New American Restaurants in Orlando, FL

“The crabcakes and fried green tomatoes were very tasty. I also had the lobster eggs Benedict which was delicious. The atmosphere was fun and the owner's husband Mr. Maxine said a funny but sweet poem for my birthday with a delicious champagne toast. I will definitely be back.“

“Comfort food at its finest, the food is really good & made with care as well as quality ingredients; however, service with to go orders can be hit or miss. I’ve called before with no answer, which is cool bc I just stop by (I live across the street) these days many places don’t utilize the phone anymore, it’s an expense + people are busy, but I’ve walked in after the phone not being answered a couple times to place a to go order & see a few staff members & a mostly empty dining room…still no greeting or help with ordering until someone comes out of the back. In general, I’ve found the best experience to be dine in.“

“Excellent food—creative menu. Outstanding wait staff. Fun to watch the team in the kitchen from our bar perch. No question we’d return next trip to Orlando. If you live here you are lucky! Support your local gourmet!“

“Excellent service. Delicious food“

“Great food and atmosphere. Convenient location.“

“Had a fabulous evening. Service was excellent. But it was a late booking as there were no earlier tables available - which was disappointing. All the staff were friendly & professional. Would recommend family and friends.“

“Why this restaurant doesnt have a 5 star rating is beyond me! I have been eating here since it opened and the food and staff have always been phenomenal!We ate dinner from The Kitchen two nights during our recent stay, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals! The first night we split the short rib pasta...thank goodness...it was amazing and the portion size filled us both up! The meat was so tender and cooked to perfection! On our last night we stopped in after a full day at the parks with our 4 year old grandson. It was perfect once again! Chicken tender and fries for him, smothered pork chop with glazed carrots and mashed potatoes with a delicious mushroom gravy for me, and the skirt steak with duck fat fingerling potatoes for my husband! Everything was delicious, we had enough leftovers for lunch the next day, and our server, Jake was fantastic! He even brought out a complimentary donut sundae for the birthday boy! Can't wait to stop in for dinner again in April!Kid-friendliness: The servers were great with our grandson! A nice menu for k8ds, and the kids can make their owndinner on certain nights....a pizza or quesadilla!“

“This restaurant has delish food. The Green Curry Chicken was sublime... Thanks to Chef Jeremy... Wait staff are courteous, friendly, and very patient when I was struggling with so many great choices... Thanks Melita... And finally to the glue that keeps the whole place running smoothly... Thanks to Anna, Hostess extraordinaire... This place is where you want to go for excellent Pan-American food.“

“Great service and their menu this time of the year is absolutely wonderful. We had really good wine flights, flatbread + appetizers (great salads, crab cake, asparagus soup) then the main meal (wonderful sea bass, loin of lamb and gnocchi). Our server was patient, helpful, had good conversations (brief, not overwhelming), funny and on top of it all with our orders! Great guy!“

“Good service and Nice atmosphere.“

“Everything I have tried has been fantastic. For a small business I can’t believe the quality and value of the many delicious items I have had. Please go check this place out and support a fantastic local business.“

“Great place. Good burgers“

“Great feel, even better food and staff that has you planning your next visit before you leave. Thank you Chef Nikk and Fred!!“

“Had brunch here this morning with friends visiting from out of town. Amber waited on us. She is awesome!!!!“

“Delicious Cauliflower mash!!!“

“The Highball & Harvest is a great place for lunch or dinner. The interior is beautiful and well designed. The menu is well composed and everything tastes amazing. I have been here 3 times in three days (work conference) and every time it was great.“

“I don't normally write reviews but I had such a wonderful experience at The Waterford Lakes Fresh Kitchen location earlier this week & wanted to give credit where credit is due. Not only was the food AMAZING, but so was the customer service! Madilyn was very helpful and a smile never left her face :) She has a knack for hospitality & service. 10/10 experience, and 10/10 broccoli ! Lol!“

“Wonderful first experience. Glad I tried it. Food was definitely the best at a park I’ve had. The steak was tender and huge and comparable to outside fine dining. Cauliflower bites were awesome.“

