your UA-cam videos were recommended and I have loved what have seen so far. The restaurant reviews are fun and full of great non-pretentious information. I subscribed to your channel immediately. Looking forward to watching tons more :) Thanks
Do you follow The Village’s Newcomers “, Linda & Jerry ? They are fantastic and provide excellent information about life in the villages . You can always learn a lot from their comment section . I live in Jupiter and my brother lives in the villages .. l just found this young couple ( on this video ) and they do an excellent job with the village’s restaurants ( even if l don’t always agree ) … The Flying Biscuit does have incredible grits . If you like your biscuits a bit more baked .. just ask the waitress and she will look for a browner biscuit.
I'm surprised Bluefin wasn't even on your list. It's my favorite Villages restaurant. We've eaten there many times and never been disappointed DELICIOUSNESS!
Hello! We only did the top five from the places we have currently been to. We have not been to Bluefin yet but since you say it is great, we will put it on the list of place to try! Thanks for watching!
Hands down the best restaurant, and value, in The Villages is Sakura, a Japanese restaurant with some of the freshest Japanese food we have ever had. Their bento box lunches are so good and for $15 are impossible to beat. Try it.
Agree, Loved the Flying Biscuit!! I had never had grits either but LOVED them!! Have you tried Napoleo's yet off of 301? We have heard great things about their Italian food but have not been yet. We will have to go try Roberto's Never been. Thanks so much for your reviews!
This is so awesome! I wish I had asked for your autograph when you guys were out here visiting! You guys are going to have your own t.v. show or even channel one day. This was so fun to watch and we are so excited to watch more!
Hey! Thanks for watching! We appreciate it 😀. If you have any ideas for us, let us know! We can't wait to visit again and stay tuned for some more videos!! Miss you guys!
Love you guys! We have a second home in the villages and eat at a lot of the places you have visited. Lots of great food! I would have guessed that Altem was your last name. Fun to get that new piece of trivia. Keep up the good work and we will keep watching. We watch from northern Indiana and the villages when we are there.
Great video! now we have a list of places to try outside the Theam parks when we get down to Florida October thru November. best deli in your area might be a good video (best sandwich)👍👍
Love the Flying Biscuit learned it from your video. Now I go there once a week for breakfast. I get the waffle breakfast my favorite, potatoes inside of grits. It was a great waffle I make my own waffle at home there’s is a match to mine.
My wife was a very good cook, a gourmet cook but she always made me make waffles. Everyone likes them and I don’t know why. A friend’s wife wanted the recipe. I said it on the Bisquick box and the only thing I do different is add 2 eggs instead of 1 then add pecans to the batter. The second egg makes it stand up better and Fluffier. That’s all I do differently.
We really liked #1 a lot too 😍😀😉 We will have to try out McGrady’s Pub & the Lighthouse Bar & Grill. Jim’s birthday was Saturday & I took him to VKI Japanese Steak House @ Sumter Landing. The food was delicious at the hibachi table, especially the scallops!! Service was great too!! Keep those fantastic reviews coming!!
Great video! We enjoyed seeing you in this format. We agree on the Flying Biscuit …. biscuit! 🤔 McGrady’s would not have made our top 20 but that is probably because we are British 🇬🇧 🤣🤣 Cannot wait to go to Roberto’s in a couple of weeks so thanks for that review. Have a great long weekend!
Hello! Haha thank you! Appreciate it! Fair enough on the McGrady's lol. Can't wait for you to try Roberto's! We are going to enjoy our long weekend and will be filming some things. Have a great weekend!
Hello! Thank you for the suggestion. We added it to the list. We would love some stinkin' good cheese curds so can't wait to go there!!! Thanks for watching!
Going to visit the villages soon and will be checking out these restaurants during our stay… on a side note.. where did u get the picture that is behind you? It’s gorgeous and I couldn’t even see all of it!
Oh awesome! Let us know what you think! There are so many good places to try and we hope you have fun! We got that picture at Kirkland’s! They may still have it there.
One Add on... The Rose Plantation in Fruitland Park. It's expensive and something that I would reserve for a special occasion like an Anniversary. Oh and dress up... not a dress code but it's not the type of place to go looking like a slouch..
I know i already have commented on this older video, on The Flying Biscuit is my home for breakfast. They give a punch card after you pay for your 7th meal you get the 8th free I’m on my 9th punch card I’ve only lived here for 2 years, that doesn’t count for the times I didn’t know about the card. Needless to say I’m well known there also I give a generous tip.
The Flying Biscuit or something was closed down for a little bit because the Food Admin. or something found all kinds of stuff to close them down. Good food though.
We enjoy your channel, but I am lost on this list. Not one country club mentioned? Most of our best meals have been at one of the CC's. Our number one restaurant is at Nancy Lopez CC. One of our worst meals was at City Fire. Where is Harvest? Where is Prima Italian Steakhouse? I'm sorry - a pizza joint is number one?
Hello! A couple things: 1) This video is labeled our top 5 restaurants. With that being said, these are the ones that we enjoy. Everyone is free to choose their own top 5; those may be different than ours, which is totally fine! Everyone has a right to their own favorites. 2) Our top five consists of only the places we have filmed and been to. If you have followed our channel for a little while, you can see that there is not a video at a country club, Nancy Lopez CC, or Prima Italian Steakhouse. So those wouldn't be included. 3) Roberto's is an authentic Italian restaurant that many people told us to go to. Once we went, it was amazing. After posting this video, we can say that a large number of viewers agreed and also have gone, based off of this recommendation, and have greatly enjoyed it. With that being said, we appreciate the support and the views and everyone is free to decide what place is their favorite! Thanks for watching!
Thanks for the compliment! As far as the audio goes, we both are using a mic on the table and have spoken with several people who have said the audio sounded great and they could hear us loud and clear. A solution for you to try would be to try it on another device. On our end, our volume levels are high and even in our editing software, our voices are equally picked up so we would recommend making sure your volume is up all the way and try another device.
Hello! We test the volume each time we post a video. We make sure the volume is where it’s supposed to be. Sometimes it depends on what device you are on.
I like FB waffles, do not like chicken sausage, never had luck at Light House, City Fire was okay, we like Red Sauce pizza. Taste in food is subjective we think McCalls chicken is over rated.
Very true that each person will have their own preferences on which food they like. These are our top ones because they have tasted good and we have enjoyed them. Thanks for watching!

