THE GOOD: Two popular diets today are the Keto diet and the Weight Watchers Personal Points diet. Can you enjoy a fabulous meal out on each? We certainly did.
In all fairness we really wanted to have a great lunch today so we intentionally looked for a restaurant in Englewood Florida with amazing reviews. Searching Google maps we found Farlow’s with a 4.6 rating. One of the reviews listed a server by the name of Rita that was raved upon in a review. Imagine our good fortune when our server came to our table and introduced herself as “Rita.” It all continued uphill from there.
The outdoor seating of Farlow’s was very upscale with beautiful landscaping which included stone pavers, stone benches, spacious dining area with ample umbrellas for shade. The water front dining was just incredible.
Not only are they dog friendly but the staff legitimately swooned over our three rescued, disabled Golden Retrievers. We were afforded a nice shady table with fresh water for our dogs.
I ordered the St. John’s Steak Salad. A fresh bed of mixed greens topped with beef tips, pecans, red onions with ranch dressing I requested the beef medium rare and that is exactly how it was served. Delicious.
My wife ordered the Roasted Beets and Goat Cheese salad served over a bed of fresh arugula. She added grilled chicken which made for a healthy lunch on her Weight Watchers Personal Points meal plan. What was really scrumptious was a house dressing consisting of cranberry dijonaisse. This was “to die for.”
All in all we had a tremendous lunch at a very affordable price.
