“So grateful we found Yoshi, nourishing delicious food and unforgettable experience. The food is of the highest quality and frequency, cruelty free, plant based made from a place of love by loving people that care about their community. Totally recommended!“
“A hidden gem! I lived in South Florida for a number of years and loved the accessibility to great coffee and pastries. I have struggled finding a place in the Orlando area. But here it is! My coffee is delicious and the pastries are incredible. I am going to recommend all of my family and friends go here. So good!“
“The food is very good, I recommend the lomo saltado, a delight, the service is undoubtedly very good, the women very friendly and helpful, the atmosphere is good although many people are a little noisy. Thank you for your time. I will surely return. ?Parking: Lots of space available“
“Came in today for quick drinks and light snacks with our pup. We of course sat outside on the patio. We had a great time! Drinks were delicious and food was great. Our server Laura was super friendly and hospitable. She made sure to keep checking on us and ensure we were having a great time. She made sure we knew what we were ordering and then Enjoyed our choices. The host was also super friendly and welcoming when we first arrived. I must also mention there was an older gentleman seated next to us who was hard of hearing. He was having an extremely hard time navigating the menu and picking out his dish of choice. The host went out of her way to thoroughly explain several menu items and offer a few suggestions to meet his needs. Her patience with him and thoughtfulness to go out of her way was very kind and heartwarming. Their staff is truly top notch and deserves to be recognized by management!! Everyone was working hard, friendly with customers, and representing the brand well.“
“Came to this place for the first time and I have to say the food is great and with lots of flavor, Butttttttttt the service is superb and I had Karla as our waitress and she was by far one of the best server I have ever encountered she knows her stuff very professional and delightful, glad I had her. To the owner please value her she is great Me the first timer“
“Papa Llama, 2840 Curry Ford Road, Orlando- 4-Stars Michelin Recommended- Bib Gourmand! Peruvian immigrants, Kevin and Maria Ruiz, say they founded Papa Llama in 2016 as an experimental pop up and opened the doors of this location in August 2020. In 2022, they earned the Michelin Guide's coveted "Bib Gourmand" award for establishments that serve good food at reasonable prices so naturally, I got excited. Paulina, my server, was well prepared and knowledgeable, making for an auspicious beginning in a gorgeous environment featuring good prices for dishes that could be made to satisfy both carnivores and herbivores alike. I ordered the entire family style menu which was, according to Papa Llama, "designed to be tasted together, shared, and fought over." So much food for just over a hundred dollars. The prices may have been cheap but the taste and quality of (most) victuals valieron un Perú! A hearty Big Boy Thank You (Sulpayki!) to Kevin and Maria and the culinary dactylograms of their ancestors, on this amazing cuisine (Somaq Mihuna!). The first item on the menu was Olives--whole green Castelvetrano olives marinated in house with aji panca--which were so delectable I could eat them all day. Next, the Red + Gold Beets, a minty beet salad with honey ají amarillo vinaigrette, queso fresco, and candied pistachio, which started out smooth and creamy and ended with a pleasantly piquant bite. Papas a la Huancaína followed, a fingerling potato dish with spicy aji amarillo cream, wakatay (black mint) salsa verde, and beef chicharron, topped with a fried egg. The potatoes themselves were not the star, but the combination of flavors in the sauce were amazing, unctuous but smooth. Papa Llama carries a long list of natural wines, more wines than food items, actually. That evening, I chose the Yuzu Sake, and may I say, "Holy smokes!" How refreshing after consuming so many peppers. The rest of the dishes I would give 4.5 to 5-Stars, EXCEPT for the side of frozen Sysco French fries which almost ruined an otherwise stellar meal. There are over 300 kinds of potatoes in Peru. Over 300! Perhaps in the United States we don't have the same abundance as found in El Valle Sagrado (the Sacred Valley) but, por favor, do not stoop to this! The Big Boy says, "Eat here. All the authentic Peruvian flavors at Papa Llama are 5-Star, but skip the fries, which are a corporate conglomerate frozen food disappointment."“
“As vegetarians, we have found it to be challenging to find strictly vegetarian/vegan eateries in the Orlando area but we never stop trying and it sure paid off! While doing a search on Happy Cow we discovered Earthy Picks and were delighted to try! It exceeded our expectations! The tacos are amazing and I devoured them! Our granddaughter enjoyed a berry smoothie and my hubs had a variety of bowl with a little bit of everything! We met the owner and her heart and soul is poured into this immaculate and inviting restaurant! Run! Don’t walk to get there! A wonderful new and much needed addition to the community!“
