Apopkans are not shy about taking to social media to talk about the limited choices of full-service dining in Apopka.
The owners of the Emerald Palm Restaurant hope to provide Apopkans with another option when it comes to affordable full-service restaurants, and the Grand Opening this week on Wednesday and Thursday will give diners a chance to sample their fare at bargain prices.
The Emerald Palm is located inside the Apopka Golf & Tennis Clubhouse," said General Manager Paul Fisher. "But it is open to everyone. Our goal is to provide a full-service restaurant experience at reasonable prices."
Sam Brightman, who has been the chef at Apopka Golf & Tennis for nearly a year will be in charge of the menu which will have several new items for the Grand Opening.
The Emerald Palm's menu will have a variety of choices, according to a draft that was provided to The Apopka Voice. Dining choices will include seafood, steaks, pasta, sandwiches and salads. There is also a children's menu (and kids under 12 eat free).
The regular pricing for the entrees is as follows:
- Seafood - $15 to $19
- Steaks - $17 to $22
- Pasta - $15 to $18
"The Grand Opening menu is still being finalized and will be available online soon," said Fisher.
For the Grand Opening on Novemebr 16th and 17th the Emerald Palm is offering the following specials:
- 25% off their regular menu pricing
