I don't think I am the only Yachtsman fan out there - but I might just be the most vocal. I never miss an opportunity to weigh-in on the Yachtsman vs. Shula's questions. I would most definitely suggest that you have dinner at the Yachtsman!!
I'll just tell you that I have found the food & service to be head-and-shoulders above Shula's. It is not that I don't like Shula's- I have eaten at the original Shula's in Miami Lakes on a number of occasions as well as the location at the PGA resort in West Palm Beach. I simply find the Shula's at teh Swan to be lacking in atmosphere (it is way too dark for my liking), in service (they seem to be very interested in getting you out of there - unless you are with a large group - who might drop a big tip and in my experience there I would say the attitude bordered on rude), and in food quality (med rare doesn't mean crispy on the outside and bleeding on the inside).
Now, how about the Yachtsman? Never had a bad meal there (in almost 11 years, 3-4 visits per year), it is a must do on every trip! the food has always been very good to superb. The service has (in the past) been somewhat lacking at times - but never to the point of us deciding "we will never eat ther again". I would also say that in our last three or four visits the service has been outstanding, particularly our most recent visit in July. Our server was fantastic and the food was superb. I like to call the filet- "knife optional steak eating". We are looking forward to our visit in October - we will surely have a fantastic dinner there!
Hope this helps, I'm sure you will enjoy Yachtsman!!!!
