    I went to Allure Lounge with one of my homegirls to celebrate Galentine's Day and we had such a good time! I highly recommend making reservations, especially for brunch, because it definitely gets busy. Parking options were convenient there's a parking garage, a lot across the street, and a small lot right next to the building. If you get there early enough, you can grab a close spot (just be prepared to pay for parking). When we walked in, the hostess greeted us warmly and gave us a full rundown of the brunch menu. They offer two set options: * $30 - Chicken, waffle, French toast, scrambled eggs, a slice of bacon, and biscuits * $40 - Steak instead of chicken, plus everything listed above Both options come with 90 minutes of bottomless mimosas with flavors like mango, orange, cranberry, pineapple, and strawberry. If you wanted anything outside of that, you had to order directly from the bar. The hostess initially sat us at a table with a pillar slightly blocking our view lol. My friend looked at me like, "Are you okay with us being hidden?" But honestly, we were there for a good time, not a long time so we made it work! Our waiter, Kel, immediately came over with waters and got the mimosas flowing. He was on point the entire time and kept the drinks coming which I appreciated because my friend and I are disabled, and getting up constantly to go to the mimosa bar would have been a lot. Thankfully, Kel made sure we were good. The DJ was and really kept the energy up. He even did a little karaoke moment that had the crowd engaged. The vibe was definitely grown and sexy, which I loved. It felt mature, fun, and upscale all at once. My friend actually knew the owner, so I got to meet him. He was incredibly kind and attentive. Every time I go out and have drinks, I have to order fries it's a thing! Even though fries weren't on the set menu, he made it happen for me and even said he'd consider adding them moving forward. That kind of customer service goes a long way. He also made sure we had water at the table and checked on us throughout our visit. The establishment itself is very nice, clean, and gives upscale vibes. Even the bathroom was clean and well-kept which always matters! My only suggestion: instead of having guests go to the bar for the bottomless option, it would be great to place the juice options and a bottle of champagne directly on the table so the waiter can simply replace bottles as needed. It would make the experience smoother, especially for guests with mobility challenges. Overall, for my first time, I'd give it a 9/10. I'll definitely be back and I'd love to experience their nightlife next!

    Had the pleasure of attending Allure lounge for Sunday brunch we pre-booked our VIP service I splurged on the more expensive package, which was very unpleasing. The service was amazing. The ambience was to die for unfortunately, the food just did not please but the unlimited mimosa were a hit, the DJ was fired and it really was a good time. I would recommend just make sure you eat before going.

    Really beautiful inside. The food is good and they play good music. They have a huge menu with a lot of options. I thought it was a crazy idea at first but sometimes a wide variety is needed lol they have everything from chicken wings to curry goat. The potions are generous and the service was friendly and accommodating. I visited for a birthday dinner. They have a cool ring light area for the perfect photos.

    My friends and I drove to Orlando to check out the "Sak Pasé" Brunch at Allure. The venue itself is stylish, and there's a convenient paid parking lot right next to the restaurant. The live DJ set the vibes perfectly with great music that kept the energy up throughout brunch. Our server was attentive and made sure all our needs were met, which I truly appreciated. The food was tasty, though I was expecting Haitian flavors considering the name of the brunch. Another drawback for me was the $15 reservation fee, which felt unnecessary. Overall, it was an enjoyable brunch with a fun atmosphere, good service, and lively crowd.

    I really want to like Allure. I have attended some great events here and had great times. However, the service is very slow and it's typically hot if there is a crowd. The bartenders tend to be very nice and have great attitudes but it takes forever to get a drink. I'm sure I will visit again but I will definitely get a drink elsewhere first and bring a personal fan.

    Absolutely the BEST spot in downtown Orlando! The decor is so chic and sexy. It is a whole elevated elegance vibe The food was just amazing. My children (ages 6,8,10 and 15) LOVED it! While this typically is a grown and sexy place it is important to me that children experience CULTURED upscale dining. The service was on point ! We had a server and an assistant server and any other server that walked by would make sure we were ok! The very next day my friend hosted her birthday party here and she was speechless with the service and the way they catered to all of us!

