Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Winter Park

This was the perfect Christmas Eve experience for me and my daughter. Everything was amazing - the food (fresh, handmade pasta??? OMG!), the service (Jordy was truly a great server!!), and the ambiance was spot on. I can’t recommend this establishment enough!

We were made to wait quite a while to be seated and once we received the text to be seated we were made to stand at the hostess stand in the way of everyone for another 15 mins.

Thank you for a wonderful evening! Our family enjoyed your new space, was able to take our time and eat, drink and have a lovely conversation. Our waitress was phenomenal and I hope everyone treats her well this holiday season. Happy Holidays 🎄

Our server helped us navigate the new menu and with his help we ordered our go-to shared appetizer, Mixed Pakora, and Butter Chicken now under a new name, along with Garlic and Chili Naan. This has been our order for visits over the last five years. The pakora and butter chicken are consistently excellent, where as the naan is usually good and, less often, either excellent or poor. Though the naan was excellent on our last visit, tonight’s naan was merely good. I think that the difference in quality is determined by how recently it came out of the oven.

We haven’t been in a few years so we decided to stop in tonight. The food was amazing. The staff were amazing. They were friendly and helpful. The drinks were amazing. The atmosphere was nice. It was an overall good time. I remembered why we love Pepe’s Winter Park so much.
