LAKE NONA, Florida – Lake Nona’s newest restaurant, Nona Blue, is set to launch its Modern Tavern concept on March 15, 2013.
The display kitchen is complemented with exposed brickwork and rich, dark mahogany, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The indoor dining area offers a number of options, including a 40-seat bar, two captain’s tables, wrap-around booth seating throughout and a seating area with drawn curtains for private events. An outdoor patio features a fireplace, intimate bar and al fresco dining.
Light fare on Nona Blue’s menu will include deviled eggs with apple wood smoked bacon, lightly fried oysters and blue cheese kettle chips. Among the “Handwiches” Nona Blue will offer is a decadent twist on the BLT. Order the BLT Grilled Cheese and dive into a pile of lobster salad, apple wood smoked bacon, diced tomato and havarti cheese, served on generous slices of Texas Toast.
Steaks and fresh fish off the hardwood grill are joined by a cider-brined, double cut pork rib chop served with mashed potato and braised apple chutney. The Nona Blue Bar Chefs will be mixing up the freshest seasonal cocktails, along with pouring off plenty of the 49 different wines and 16 craft beers on tap.
According to Bill Bona and Joe Davi, principal owners, the hospitality driven philosophy of Nona Blue is to create a welcoming atmosphere while delivering superior service and the highest level of food quality at our price point. “When executed properly, great restaurants become more than simply a location to have dinner and drinks,” Bona said. “They become ingrained in the fabric of the community as a place to gather, meet and make friends, and truly become a local amenity.”
PGA TOUR member and Lake Nona resident Graeme McDowell is also a principal owner of the restaurant. In fact, McDowell inadvertently gave the concept its name after a victory at the 2012 Tavistock Cup, staged at Lake Nona. Clad in Team Nona’s iconic blue and celebrating another victory in the annual team competition for touring professionals, McDowell shouted, “Nona Blue!” to a gathering of supporters, which included his business partner, Bona.
“It gives me great pleasure to know that Nona Blue is poised to become a part of our community,” McDowell said. “I have a home here at Lake Nona Golf & Country Club, and we are all looking forward to Nona Blue being not just a social hub for our neighbors and everyone in the surrounding communities, but to also contribute to the academic and athletic programs of our schools and the schools and research centers of Medical City.”
Nona Blue is located in Lake Nona Village on Narcoossee Road, between the entrances to Lake Nona Golf & Country Club and Northlake Park. For reservations, and to be a part of the Nona Blue experience, call 407.313.0027.
