Most reasonably priced and casual restaurant inside of the Amway Grand Plaza. Nice vibes and good food. Bao was decent but the chocolate soufflé was superb! Our server was nothing to rave about (he was bland). They do have rooms downstairs for more private party dining. (May go back to try more items… heard the burger and Pad Thai are yummy.)

Had an early dinner reservation so the restaurant was not too busy when we arrived. For an appetizer, we ordered the brussels sprouts and they were delicious. It was a great size portion to share for two people while we visited and waited for our meal. For dinner, we ordered the salmon dish and ribeye dish(medium rare). Both dinners were cooked unevenly, unfortunately. The steak was rare on one end and borderline medium well on the other. The Salmon was overcooked slightly and some of the carrots were hard, but overall everything tasted good and was well seasoned so we opted not to mention it. It was thoughtful of our waitress to let us know the soufflé would take about 20 minutes before ordering dessert so we went with the creme brulee instead. It was very good and had the perfect crispy top and the berries were fresh and sweet.Overall, our favorite part of the meal was the brussels by far.

Loved this dining experience. Superb food and cocktails. The staff was highly professional and took the time to talk to us. Brian had great recommendations and we sat close to where Charlie was spinning the most perfect pizza pies while making everyone around him happy. Fantastic atmosphere. So glad we went.

Can’t get Carl the manager to reply back to me re the details for their Easter brunch. Have called numerous times and he promises to email me the details and doesn’t follow through. I’ve also left multiple messages w the staff reminding him.

The waiter was nice and cool place. We were there for 2 hours, almost missed our show at devos. Took forever. Food came out barely warm and the waiter didn't spilt checks correctly, then didn't charge us correctly and I ended up paying for everything on my card instead of the cash being used for the other check.

I tried Pad Thai & Kung Pao Chicken Wrap & Meat loaf. The meet loft was great, the other two are too salty and saucy. Hope the kitchen will see this comment and put less salt and sauce to the dishes!

The absolute best dirty martini and short rib I've ever had. Our server was the best. River views made for a great date night.Vegetarian options: They have a couple vegetarian options, but were very accommodating when we asked to remove meat from the brussel sprout appetizer.

Had a wonderful experience celebrating a dear friend's Birthday. Will definitely go back for another special occasion. Only challenge was using stairs to get to bathroom. A conventional was on break, and another party going on made it difficult to navigate through to restroom.

Great table next to the window overlooking the river. Our waiter was great and the food fantastic. Paired with reasonable prices and its a winner. Fairly quiet, great for a business dinner.

We went here for my husband's birthday and LOVED IT! This place has a great atmosphere and has a downstairs with rooms dedicated to private parties/meetings. I loved seeing the view of the river and everything we ate was cooked to perfection. I had a chocolate souffle for the first time and I am IN LOVE! My husband said that the short rib was the best he has ever had and liked this restaurant more than Hell's Kitchen! We will definitely be back!!

We ordered the chips with blue cheese, Caesar salad, and the sausage pizza. The pizza was good, but not great. The chips with blue cheese were amazing as always and the Caesar salad was delicious and fresh. We have eaten here many times and the food is always good, but never amazing. I would recommend this place because it's a solid place to eat, but don't expect it to be the best meal you have ever had.

This was a great fine dinning experience. The wiener schnitzel was better than I had in Europe.

Really great - fantastic service! We had the lettuce wraps as an app - delish! My husband had the meatloaf and onion rings and I had the sausage fennel pizza. Both were awesome. For dessert we shared the malted milk chocolate creme brûlée. Outstanding! I highly recommend- we will visit again!

Consistency is KEY! The service and food are always on point. Some dishes take a bit of time to prepare but the amazing servers like Carmen, Garret and Belle make certain to ask the right questions about your dining expectations to ensure a smooth and well timed dinner experience. Our favorites here are the Margherita Pizza, brussel sprouts, chopped salad, oven roasted 1/2 chicken, and chocolate soufflé! We’ve never been disappointed with any meal.
