Everything has gone downhill over the last 6 years since our previous visit. We ordered the…read moreCrawfish Mac & Cheese as an appetizer. We did not like it at all, we told our server (Sophia) and explained we didn't like the flavor, the Crawfish was overcooked and rubbery, and the disu was cold. Sophia offered to bring us somewhere else, we declined stating we would have plenty once our entrees arrived. What I was not aware of until we got the bill, was that she did not make it right. She should have taken it off the bill considering only 1 bite was eaten. Main courses, Shrimp Etouffee for my husband and Shrimp and Grits with Debris Gravy for me. The Etouffee was very soupy. It had to be eaten with a spoon. I tasted it and all I could taste was tomato sauce and stewed Tomatoes. He said it was ok, but was obvious no one ever tasted ot while cooking. Any chef will tell you constantly taste as you cook. My Shrimp & Grits was wonderful as usual.

We dined at The Ravenous Pig again on our most recent trip to Orlando, and I'm happy to report it's…read morestill every bit as incredible as it was when we first stumbled upon it in 2024. The steak frites are just as magnificent as my boyfriend and I remembered. Have you ever had a food memory? Years ago, my dad made the best steak I've ever had. He passed away when I was a kid, and two summers ago, when I took my first bite of the steak here, my mouth watered... but so did my eyes. It was one of the strangest, most beautiful experiences I've ever had at a restaurant. For a moment, it felt like Dad was sitting at the table with us. To taste something so familiar, something I hadn't experienced in over twenty years, was surreal. That's not a compliment I hand out lightly. So we each had that For this visit, we started with the rock shrimp tacos, and they absolutely did not disappoint. They packed a nice little kick without overwhelming the dish, and we practically inhaled them. Of course, we had to finish the meal the same way we did last time: with churros. Somehow they were even better than we remembered. Crispy, warm, perfectly sweet, exactly the kind of dessert that makes you argue over who gets the last bite. My boyfriend ordered two Old Fashioneds, and I had two Cosmos. Both were delicious and definitely generous on the pour. I was a little concerned when we arrived for our 8:00 p.m. reservation because the place was PACKED for a Thursday night. We ended up waiting a bit past our reservation time. The hostess suggested we grab a drink at the bar, but that area was just as crowded, so we hung out in the lobby instead. The wait ended up being completely worth it because we were seated at the exact table I was secretly hoping for: the most perfect little corner window booth, straight out of a movie scene. It was the ideal setting for our last night of vacation. And then there was our server, Anton. Anton could teach a master class on waiting tables. He was efficient, funny, attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without being pretentious, and genuinely seemed to enjoy what he was doing. In a world where great service sometimes feels like a lost art, Anton was an absolute delight. The Ravenous Pig delivered once again: phenomenal food, excellent cocktails, memorable service, and one of those meals you'll still be talking about long after you've gone home. We can't wait for our next trip to Orlando and our next visit back.

The snapper collar tacos were the star of the show. Easily enough to share between two people, with fresh fish and really good homemade corn tortillas. The fish of the day was also excellent and the fresh ciabatta with garlic butter was hard to stop eating. The cauliflower appetizer missed the mark a bit for me, the pieces were a little too big and came out slightly undercooked. The chicken salad was just alright, nothing bad but nothing memorable either. Parking can be a little tough in the area, but the complimentary valet makes it much easier. I love that they have a quicker option out back with the beer garden, you can't go wrong!

As a waitress next time, you should ask the customer if they would like change or not just don't assume

But I had an urge to find some fried chicken that is lightly battered and this place hit the spot. Located just off of Park Avenue and Fairbanks is The Hen & Hog. Got a 6 piece fried chicken anf a few sides which consisted of mac and cheese, fries and a pickled slaw. Juicy freshly fried and ever so gently battered chicken that was crisp with every bite. Definitely some tasty chicken. I really liked the slaw that had garlic onions celery and some other items but it cut through the savoriness of the chicken. Yes, i ate all of it to the bone. Wife also got chicken and waffles which she thoroughly enjoyed. Also had fried banana peppers with a pimento spread. Pretty nice combination. Staff was super helpful. They also have wings with a lot of great sauces to try. That will be my order for next time. Cant wait to come back.

The inside of the restaurant was cute. I really enjoyed the live stream of the cows grazing in the fields. The rustic vibe fit the brand great. It only took a short while to get our food. My cuban was great. The bread was nicely toasted. The meat was extremely juicy on the sandwich. My friend enjoyed the taste of her burger. We both thought the fries had nice crispiness. There were several families enjoying lunch inside while we were in here. I saw they had a brunch menu and think in my next visit I want to experience the chicken and waffles I keep hearing about.

