Highland House

Coming Soon! With renovations coming to completion very soon, I had the privilege of attending a tasting event at the *new Highland House restaurant at the Dunedin Golf Club. What a treat! Restaurant decor is modern and fresh with an homage to the Scottish history of Dunedin and a revival of a Donald Ross golf course. Sneak peak including a sampling of many of the unique Craft Cocktails and bites of different food delights from the menu. Everything was delicious, staff was excited to be part of the new beginnings and we can't wait until the project is complete and the Highland House is open!! We can imagine ourselves enjoying cocktails at the bar waiting for our table before dinner. Well done!

BUYER BEWARE!Some good news, some bad news. Good news--Bartender is friendly and a hardworker, food was good, nice atmosphere.Bad news- Bar is extremely unorganized so watched the bartender hop from one well to the other just to make one drink...extremely inefficient. Having 2 large parties and a wedding made for slow service. Why not just ice BOTH wells and prepare drinks at the well you're pouring from. Also have garnishes precut. Bartender was definitely working harder not smarter, but was very sweet. Bless her heart! Food was good! Im sure they were crazy busy in the kitchen with a huge wedding and the 2 large parties in the bar. We got our food a decent time frame but definitely got there bottom of the fries basket of tidbits or crisped potatoes instead of actual fries. Had to ask for replacement--shouldnt have ever left the kitchen in that condition...tried to "slide by" with low quality. Lastly--C'MON FEINSTEIN GROUP!!!! Why arent you telling us you are adding an auto 20% "service charge" onto our bill?? Bartender gives us the bill, NEVER mentioned the auto-tip so hubby adds another 25%. He mentioned how shocked he was that out bill was $100 when we SHARED a burger and French onion soup...and I guess fried dont come with burgers because we were charged $4 for fries. I was like--HOLD ON!! We shared one dinner and a soup and a few drinks each and it's $100????? something is wrong. He looked the bill over and saw we had already been charge an AUTO-TIP. I mean thats fine, we got friendly service and would've tipped that anyway, but to NOT BE TOLD, and then add another 25%.....sorry---45% tip???? not sitting at a bar SHARING a BURGER at a club house!! We felt bamboozled. really dumb scheme. I looked around at all the golfers and old people not paying attention to their bill,. pretty sure they scheme several people out of a 40-45% tip all day long!

Super Bowl menu looks great! So jealous I can't go! Amazing drink specials as well.

Beautifully redone space. Happy hour is good value. Still working out menu details but worth a visit

We were two ladies that sat at the bar on Sunday around 12:30 today. One of us is a member at Dunedin Golf Club. It was my first time. Very few people were in with the exception of a table of 3 managers/staff who were having a meeting at a table in the restaurant. We could hear a lot of their conversation without trying. Maybe they should use another room away from customers for the meetings. They were obviously not paying attention to what goes on in the restaurant, or don't care, based on our bad experience. 4 men come in and sat across from us at the bar. They were very loud, obnoxious, and saying "fu....." in almost every sentence. I said something to the bartender and he said "you are in a clubhouse and it will get worse." Management never said anything to them in over 20 minutes. In addition to us being there, a father and his young daughter were sitting behind them. One of the management guys went over to one of the men cussing every other sentence and gave him a high five! Finally the bartender went over and said to the men " this is a clubhouse, not a locker room." They said "we will go outside and bother others." The non action that we observed from management told us this is acceptable behavior at Highland House. I have been to many golf club restaurants and men take off their hats and respect those around them.

My husband and I came for just some small bites and one drink during happy hour, but with the service and quality, it turned into some entrees and a couple of drinks . Our server, Kelly, gave us excellent recommendations and was very attentive. The view of the oak trees and golf course were the perfect complement to the new renovations. It felt: upscale, Florida-retired-laid-back, fine dining. I will absolutely come back to try more of the menu.

This definitely going to be our new local favorite spot! Everything has been renovated, inside (and soon to be out) and even the bathrooms! Kelly the bartender and the GM Robert were so nice and welcoming! Scratch kitchen so our food was on point and probably unlocked a new craving for the French Dip sandwich. My drink was delicious and made me feel like I'm on vacation. The new menu is such a good mix - I can't wait to try it all!

The service and the food were horrible. The pasta at today's luncheon had sauce on it that tasted like right from the jar crushed tomatoes. The salad with that chicken, was barely edible. The chicken was way overcooked and you couldn't cut it at all. The brownie was overcooked also.

Four of us went to lunch on a rainy Tuesday. Hardly anyone was in the restaurant at noon. Our BLT had one slice on bacon on a half, the french fries were old, cold and hard, and the cobb salad crusted chicken was cold. There was no dressing. We'd go back maybe for happy hour and an appetizer but skip it for real food.

Food and prices need a revamp. The grouper sandwich had the smallest piece of grouper I have ever had; fries were served too overcooked to eat; French onion soup was like no other French onion soup we have ever had and was inedible. Atmosphere was great and the server was very accommodating and I don't mind the 20% service charge added to a bill if the food is good.