“As I was on my way to the Fiesta Mexico Food truck to grab some street tacos, I noticed yellow lawn signs advertising Street Tacos, which led me to Queso Loco. This restaurant had great reviews and offered a unique experience where I could choose a variety of options a la carte. I decided to try the Al Pastor, Steak, and Birria tacos and ordered a Michelada to drink. Although the presentation of all the tacos with fresh garnishes was appetizing, I found the texture and flavor of the Al Pastor and Steak to be a little underwhelming. The Al Pastor meat was dry and lacked juiciness, and the Steak was slightly over-seasoned with salt. However, the Birria taco was the best of the three, with a good amount of juicy pork. The Michelada was the highlight of the meal, with a generous amount of tamarind candy on the rim. Although I could have done without the cucumber chunks, it was still a good addition. The $9 price for the Michelada was a great deal for a non-happy hour price. Overall, I enjoyed my experience at Queso Loco, but I do feel that the texture and flavor of the Al Pastor and Steak could use some improvement. The Birria taco and Michelada were excellent, and I would recommend trying them to see if you might like other items on their menu.“

“A very nice place with a varied, fresh and healthy menu. Healthy food at a good price. I was surprised to find out that it is Venezuelan food! The people who helped me really have good energy and the smell ofFood upon entry!!! Fabulous ❤️Vegetarian options: There are grains“
“I love the look of the place and the food looks good but I got a chai and it just tasted like cinnamon milk and for $8.. that’s kinda crazy. The music was also so bad it was just covers of a bunch of popular songs, they should opt for something a little less annoying. The inside seating is good and the outdoor is cute as well but do not attempt to sit out there without headphones cause the street right next to it is so loud.“
“Autana Arepas Grill is a must-visit food truck! The people are incredibly kind, and the food – especially the arepas and hamburgers – is simply unparalleled. Don't miss out, especially on their mouthwatering hamburger truffle burger!“
“Me and my wife are always looking for GOOD Dominican food being from NY. THIS IS THE SPOT! I had the fried pork chops and they were perfectly cooked. The beans had good flavor and the portions leave you full. Check it out. Not too expensive and felt like home cooking from moms if you know what i mean. Will be back for sure. Excellent!“
“I always bring out of town people here to showcase a true Orlando spot. This is as good as BBQ gets. The added culture to the BBQ creates a bunch of great tastes in one restaurant.Vegetarian options: They have Veg options.Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options for tortilla.Parking: Not the most space because of it's great location but there is usually empty parallel street parking close by if their dedicated parking lot is full.Kid-friendliness: It isn't a quiet so no pressure taking kids.Wheelchair accessibility: They have it.“
“The food was amazing! We arrived earlier than the rest of our party, but they sat us anyway, it's small things like this that prove they want your business! The server was great, checked in several times before the rest of our party arrived and didn't rush us through the meal. Just a great place, highly recommend trying it out.“
“Had a WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE TODAY ? I’m a regular here and after my last experience that wasn’t so pleasant THEY MADE IT AMAZING Tamar our server was full of energy the manager Felicia was absolutely amazing and the GM ALEX WAS FANTASTIC CAME OUT AND SPENT HER TIME WITH US ABOUT OUR CONCERS ASWELL AS ALEX WE R SO Appreciative for this experience EVERYONE MADE SURE WE WERE TAKEN CARE OF MADE SURE THAT WE GOT EVERYTHING FIXED THANK U ? FOR THE Wonderful hospitality here we will always be regulars. Thank you for making it right. God bless you and your wonderful staff that make it so Enjoyable to come here“
“I mean it's Mexican type food. I'm not good at being critique on Mexican food, I rarely eat this.It was tasty, and they seem to be quite busy, that's a good sign.The interior IMO has pretty colors, including the chairs and tables. I have not seen so much art in a restaurant. It's nice just to admire that.From what I gather they have all types of Mexican origin snacks like coconut sweet toffee and peanut brittle.They also have a butcher store and a small grocery store inside the restaurant.Several income streams for the owners.“
“Best PR food in Orlando! Nice place, great prices for the quantity and the flavor is exquisite. I always have mofongo but today I ordered Chinese rice and I don’t regret it(best of the best ??) And they’re always nice with clients! Hope you guys continue with that great food and customer service 5⭐️“
