Very inexpensive at Publix (chicken livers) or Walmart $2-$3 price range cook about 6 min I prefer them hot.

[Gpsma]

Im talking about beef liver

[Chi-Town]

Didn't see liverwurst last time I was there.

They should close the place down, because they're the worst managed restaurant in TV.

The last time I was there, they said they no longer serve spinach knishes. Only the potato. That's a shame as well. But I still love the place and we'll still be patroms.

[coralway]

getting rid of liver and spinach are steps in the right direction. Love that place.

[kkingston57]

Bet that 1% +/- orders liver and onions. Personally I hate it.

[Sabella]

I agree too jays at Lake Sumter Landing used to be one of my favorite restaurants. The restaurant has been sold. There are all new employees there and new major company owns them. The menu has changed and the place has gone downhill. I will not be eating there anymore either.

[Two Bills]

Calves liver, bacon, fried onions and cabbage with a thick onion gravy, would be my 'last meal' request!

Years ago there was a restaurant in Lady Lake called Dinner Bell. My grandparents too me there all the time so they could get liver an onions.

Whenever I see a restaurant billed as “NY style”, it usually means it's overpriced, overrated, over-hyped, and it under-delivers.

[Bay Kid]

They do have good chicken salad!

[ThirdOfFive]

What TV needs is a good ALBANIAN restaurant!

[justjim]

Too Jays quality has been tapering off for the last several years. We haven’t been there for more than a year. If it recently sold, the owners were smart to say goodbye.

I felt the same way about Ruby Tuesday's a few years ago when they stopped serving bison burgers.

I mentioned to the waitress that it was my favorite meal there and she said, "Yes, they were very popular".

Dropping popular items is usually a great way to run a restaurant. Into the buffers!

Liver n onions has been a Wednesday special at Orange Blossom Country Club - check out the ad in the Daily Sun on Wed.

We went to Too-Jays in Brownwood the other Sunday morning for breakfast. It was the worse breakfast we have ever had in The Villages and surrounding areas!

Sounds great, like the stuff I enjoyed as a young buck up on the "tundra" of northern Minnesota. Sans cabbage, though.

They still carry it. Just ask your server

Probably would have a very small clientele , I have never been to one though.

[Blackbird45]

I'm a New York and though I will go to Too Jays occasionally, it really never compares to the Jewish restaurants I grew up with and I'm not Jewish.

[bowlingal]

Holy Moly!!! call the food police !!!

[MidWestIA]

No business can avoid supply and demand not enough bought it

[MidWestIA]

That's probably what having non ordered menu items does

We have always had excellent experiences at the Toojays in Brownwood. The manager there is friendly and attentive, as is the wait staff. Great place to go after an early round of golf for a late breakfast.

EXACTLY! We went in once. Operative word: “once”…

[NoMo50]

My mother used to make the best liver and onions with bacon, and we would have it about once a week. Fast forward to adulthood...my wife hates the stuff. She won't eat it, won't cook it, and doesn't want me cooking it either. She hates the smell of it. I have yet to find a restaurant that makes it the way mom did. If I close my eyes and think real hard, I can still feature the smell of my mother cooking as I walk into the house after playing baseball with my friends. That could almost bring tears to my eyes!

I did….she said lots of people have complained that its been removed.

[RickyLee]

Pretty much the only reason I go there is for liver & onions

You should thank them for attempting to reduce your doctor visits. Plus your arteries will thank you.

That's pretty funny. I guess you love you some liver and onions.

[JOHNANDROBIN]

At TJ’s as we speak. Liver and Onions is back on their menu!! This comes directly from a server. So, eat up, you liver and onions people!!

Toojays emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy with new owners in September 2020.
Since it failed to make money in it's previous "life" things had to change - it's a business practice to continuously look at items that don't sell well or a have a low profit margin to change as customer's tastes change or costs increase.

As for not being well run it's almost always a personnel thing. What food service business today doesn't have a problem in this areas?

If you don't like the restaurant you have so many other choices.

[jparsoneau@aol.com]

I have never liked liver and onions.
Nor do I care for spinach.
So far so good

[ahrens fox]

Last night my dinner salad was 3 onion rings, 2 cucumber slices, and lettuce. Apparently they didn't want to make much of an effort.

[Two Bills]

Liver is one of the most nutritional foods you can eat, as are most offal's

Nothing wrong with onions either.
Bacon? In moderation, never killed anyone

Thank you for your kind advice. May i ask where you did your medical residency?

Bonifay and Caine Garden. I order there but still not as good as what my wife makes. Your recipe sounds good

[Normal]

Is it still legal to serve that monstrosity of a meal? I always thought it bordered child abused when I had to eat it as a kid. The organ in question filters the blood removing the poisons and impurities in your body…hmmm. Not my first choice for fine dining.

Do they serve that with an extra helping of bile?

[Marathon Man]

WebMD and MayoClinic are my trusted sourced for medical information. Here is what I found:

Beef liver is one the most nutrient rich foods on the planet, However, it is also very high in cholesterol and has a higher-than-normal risk of interaction with medications.

I agree with some of the others. Yuck. I hated when my mom made it. Peanut butter and jelly for me.

[Artesians]

Orange Blossom restaurant has great liver and onions, mashed potatoes and gravy, and green beans on Wednesdays.

You obviously never ate at a NY Deli or Italian Restaurant. The local restaurant in question has the worst Pastrami I ever had. The fat is so chewy you almost choke on it.

Impossible to get a corned beef or pastrami on rye that is anything like NY (IE Katz)

No argument there…but have you seen the price of a sandwich at Katz…$25!

[patfla06]

My Mom used to cook liver & onions for my Dad.
Thankfully she never made us eat it.
I do really like chopped liver! :icon_wink:

Some people hate it, others love it. If cooked right it is great.

Actually, corned beef is $26.45, and pastrami is $27.45.

When you know what good pastrami and corned beef tastes like hard to settle for fourth rated deli meat.

[Garywt]

Sounds like a blessing to me.

I do like Bison Burgers but waitress comment was probably anecdotal and/or they cut into sales of regular hamburgers which are very close in taste.

Agree…but im sure you might remember years ago there was always a great jewish deli close by everywhere in nyc. Nothing will compare to those places…sadly, they are all gone.

[Freehiker]

TooJays in Brownwood has gotten really dirty over the last few months. I know they have had some serious staffing issues, but if they can’t even clean the dining room floor I don’t want to think how bad it is in the kitchen areas.

Did you check the specials menu? We were at the Brownwood restaurant on Thursday and Liver & onions is a Thursday dinner special.

I do remember they were in every neighborhood in NY but sadly those days are long gone.

There will be plenty of chatter on here...LOL...those who hate it, those who love it, under the new owners/management. It will settle nothing except as a "let off steam" value for some people. But the one fact is, IF enough people love it, it will stay open, and if enough people join the "hate posters", then it will eventually close ! Basic economics even kids with a lemonade stand can understand..LOL !
