From the moment we walked in the service was outstanding, we sat at the kitchen counter. This is the best seat in the house, I promise you. You are able to observe every dish they are making the chefs gave us every attention to detail. They made us feel very welcomed and comfortable. We tried 8 different dishes served directly from the chef. It was an exceptional experience. The only dish we didn’t try was the main seller which was the roasted chicken we said that we will come back to try this dish and enjoy the experience again. Thank you to all the chefs who made us feel welcomed and we will definitely will return! Definitely worth every dollar spent!

this is one of the best restaurants in the villages. it’s in a new area that is a family community right next to the high school called Middelton. The number 24 comes from this beam building 24 on the original construction plans and the owner’s mother living in England and the house number being 24 as well. The quality of the food is exceptional, always fresh. The dishes are creative, yet traditional. Excellent menu, good pricing, fantastic service, and an open kitchen make for a fun experience. If you get the opportunity to sit at the bar at the kitchen, you will be entertained by how hard the team works together. definitely give this place a try you will not regret it. try the carrots and whipped ricotta as a side, the beet salad, the burger, the pork chop, and the market fish.

Best meal out, to date, in The Village Town Centers in the five months we have been here (including Eastport).

My husband and I had early dinner reservations at 4:30 on Monday, Dec. 8th, 2025. When we stepped inside we knew that this was different. It was tastefully decorated for the holiday and had a very inviting ambiance.

We were welcomed by two young ladies who promptly seated us. Our server was Jenny and she was delightful and helped me to choose the perfect GF meal options and she took time to answer our questions about 24 Middleton.

We started with a Chocolate Peppermint Martini (the best), a Greek Salad we shared, then had Filet and Sea Bass for the main courses with the Carrots and Risotto as sides. Everything came timely (with thoughtful presentation of the main course). The Filet was prepared to the perfect temperature and tasted wonderful. The Market Sea Bass was a nice size and delicious. The carrots were a little luke warm and not as hot as would have liked but delicious none the less. The mushroom risotto did not disappoint either.

Dessert was okay. My wish was that, as someone GF, I had hoped to be wowed by originality. Perhaps a rich chocolatey GF dessert. Unfortunately, it was just another plain vanilla Creme Brulee that I can get at all of the other restaurants here (no whip cream but a strawberry on top). To be fair, I could have had GF berries and whipped ricotta, but I wanted something different that stood out like the rest of the food. No offense but I can get berries at home and I don’t consider berries to be decadent or something I will pay for out unless it is 90 degrees and I am looking for something lighter to eat.

Our overall experience was that we love, love, love, that 24 Middleton is a locally owned restaurant and not part of a larger chain. The interactions with the staff and the warm inviting atmosphere were a pleasure.

We will be returning to this restaurant as it is now our #1 choice to date in TV town centers after trying other chain restaurant brands (including in Eastport) and not being overly impressed with those others.

24 Middleton, you and your staff wowed us.
Thanks for the wonderful dining experience.

My wife and I tried 24 Middleton last night. It was great. We sat at the counter and watched the chefs do their thing. It was very cool. Food was great and we will be going back soon.

Last night, my spouse and I, along with two friends, had dinner at a new restaurant in Middleton called 24 Middleton. As we arrived, I noticed an inviting outdoor bar and several tables where guests were already enjoying their meals. We like to arrive about 30 minutes early when dining out, so we checked in with the hostess, confirmed our reservation, and decided to start with cocktails at the bar. The restaurant also has a spacious indoor bar, and while the dining room itself is one large open space—which makes it a bit lively—the noise level never interfered with conversation.

To our surprise, the bartenders were familiar faces: Jen and Brandon, two of the best mixologists we knew from a private club we once belonged to. They recognized us immediately, and I told our friends we were in excellent hands. I ordered an espresso martini, one friend did the same, another chose a cosmopolitan, and my spouse ordered his signature vodka martini. Jen remembered his preference—shaken, with a hand-stuffed blue cheese olive—and delivered it perfectly. Everyone agreed their drinks were spot on.

Soon after, a gentleman with a British accent introduced himself as JT. When I asked if he was the manager, he confidently replied, “I’m the owner.” I was impressed to see the owner so present and engaged. We chatted, and I learned that JT had once owned the private club where we met Jen and Brandon. It made sense that they—and later, other familiar faces—had chosen to work with him again.

When it was time to sit for dinner, we met our server, Ken, who kept us entertained all evening with his humor and knowledge of the menu. My spouse, a friend, and I started with the French Onion Soup, which was outstanding—the best we’ve ever had. For mains, I ordered the Seafood Pasta, and though I usually avoid white sauces, the chef completely won me over. My spouse’s grilled branzino was flawless, and another friend’s Steak Frites was cooked exactly to her liking. Even the sides impressed us: my fries were crisp and classic, while the Brussels sprouts my spouse ordered were delicious.

Throughout the evening, more familiar faces appeared—Kristina, another server we remembered from the club, and Peter, a former manager. It became clear that JT inspires loyalty, as so many of his former staff have chosen to join him at this new venture.

24 Middleton is truly a hidden gem. Between the exceptional cocktails, memorable dishes, and warm, talented staff, it’s a place I would highly recommend. JT and his team know how to create an experience that leaves you wanting to return.

Monday dinner here, fantastic staff, fantastic food! So far the best restaurant I’ve been to in my 2 month visit in The Villages. Highly recommend the branzino and lamb! I love that their menu has mocktails!
My only nitpick: While they serve bread as an appetizer, I was kinda surprised that table bread isn’t a thing here.

Me and my family had a wonderful time at 24 Middleton! The hostesses took great care in making sure everything was okay, including management. I ordered the 24 burger and it was phenomenal! We also enjoyed the oysters. I have recommended this place to everyone I know and can’t wait to come back soon. Our server did an amazing job at describing items on the menu to us, and the bar staff was awesome!

Amazing food, great service, cool environment, and even on the third night of being open. I can only imagine it will get even better. Plenty of gluten free options and no issue with ordering what I needed. It is so nice to dine at a place that accommodates for food intolerances easily! We will be back. Awesome date night!

24 Middleton is a must-visit!
This local gem serves up upscale Mediterranean-inspired dishes that are consistently delicious and beautifully presented. Every meal feels like a special occasion — from perfectly grilled meats to vibrant, flavor-packed sides. And the bar? We haven’t ordered a single drink that wasn’t surprisingly delightful. 24 Middleton delivers on taste, atmosphere, and service. Highly recommend! We will be back again this weekend!
