Harvest Restaurant & Bar - The Villages (FL)

5 /5 Judith Phillips: A culinary experience that will leave you wanting to come back for more!! My husband and I visited on a Saturday evening for our anniversary. We started at the outdoor bar. I ordered an espresso martini and my husband ordered an old fashioned. The bartender, Marissa, did an excellent job making our drinks. She took special care and made one of the best espresso martinis Ive ever drank. I even tasted my husbands old fashioned and it was wonderful. Then we moved to our reserved table on the patio. Our server Ryan was very attentive and did a wonderful job remembering everything we ordered. He brought our food in a very friendly and timely manner. He checked in on us and was very nice to talk to. He recommended the squash blossoms from the petite plates menu and they were absolutely amazing. I HIGHLY recommend you stop in and order them sometime! My husband ordered the chateau and herb buttered shrimp, steak medium. It was excellent but the cook on the steak was a bit uneven. Medium in some areas, medium rare in some, and medium to well in others So, if youre really picky about how your steak is cooked, keep that in mind. I ordered the scallop coguac feuttucini and substituted the scallops for chicken. The cognac sauce was to die for but my pasta was over cooked. I grabbed the manager, Robert, as he was walking by to give him some feedback. He was very nice and wonderful to talk with. He was apologetic for the over cooked pasta saying "yeah, I can see how overcooked it is" although he didnt offer any compensation. Im not mad about that because the food and service all around was excellent and I would return.

5 /5 Tim Brizard: Excellent experience at Harvest Restaurant. Everything was cooked well and tasted great. The Shrimp and grits is very tasty. The service was excellent. The atmosphere has an upscale feel and great ambiance. Nice wine selection.

5 /5 Amy Boatright: Very Elegant . Our waitress I believe you can see her name in photo was so nice and gave great recognitions. A great old fashion drink also that wine the other 2 ladies liked very much. They enjoyed there food. But unfortunately I did take the waitresses favorite stuffed chicken. Not her fault probably a fluke but my chicken was so dry I could even cut it with a steak knife. Its just tore at it. I hate to say anything if its just a lil thing but it was not. I told the waitress politely saying I know it wasnt her fault. We mentioned that wed like to have a nice slow relaxed lunch so take time between drinks, lunch and dessert .Which was so great not to be rushed as I was seeing a cousin my moms 1st cousin. With my mother. So lots of stories of them growing up and a fun time. Never rushed. A great place to have picked for a special occasion since it was 38 years since Ive seen her . I will say I was surprised that a manager didnt come over to offer to correct my meal choice seeing how all I had was spinage and mashed potatoes. Also that it wasnt even removed from the check. Seeing how it was a special visit and how nice it was I didnt want to ruin it by insisting on anything. But other than that I recommend it highly.

5 /5 Ardis Schmitt: Everything was absolutely perfect from the weight staff to the cocktails to the atmosphere to the delicious food and even the bread pudding dessert we highly recommend this place. It’s awesome for a lunch out on their terrace.