“Just wanted to thank Sierra for her service when I come w my friends. She always makes everything easy, suggest different things, and never makes us feel like a burden with complicated orders. This place is very convenient in location and to watch the game and fights. Thank you again, Sierra!“

“I've been to the Yard House in Houston a few times. The service and food quality were never good. At best it was okay. This Yard House was a lot better. The food was served fresh both days we went there. The servers would always check in on us, but never be intrusive.Good job guys. I'll be back! :-)“

“Great tasting healthy food options. They should also consider offering no sugar added versions of Bolay drinks like the Pineapple and Ginger“

“Went to Eola Wine Company a while back with some coworkers. It was a great time. Trying to find parking was a bit tough since I went during a busy time, and I ended up having to pay for parking. But the food and drinks were worth it. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seats to choose from.“

“Such a cool and chill vibe! Food and drinks were delicious! Our bartender/mixologist was knowledgeable and genuinely nice, making sure everything about our experience went smoothly. Definitely recommend!Dietary restrictions: Shellfish allergy so they took necessary precautions“

“Delicious food! Great staff!“

“Decided to golf at Rio Pinar today and found this restaurant practically on the golf course, i got the ribeye sandwich and the steak was cooked a perfect medium rare and the bread had a nice garlic touch that wasnt overpowering and the fries tasted very crispy and the waiters as well helped provide me with some of the best service and food ive had in a long time!“

“We had a great night outside on the patio tonight. I think we were served by the manager? He came over and asked if we had been served. We had not, so he got our drinks for us. We ordered the shrimp and hummus appetizers. It was tasty and very filling. I also ordered the southwest chicken salad to go. It was brought out promptly and looks delicious. We will definitely visit again.“

“Amazing food! The flavor is like non other!“

“We had lunch there today and everyone's meal was excellent. The salads were huge. I had the salmon salad and the piece of fish was really big and perfectly cooked. We also had aperol spritz and they were great. I would highly recommend this place.“

“Love Freddy’s every chance I get to eat here. One of the best Burger Chains out there“

“The crab beignets are an absolute must!!!“

“Staff and food was phenomenal I will definitely go back again .“

“Service was fast through drive-thru. Food fresh, hot and delicious as always.“

“My son and I both had steak, he enjoyed his strip steak with the garlic butter topping and I liked the filet medallions...the twice baked potatoes as the side were yummy also. Service was good also but it was really chilly inside, also pretty dimly lit by most of the tables (besides the bar which was near the windows). Overall it was a good dinner for the value though.“

“Visited with some friends. Facilities were good. Clean and staff was friendly. We didn't have to wait long. The system were easy to operated. Ethan, our server was courteous and attentive. He came back numerous times to make sure we didn't need anytime. Every one enjoyed what they ordered. I had a Burger and it was good. Price was reasonable. But we came for golf and drinks. The clubs are easy to hit. I'm not an avid golfer so this makes it fun and takes the pressure from going to a course. Will come back again.“

“The food here was phenomenal!Wife and I had dinner and a few drinks. We started with the ceviche and the blue crab beignets. The beignets were surprisingly wonderful! The ceviche was fantastic as well.We split a fillet which they cut in half for us and cooked it perfectly. The fillet honestly was one of the best steaks I’ve ever had. As a side, we had the lobster mac & cheese, which was very delicious with large chunks of lobster.We finished off dinner with a salted caramel brownie, which was to die for.Highly recommend this place for a great night out!“

“Highly recommend for breakfast. Staff was friendly, food was delivered fast, and it was DELICIOUS!“

“Chathams is a wonderful restaurants! The food is delicious and the service was great! I had the rack of lamb. It was the best I’ve fever had. Definitely my fav restaurant!“

“Our server was not knowledgeable of what we were ordering. We had questions about the drinks in the menu and it was like pulling teeth to get an explanation.. we also needed refills on drinks while eating and received our drinks after the bill came Food was great wasnt busy“