“Quick, fast service. I got ropa Vieja, rice ? and black beans with plantains. So yummy ? I also got a Cuban coffee ☕️ delish. I’m a little upset ? everything was 15$ for lunch at 12 but season to everything was on point. I couldn’t make this my everyday place because it’s to expensive and bowl could have been filled more.“
“It was my first time eating at Kalalou and it was a great experience celebrating my fathers’ birthday. Our server Olivia was amazing! She checked up on us periodically and made sure we have everything we needed! Good job Olivia! My family and I will definitely come back.“
“Nobody else in Orlando does Peruvian food better than Aji! I have been a huge fan of their 2 other restaurant locations (Aji Ceviche Bar). Now with the Aji Express they have taken it to another level. They offer Pollo a la Braza wich is so juicy and full of flavor. They have a huge selection of dishes that are found at their other 2 restaurants. The food is always so fresh, you can taste the quality ingredients in every dish. We took my mom for Mother's Day and she was over the moon. The service was fast and the staff incredibly helpful. This Peruvian girl will be telling everyone about this new location. The quality of food you get for the price can't be beat.“
“Food, and service was amazing, very welcoming, helpful to choose food. The only thing I would suggest is for them to not put so much salt in the food. The Pernil was amazing but too salty. If they fix that it's a win win. Thank you for great food and great service ? ? see you soon.“
“Excellent Caribbean atmosphere! Perfect for all types of celebrations or to relax for a while with friends and family. Delicious food and drinks. Good music and space to have a great time. To improve service: they served us until they thought we were not going to consume any more, then they put us on the account and we had to open a new one because they stopped serving us....“
“I make breakfast burritos/tacos almost every morning so I'm hard to please when it's something I can make.The Breakfast burrito is amazing. There was a good amount of bacon, delicious gooey white cheese with eggs and tasty flavored tortillas. the flavors were excellent and the price was worth it! (I normally feel like food trucks are overpriced).The lady didn't speak English but we managed with a menu and I'll definitely be coming back.It's a food truck at a gas station so don't expect much on atmosphere (unless you know like me some of the best food comes from a food truck at a gas station) but there was parking and a table to wait for food.Sorry no photos because I ate before I could get a picture.“

“This place may surprise you. The first time I was a little worried because it is at a gas station. But don't worry about that. It really is next door and does not affect its place in any way. The food is delicious, the prices are super affordable, the food is delicious, they are very fast, the waiters have been excellent and they have a lot of variety. They have a children's menu and the spaces between tables are good. I also went on a Saturday and they had karaoke. I definitely loved the time I shared as a family. I share a photo of what I ordered. ♥️“
“My food was good plenty of flavors in my Jerk chicken pineapple bowl. Empanadas was good after letting them cool down. Shrimp was descent I'd eat it again. My cousin had the jerk chicken, was a little dry and flavor was mostly on the skin not in the actual chicken so completely different from the pineapple bowl and actual whole jerk chicken. Atmosphere was nice you have a choice for inside or outside.Parking: The restaurant parking was full so I just parked in the other parking for the shopping centers so you should be able to find parking just may have to walk further.“
“I came in with my friend who raves that this is one of his favorite food spots in Orlando and I can see why! Good food where you can taste the love and great service! I had the pork sandwich and I love the contrast of the savory pork and sweetness of the plantains! YUM I also have a big sweet tooth so the tres leches cake was super moist and nice hints of cinnamon. Very homey vibes from the food to the decor!“
“My BFF came here for happy hour and our server, Kaidan (apologies for misspelling) was fantastic!!! We sat outside, weather was perfect, food was amazing and the beer was cold!! Such a perfect evening with super amazing friendly service from our server to the food expo was friendly!! Everyone was happy to help and show their appreciation! Thank you Bahama Breeze staff for making my friend and my night together extra special!!“
“Definitely the best Cuban sandwiches north of Miami.If you're interested in something more like arroz and serve it up with your favorite pernil, chicken , and beef accompanied with beans , you might as well have a potatoe ball. Or a delicious empanada and my favorite pork rinds. I definitely love this place. I have been enjoying Cubans on the Run since 1994.“