Very impressive. There are a number of BQ joints in TV and outside the bubble. You guys should look into those.
Will do! If you have any suggestions, let us know!
Nice video! Good job.
Thanks so much! We appreciate that!
Definitely will go to Roberto’s now. I had not heard of it.
One of our top favorite restaurants! Roberto is such a nice person. We have a few videos on it but let us know what you think when you go!

The limoncello cake at Roberto’s is KILLER!!!
Their desserts are so amazing!!! Going to have to try them all sometime. Is that your fav? Thanks so much for watching!
I was there in April and ate at the lighthouse,very good… if you like piña colada’s it was the best I ever had…
Definitely will have to try the pina colada! Thank you for the suggestion and thanks for watching!
Please try Willys in Sawgrass. Make sure you try their cheese curds. I’ll bet you’ll rate them stinkin good!
Hello! Thank you for the suggestion. We added it to the list. We would love some stinkin' good cheese curds so can't wait to go there!!! Thanks for watching!
Have you guys been to the Wolfgang Puck Kitchen + Bar on Brownwood Blvd? Great flatbreads!
We have not but just added it to our list! Thanks for sharing and thanks for watching!
You two couldn't be cuter. Love your videos.
Thanks so much! We appreciate it! 😀

No Harvest at Brownwood??? It is amazing.. Also Bluefin
Hello! We have been to Harvest and it was good! Have not been to Bluefin yet but have heard it is great!
Try Reveille for the cinnamon Roll pancakes...Magnolia Plaza
Will do! Thank you!
This one and Tony’s review, nice tember parts
Thanks!
Is the pizza in Spanish Springs good?
One Add on... The Rose Plantation in Fruitland Park. It's expensive and something that I would reserve for a special occasion like an Anniversary. Oh and dress up... not a dress code but it's not the type of place to go looking like a slouch..
Awesome. Thank you! Many places we haven't heard of yet so appreciate it!
I know i already have commented on this older video, on The Flying Biscuit is my home for breakfast.

