The Rose Plantation - Fruitland Park

Last night, my husband and I went there for the first time for my birthday. Overall, The Rose Plantation was all I expected beautiful house with China porcelain and white tablecloths. We loved the elegant dress code and of course the classic songs of Joe, the piano player. The crab cakes and risotto with darkened sea mussels were also very delicious! My only disappointment was the caprese salad, which not as a traditional look with tomatoes and mozzarella slices alternating them themselves, but rather was a “caper” version with cherry tomatoes and just a few bocconcini of mozzarella.... a version that can be found more in a pizzeria vs an elegant place! Look forward to going back and bringing friends and, of course, tasting new dishes! Thanks again for my birthday dinner extra special Loredana

Lovely venue, good food, excellent service thank you Willie! My friend and I enjoyed some excellent chicken salad, a good turkey sandwich, and a very unusual and tasty grilled cheese with cheddar, gruyere, pecans and blueberry. Loved the potato salad, very homemade tasting, reminded me of my mother's and I consider hers the gold standard. Wish we would have had room for dessert, we'll save room next time!

They had me at dress code, but that also set my expectations high. They exceeded my expectations on every count. We ended up arriving early and meandered around the property. People leaving made a point to say how great their experience was. The staff were all friendly and warm, making you feel like you were a friend visiting for the evening. The food was excellent although it left no room for desert. And the dessert looked like the best part! If you want an evening that abounds with class and elegance, that demands the respect of dressing well to visit, this is the place.

Wonderful dining, exceptional food and great service

Love the ambiance. Had a very unique sandwich grilled cheese with blueberries and pecans yummie. Tried the drink special the peach spritzer not as enjoyable. Wait staff was pleasant but a little too chatty.
