Terrace Grille Lakeland

Stopped by today for drinks and dessert during their brunch. My wife got the Smores dessert and I got the Meyers Lemon Hive with ginger and honeycomb. But we're excellent.

For the last several years I have wanted to come to the Terrace Grille. I love historic places abd wanted to experience the high end dining offered there. The experience itself was disappointing. While the architecture is beautiful the dining was not what I expected. The service was unbearably slow for a restaurant of this calaiber. When you are paying $50 a plate or more I expect the staff to very attentive and food to leaveme craving to come back. The Southern Affair Snapper was presented beautifully, but the flavor was nothing to wow me. The Garlic appetizer was magnificent! When you get a bit with all the elements it just sings on your tounge! The down side is you only get 1 scallop so it really isn't an appetizer you can share and I had a party of 2. In the end I am glad I went and had the experience, but I won't be going back. It wasn't worth the cost.

Great dinner and service. I had the elk chops and my husband had the short ribs. Both were delicious. The salads were great as well. They do a nice twist on a Ceasar salad that should not be missed. Of course, I had to have the chocolate swan for dessert. So cute.

Having enjoyed many special events such our move to Lakeland in 2007 when my husband and I retired from our careers and joined our two adult sons and their families as new residents. From evening dining with friends and Christmas Eves beginning at the Terrace to stays of our friends and family who travel here to enjoy the beauty and culture of Lakeland we consider the Terrace as a must see. Today, we had decided to meet at the Terrace Grille with our two sons, their wives and four grandchildren to celebrate a Thanksgiving Breakfast. While I was preparing an already beautiful table for ten guests, Alexis, the Maitre’d and waitress assisted me with the favors I had brought. As we waited for our guests to arrive, we enjoyed having a coffee service provided by Alexis in the lovely Lake Mirror Room; we could not take our eyes off of the beautiful restorations of the new Terrace Tapestry. It is truly a major site!! Alexis was as poised and confident in working with a group of guests, and the hospitality could not be matched. As the breakfast plates came to our table, there was such a variety of orders, and they were all delicious. Attention was given to every detail. The dinnerware and table decor were so in keeping with the decor throughout the hotel. And in contrast to the former dinnerware which did not keep a cup of coffee hot, the coffee was hot and maintained the temperature throughout the meal. An invitation to meet the Chef was the perfect ending to our 2-hour breakfast, and with his invitation to tour the entire hotel, we could not have expected anything more—until Alexis appeared with a precious Terrace Hotel stuffed animal swan. A memorable Thanksgiving!
