Made in Puerto Rico is a cool enough place close enough to Orlando International Airport…read more The food is good and the service was good, as well. It has a pleasant enough ambiance and since it is in a shopping plaza, parking should not be an issue. The trifongo is the house specialty and it was good. If you are close to the Orlando Airport, this is a good spot to stop by.

We decided to try Made in Puerto Rico and unfortunately left disappointed. I ordered the Ropa Vieja…read morewith white rice and black beans. The rice and beans were tasty, but the meat was extremely salty and so tough it felt like I was chewing gum. My wife had the Bistec Encebollado, which was paper-thin, had a slight fishy smell, and was very chewy -- almost like leather. For the price we paid, we expected much better quality. Honestly, we could've had a more enjoyable meal at a casual spot like Ale House or even a decent fast-food place. The biggest issue, though, was the music -- it was so loud that having a conversation was almost impossible. It took away from the entire dining experience. Overall, the food quality and atmosphere didn't live up to expectations. I really hope the management takes note and considers making improvements.

Had a nice time with the family at Cilantros. Favorite item on the menu were the tostones and…read moregarlic + chicken appetizer--- sooo savory! For entre got the carne guisada which is kind of like stewed Angus beef with carrots and potatoes. Our side of Maduros was unfortunately all dried out and definitely not a freshly cooked item which left us underwhelmed. Prices are fair and overall service was pretty good but for some things the servers are a bit absent minded so you have to be on top of them. We would certainly come back and try it again.

The drinks were fantastic and came out almost immediately. Then the food came and let me tell you not one single bite disappointed. Everything was hit, fresh and tasked phenomenal. I don't believe one of us had a single bite of food left. The atmosphere was great, too. Everyone was just having an amazing time together. Felt like we were at home. Absolutely check this place out!!!

I stopped for dinner during the week. I had no reservations. There was no wait. I was seated right…read moreaway. I started with a Mijito. It was delicious. I then tried the Churrasco Mofongo. The whole dish was delicious. That chimichurri sauce was out of this world. It just completed the dish to perfection. My waitress, Samarie, was polite and very attentive. She took my order promptly. My food was out in no time. The restaurant is located in a small plaza. Parking might be limited around dinner time. I was there a little earlier so I had no problem parking.

We first found Crocante at the Winter Park Farmers Market and tried their pork porchetta sandwich,…read morewhich was amazing. Once we found out they had a restaurant, we knew we had to check it out. The restaurant itself is beautiful inside with great vibes and a nice atmosphere. Our first visit was mostly good, but I would not recommend the tripleta. All you taste is the burnt tortilla, and it wasn't like a typical tripleta sandwich. The second time we went was for a graduation celebration, and sadly most of the food was a miss. The grilled chicken and sauces were especially disappointing--expensive, bland, and not something I'd order again. The drinks were also disappointing and tasted more like sugary syrup than actual cocktails or fresh drinks. We chalked it up to maybe being an off day. That being said, we also ordered catering for the graduation before the unfortunate dinner, and the catering was amazing. We ordered pernil, leg porchetta, arroz con gandules, and roasted whole chicken. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and well done with no complaints at all. I just wish the dine-in experience matched the catering and food truck experience better. Overall, I would still recommend Crocante because when they're good, they're really good. The service was okay, nothing special, but not bad either. The space is beautiful, the vibes are great, and some items are definitely worth trying.

A disaster. Not Recommended for Large Groups…read more We made a reservation for 15 people and called ahead. They asked for a $10 per person deposit ($150 total), which we paid without complaint. My wife even got the name of the person who took the reservation--Josymar--who was actually really nice on the phone. Too bad that was the last nice thing about this experience. When we showed up, the greeter acted like they had no idea about any reservation. No tables were ready, and the whole vibe was "ugh, a big group." You could just feel the annoyance rolling off them. Our server, Stephanie, was an absolute mess. She was scattered, had this bar-attitude energy, and seemed completely uninformed. Here's just one example: we ordered appetizers that took forever to come out. When they finally arrived, one was missing. By the time the main dishes started showing up, we told her to cancel the empanadas. Her response? "Sorry, I can't cancel them now--the kitchen might already be working on them." Really? We had to push back and told her we were not going to eat it. We also ordered the Mofongo with Churrasco and specifically asked for the garlic sauce on the side (which, by the way, doesn't even taste like garlic). She flat-out refused and said the sauce had to come on top. No flexibility whatsoever. Pretty much everything came out cold--appetizers, sushi, you name it. We constantly had to chase her down for drink refills. Eventually we'd had enough and asked for the manager. Amanda came over and was polite, but she basically defended all the screw-ups. The only person who actually helped us was José, a server in training who wasn't even assigned to our table. He went out of his way to bring food and drinks while everyone else seemed checked out. The appetizers were a total rip-off too. They push an "upgrade" to add pork chunks, but it's really just fatty, chewy bits that were cold and unappetizing. Oh, and they only allow 3 checks for the whole group, with just one server for 15 people. Of course they add the automatic 20% gratuity for big parties--so why bother trying when the money's already guaranteed? This was hands-down the worst service we've had in years. Complete disaster. Save yourself the headache and go somewhere else if you've got more than a few people.
