    I always enjoy going to A La Cart. This location is the OG, so it's a bit smaller than the other locations but still features plenty of seating and good eats. They have their draft selection on a rotation so there's always something good to try. If you aren't sure, they also have flights. While I didn't come on an event night, I saw that they host movies and trivias and other fun events.

    I pass by this establishment almost every morning on my way to work, and did not know what it was until it popped up, I believe, in FB. I decided to check it out and loved it. So, there is the A La Cart building and its backyard is a cute little food truck area. They have a Brazilian food truck (Steak it Easy) which was delicious, pizza truck (Piacere - wood fired pizza), arepa truck (Wonder Arepa), Ceylon Hut food truck, Poke Kai food truck. Nice variety of foods to please everyone in your group.

    This would be a fun place in the winter and spring when the temperature is much milder. The indoor seating doesn't appear to have central air conditioning. They rely on a wall-mounted air conditioner that can't keep up or they open all the windows/doors and pray for a cross-breeze. When my friend and I arrived, the windows/doors were closed. It was a tad uncomfortable. They opened the windows/doors shortly after we sat down. We made the poor choice to sit in a corner seat that received no cross-breeze. When we got up to order another drink, we realized that table had no cross-breeze and sat in the middle at the high-tops instead. It was like night and day. Much more comfortable because you could actually feel the cross-breeze there. I can't imagine sitting outside on their lawn area or at the picnic tables outside as the shade is just not ample enough. The service is quick and very friendly. The drinks are great! We ordered the frozen seltzer slush as our second drinks and both really enjoyed the extra cold beverage since we were both sweating our butts off. It tasted like a piña colada and the bartender was kind enough to ask if we wanted it topped with a cherry. Heck yeah! Neither of us ordered food as we were just grabbing drinks, but the options looked promising. Cool concept, poorly executed. Not enough shade or shelter from the heat for us being in Florida. You need some shade sails and high velocity fans outside and a better indoor A/C system. The indoor chairs are those uncomfortable metal ones that don't make you want to stick around for long. I'd be hard-pressed to come back unless the temperatures were much milder. This is not an enjoyable spot to hang out at in the dead of summer.

    I absolutely loved this place! The beer selection is small though there is something for everyone. The variety of food trucks outside was surprising as well. I don't remember the names of the beers but they were IPA's and delicious. I did one hazy and one not, while others sipped on a tequila sunrise which she enjoyed. The kids ordered a cheese arepa with fries from Wonder Arepa and it was stuffed. The fries were perfectly golden! They also ordered the pistachio and chocolate pie from Piacere. It was also surprisingly delicious. We sat outside since it was a beautiful day. They have sufficient seating though I'm not a fan of plastic chairs but I get it, it's Florida. Everyone was attentive and friendly. Overall loved this place. I would go back for sure

    This is a very nice relaxing place if you want to get away from the crowd on the weekends. There's a craft brewery that has amazing IPAs and the lot is surrounded by local food trucks. Most of the food trucks take card and are self kiosk. There are plenty of seats to sit around and it's mostly outdoor. Get there early bc parking is limited! We ordered calamari at Barrio Espanol and tacos at 503 Latin Fusion. Food was on the pricey side but we were glad to know these are local vendors and we are here to support their business! Fair warning... lots of kids running around. I wish they had a designated area for them so they are not in danger of the drinking crowd. I was having a conversation and some kid ran into me, spilling my beer on the ground.

    I love this place. They have great beer and good food. Piacere pizza is my favorite from the current trucks. They use fresh ingredients and the sauce is made daily from scratch. I miss the stake Brazilian truck. The picanha steak was incredible, bring it back please. If you are looking for a place with great music and ambiance to share a good time with friends give a la cart a try!

    Super fun spot in the Milk District with drinks and food trucks. In my opinion, the best night to come by is Tuesday for trivia with Mike G! The staff is friendly and they have a great selection of rotating drafts as well as cans. As for the food trucks, my favorite is Ceylon Hut, but you can't really go wrong with Fly Guy Pizza. The food trucks aren't permanent but they change out very rarely (r.i.p. my sweet Korgette). It's great to sit outside under the umbrellas and enjoy a night out with friends, but if the weather is lousy there's seating inside too. If you can't decide between their selection of draft beers, they also offer flights!

    I know I know... it had been on my to try list for quite a while and I finally made it! I was looking for a sour and glad I stopped by to try one of the ones they carry. I will definitely come back to check their rotation.

    I will say I love their craft beer and drink selections here, I would say their downfall is their choice of food trucks. The space is unique and I love the concept however, parking can also be a challenge. I had a chicken sandwich from the food trucks and I will say it was probably the worst one I've ever had. Dry and flavorless, not to mention incredibly expensive. I usually love food trucks, but maybe just chose the wrong one here. More of a happy hour kind of place, go elsewhere for food.