    I really wanted to LOVE Allure Lounge, but each time I visit, it just falls a bit below the bar of expectation for me. The space/venue has some beautiful moments in the decor choices made. It's great for events and birthdays. There's an upstairs and downstairs, which is always pretty cool in the restaurant world from a customer experience. I cannot speak for the staff, but I feel that is probably more annoying (but one can only assume). All that aside, where this restaurant continues to fall short is in service and food. The drinks are decent and standard as far as pricing goes. So, don't expect to come to save a buck when it comes to drinks (this includes mocktails - which I have a bone to pick with MOST places about their mocktail menus and pricing in general). As for the food, it is MID at best. I should preface with the fact that I've only had their brunch. I cannot speak to anything outside of that. My very first experience of brunch at Allure Lounge was not too long after they had been open. I went with a few friends, and we ordered our selections and sat there nearly an HOUR before the food was served. For a wait that long, I expected TENDERISM! I got none of that. It was a standard breakfast that was lukewarm at best. During our wait, we finished our first round of drinks and ordered another round, only for part of the table to get their second drink on time and the rest of us (me included) to wait for a second drink to arrive AFTER our long-awaited meal selections. Despite the staff being lively, since a DJ was jamming the entire time, it didn't make up for the fact that they were not attentive to the table(s). At the time we arrived, it was before the brunch rush hour, so our meals taking as long as they did was just confusing. I am not sure if they are short-staffed in the kitchen (which, if that is the case, mentioning that to us as customers is good so that we can manage our expectations of when our food will be out) or what, but we really should not have waited so long for standard breakfast food. I can see if maybe I ordered lamb chops, but I legit ordered FRENCH TOAST! Anyways, while the venue is great for events and drinks, I've made it a point to not eat there if at all possible. The wait times are abysmal. I hope they can sort this out so that they can remain open because the venue really does have some lovely decor moments and is pretty nice for curated events. If not, I am not quite sure how it will fare among other surrounding businesses in the long run.

    What a great date night, girls night, fellas night, any kind of hang out night. The DJ was great, live band was fire, and the food was so so good. The manager helped us because they had a wedding pre-party. We made a reservation and sat in the back room. It was cozy, intimate, and I'm happy we gave it a chance. I booked a regular table and was initially disappointed. But we were still able to order food and enjoyed every minute of it. I will say the steak is a very cheap cut of meat. I thought it was overcooked, they shined a light on it and showed me it was medium like I ordered. But it was very tough and chewy. But the pasta was fire. We can't wait to go back for another date night. The vibe is grown, sophisticated, and sexy.

    This spot was absolutely gorgeous, right in the heart of downtown Orlando, with such a nice vibe for a brunch event. The staff was super friendly and welcoming, which really set the tone. I ordered the chicken and waffles; while it wasn't the best I've ever had, it was still okay. The presentation was really cute, but the chicken came out a little overcooked and fried a bit too hard. The tots and fries combo was definitely different and fun, and my friend really enjoyed theirs! Overall, I'd go back again for sure... just next time, I'll try out a different dish.

    The service was slow but the dining hall was crowded. The waitress went out of her way to explain some of the delay but when my food finally arrived with broccoli in it (I am allergic to broccoli) that had not been listed on the menu I decided it just wasn't my night. I'd likely try again under different circumstances. I feel like the kitchen and bar were just completely understaffed and overwhelmed.

    Allure Restaurant and Lounge is a great brunch spot with a stylish vibe and an upbeat atmosphere. The DJ had a nice mix of RnB and Afrobeats which made the brunch feel like a whole experience rather than just a meal. The unlimited mimosas are the star of the show and I loved being able to switch up the mixers throughout brunch. Food wise the steak and eggs with chimichurri was my top pick. The lamb chops were seasoned well. I personally think mashed potatoes would pair better than fries but it was still enjoyable. If you like a sweet option the French Toast Suzette with bacon was fruity and delicious. Service was friendly and the drinks were on point. I tried a signature cocktail that was so good I forgot the name so definitely ask your server for their best recommendation. Overall Allure is worth adding to your brunch list if you want good food great drinks and a lively RnB and Afrobeats brunch vibe.

