This is one of the most dynamic places in Central Florida. I wish I could go more often. The staff is friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. The bartenders are entertaining. The owner(s) walk around and make everyone feel like the are part of the family. Definitely the "who's who" of Orlando. Our own "where everybody knows your name". Beautiful atmosphere and amazing food. Thank you for an enjoyable lunch for my team. We had a party of 7 today and it was perfect.
