First time visiting Talkin' Tacos. We have plenty of options when it comes to Tacos/Burritos/Mexican cuisine. So, if you're going to stand out, the food better be good. And, oh wow, Talkin' Tacos is no joke. Upon walking in you are greeted with an el...
Talkin' Tacos - SoDo
Nice atmosphere. Tapas/Small Plates style restaurant. Service was great. Everything we tried was really good. Save room for dessert.
Chroma Modern Bar + Kitchen
By far, best restaurant in the area. Wine club membership is a great deal. Food is always fresh and delicious. Can't go wrong with Chicken Madeira, Trio of Medallions or Pistachio Crusted Grouper. My go to dishes.
Cooper's Hawk Winery & Restaurant - Waterford Lakes
Absolutely perfect. Visited for the first time celebrating our friend's anniversary. It was a great choice for a special evening. Bacan is simply next level. Everything we had was amazing!! They put such care in everything from the drinks to the food...
BACÁN at The Wave Hotel - Lake Nona
Great vibe. There was a nice crowd tonight. Really enjoyed our dinner experience. Met the Owner who was genuinely looking for feedback. I can say, they get it right. Food was fresh, flavorful and delicious. I've never had peanut soup or even heard of...
The Pinery
What a nice find in Celebration. Our server was very attentive and nice. Seemed happy to be at work which is always refreshing. Food was very fresh and arrived quickly even though they seemed fairly busy. The menu is New England inspired so you'll fi...
Celebration Town Tavern
Our new go to for Italian. Always fresh. Fair prices. Pizza is thin and delicious. Just the right amount of sauce and cheese. Also had the penne a la vodka which was fantastic. Clean and fun atmosphere. Give them a try.
Muzzarella Pizza & Italian Kitchen
Fantastic atmosphere. Actually really surprised how beautiful it is inside the hotel lobby and bar. Restaurant is open design and high class feel. Cheese board is plentiful. Couldn't finish it because it was so much. With that said, it was delicious....
Hamilton's Kitchen - Winter Park
I'll start off by saying the food was very good. We came on a Sunday night. Just a few people in the restaurant. Server was friendly and attentive but service was slow. Not complaining but felt $180 was a tad much for 2 meals, one appetizer, a couple...
Kres Chophouse
One of my favorites in the area. Love the chicken tenders, meatloaf, mac and cheese. Staff is always friendly and service is fast. Stopped by for brunch today. Wow. Everything was so good. Quiche is incredible. Chicken and waffles feature the same ch...
Nona Blue Modern Tavern
THE best ramen spot in Orlando!!! Great staff, and good selection of seasonal cocktails. Even on busy days, we just go up to Neighbors on the second floor and have a couple of drinks while we wait for our table. Don't pass on the wings either. So goo...
Domu
Awesome tapas restaurant serving global small plates (tapas) with house-specialty sangria and cocktails.
Santiago's Bodega
Serving steaks, seafood & cocktails in an upscale lodge like setting.
Firebirds Wood Fired Grill
Love this place. It's a bit small. Came in for brunch. Portions are large. Had the biscuits and gravy as well as the fried green tomatoes. Really good. Highly recommend for good food and chill atmosphere.
Maxine's On Shine
From the moment we stepped into this restaurant, we knew we were in for something special. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, with just the right balance of elegance and comfort. The food? Absolutely phenomenal—every dish was bursting with flavor,...
