LAKEWOOD RANCH – Polo Grill and Bar is one of Lakewood Ranch’s favorite places to dine
since opening in 2007.  Locally owned and

operated by Chef Tommy Klauber and Jaymie Klauber, the restaurant, lounge and
ballroom (operating as Fete Catering & Ballroom) is the destination for
weddings, celebrations, power lunches, intimate dinners, corporate functions,
live music and entertainment.


Now, after a massive
renovation and introduction of a new Executive Chef and Director of Catering
Sales, the neighborhood establishment is poised to offer even more to its
guests and catering clients.  The new Polo

Grill will feature a modern and comfortable aesthetic, exciting global cuisine,

a 6,000 bottle wine cellar and craft cocktails, as well as  an additional private dining room, called the
Tack Room, able to accommodate as many as 75 guests for meetings or festive
occasions.

The restaurant also has new
leadership, appointing Stephane Pierre as Executive Chef over food and beverage
services.  Chef Pierre has over 25 years
of culinary experience, starting as a fish cleaner in a restaurant in Brussels to working his
way up to Executive Chef for the Royal Family of Belgium and attaining the rank
of Certified Master Chef.


Keri Tryba has been named
Director of Catering Sales, serving as primary contact for weddings, corporate meetings
and special event dining.  Ms. Tryba
worked previously for Tyndale House Publishers, serving as an event coordinator
