    If, ever there was a reason to move to Florida, it is Cafe Chardonnay. Fabulous food, outstanding professional service, and one of the best wine lists around. Tonight the Mrs. had blackened grouper and I went for the rack of lamb. Both were prepared to perfection. Friendly staff. Reasonable prices. Kind of an unlikely location, but as a result there is plenty of parking, and I sense that most of the diners are loyal locals. We are not locals but come here just to visit Cafe Chardonnay, one of our favorites anywhere.

    Outstanding food! I chose the seared tuna and avocado salad. I regularly select this type of salad at restaurants and The House version is the best version of this meal I have ever had. The service was also outstanding, the ambiance on the patio with a lovely view of the golf course during a December afternoon is perfect, and the price is very reasonable. I must return!!!

    We’ve been the Aquagriile several times and it never disappoints. The menu is very creative and delicious. The cheesy bread and deviled egg appetizers are amazing. You can choose your preparation of all their fish choices which all sound yummy. One member of our party had the Asian style mahi and I couldn’t find a crumb left on her plate. I had the fish tacos and you had a choice of2 or 3 with either a yummy salad or Parmesan fries on the side. Our waiter Alex was amazing and very knowledgeable about the menu. Great night had by all

    Did not honor time reservation time that was booked several weeks on advance. We were told they were over booked. Table they put us at was noisy by bar and too large for party of six. Conversation not easy at this picnic table. Otherwise, it was a lovey, hopping restaurant. I will try again in the future Food vert delicious. Out door table was nice.