Needless to say I’m well known there also I give a generous tip.
That is awesome! We need to do a refresh review out there. It’s nice they have a punch card. Glad you enjoy it!
mcgrady's have corn beef and cabbage Friday St. Patrick's Day should I make a reservation
I’m sure it will be a popular spot! Reservations are always a good idea on special event days.
You guys been to Wolfgang Pucks yet?
Not yet! We definitely want to go check it out!
Can I share your video in my page?
Absolutely! Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you 😊
@@lindaosorio2187 you are welcome!
The Flying Biscuit or something was closed down for a little bit because the Food Admin. or something found all kinds of stuff to close them down. Good food though.
Are they back open?
Love the videos!! The mug club from McGrady's was done through a lottery. There are 300 mugs and thousands of people submitted apps.
That is good to know! It must have been a very popular thing for them to do. So cool! Thanks for watching!
So next time you go to Flying Biscuit get raspberry sauce for your grits. You have to ask.
That sounds amazing! We will have to try that. Thanks!
I love the wave! Come join us! :)
Haha thanks! Appreciate it!
Alex, do your parents live in The Villages?
Hello! They do not. Thanks for asking!
We enjoy your channel, but I am lost on this list.
Not one country club mentioned?
Most of our best meals have been at one of the CC's.
Our number one restaurant is at Nancy Lopez CC.
One of our worst meals was at City Fire.
Where is Harvest?
Where is Prima Italian Steakhouse?
I'm sorry - a pizza joint is number one?

@@thealtemlife Sorry if I came off pissy. Must have woke up on the wrong side of the earth. I enjoy your channel - peace out :)
Thanks! We appreciate the support. Enjoy your day!
I agree, we went to City Fire once for lunch and it was awful--we will not be back!
Roy,Roy,Roy, what happened to that easy going happy guy.
Would love to see a collaboration with Jerry and Linda The Villages Florida Newcomers plus they have a lot of experience with audio and Cameras.
Hello! Thanks for the suggestion and thanks so much for watching!
Do you guys live in TV? You don’t look retired.
Haha we do not. Thanks for watching!
Great video, but her audio is TOO LOW! Please give her a microphone!
Thanks for the compliment! As far as the audio goes, we both are using a mic on the table and have spoken with several people who have said the audio sounded great and they could hear us loud and clear. A solution for you to try would be to try it on another device. On our end, our volume levels are high and even in our editing software, our voices are equally picked up so we would recommend making sure your volume is up all the way and try another device.
I have a little trouble hearing but I heard everything fine from both
Roberto,s is the best
Agreed! Thanks for watching!
Am a thick crust pizza guy. Don’t like thin crust
Fair enough! We can go either way on the crust but we definitely like good crust lol!
Are these guys 55 or older?
Nope!
Hope your Salmon wasn't farmed raised. Wonder if you two asked?
Not sure if it was or wasn’t!
Sorry but the only one I agree with is Roberto’s.
That is why there are so many different restaurants to choose from because everyone will have a different opinion.😀Thanks for watching!
Volume too low
Hello! We test the volume each time we post a video. We make sure the volume is where it’s supposed to be. Sometimes it depends on what device you are on.
Very neutral in the reviews
Thanks!

Artmans bar b q, on 42
It was a great spot! We need to go back!
You are very young to be reviewing in a 55 and older place lol
Haha we sure are but at least there is no age limit at the restaurants! Thanks for watching!
Agree !!!!!!!!
Agree with Roberto's - I eat there 1x month. McGrady's - sucks, over priced, over rated and NOTHING - NOTHING like a traditional Pub - not even close.
Roberto’s so good! Last time we were at McGradys, really enjoyed it. Thanks for watching!
You must not get out much
Definitely get out all the time. Feel free not to watch!
Had the worse pizza ever at Robertos.
Sorry to hear that. We absolutely loved it!
I like you restaurants review, but the guy talks like he's talking to 1st graders
😂
