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!

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

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.
