Hands down their Tasting Room is one of my favorite spots for cocktails and tapas in Orlando. The asian beef is so juicy and smoky, honestly the best kabobs I've ever had. The duck fries and asian beef kababs are to die for. Without fail will always order these. Other notable menu items are the chefs tacos, tasting room wings, and shrimp fritters. The white sangria and peach fizz are my favorite drinks. Overall its not cheap, but definitely worth the splurge especially during happy hour. Overall 11/10 and highly recommend. read more

Situated at downtown winter garden, very cute place, very dark! We came here on a sat for lunch and it had plenty of people! The staff is super friendly. I got the BLT, it was pretty good! With a side of fries, which was really tasty too! I would definitely come back and try something else too! The burgers looked good! read more

Food here is special. Uniquely crafted. Chef pays attention to detail. Service is wonderful. It's a quaint dining room, quiet, soft music so you can actually talk to your company. There's no place like it. read more

Used to go to this place every week but unfortunately since the bartender Eric left it has gone downhill tremendously. Both the service and the ambience and atmosphere have been terrible every time we've been since. The new young partner cusses 24/7, his girlfriend is always hanging out taking a seat at the bar.. for the amount of $$$ I am spending at this place he is not the bartender for this.. If I wanted to go to a divebar I would go to Tony's down the street which is where it seems like he should be working.. He talks trash about everyone constantly at the bar he constantly uses the F word and other cussing Language every sentence he has out of his mouth and there is no hi how are you or any customer service at all whatsoever from him . Or checking back. Sees u sit down and decides to continue to talk crap rather than serve you. We will not be returning to Chefs Table until he's gone and his drinks are not very good either - They are very unbalanced. Not great bartender at all. Needs to go back to a pool bar... Unfortunately after going there several times with my friends since he's worked there every time has been a disappointment and really unfortunate. For the level of money spending I expect people to say hello how are you be prompt about their service check back on the food etc. basic service things for a good restaurant and server or Bartender in general as it would be requirements of the job.. but he doesn't bother and doesn't seem to care either. His attitude is very indifferent ... He seems to talk to his girlfriend sitting at the end of the bar which has happened multiple times but yet ignores every customer their empty drinks/plates, waiting to order food etc.. His gf at this point takes a seat at the bar which another patron could've used... and then paying customers get ignored.. he continuously talks to the other servers instead of attending to actual bar patrons. Unfortunately nothing good to say at this point about Chefs Table.. it's going downhill and that's really unfortunate as we used to love it we miss Eric, he was personable caring and creative with his drinks.. and I don't know what happened to him but the drinks have gone downhill since the service is gone and the ambience and atmosphere is downgraded greatly. Really disappointed. We'll never go to an upscale bar or find any restaurant where the bartender ignores you and cusses every other word. So inappropriate. I seriously don't know how the managers don't know this isn't OK and why he is still there read more

Popped in to this little jewel for Brunch with the Bae and The Chef's Table did not disappoint! From the time we walked in until the time we left, everything was ah-mazing! The greeters were welcoming and our server, Anthony, was wonderful...(more about him in a sec.) It was hubby's turn to pick the brunch spot, so I had no idea where we were going, BUT I must say, he done good! He even agreed to a photo. LOL The restaurant itself is a bit dark for my liking, but what it lacked in lighting, it made up for it in charm. Plus, I'm a sucker for tucked away places. It wasn't overly crowded inside or outside. We shared the smoked fish dip before our meals arrived! Yummy!!! Hubby had the full portion shrimp and grits and I enjoyed the chicken and waffles...notice I said, "chicken" and waffles not waffles and chicken. The portions were generous and neither of us complained about our meals. Lastly, I can't forget to mention how fast the food came out after we ordered and how accommodating Anthony (our server) was. He made suggestions before we ordered and responded quickly each time we needed something. We will not only recommend The Chef's Table to family and friends, but we'll definitely come again! read more

Popped in on a Sunday evening and since we had not made reservations for their fancy multi-course upscale dining experience we were seated in the Tasting Room. Loads of superbly prepared small plates and salads give you a sampling of their gourmet chef's wide range of delectable entrees and sides! We had an incredible Hamachi Crudo that was expertly seasoned and so addictive that my husband and I almost licked the plate! The Beef Wellington was divine, too! Our cocktails were perfection ( a delicious mule!) and I'm quite relieved I don't live close enough to become a regular at their happy hour! read more

