Their crepes are unlike anything else around! My go-to order is always the Fruit Deluxe. It is loaded with fresh fruit, and it's the perfect combination of light, soft, and slightly crispy. Every bite is delicious. A special shoutout to Vivan, who is always so kind and consistently makes the best crepes! I have also tried some of their bowls and drinks, and they have all been great, but the crepes are what keep me coming back. Seven years later, I am still ordering the same thing, which says a lot lol If it is your first visit, try a crepe, especially one of the fruit options (if you like fruits). You will not regret it!

That alone is enough reason to come back and give them a try.

They have a small food menu if you're peckish. The seating area is always clean and I like seeing all the flyers for local events and musicians. It makes this feel like a cool, authentic local place and not some sterile corporate chain. They've also added gachapon and claw machines so you can have a bit of fun with your boba!

Arguably the worst boba I've had in Orlando…read more The shop is nicely decorated, and the employee (or owner I wasn't sure) was very friendly. Unfortunately, the drinks just didn't live up to the experience. I ordered the taro milk tea and the strawberry milk tea. The taro tasted watered down, and the tapioca pearls weren't good. On top of that, tapioca costs extra, and an additional serving is another $2. The small cup also felt more like an extra-small. Overall, the shop has a nice atmosphere and friendly service, but the drinks were disappointing enough that I wouldn't return.

The whole…read morebuild-your-own bowl situation is pretty cool, especially if you're into gluten-free, organic, protein-maxxing type meals. I got the teriyaki chicken with brown rice, sweet potatoes, and the coconut sriracha sauce. Honestly, it was a balanced meal like nutrition wise and filled me up without putting me into a post-lunch coma. BUT My only strong beef is the flavor. Everything tasted mostly fresh, but I kept waiting for that "oh dang" moment and it never really showed up. It wasn't bad by any means--it just needed to lock in with the seasoning a little more. Overall, it's a respectable 3/5. If someone said "let's hit Fresh Kitchen," I'm not complaining. But if I'm the one choosing... there are a few places getting drafted before this one.

It's been a while since we've been here. I'm so glad we decided to come back. The rolls tasted…read moregreat. The menu included a large section of rolls to choose from. The cost is a bit high for some of their basic/standard rolls. For a family of 4, we spend over $100. They had a decent deal that we did where you can choose any 3 rolls + 2 soups for $40. This allowed us to enjoy the fancy type rolls. My son ordered the hibachi and enjoyed it. The waitress was attentive. We'll be back.

Ordering is now done on the app or through screens located at this "dojo" instead of directly with their "ninjas." Costs have gone up (but where hasn't it?) but portions are still good. It's a really cute concept with great decor and positive vibes. My food is always delicious and presented well. If you're looking to save a little, I suggest downloading the app for points you can put toward future purchases. Also, keep an eye out for specials.

Anytime I find myself on the east side of Orlando, I get SO excited because that means I can visit…read moremy favorite ramen stop - Soupa Saiyan! Located down the street from UCF, Soupa offers a wide selection of noodles, soups, and snacks that can only be described (by me) as delicious and comforting. They offer build your own bowl options for those who want ALL THE THINGS, but also have tasty pre-set meal options for those who do not have the energy to make the dreaded "what do we do for dinner" decision. I personally have loved everything I've eaten here. In addition to the great food, Soupa has so much character as a brand. As the name implies, Soupa Saiyan is a spoof on the famous Super Saiyans from Dragon Ball. The shop is covered in anime art and merch - you can have Goku stare you down while you eat! I always enjoy taking a look at the figure and art displays after my meal. Over the years, they have expanded their displays to include merch from One Piece, Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, and many other anime. This shop also features a beautiful mural of Dragon Ball heroes and villains. The mural also features Knightro, UCFs mascot and fearless knight. I am not sure when it happened, but on my most recent visit, I was sad to see the mural covered up by posters. I am not sure if this was a legal move, but I can only imagine that it was covered for a good reason. I hope I get to see the mural again. As always, the staff was very kind and made sure I had everything I wanted for my meal. The shop is small, so the service is always great. If you are a fan of Dragon Ball, or are a fan of big bowls of tasty noodles, I highly recommend that you make a trip to one of Soupa Saiyan's locations.They are all unique, but offer the same tasty meal experience.

As for the food, I wanted to like it more than I did. I think getting the pho or ramen is the way to go here, and I instead tried the sushi. The presentation of it was so nice and immaculate, but the rolls I got just really lacked in flavor. They were kind of "blah". The ramen is decent, and again I think that's what to try if you go here. Also the workers were so lovely that I really wish our experience with the food had been better. But if you're an anime fan you should probably add this to your list to check out.

