I had it Oscar style and the crab cake was the size of a half dollar and there was barely any crab meat in it. It was mostly breading. That's disappointing considering for $12, I was expecting some crab. I would come back here but I would stay away from the zucchini fries and the crab.

Folks are friendly and the neighborhood is great. (Full disclosure: my parents live in the Lakes and my dad golfs regularly.) Blossoms is the latest incarnation of the Magnolia Greens golf course clubhouse restaurant. I first reviewed it back in 2011, when it was called Magnolia Grill. While the interior may have been updated in the intervening years, the boxy space is the same. You definitely get a "golf course clubhouse restaurant" vibe here, and I assume patrons are primarily from the neighborhood, or golfers. It's a friendly place to gather and eat before or after a round of golf. Destination dining, it is not. Breakfast and lunch menus are available, and it's your basic golf course clubhouse food. A selection of salads and sandwiches at lunch, and all the breakfast basics earlier in the day. There are few gluten free options, but I was able to enjoy the Blossoms salad with homemade balsamic vinaigrette. (I heard on good authority this salad is a favorite of the ladies' golf group.) It's a large portion, and leftovers kept well for another meal the following day. My husband opted for the cheeseburger and fries, which he deemed below average. "Two star, tasted like meatloaf." The all-beef hot dog plate that wandered by our table looked good, and may be an option for me on a return visit, sans bun. Informal surveys of the regulars seem to indicate that breakfast is the best meal served at Blossoms. So get there early and fill up before hitting the links.

This review is primarily for the restaurant at Cape Fear National.

On most Friday nights, starting at 7:00 PM, there's karaoke with host and emcee Jerry Surprise. This place can get packed quickly, so it's wise to make a reservation if you want to guarantee a table. (See my earlier review for more information on the karaoke crowd. There are some superb singers each week warbling a wide variety of country, pop, and rock songs.) One of the favorites on the menu is the seared ahi tuna appetizer, which comes with soy sauce, wasabi and pickled ginger. Have it seared rare, and it is quite delicious. It's also available as an entree with a side of grilled vegetables. On the gluten free side, most of their salads can be made GF, and a recent find was the Antipasti salad. It is huge! Leftovers kept well and made a nice side salad for four the next day. (We added in more fresh lettuce and a homemade dressing.) They also were able to cut up some fresh veggies for me so I could enjoy the hummus appetizer, and they even put the pita bread on a separate plate to ensure no cross-contamination. Thoughtful touch!

I had a Greek turkey sandwich on naan with sweet potato fries, and my husband had a chicken pita wrap with sweet potato fries. I really enjoyed my sandwich. It had thin slices of turkey, little bits of cucumber and whatever spices, on naan bread. I thought it was quite tasty. The sweet potato fries, not so much. They didn't taste freshly made to me. The night before we'd eaten at The Copper Penny downtown and their sweet potato fries were perfection, so these were substandard. My husband said his pita was good. His fries were the same as mine. All in all, we enjoyed most of our food. The young woman who served us was attentive and polite, our surroundings were comfortable and calm, and we'd return during the same time of day for a meal if we had the opportunity.

We booked a mid-morning tee-time on a Sunday during August, and were surprised at how much availability there was. For the uninitiated, this is the height of beach season, and all the surrounding beaches are full up. Most places rent from Saturday to Saturday, so I suppose us being willing to golf the very first full day "there" left most people enjoying their first day at the beach instead. Boy did they miss out, we were treated to 80 degree temperatures with low humidity, very very rare for this time of year. We also got to tee off on our own as a two-some, and the whole day, we mostly did not have to wait for anyone, nor did we have a group behind us. Literally a perfect day for golf. All the staff were laid back, starter was happy to let us go off whenever we were ready and avoid pairing us with another group. The course was in immaculate shape (we played Heron and Ibis), fitting the time of year. We did not see much in the way of areas needing repair. Lush fairways and trimmed rough. Sand traps (and there were many) all in good shape. Greens were fast, but, Fred Couples designed this course so that is probably intentional. The course isn't super long, much more of a premium on accuracy. I only used driver three times, mostly opting for hybrids or 3 wood. Carts were great, and the GPS on them was not the annoying kind that will shut your cart down without warning. We were visited three times for beverages on the course, and there were conveniently placed restrooms and water. All carts have a ball and clubhead washer on them, which was so convenient. After our round, we enjoyed lunch at the restaurant. Excellent service, prices were maybe just a smidge higher than area restaurants. I had their version of fish and chips. The fish was nicely breaded and plentiful, which was most important. Home chips and ranch were decent. The cole slaw it came with however, was completely inedible to my tastes. I have never seen more mayonnaise packed into cole slaw than this one. Kind of gross. My buddy got the club sandwich, which he described as "mid" so that could use improvement. Our waitress kept the tea refills coming, even though it was such a nice day, we were still hot and in need of refreshment after playing. Overall, we would absolutely come back to this course again, and will make it a priority to play each year.