What a wonderful location!! First things first we made a reservation!! We dined at the chefs table so only two other parties in that location. Upon arriving we were brought to our table immediately.. the host was pleasant and kind. We were greeted and right away ordered pecan pie to drink( this drink was strong) so strong I had to order something a little sweeter. Strawberry fields was my next drink of choice which was so sweet and refreshing!! For our first course we had the Crab Maque Choux, very tasty and if your looking for something filling to start this is your choice. I thought it was made perfectly! We also had the Pan seared Foie Gras, so delicious best first course on the menu!! The sweetness and so many flavors texture you must try!! For the main course I went traditional I had the fillet!! It was perfectly cooked and just the perfect amount of char tender and juicy. We also had the pork ribeye, holy cow I mean pig of flavors it's like a party in your mouth!! So much food!! We couldn't finish it. For desert I had the butterscotch crème brûlée,the sugar was perfectly torched and the crème was warms and delicious. We also had the chocolate cheesecake very rich and just the perfect amount of sweetness!! The server was brilliant, sweet understanding and patient!! He gets 100% from me!! He knows his menu!!! Everything came out in a timely manor and was delightful!! They get $$$ from me but totally worth every penny!! We highly recommend this location!! Perfect for date nights!! read more

I finally got a chance to visit the Tasting Room of Chef's Table... Oh. My. Goodness. Absolutely loved it here. The food is scrumptious and the portions are SO generous- with the drinks, food, everything. So unexpected and such a great surprise. We didn't have reservations, but they were able to seat us within a few minutes. We were seated at a super cozy booth in the back of the dining room. The decor is everything. It just makes you want to order a fancy drink with your pinkies up. We started with a round of drinks- I got a sparkling sangria; my mom got a Moscow Mule. The portion for sangria was GENEROUS- a huge glass of sangria for $9- count me in. And the bartenders were generous with the alcohol in the Mule. We were VERY happy with our drinks! Next, we ordered a picnic of appetizers as our dishes. We got the duck fat fries, mini beef Wellington trio, wings, and foie gras. Let me start off saying- THE DUCK FRIES ARE THE BEST FRIES I HAVE EVER HAD. The aioli on the side was absolute perfection. I have been thinking about these fries in my dreams ever since I had them. If I lived closer, I would be eating duck fat fries... right now. Also, there is such an abundance of fries that we had plenty to take home. The mini beef Wellington's were yummy- the short rib inside of the puff pastry just falls apart because it's so tender. The wings were very tasty- the bleu cheese on the side was bombbb. The foie gras was delectable- I loved it more and more with every bite. This quad-fecta of appetizzies was great for two- we left happy and full! I would order alllll four again, happily. (Next time, I want to try the Chicken & Waffles- the table next to us got them, and it looked amazing!) Lastly, we ordered the lemon pie to go! Delish! It was like a key lime pie... but with lemon! It had the perfect balance of sweet and sour, accompanied by a salty and crunchy crust, and perfectly-made chantilly cream. The service in the restaurant is fantastic. Our serve, JJ, was so helpful, attentive, and kind. We were so happy to be seated in her section. She gave us an interesting background of the restaurant/owners (which was really insightful when you breakdown the menu) and gave us some great recommendations! Another male in the dining room that was assisting bringing out the food was very nice to us. What a wonderful restaurant. I couldn't say enough good things about Chef's Table. I can't wait to do the 3-course prix fixe menu, anddd come back to the Tasting Room for our greatest hits (AND THOSE FRIES). Everyone must try this place!! It'll definitely be my go-to in Winter Garden. Sorry for only including two photos- once the fries came, I literally forgot about everything else ;) read more

The best food, bar and service! I have eaten here several times and the food and service is exceptional!

I have the pleasure of dining at Chef's table frequently and I must say, is always an exceptional culinary experience from start to finish.

The food is amazing. Service was perfect. Lovely atmosphere. Quite expensive but with it.