I bought 3 chicken tacos (about 12 dollars), then sat in an empty table to wait. It was ready for me in under 10 minutes.

The sauce was small, but still ample enough to pour over the three tacos. The flavors were pretty good (thanks to the heat from the sauce) and it was filling enough for me, though the flour tortillas was a bit too hard for me. The service was pretty good, though I ordered from the kiosk and I picked up my order after they called my name. However, they did check up on me, as well a provided water to cops, and removed empty items from the tables. The staff were quite friendly. The dining area was small and a bit boring. There were 2TVs showing ads for their products, and 1 displaying a horse race. The restaurant was quite cramped, and I was thankful to find a table. It's located in downtown, so parking will be either in a meter or a garage. This restaurant serves pretty good tacos at a reasonable price, but the atmosphere was a bit bland for a taqueria. It was also small and can get crowded and full easily. Best to have this to go or delivered. It's still a nice restaurant for tacos in downtown.

I was impressed that after my first visit,…read morethe Manager, Ken Melton, contacted me to discuss some issues I experienced per my review last month. Mr. Melton asked specific questions relative to the date I initially dined and other circumstances with certain food items. Based on this recent visit, I found out one of the chefs in the kitchen that first night I dined is no longer employed there. Obviously, this person was let go as they did not follow the quality standards instilled by Mr. Melton based on the experience and the meal I had this evening. I invited my fellow Yelp friend, Ricki, to join me as she was interested in this restaurant herself. She was impressed with the ambience of the restaurant as well as our exceptional server, Ashlyn. Ashlyn was truly a five star server. She was diligent in her duties, provided lively conversation and just added to the overall relaxing and enjoyable evening. (She also makes a great cosmopolitan, which I'll get to later in the review.) As for the food, this visit was truly a gratifying experience also. I recommended the spanakopita to Ricki based on my first visit, and she was impressed with the platter and the amount of food presented as the appetizer. She also ordered the Lamb Lollipops (French rack of Lamb, cooked, medium, and seasoned well). She had me try one of them and I agreed they were outstanding. She finished off her magical dining experience with the baklava cheesecake for dessert and declared she was more than satisfied with the overall meal. As for me, I gave the Ouzo Mussles a second try. The presentation alone was quite different from my initial experience with this appetizer. (See the previous picture and the recent picture.) The creamy ouzo sauce, enhanced with garlic, onion, basil and tomato was divine. No salty taste, plus you could tell the mussles were fresh, as Ricki agreed. I noticed that this time, the appetizer included sliced Parmesan cheese on top of the mussels (as stated on the menu ), but was missing from the appetizer during my initial visit. (Possibly why one new kitchen chef was appropriately let go?) For my entrée, I chose Chicken Rhodes, which consisted of perfectly grilled chicken breast slices, sautéed with artichoke, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach and olives. it was topped with feta cheese and served with roasted vegetables. It was an excellent dish! For dessert, I had Mama's Honey Cake. It was just as good as the first time I had it. For drinks, Ricki started off with The Painkiller. Based on the smile on her face, I knew she was enjoying that drink selection. For me, I went with the Pomegranate Cosmopolitan, which I had last time and thoroughly enjoyed that concoction. For our second round of drinks, Ashlyn recommended I add mango to this drink, which she created herself. When Ricki heard mango, she decided to have that as her second choice also. Besides being a great waitress, Ashlyn definitely possesses excellent bartender skills. The drinks were presented with an orange slice and a lime peel and were heavenly. They were so good, we decided to have one more to complete the evening. Thank you, Mr. Melton, for taking the time to listen to customer feedback and taking necessary action to keep up the high standards of this restaurant. A special shoutout to Mike, the Night Manager, who stopped by our table and had a nice conversation with us. We will definitely be back.

