Lakewood Ranch Main Street is an active place to visit on the weekends especially during their signature events like “Music on Main”. My husband and I really enjoy McAllister’s and Ed’s Tavern, two restaurants on Lakewood Ranch Main Street that offer delicious food at very reasonable prices. We are very excited for Eduardo’s Cantina (Mexican Restaurant) and Trattoria (Pizza/Italian) to open up in the next few months. The area is already quite busy with the shops, restaurants, and a movie theater and if these restaurants have a good menu then the homeowners of Lakewood Ranch are in for a real treat. Often after a long day of work you don’t want to cook, but you don’t really want to travel too far for a bite to eat so you can understand our excitement for these new restaurants to be opening up close to our home. In Lakewood Ranch we do have a few pizza options, there is Michelangelo’s and Monty’s and just off University there is Casa di Pizza which is very good, but pizza is just one of those foods where you like many options so we our excited to try Main Street Trattoria. In real estate we know it is all about location and again with the Lakewood Ranch Main Street events and the people flowing out of the movie theater it is not a stretch to think that these restaurants won’t be plenty busy.
Also on Lakewood Ranch Main Street as of June 24th The Fish Hole opened up. The Fish Hole offers 18 holes of miniature golf which is at the very end of Main Street along the bank of Lake Uihlein . Let me tell you for putt-putt golf it looks very high end and with the landscaping and construction materials used it looks like it belongs in Lakewood Ranch. To please the critics the planned 30 foot water tower was scrapped, the roofing material used on the shaded structure is the same as the other restaurants and shops, and the fencing is identical to the fencing used at Ed’s Tavern. From my point of view I think they did a great job with the landscaping adding tall palm trees to cut down on the sound and lighting that a putt-putt course typically gives off.
We will post reviews and pictures to follow in the next few weeks after I get to try these new restaurants and play a little miniature golf at Lakewood Ranch Main Street .