We returned for another anniversary dinner at The Chef's Table, and it was as amazing as I remembered it. The Chef's Table is an intimate dining experience just adjacent to the kitchen. FOOD & DRINKS (5/5): They offer a variety of offerings on their three course fixed price dinner. The selections vary depending on the season. You can also add a wine pairing with your courses. I ordered the mushroom and chive crepe torte harissa rubbed fresh fish (flounder), and the mascarpone cheesecake. All were paired with good wines. I savored every bite and didn't leave anything on my plate. My husband ordered the homemade Merguez sausage, red wine rested filet mignon, and the butterscotch creme brulee. SERVICE (5/5): Service is spot on at the Chef's Table. The servers are very knowledgeable about the food and drinks served at the restaurant. Our server was able to answer all of our questions and made recommendations. Our waters glasses, wine glasses, and bread plates were never empty. They didn't rush us to finish meals, and I appreciate that at a place like this. ATMOSPHERE (5/5): Very cozy and intimate, as I mentioned above. The Chef's Table is located right adjacent to the kitchen, but it is not very loud. They request that you turn your phones on silent. Perhaps this will be an annual spot for us to celebrate over good food at a locally-owned restaurant. In any event, I highly recommend that you give The Chef's Table a chance if you're looking to celebrate a special occasion or just have a nice dinner out. TIPS: - Reservations are highly recommended. read more

Note: this is for Tasting Room, Chef's Table is currently closed. Well, what a good first impression! For those folks that aren't gonna read all of this: It's great. Eat there again and again. The staff is friendly and attentive. Channon is a great server. Crystal was the cook tonight and she was a delight to meet. I was going to enjoy all three courses but I got full. Definitely try the soup. The ricotta and goat cheese ravioli was like nothing I'd every had. My main course was the Beef Wellington AND the grouper cheeks. All deeply satisfying. Definitely a strong first impression and should be considered one of the best in the area. read more

The Chef's Table at The Edgewater is a fantastic experience perfect for a date night or special occasion. We made a reservation a few days before we went via open table. We received confirmation texts and a text a few minutes before our reservation time alerting us that our table was ready. We were greeted and escorted to our table without a wait. We walked through the tasting room area, past a banquet room, and into The Chef's Table. There is a smaller room with 3 tables and a larger room with 6 tables. We were seated at a table for 2 in the larger room. It was perfect. There is a glass double door where you can see inside the kitchen. Our server greeted us promptly as we looked over the beverage and food menus. He was knowledgeable and engaging. It's a 3 course meal and you choose your appetizer, entree, and dessert from a few options in each category. We decided to add on the wine pairing and are glad we didn't order additional drinks because the wine was more than enough for both of us. You can add on the cheese sampler which we did. It consisted of crostini and 5 different cheeses with accompaniments. It included Gouda, Blue Cheese, Cheddar, candied pecans, dates, and honey. The honey and Gouda was a great combination and something I'd never think to try together. It was delicious and a great way to begin dinner. We opted to do a wine with our cheese tasting and omit the wine that would have been paired with dessert. We both enjoyed all three of the wine pairings. For our appetizers I had the Mediterranean Octopus. It was tender and the tzatziki sauce was delicious. My husband chose the Mushroom and Chive Crepe Torte that he enjoyed as well. I had the fresh fish for my main course. It was pastrami seasoned cod and prepared perfectly. The flavors of the dish were great and I really liked the asparagus and turnips. Yum. My husband had the pork ribeye. It was perfect ~ tender, rich, and flavorful. We chose the Lemon Thyme Creme Brûlée and the Bananas Foster Bread Pudding for desserts. Both were great choices and a perfect way to finish our meal. The entire experience was 2.5 hours and flew by. The service was great and the food was delicious. It was an enjoyable dinner and we're looking forward to trying The Tasting Room menu options sometime in the near future. We couldn't find much about the dress code online so we decided on casual and were glad we did. Be mindful that you're practically sitting in the kitchen and it gets hot while the entrees are cooking. read more

I had the best seat in the house, in front of the kitchen line. The chef and crew were grace under fire. Especially in these very challenging times. Take a challenging career and make it more difficult. To put out that much quality food and never, I can't say break a sweat, I've always had respect for chefs to stand in that heat and maintain cool and calm in the mist of insanity. He has a great team and it was a treat to watch. It takes a LOT to impress me. I've been a foodie for a long time and have eaten at some of the best restaurants and chef's in the country and many countries. I was impressed. Jeff & Ryan were phenomenal. Hands down best service I have had ever. Beautiful presentation of each dish. Every course, every wine pairing was spot on. I have not been surprised and pampered like that in a long time and for that I thank everyone The Chef's Table at Edgewater from the bottom of my very happy stomach It has raised the bar that every meal will be compared to this benchmark. I have always cringed when waiters were called "servers" I feel it always took away from the skill it takes to not only walk guests through a menu and meal but make it memorable. Jeff & ...... are definitely not servers and ever waiter takes away from their skills and ability. I believe gastronomic scientists would be much closer to match their level of expertise. Jeff and Ryan were flawless. If you don't make reservations at chef's table ASAP you are truly missing out on an amazing experience. Four courses, two hours of absolute gastrointestinal & visual bliss. read more

My partner and I made a reservation to eat here on New Year's Eve for their prefixed menu. The courses in the food were absolutely amazing. I'm going to let the pictures speak for themselves.

