Restaurants near Villa Tropicana on PGA

Great place to eat! Food and drinks were amazing. Service was subpar as our lady didn’t really come check on us and would use our table as a place to put the stuff she couldn’t carry like water pitchers and to go containers.

We love this restaurant for a special occasion or when friends come to town. White table cloths and beautiful ceiling lights add elegance. Extensive wine list and the food never disappoints. Had the halibut last nite- delicious.

Our server was great. Our food was delicious! Except the vegetables – the oven roasted vegetables, broccolini, and asparagus were all undercooked in our opinion. The asparagus it came out cold to the touch or maybe room temperature? The broccolini was charred looking, but very much raw when biting into it Otherwise, though, the proteins, the appetizers, Caesar salads- so delicious! Best sashimi we have had!

Everything from start to finish was marvelous. It was Valentine's Day, so we started with a picture of ourselves in front of a beautiful valentine display that was put together by Ava. So smart – perfect photo op for the holiday. Our lunch was absolutely delicious from start to finish. We had the chicken pesto flatbread as an appetizer, then I had the filet mignon salad and my husband had the shrimp and grits. And dessert – always a special sweet treat. Our waiter, Sergio, was very attentive and met all our needs in a timely and professional manner. He was stellar. I have to mention Ava again, the general manager. She stopped by our table to chat with us and was just lovely. We were so pleased to have met her! We will definitely be back again. 

It was our first time at Cafe Chardonnay, and we will definitely go back next time we are in town. Carolyn our server was fantastic! She provided great recommendations. We started with the wild mushroom strudel and oyster Rockefeller, which were delicious. My husband ordered the short rib per Carolyn’s recommendation, and they were melt in your mouth. I had one of the specials which was very good, lots of flavor. We sat outside among the string lights, vintage wine bottles and hanging vines, it was very cute dining atmosphere. Highly recommend for a date or special occasion
