Belle Glade - Country Club Restaurant

I ordered baked cod. It was so overcooked that I couldn’t cut it with a fork. The manager respectfully offered me an alternative meal, but serving fish in such a heinously overcooked condition is inexcusable. I overheard other customers also complaining about the fish. Belle Glade is crossed off my list of village restaurants.

I literally just rated this “restaurant” for lunch and gave them 5*… BUT we went to the Kenny Rodger’s/Dolly Parton dinner show ($35 for the meal & $30 for the show, per person). WHAT A RIP OFF! First of all, who schedules a dinner show in FLORIDA OUTSIDE in JULY? And with crappy/barely working ceiling fans! OMG!! Salads had obviously been sitting on the table for at least 30 mins+ — lettuce was wilted (from the heat), rolls were just as bad and the butter was melted. Service was sooooo slow! Not sure if they were understaffed or we just had a slow waitress. She was nice - just very slow. Salad was disgusting… I’ve never been to an event and/or restaurant where they put “chopped” olives all over the salad. Normally, they put whole olives so if you don’t want them, you can remove. NOPE, not this salad. Dinner was “ok”. I ordered the vegetarian rigatoni. It was warm, almost BUT the pasta was cooked correctly on a high note. The other dish we had was the pork loin… I think they served a child’s portion to my husband. There was plenty of mashed potatoes, and mixed veggies but the pork was barely noticeable on the plate. THEN the entertainment… “FAKE” Kenny Rodger’s was passable — but HOLY COW… Dolly Parton sounded like Alvin and the Chipmunks! She was off key, and awful! What a disappointing evening and we spent almost $190. If this is the type of “talent” VOCALS UNLIMITED hires — we won’t be attending any more of their events. I recommend other customers verify talent before you book as well!

(5 Star Bar Service!) Dallas is one of the best bartenders and bartender servers I have had at any of the Country Clubs for some time. I stopped going to Belle Glade because the former bar server had her favorites, and they were not the ladies, so service was, well, you know. Today I had a Caesar grilled chicken wrap, and it was tasty. It would be nice to have 1/2 portion lunch options. Kudos to Dallas! Great find, Mr. Fred! I'm a Sotheby's Realtor and know a kind smile and white glove service are key; Dallas has both! Thank you, Dallas! Annie Alexander

Some food comes out cold.

Service was extremely slow. Restaurant was half empty at 5:30 on a Saturday night.
Waited a long time for waitress to take our order and then even longer to get our food.
Manager walked by table several times but never stopped to ask how everything was.
Food was mediocre but at least hot when we received it an hour after placing our order.

We just had an excellent Ladies lunch @ Belle Glade. From the reservation process to the food, service and accommodations was an exceptional experience . I’ll like to name a few of the staff that always makes us feel welcome and accommodate all our requests with a smile , Sierra, Joseph, Lucy (our waitress yesterday)and all the staff,
Thank you!!

We had another wonderful annual girls trip dinner! Amazing service and we are grateful for the photos. Thank you!

Annaliyah was wonderful providing unbelievable service. Reginald the Manager was attentive to all our needs. It was a cold night and they ensured while sitting on the patio we were taken care of with heaters. Food was delish. Will be back:)

My wife and I are new to The Villages and were looking for a new restaurant at which to celebrate our 52nd wedding anniversary. We decided to try out the Belle Glade Country Club restaurant in The Villages, FL.

Our server, Natalie D. was outstanding! She was very upbeat and attentive to our needs. My wife's Chicken Caprese was great, and my NY Strip steak was very tasty.

Natalie and the management staff were very friendly. They made it a point to stop by our table to check on our needs.

The best part was their attention to the detail of our special occasion, which was our 52nd anniversary. The cost of my wife's dessert was removed from the bill, and they even supplied a lovely extra dessert acknowledging our special occasion (see photo attached).

We would recommend this restaurant and server, Natalie D. If you are celebrating a special occasion, be sure to add that information when you fill out the online reservation form.

P.S. Be sure to ask for a quite spot to dine (if available) as the bar area can get rather noisy ... :-)

I hosted a group of 3 couples as a minor celebration. I picked Belle Glade because I’d had several good lunches there and because of a special item on their menu “Beef Wellington”.
We first ordered an appetizer of Calamari. It was so overcooked that we couldn’t chew it. Waitress called one of the managers, Reginald. He took the remaining calamari back to the kitchen. Later he told me that they had stopped serving calamari. He also took the calamari off the bill.
Next, 5 of the 6 guests ordered the Beef Wellington based on my enthusiastic recommendation. Beef Wellington should be cooked to a medium to medium rare temperature. Every one of the 5 were cooked to well done and beyond. Once again Reginald was called. He agreed and offered free deserts for everyone stating that the owners wanted satisfied diners.
My wife took one of her two Wellingtons home to give to our dog. He didn’t seem to mind the overcooked steak.
Overall, Reginald was the only reason I didn’t give this review a one or two star. The cost, including tip, was $256. Certainly way overpriced for what we received.

I am a fan of Belle Glade, we dine here often. The service is good and the food is excellent. Atmosphere is very pleasant.