“In my opinion, which is my own, I will always give it to all the workers at the establishment and I give more respect to the girls who, for me, don't know the other people who through that place give us our tastes, which is the food they eat ( They make and offer us with such sweetness, they are warriors who work hard every day to try to further elevate their prestige and their business. I congratulate you excellent girls ?? and especially to Patricia and Melisa ????“

“My 17 year old wanted her cake here! Their cakes are delicious but they branded hers with a white chocolate wafer with Fortuna Bakery on her birthday cake and I found that the only downfall. We don’t want an advertisement on her cake. Next time leave that off. We got the Fantasia cake. She had a great day! Thank you!“
“recomiendo 10000% ...la comida y atención super buena. Muy limpio y organizado....Adicional quiero comentar algo muy importante estoy eternamente agradecida con la Sra que atiende la mayoría del tiempo, pienso que es la dueña pues este miércoles 16 de Febrero 2022 fui a comer allí y tuve un percance de Salud y ella lo dió todo hasta que llegó el servicio de emergencias....Creo que si no hubiese actuado tan rápido no estaría para contarlo....Agradecida de ayudar a mi madre en el proceso....No sabe como me siento pues no todos los comercios demuestran nobleza y usted sobrepasó eso......Muchas gracias, espero le llegue el mensaje Gracias Yoally Denise“
“Staff are super friendly. I get the small Cuban, quesito pastry, cafe con leche, and a jarrito almost every time for ~$21; the quality is consistently good. No drive-thru.Parking: Small lot behind the cafe, but the hospital has tons of free parking in the deck and is only a 5 minute walk.“

“Brand new location and we have heard from Miami friends that this place is the best. Went in on a Saturday about noon and it was packed. Staff was super friendly even though you can see they were swamped. The Cafe con Leche and Quesitos were fantastic. We will be “
“Hottest and best food truck in Orlando. Safe to say I've tried almost everything this truck has to offer and I cannot speak about any bad experiences. Even with long lines at times they are quick and efficient. The area is at a great location surrounded by local bars. The food! The quality and flavor in each bite is unmatched. Food truck food is my love language and this truck speaks it every time!“
“We stopped since we have seen great reviews here in Google , and it DID NOT disappointed; dont let the looks outside fool you ; they have buffet style food serving behind the counter ready to go but seeing another customers coming in We realized they make empanadas and other goodies ready to eat on the road; we did a quick bite and really enjoyed it ; the most we savored was the colombian empanada; very very tasty ?! Highly recommended overall if you live by this area !“
“The culinary selection on the menu was wonderful. Our appetizer was flavorful with multiple pieces of each variety. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his entre, eating everything on his plate. I chose a fish for dinner I had never heard of prior to our dining experience. It was tremendous!“
“I have used this place even for my daughter quinceañera (100 people) they always deliver excellence quality and great prices. In the holidays I used their food I’m never disappointed. Place is clean and impeccable the presentation of the food. The ladies are super nice.“
“Excellent food, SUPER friendly employee willing to go over the menu and options, she offered various substitution options and fresh agua fresca tastings. The chef/owner came out of the kitchen to ask what we thought of his food. Highly recommend this place to EVERYONE!! 10/10 excelente trabajo Piñones en Orlando!!“
“First time here and we loved it.We had the family combo and it feeds 4 very hungry people. When we arrived there was no one there but I think we may have showed up too early because little by little the place started to get packed.The food came and we did not have to wait much, smelled amazing and it was fresh and flavorful. We will definitely come back and try something else on their menu.“
“Scoping out Chayote for a possible birthday dinner. Came in early for happy hour at the bar. Katie, our server, was excellent! The tuna tartare was phenomenal, so much so we ordered a second. Super bright and great texture on a crispy tostone. Loved how thin the cracker was but it held its shape after one night. These were better than many tuna dishes we have had a sushi bars. The shrimp croquettes were nice and creamy inside the crispy shell. Loved the vegan soup for several reasons. It reminded my hubby of the beef barley soup (but this is a vegan dish) his mom made when he was a little. The crispy yuca threads reminded us of our favorite Chinese dish Seafood pan fried noodles, the gave texture to the dish along with the cubes of veggies. There are a few other dishes I'd like to try but the entree prices are out of range. Going at happy hour gave us a nice intro to Chayote.“