Many of the highly-reviewed sandwiches (like the Cuban and pastrami) are no longer available, so it's good to know the options are now more focused. The service was quick and friendly, and parking was easy. We both ordered the OK Onion Smashburger--a nice-sized burger with a great char, double patties, griddled onions, American cheese, garlic dill pickles, and comeback sauce. It hit the spot!

It took 30 min for our food to come out (which would be fine if we knew but I thought it was fast casual). That said, all the food was served nice and hot. When his Plain Jane came out it was missing the coleslaw. My mom's brisket sandwich had a very burnt end. My pulled pork was good but having a warm salad was strange to me. But most of all, I didn't like the staff wearing the same gloves to buss tables, serve food and roll silverware. Yuck. We did enjoy the street corn and fortune cookie. It's nice that it is dog friendly.

They sent me an offer for a free biscuit sandwich for my birthday! Perfect timing since I was at the office that day! I walked in and asked the guy at the counter for recommendations since it was my first time. He took his time to help me decide, and I went with the Southern style. He was genuinely great and super helpful...kudos to him! He mentioned everything is made fresh, so it would take a few minutes. I waited patiently. The location is small, tucked among other restaurants and shops in Winter Park. It was very clean and well-maintained inside. I took my order back to the office (only about 10 minutes away). When I opened the bag... surprise! I was expecting a normal-sized biscuit, but this thing was twice as big as I thought. The chicken was super crispy, flavorful, and that melted pimento cheese was fire! It was seriously delicious and very filling. I'll definitely be back soon to try another biscuit...maybe something more traditional next time to compare. My experience was excellent overall, but I have to dock one point for no indoor seating. I know the space is tiny, but adding a small counter with a couple of high chairs against the window would be awesome. Just my two cents!

Would I bring a date here? YES!!!!…read more The Pinery understood the assignment. Great atmosphere, great food, and an awesome staff made this a perfect date-night spot. The season watermelon cocktail was so refreshing and lite and packed full of flavor. The shrimp & grits were the standout--rich, flavorful, and definitely something I'd order again. The dip with toasted bread was perfect for sharing, the cocktails were creative, and the key lime pie was a smooth finish to the night. But the service really elevated the experience. Marco (aka "Tequila Time" ) was awesome, and honestly, the entire staff was amazing--welcoming, attentive, and made us feel taken care of from beginning to end. Food: 9/10 Cocktails: 9/10 Service: 10/10 Date Night: 9.5/10 Would I come back? Absolutely. The Pinery officially makes my Orlando date-night rotation.

We stopped by The Pinery for happy hour and left with mixed feelings. If you're looking for wine,…read morebeer, cocktails, or simple mixed drinks, happy hour is worth checking out. However, I was surprised that the bar bites and appetizers were still fairly expensive, so the food specials didn't feel like much of a bargain. We started with the coconut shrimp, the short rib tacos, and the bread service, and all three were fantastic. The coconut shrimp was crispy and flavorful, the short rib tacos were packed with flavor, and the bread service was the perfect way to start the meal. Everything was off to such a great start that we had high expectations for our entrée. Unfortunately, the chicken-fried steak (which is actually made with beef despite the confusing name) was a huge disappointment. The meat was incredibly tough, to the point that it was difficult to chew, while the breading ended up being the most flavorful part of the dish. The broccoli tasted like plain steamed broccoli without any seasoning, and the mashed potatoes were just average and didn't add much to the plate. The entrée was disappointing enough that we asked for it to be taken back and chose not to have it remade. What made the experience more frustrating was how it was handled. Neither the owner nor a manager came by to ask what went wrong or gather any feedback. We were also offered dessert in a way that made it sound complimentary, but it ended up being added to our bill, which was confusing. One other thing that stood out was seeing the owner speak rather sharply to an employee over a white towel hanging from his pocket. It may have been a minor issue, but it could have been addressed more privately. On the other hand, every other staff member we interacted with was friendly, attentive, and happy to answer questions or offer recommendations. The restaurant itself has a beautiful atmosphere and is definitely a nice spot for a date night. I can absolutely recommend stopping by for drinks and appetizers, especially during happy hour. Unfortunately, the entrée and the way the situation was handled kept the experience from living up to the expectations set by such a strong start. While I'm glad we gave it a try, I don't see myself returning.