How is this not the hottest spot in Orlando? I went an hour before closing, so I wasn't expecting…read moreanything super fresh, but everything tasted like they just hand made it. I had the teriyaki tofu which was perfectly coated in a light crispy shell, and the tofu was silky and melted in your mouth. The plate came out bubbling in a skillet. The ramen comes out in a massive cauldron! Also hot and ready. They have sriracha available if needed. The sushi was so fresh and flavorful. It was made by the sushi chef in house and visible to watch him make it. It was wrapped perfectly and everything came out fast. The portions were generous. The price is perfect for the proportion size and also the fact that everything tasted so good. Some dishes come with a side salad and miso as well. The waiter we had was apart of the family that owns the restaurant. I'm surprised it's a mom and pop place because it felt so rich and nice. This is my new go-to spot. Everyone you have to try it!

Visiting the area from out of state and found this place as the appeal was that it had some…read moresimilarities of our "go to" spot at home. Plus, the prices seemed to be fairly reasonable too. Only like 3 diners were there when we arrived (it was mid afternoon), so lots of open seating. We were able to sit at the bar. Greeted right way. Will say they have a very extensive menu. Decent selection of sushi & other types of dishes. Our server was pleasant. We started with their daily deal which was Crispy Tuna and edamame as well. Came out pretty quickly after we ordered. The Crispy Tuna was served not as we expected. It was more rice cakes (pancake style shape if you will) not what we are accustomed to which generally is a Square Musubi Press. They were good, but would have preferred them the way we generally order it. Edamame was tasty, but hard to mess that up. Rolls: they are pretty small to be honest and squeezed so tightly (with not enough of outer rice) they sat up high and didn't take on the plump desirable shape. When a sushi roll (maki) is rolled and pressed incorrectly with a bamboo mat, the cylindrical shape gets squished and inevitably turns into a aesthetic effect that looks off, which in my opinion shows here. Plus, very thinly sliced rolls. 4 rolls we ordered: Naruto Roll, it was refreshing & liked the cucumber in place of the seaweed wrap. Beauty & Beast Roll, came together well with the black tobiko & masago. Waterfall Roll was good, but would have liked some more heat (heaver on the jalapeños) and finally the Black Pearl Roll which was decent with the black tobiko on top! Throughout of dining experience the sushi chefs were preparing other dishes on the menu to fill orders, but also pleasant & engaging as we watched them make our orders and those others too. Leo and Micah were friendly, not so much the only female employee. She gave off some negative vibes. Never said a word to us & acted like we were not even there! Believe her role may have been in the kitchen, but she was out on the floor (for most of our time there) talking to Leo primarily. Kitchen cleanliness is key and by looking thru the open space (to the backs of sushi chefs) she really needed to focus more of her attention there instead of projecting conversations out front to the busy staff. Meaning that sanitation and environmental hygiene is a mandatory practice that needs constant attention & customers may observe or question those things when not tending to the task. I'm addressing this in the most important and nicest way possible! Everything we ordered was fresh and tasty. Not the best sushi restaurant we've been to, but definitely sufficed for our craving. Ended our meal with their fried ice cream which was delicious. Note- Do not believe they have any happy hour specials. No Kizami Wasabi available here. They feature a few lower costs options for lunch. Additionally, they have hibachi, teriyaki and ramen also!

My bestie and I made Wine 4 Oysters Bar and Bites our first stop for Magical Dining, and we were…read moreNOT disappointed! We made reservations, which required a $5 per person fee. We assumed that fee would be applied toward our bill. The restaurant itself is super cute, aesthetically pleasing, and has a great vibe. Our server never introduced herself, so unfortunately I didn't catch her name ‍. Thankfully, the food definitely made up for the lack of introduction! For Magical Dining, they offer a 3-course menu for $40. My bestie ordered: On Fire Oysters - 6 baked oysters with sriracha compound butter Shrimp Boil - extra jumbo shrimp, corn, potatoes, garlic butter & Old Bay Cheesecake I ordered: Oysters Rockefeller - 6 baked oysters with spinach, cheese blend, bacon & breadcrumbs Jambalaya - crawfish, shrimp, sausage, peppers & onions Cheesecake Everything we ordered was DELICIOUS! The oysters were flavorful, the jambalaya was packed with seafood, and the shrimp boil was seasoned just right. We both cleaned our plates! Overall, 10/10!

If it wasn't out of being petty, it was purely incompetence. The time before this, my girlfriend ordered tempura shrimp and checked under the breading and found poop veins all throughout the UNCLEANED shrimp. I'd avoid those.