    This was my first time at A La Cart and I truly enjoyed it! It was pretty busy but the 2 workers behind the counter kept the line moving. There were plenty of strategically placed seats which meant everyone had a place to sit with their group. A La Cart has a great selection of draft and canned craft beer. I tried the "Tripping Animals Tyrannosaurus" which is a fruity sour perfect for a summer evening (yes I realize it's winter but it's FL so it's fine lol). Will for sure be back to try some more of the sours! Fair warning that there is limited parking. However, after 4 you can park at the Einstein's Bagels which is a little less than a block away. The walk is short but not lit very well and takes you behind businesses, so I suggest the buddy system for safety. :)

    Beer and food truck place. They have a rotating food trucks. Just not sure how long they stay. Tried the Sri Lankan food.- Ceylon Hut- Ordered the appetizers.!it's an "empanada" with Indian flavors. A little spicy.

    Great place for a truck hoping experience! If anyone knows me, they know I love restaurant hoping! It's one of my favorite things to do. We ended up ordering from a few places here. Unfortunately I don't have the names for all the places we stopped at. But all the foods we tried were amazing! Different flavors of a veriaty of food is always fun when you are especially hungry. Those who we ordered from were very friendly! We didn't have to wait too long for our food. Although once we got the first of the foods we ordered we weren't considered about the timing doe the rest to come out. We were entertained enough lol! The aaambience was very chill. Not many people were there that day. But the ones that were there really looked like they were enjoying their food. It can be tough to decide on what to eat but when you're restaurant/truck hoping that makes it even more fun! Why not give restaurant or truck hoping a try. Who knows you might just be in the mood for a few things and can't decide on just one thing. You might actually enjoy trying a few things at a time. And the best part is you probably won't finish it all so you get to have the same foods the next day for lunch or dinner. Enjoy!!

    Been coming to A La Cart for a couple years now and I'm always impressed by the quality and variety of food being served! It's a great spot to bring family, friends, guests from out of town, whoever - lots of options so everyone should be happy, casual seating, and a bar with local beers on tap. I'm a big food truck fan so I love this concept especially since you can try a variety of excellent food without the crowds and chaos of the big food truck rallies.

    I've been to several Yard House locations over the years, and while every restaurant is a little…read moredifferent, the International Drive location in Orlando definitely stands out. I went with my brother and sister-in-law, and the food was excellent. The lemon pepper dry rub wings were absolutely amazing--crispy, flavorful, and seasoned perfectly. They were so good I jokingly wanted to bite my fingers afterward! I also tried the Honey Thai wings, but they just weren't for me because I don't really enjoy spicy food. That's completely a personal preference, though. The edamame was fresh and tasty, and the appetizers we shared were all very good. Even though the restaurant was completely packed, the service was impressive. I expected a long wait, but I was seated almost immediately, and our server kept everything moving smoothly despite how busy it was. The only downside is the parking. There isn't convenient parking directly in front of the restaurant, so you'll need to park in the nearby garage, take the elevator down, and walk over. The good news is that parking on the top floor is free. Along the walk, there were several outdoor vendors selling fresh fruit drinks, roasted corn, sweet treats, and small shopping items, which made the walk a little more enjoyable. Overall, this Yard House delivered great food, efficient service, and a fun atmosphere. If you're visiting International Drive and looking for a great place to eat, I definitely recommend stopping by. I'll absolutely be back!

    We had already eaten elsewhere and were simply looking for a place to relax, enjoy a few drinks,…read moreand have a conversation. There were several places to choose from, but this one seemed like a good fit because it wasn't overly loud, and we wanted to be able to hear each other. We initially sat outside, but we were told they had stopped serving the outdoor seating area, so we moved inside. Rather than wait for a server, we decided to order directly from the bar since it seemed like the faster option. There weren't enough seats at the bar for our group of five, so we grabbed a nearby booth. The bartender was friendly, and our drinks were excellent. Unfortunately, that's where the positive experience ended. Although people were not coming in, but some people were eating, and enjoying drinks throughout the restaurant, it seemed like the staff had started cleaning up for the night. A server came over, and we explained that we were only there for drinks. After we received our drinks from the bar, he returned and told us that we would soon have to get up so he could clean the table. Seriously? I looked around and saw several other tables where some guests were simply sitting, talking, and enjoying their drinks. They weren't eating either. It made us feel as though, because we had only ordered beverages, we weren't as welcome as everyone else. I chose not to let one person's behavior ruin our evening because I'd rather believe that one employee doesn't represent the entire establishment. In fact, the bartender was great, and the drinks were very well made. What disappointed me was the server's attitude. I wasn't aware that ordering drinks at a restaurant with a full bar wasn't enough to be considered a paying customer, especially when there weren't enough bar stools to accommodate our group. His approach came across as rude, unprofessional, and completely unnecessary. Needless to say, we were not going to get up until we had finished out drinks, and we did not. I may return to try the food because the drinks were impressive, but if I ever encounter that same server again, I definitely won't be sitting in his section.