“Dole Whip... at a resort... with the option to add booze. I mean... how is this NOT a five-star review automatically?! Okay, in all seriousness, this really is a great little spot. If you're at the Polynesian resort, main house, go towards the back in the main lobby and out the sliding glass doors. Turn left, and there it is, a little gem situated in a resort instead of in a crowded park. Dole Whips have their own cult following, and I have to admit I get the fever. They're so tasty! This location can also do swirls with vanilla soft-serve, and they also make Dole Whip Floats (your choice of DW or soft-serve with pineapple juice). So good! They also offer a Dole Whip Float with a shot of coconut rum! Yes, it's delicious, though honestly the rum hides very quickly with the size and flavor of the float. But, that's okay, you can just take the shot separately if you want, they serve it on the side. That's all they serve: ice cream, Dole Whip, floats, and mixtures between the above. It's that simple. And simply delicious. Whether we're staying at this resort or just stopping by for a meal, we have to go to the Lanai for a Dole Whip!“

“Me and my family went there By luck. You're driving around looking for something to eat. Happen to see this place in a little plaza there. And boy, were we lucky? That food was delicious. Their service was excellent. Nicest kind people I've ever met. Thank you, Bob's !!! will be there again.Parking: Plenty of parking, long as you get there at a decent time.Kid-friendliness: Very kids friendly the waitress. There was very, very nice. She've told the chef to make my daughter. Some Mickey Mouse pancakes.“

“Love this place. Best burgers, fries and shakes in the area!“

“Absolutely Delicious!! I got my turkey smoked this year for Thanksgiving and it was seasoned and smoked to perfection. I highly recommend Boomerang BBQ & Bistro!!“

“Fantastic service, prices and food! Well worth the visit.“

“The food was amazing, both in flavor and preparation. The salmon was cooked perfectly and the Cajun chicken pasta was delicious. Austin took care of us and his service was impeccable. The music and the atmosphere were just right, enhancing the experience without being intrusive. The manager, JP, stopped by and was gracious and welcoming. I was not expecting such an exceptional experience when we walked in, I was expecting basic, casual-theme dining. I hope they open one in the Philly area, I would be a hard-core regular. In the mean time, if you are in the Orlando area, stop in and ask for Austin. You will not be disappointed“

“The food was great, everything was cooked fresh after we placed our order. Everything you want in terms of a “backyard” style of burger/hotdog.The service was the best I’ve ever experienced, even compared to fine dining. The owner brought the food to our table, constantly checked in to see how everything was, etc. I spotted him picking up random trash and leaves that were on the ground in front of the bass pro exit. He even brought a drink to a random bass pro employee sitting at the picnic benches who didn’t even order anything. I will get something every time I’m here to support his business.“

“I don't think this restaurant gets the credit it deserves. We were staying at the Contemporary. So, it was a no-brainer to eat here on our rest day. Even though the ambience is upscale, it is still welcoming and accommodating to guest of all ages. I started my dinner with the French onion soup. It was probably one of the best I've ever had. Hubby and I both enjoyed the 6 ounce fillet. We both ordered our fillets medium rare. Mine was cooked perfectly. His was a little overcooked. For sides, we enjoyed the red wine glazed mushrooms, creamed spinach, au gratin potatoes. I would give all 3 sides 5 stars. Our six-year-old devoured "3" bowls of mac & cheese - declaring it the best mac & cheese she has ever had! Lol. Shout out to our server Nancy from Boston, MA. She took perfect care of us! Don't sleep on this restaurant, check out Steakhouse 71!“

“Lost a bet with my boyfriend and his reward was I take him on a wing date. We already had plan around the area so I found Greg’s Place Wings on the way there to fulfill my end of the bargain. It’s a quaint mom & pop with excellent service! Very clean and food came out in good timing. I had the burger & crinkle fries, my bf had 2 flavors of wings & curly fries. We were both pleasantly surprised at the quality and taste of both. Would recommend and would come back! Also bonus, the water was not that straight from the tap kind, it tasted really clear or at least filtered. Thank you!“

“Love this place! It’s a must!“

“The food is pretty good. We tried their nachos with meat. It was pretty tasty Grabbed burgers from the burger truck also pretty good with their French fries And refreshing mojitos, lemonades, and beers. The ambiance it's great. Specially for families with children. They have live music, a playground, bouncy houses amd face painting“

“it was a nice place. On the Pricey side. But it isn't something we do often“