Been here three times and thoroughly enjoyed all visits! Only downfall is the price- it's a bit steep for the portion that you are getting. However, food is quite tasty and now they offer brunch!! Their duck fat fries are fantastic- this is one of the items that does come in big quantity. Def one of the plates that you need to split with 2 or 3 people. Butternut squash raviolis were fantastic- great flavor, but they are certainly tapa size. Their new brunch menu is really good for the price! Low country special is phenomenal! read more

05/08/2022 - Great Mothers Day meal at Chef's Table. Arrived a little early for the 1:30pm seating and walking through the Edgewater Hotel we asked a server about where to check in. Eric took the time to walk us to the reception desk and checked us in. We then waited at the outside tables while the prep was was being completed. We were seated and were pleased to find that Eric was also our server for the meal. He explained the menu and kept us updated on the pace of the entrees coming out. The three course Mother's Day meal was excellent in addition to the Mimosa and Bloody Mary specials. Definitely will bring ourselves and guests back in the future. read more

After searching for the perfect restaurant to celebrate our first wedding anniversary we decided on Chef's Table and we certainly were not disappointed. Our table alone felt so romantic in an intimate dimly lit room. Our waiter Steve was so delightful, he made our experience feel special and allowed us to really take our time and enjoy every moment of our dinner. Starting with the cocktails I ordered a Relapse which tasted like a Mai Tai and was presented in a cute tiki glass. My husband ordered the Spicy Pineapple and I've never seen him enjoy a drink so much! Once the food started coming out we were even more impressed. It was such a delicious meal, I would recommend the prix fixe menu to anyone looking for a special dinner out! read more

It was made with coconut water vodka which I thought was interesting. We got the pork belly and pimento cheese appetizers, and they were both delicious.

Our west Orlando friends took us to The Tasting Room in Winter Garden for brunch. We found it quite enjoyable! On Sunday, they had $3 mimosas and bloody mary's and we definitely took advantage of that. The ratio of champagne to OJ was a win! We shared some appetizers of fried chicken livers, duck fat fries, brussels sprouts, and pumpkin ravioli. One of my favorites were the duck fat fries - a generous portion sprinkled with parmesan cheese and served with aioli dipping sauce (had me doing the Homer Simpson mmmm...fries...). The roasted brussels sprouts included bacon which is always a plus in my book. The service was on point and he came by to check on us and refill drinks. They were accommodating to our friends who have a two year old and brought him a high chair. It was really dark in the restaurant so the atmosphere felt like more of a dinner spot. Now that I've had a "taste" of what it's like for brunch here, I'd like to come back for dinner. Bookmark added! read more

Came here for date night and had a very fine meal. The atmosphere, service, food was all very enjoyable. I made reservations and you better do the same. At 6:30 on a Sunday we arrived and were escorted to the back. Coming back through the wait areas to go to the bathroom made me think I should have been escorted as the typical staff could give a rip and "enjoyed" giving directions to the weird bathroom on the other side of the hotel lobby. Yeah someone should add signs from the restaurant as it's weird as it sounds. The waiter was great and did superb with the wine pairing. Don't ask him what he enjoys / recommends because we got a run down of the entire menu. Too many good choices became paralyzed with more good choices. Tried the Fois Gras because this home boy had never had it before. Ok, I'm clueless. No idea if it was great or not but I enjoyed it. My lame self kind of wanted to have a firmer cracker/toast/pairing as the textures all ran together, but again I'm a rube. Talking of which, maybe not as sweet a wine with it and more crisp. Trust someone more refined though. Had the Smoke Pork and LOVED it. Huge hunk of tasty meat. Beans were breathtaking and I usually don't eat a lot of greens but fell in love with the collard greens. What a new dimension to my life! The wine with it was perfect. Finished up with the bread pudding. I seriously enjoyed the two but the sherry with it was a bit much. Loved the wines but would have saved a ton and enjoyed it more to just order a bottle off the menu. Great place to enjoy a special treat though would love to try the normal dining to see if it was worth the difference. read more
