The chicken has a mellow, but buttery flavor with just a dash of pepper. The gravy marries everything together. I enjoy that it's not a sage or smoky sausage used. The servers are all fantastic. The food is always quick, even when people are packed like sardines into the place. This is a busy breakfast spot for a reason!

Kind, friendly and patient with a first time visitor. The prices were absolutely reasonable and the overall experience was fun and thoroughly enjoyable. The only (slight) drawback was going during the heat of the day with a hot griddle in front of us...it was a lot more than this Minnesota gal is used to. Tip: their wait list can get long - it was 2 1/2 hrs when we arrived - but we got on the list, typed the museum and took the boat cruise and our wait when we got back was only about 20 minutes. They will text you when you're table is ready and, if you let them know you're going on the boat cruise, they will hold your spot if your table is ready before you're back. Would definitely recommend!

A nicely prepared hamburger and a delightful bacon-stuffed BLT both hit the spot. We didn't get our requested medium rare, but it was tasty nonetheless. The BLT was served on toasted and buttered bread. Don't see butter much - seems to always be mayo. It was great. Having an abundance of bacon certainty sealed the deal. The cole slaw was creamy and looked and tasted freshly-made. The black beans and rice side was a pleasant surprise and delicious. Our service was prompt and efficient. This place can succeed if it keeps serving good food like we had.

After a few dinners here, hands down my favorite place in The Villages. Often times when visiting…read moreThe Villages I have to temper my expectations as to food quality and flavor. But when I first visited Harry and the Natives about 6 months ago I realized this place was different. Now, I can honestly say it's a place 'I look forward to' vs. a lot of The Villages food options which are 'places i settle for'. Pricing is fair for the quality you get. The drinks are Tiki inspired and delicious (I highly recommend the Village Dodo) and you can tell they pride themselves of freshness and quality. They have some of the best crab cakes I've ever had, a bit pricey but they are almost 100% crab (almost not binder/filler) and if you know the price of crab these days you'd understand the pricing. For me, a Village Dodo drink, Filet Mignon medium rare 'surf and turf' style with a crab cake, and creamed spinach side served outside with the tiki torches blaring is near perfection in a meal.

The cook also has homemade sauce for spaghetti and garlic bread and also had a Cuban pork special that looked amazing. It's nothing fancy but it's really great food.

When finally seated the last slices of cake had gone. The owner assured me there was one more cake being delivered in about 15 minutes, so I sat with my family and we ordered a light lunch. I ordered the Smoked Gouda Cheese Wedges...where has this been all my life?!?! Creamy rich with orange blossom honey, and applewood smoked bacon just a killer combination! The caked showed, and it did not disappoint decadent and sweet, yet balanced by the tangerine citrus. The reason I came didn't disappoint and my family loved it as well. It was truly an awesome cake, so thank you so much! The service was great as well, very attentive on such a busy day, Chantel made it seem we were a priority. The feeling at the Green Door is inviting, while offering sense of exclusive indulgence without being over the top. Thank you everyone who made our first experience one to remember. We will be back!

As frequenters of their Dade City location Green Door on 8th, we were excited to see how this spot compared. I am happy to report that it maintains the same high standard while offering a unique charm of its own. The ambiance was cozy, providing an intimate and welcoming atmosphere that felt special for the holiday. Our server, Delaney, was outstanding. She was attentive, personable, and ensured that her timing was perfect throughout our dining experience. We started our evening with the smoked gouda, one of our favorite appetizers, and a round of their red sangria. The gouda was rich and flavorful, and the sangria was perfectly balanced--a great start to the meal. For our main courses, my wife ordered the shrimp and grits, which was prepared beautifully. My wife reported there was a definite spicy kick to the sauce. I opted for the evening's special, a bison ribeye served with "cowboy butter" and creamy mashed potatoes and smoked brussel sprouts as sides. The bison was cooked to perfection (medium rare), and the smokiness of the sprouts added a fantastic depth to the dish. We were too full to eat dessert at the table, so we took a slice of chocolate cake to-go. Whether you are a regular from Dade City or a Brooksville local, this location is a must-visit.
