“one of our favorite spots in Orlando. elevated Mexican with great drinks and food“

“What a great spot!!! So happy we met a guy at another restaurant that recommended Otto's to us.The staff was accommodating, the servers great (with great energy), the food was tasty, and the drink-a-links were super enjoyable.We started with the oysters and ceviche, fresh all around.Moved on to the Media Noche, some Ropa Vieja, and a Ribeye. All excellent!!! A bit of rice and beans, because Cuban!!! And all along a bunch of concoctions from the bar kept us on our toes, the flavors!!!We sat in the patio, which made us feel as if we were in an Uncle's "marquesina". Comfortable and inviting with a bar set up in a little cart that is part of the restaurant, but has it's own cocktail menu.... Fun!!! ?After chatting with the chef, we learned there will be tweaks coming to the menu, and I can't wait to see what they come up with.Should you try it out? ?!!Small place all around, and very limited space in the patio as well. Do make sure you call ahead. Go with time, as you'll want to try a lot of the items. Enjoy!!!“

“Interesting concept but it seems working well. In Japan we have Yakitori restaurant which more like bar. Kind of same concept. Stop by after work walk in sit down at bar get drink and small skewered foods. We will be back for quick bite for sure!“

“Great music/atmosphere, friendly staff and the vegetarian sushi was TO DIE FOR!! ✨Can’t wait to go back during my next Orlando trip!“

“I love this place! I go in for amazing food during the day and if I decide to go out at night it is the perfect spot to be. Different dj’s every night which allows people with different music taste to enjoy. Also, pizza till 1 am… Can’t complain“

“So delicious! Excellent service from everyone, especially our server Shaun. He was so thorough and answered all our questions. The Cedar Key clams were to die for! I had the scallops and my husband had the burger for dinner- so freaking amazing ! I can’t say enough about this place! The owner was walking through the dining room checking on everyone, greeting everyone - thank you Carol for an exceptional experience!“

“Excellent food, wait staff and over all service. Great experience every time I visit“

“Great food and atmosphere. Convenient location.“

“Rum, Rum, and more Rum. Great selection!“

“Very unassuming cocktail bar within the Entertainment District of downtown Orlando. This used to be a Subway restaurant, and that will forever make me laugh. The interior decor is something straight out of dark academia (minus the taxidermy and oddities). It's extremely tasteful, cozy, and straight up out of a West Elm (dark & haunted) magazine. They have one of the best allocated bourbon selections downtown, the service is friendly, and the menu is laid out as it is. The vibe current n a Friday night at quarter til midnight - chillhop music, good vibes, and overall a place id love to bring friends for a night out.“

“The Guesthouse has become my ultimate go-to for a chill night out in Orlando. Great bartenders, nice crowd, good music, easy parking, and modern yet cozy vibes. Even though they don't serve food, it looks like they host some food vendor pop-up events and one is allowed to bring in food from Black Rooster taqueria next door (I've never seen anyone doing it though). Their sister bar, Sunroom, is well worth a visit if you want a change to a more sophisticated and quieter ambiance and expanded cocktail offerings.“

“Came here based of a recommendation from my older brother who said this was a very solid whiskey place downtown. I came early on a Saturday night, and unfortunately, was met with quite a different crowd than I was expecting. In the evenings they offer ladies drink free until 11, which is an awesome appeal for folks that are looking for somewhere to start their night. However, the DJ they had there was playing the music so loud barely anyone, even the staff, could hear. There's also a certain clientele that comes with offering free drinks so there were women jumping up and down on the tables which the DJ had to constantly address and stop the music to get them to come down. I was told that this was the whiskey bar and I asked for Maker's Mark which they didn't have. That's a very basic option. I then stepped it up and asked for Woodford reserve and they didn't have that either. Not sure this is actually a whiskey bar or if they're just a bar during the day and then a dance club at night. The bartenders both are very young and did not know a lot about pouring drinks so the consistency was terrible. I can't quite understand what the theme or vibe of the bar is supposed to be because they're playing sports on the TV and then R&B music from the DJ, then they have some tables on one side but then an open dance floor + couches on the other. Really confusing situation and we ended up leaving over to the Robinson which has a very dedicated style and atmosphere. They delivered consistency in our drinks. I'm going to consider coming back one more time during the day or evening with my older brother to see what he saw in this place but I won't be back for a nighttime experience. The main bar being a giant tree slab is super cool. Should find a way to light that up and make it a focus of the bar. Connect the mission or efforts to something "Woods" related. Smoked drinks would fit right in here. Consider doing it for every drink so you start a signature.“

“excellent service!!!! very good food“

“We had an awesome meal and the service was excellent! Very pleasant, quick and delicious!!!“

“Great atmosphere and great steak!!“

“My wife and were anxiously waiting for this restaurant to open. We went this Friday (May 5th) and were not disappointed. First, the restaurant is beautifully decorated. The ambient music was at a perfect level with a definite South Beach feel. We interacted with several servers and each of them provided excellent service. The menu has enough diversity to satisfy anyone's tastes. To start, we had an appetizer that consisted of scallops covers in parmesan cheese that was melted at the table with a torch. For our entrees, I had a beef dish (Lomo Saltado), while my wife had a pork dish (Arroz chaufa with pork). Everything was delicious. They have quite a few specialty drinks in their cocktail menu. We each had a different drink and both were very tasty. We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at Piscos and look forward to going back.“
