Bongos Restaurant Bar in Poinciana is a true hidden gem! We tried the lomo saltado, lomo with causa, pulpo parrillero, and ceviche Bongo, and every dish was absolutely amazing. The flavors were rich and authentic, making it one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time. The food was so delicious that I can't recommend this place enough. If you're looking for fantastic cuisine in Poinciana, Bongos is a must-visit!

Amazing quaint little restaurant which is central to everything this place serves the best tiger milk which is the liquid from the ceviche! All that goodness is made for a hangover! It's also called come to life! Their ceviche and cultural Peruvian food is amazing their ceviche and other plates is also amazing here are a few dishes that we ordered! The service is amazing!!! The bartender is very personable and makes suggestions according to their menu items!!! This place is a must see

Wow! We are in Orlando area for a professional Motorsport event. My husband and I were looking for somewhere upscale yet casual and this hit every mark. We travel all over the US and I can say this was a wonderful experience and treat. From the cocktails, appetizer, entree and dessert - everything was more than I hoped with a great price point to match. Please try this local treasure! We had wonderful service and food and I hope to visit again when we are back in town!

Mofongo con camarones was delicious!! A bit pricey here, though their lunch specials seem to be a good deal.

I have found my new, go-to lounge in Orlando. I went on a Thursday night and missed the live music,…read morebut the vibes were still Viking. I was sexy in every way, from the decor to the glassware, to the cigar corner. Every inch of the place was a vibe. Go see Manny, the bartender. His service was unmatched. He made me a Coconut Passionfruit Margarita with a Tajin rim. When I tell you that's THE BEST margarita I've ever had, I mean it. The waitress took one of our party's order wrong and he personally came over, made it right, and was our best friend the rest of the night. We got a yummy charcuterie board to soak up some of the alcohol. Highly recommend that too. The last thing I'll say is that even though we missed the live music, they were still playing the artist's music over the speakers. It's great to see them continue to support local talent because I immediately looked up the person and downloaded their music all because the establishment didn't stop supporting him after he stopped singing. It shows how deep they want to grow roots in the community. Love it and I'm absolutely going back.

Looking at the menu I was bit surprised they did not have more signature drinks on the menu, mainly mojitos, but then realized this is a Latin speakeasy, with music playing to match. Once I had my coconut mojito I was very pleased. They really do know how to make them. They also have a full bar so anything you want they can make, The bartender and servers were super nice and friendly, and they worked quick to get all drinks out. They also had some food, that looked delicious, and hope I get the chance to come back to try some. After seating in the lounge/ speakeasy area for a while, we moved to the bar for a last drink. The bartender said Espresso Martinis were her specialty so we order those. She was not lying, one of the best we've had.

As you enter the hotel, the bar is to your right and as you walk down the hallway, you turn to the left by the staircase, and you are there. It's a nice, small bar with additional tables and chairs on the balcony. On the Sunday evening that we went, there was no waitress to take your order. You selected the menu from the bar area and then placed your order with the bartender. We ordered the Askur Gimlet ($19.50) and the Sparkling Hibiscus ($18.50) cocktails. My friend enjoyed her gimlet, and my hibiscus drink was nice, but a little sweet for me. The hibiscus flower in the glass was edible, which was cool to experience. Overall, nice place for a cocktail, but the prices are high and the drinks were not that strong. I know this is a Disney resort and you pay extra for the environment, but I expected a little more for $20+ drinks (with tax and tip) and minimal service. However, it's a quaint spot to stop in for the experience.

My group and I enjoyed a couple pre-dinner drinks here and it was a nice escape from the heat and hustle. Only thing is that there was only one person working when we were there and getting a drink took a few minutes.

They also have a staple menu if you are more of a "creature of habit" and like your tried-and-true favorites. Their food menu is not GRAND, but it does pack a nice punch if you are looking for a quick nibble to accompany your cocktail - which is REALLY the star of the show. Since the cocktail is one of the main highlights of the experience, the TRUE STARS are the bartenders who pour (literally and figuratively) their heart and soul into curating the bar menus to WOW your senses. Some of my favorite seasonal cocktail experiences are EASILY had at The Courtesy. And what really makes it a GEM is how much CARE is put into the details, not only into the menu, but also into the decor of the space. They know how to draw you in and keep you in. For as long as they are here, I'll be a regular here.

Bonus points if score a reservation and show up to Nightmare on Orange or their Holiday event each where the bar area and inside is decorated to fit the theme and the menu will turn that way as well. The bartenders here are fun to chat with and provide plenty of information and answer any questions. I was lucky enough to enjoy some hot tea (not on menu) while sampling cocktails and enjoying the Trio of mini burgers.

Fantastic Food, Great Vibes, and an Experience Worth Repeating!…read more Susuru did not disappoint! From the flavorful food to the cool, laid-back atmosphere, everything about this experience was excellent. The food was absolutely delicious, packed with flavor, and clearly prepared with care. Every bite was a treat! The atmosphere was just as impressive, relaxed, inviting, and full of personality. It's the perfect spot to unwind, enjoy great food, and soak up some good vibes without feeling rushed. Overall, Susuru delivered the perfect combination of amazing food and a great atmosphere. Definitely a place worth visiting again and again! I'm already looking forward to my next visit. Highly recommend!

I stopped by Susuru for a solo dinner and grabbed a seat at the bar. The restaurant was fairly…read morebusy, but I was seated in under 15 minutes. Service was great throughout my visit, and the staff were attentive. The Susuru Gohan was fantastic and definitely my favorite dish of the night. It comes with a soy-cured organic raw egg yolk, sweet aged soy, onion, Japanese seasoning, and steamed rice. I added both uni and ikura, and everything paired really well together. I would absolutely order this again! Their drinks and cocktail menu is very extensive and I chose the Ultraman drink, which was great. It's made with Haku vodka, lime juice, cinnamon chai syrup, grenadine, cran-apple, and ginger beer, topped with a dehydrated apple and normally a limited mini Ultraman toy. They were out of the toy when I went, so they offered a $2 discount, which I didn't mind at all. For yakitori, I tried the Hiza Nankotsu (knee cartilage). Their skewers are prepared in-house and grilled over Japanese binchōtan charcoal, then finished with aged tare and served with Susuru citrus salt. The knee cartilage was good and had a nice crunchy texture. I also tried the Mi-So-Hot ramen which comes with pork chashu, a shoyu soft-boiled egg, corn, scallions, chili hair, and spicy miso broth. It was just okay for me. There wasn't anything particularly wrong with it, but nothing really stood out either. With so many other options on the menu, I probably wouldn't order it again. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience at Susuru! The attentive service made solo dining at the bar comfortable, and the Susuru Gohan was easily the highlight of my meal. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

It's a bit confusing because you have to walk past the bar area (with two pool tables) towards the back to find the host stand. While making my reservation, I opted for the semi-private dining room and we had almost the entire area to ourselves and were seated in an oversized comfy booth. Our server was very nice and made great recommendations. The food came out in a timely manner, was well presented, decent portions, and tasted great. We especially loved the Caesar tartare, lamb shank, apple pie, and cookies. The cookies were especially unique and they also added decorative chocolates to both with celebratory messages based on our reservation. No notes, we will be back!