We looked over the happy hour menu (good all day on Monday nights and Tuesday through Friday 5-7pm). We ask Mel about the "Bartender's Choice" selection under happy hour drinks. She said the bartender will mix a drink of their preference. The customer cannot choose the alcohol or any mixers as the bartender makes the decisions all by him or herself. Mel asked if we had any allergies or any other issues that might affect the drinks the bartender would like to make. We said we did not and we decided to take on this "choice" experience. Serena was the bartender of the evening and she did an amazing job. She mixed up various concoctions for us throughout the night (we ordered a second round after the first one) and we enjoyed every drink she prepared. The presentation of the drinks were also well done. Serena's cocktails consisted of bourbon, rum, and various ingredients which could include bitters, lemon, agave or other cocktail mixers. She was the bartender extraordinaire of the evening. For food, we ordered the half dozen chicken wings (2 orders since they were so good) and the pizza empanadas to start. The two empanadas had mozzarella cheese stuffed inside and were served with a warm marinara. From the main menu, we ordered the Faroe Island Salmon, which was served on a bad of risotto and tomato butter, with capers. The portion of the salmon was somewhat small for the price of $28, but it and the risotto were cooked perfectly. We ended the night with their signature drink, "Death in the Afternoon" which contains absinthe and is one of my favorite drinks here in Orlando. It was another five star experience and my friend found a new restaurant she now loves. All in all, a great night thanks to the attentiveness and easy-going attitude of Mel, our server, and the exceptional cocktails from the bartender, Serena. Thank you both for a job very well done!

    This was our second visit to the Monroe and it was enjoyable. This time the service was slightly…read moreslow, we had drinks that we didn't like and it took about 20 minutes for our server to return to the table to get orders for new drinks. We ordered the buffalo chicken egg rolls and the deviled eggs (with no bacon) as appetizers. For our new drinks we got margaritas, I got a regular margarita and my partner got a passion fruit margarita. For entrees, I had the famous fried chicken and my hubby had the meatloaf. The ambiance of the restaurant was nice, relaxed, they keep the shades lowered during the day to reduce that sun intake and it's lovely. It feels nice and relaxed in here no matter the weather outside. Again, we enjoyed the experience but the service was fairly slow. We had to pretty much know what we wanted by the next time we saw our server or flag her down to get her attention. She was waiting about 4 tables on our area. We were party of two.

    If you're a fan of crispy, thin crust tavern-style pizza and amazing wings, you'll love Nuri's…read moreTavern! I love the throwback, retro bowling alley feel of the place. Ordered via QR code menu: double pepperoni pizza, garlic parm wings, and an espresso martini. The wings were hot, crispy, and flavored with fresh garlic and butter - the side of homemade ranch was perfect. The pizza had pepperoni cups and was deliciously thin but filling. The espresso martini was great. All a little pricey, but that's to be expected downtown. Felt it was a good value and a great spot - I'll definitely be back!

    I love pizza and probably eat it at least once a week, so when I saw Nuri's Tavern on TikTok, their…read morethin crust pizza immediately caught my attention. I knew I had to try it! The restaurant has such a cool atmosphere with a mix of retro and vintage decor. They offer both low and high top seating, but we chose the couch for a more comfortable and relaxed vibe. It's a great place to hang out with friends because they have a large projector playing movies and a little corner filled with board games and card games. You order by scanning a QR code, which I really liked because we didn't have to wait for someone to take our order. Everything came out fast, and I mean FAST! We started playing Uno to pass the time, but we didn't even finish one game before our appetizer arrived. We ordered the creamy Caesar salad, and it was a 10/10. Caesar salad is my favorite, so that says a lot! It came with larger pieces of romaine lettuce and a delicious garlic crunch topping. For our pizzas, we ordered the vodka pizza and the pepperoni pizza. I had seen reviews saying that the vodka pizza was overly salty, and I can agree that it was on the saltier side. However, ordering multiple items helped balance it out. The pepperoni pizza was delicious, and the thin, crispy crust on both pizzas was perfect. Nuri's is a great option when you want to indulge without eating anything too heavy. I'm already excited for my next visit, and I definitely plan on bringing more friends!
