The best of the best. The cooperstown of tiki bars in Orlando. There is none better. There is none…read morehigher. If you do not know what tiki culture is, then you need to plant your booty on an Lyft and get yourself over here. The bartenders are the maestros. You can try to have a conversation but you gotta let them cook. They're the closest you'll ever get to Walter White. They call me Heisenberg...

Aku Aku was exactly the kind of tiki bar I was hoping for -- super casual, laid-back, and…read morecompletely unpretentious. There were multiple dogs just hanging out at the bar, the cocktails were strong without being ridiculously overpriced, and the whole place had a genuinely friendly vibe. Service was relaxed, personable, and felt authentic instead of overly polished. Really loved the old-school tiki bar atmosphere here. Definitely one of the more genuine spots I've been to in Orlando.

So I am slightly confused. I already did a review for Port 27, I guess this is a new page. To be…read moreclear, Port 27 is a venue which has a brewery with its namesake Port 27. There in lies some of the confusion on my part because my last review I guess was for the brewery and not the venue, but I kinda reviewed it in its entirety. So here I go again. Port 27 is a lakeside destination with iconic views, good eats, a great brewery and eclectic shops. I have been here more times than I can count. It is quite convenient as it is less than a 5 minute drive from my house. And the bike ride isn't bad either on a Sunday when it's not too hot. So I have been here in the evening on the weekend with live music. They host events like runs, and there is even a comedy show. Port 27 is both kid friendly, and pet friendly. There are plenty of places to sit and there is a kind of kids area as well. Most of the major events are hosted on the outside stage. The shops: Antica Trattoria has some of the best pizza in Florida. It is popular and stays packed, yet they get the pizza out pretty quickly. There is a fair amount of seating inside. And, there are places throughout Port 27 to leave your pizza boxes when you are done. Van de Walle has great coffee and awesome desserts and the staff and service are on par with the coffee and desserts. They roast their own beans in house and make all of the desserts in house. You can purchase their coffee and theybwill grind it for you to your preference. Port 27 the brewery is a bit cloistered and on a busy evening or the weekends, the lines can be a little much. But the wait is well worth it because the beer is quite awesome. The servers are passionate about the beer and you can get samples, but when it is super busy you should just jump in to respect the patrons behind you. There are also burgers, tacos, ice cream, arts and crafts, candles and a shop that has vinyl records. Every time I go it is always a new adventure and somehow I never get bored. If you are in Polk County Florida and looking for something to occupy the whole family, Port 27 is a great option. But don't take my word, see it for yourself.

This is a great place to spend some time with the family. It has a large parking lot, but close to…read moresunset that parking lot is full.

So I went to Tanners with the family and it could have been much better! If you see the picture of…read moremy drink, you would say yikes! Food- I ordered the Tanners French dip and it was really bland. I don't even think they gave me the French dip, I don't get any auju? I probably ended up getting the Philly cheesesteak. The meat and cheese felt so stale on my taste buds and the fries looked very unappetizing. I ordered a fountain drink but ended up with something in my drink? Was it gum? Was it styrofoam? Who knows but I ordered a new drink. Service- It took an hour to get a seat, it was busy so I understand but at the same time when we got seated, it took 45 minutes to get our drinks and food ordered. Ambiance- very crowded but nice sweet view of the lake :)

Super cute spot that seems to be a hidden gem on Lake Minneola!…read more Once we got there, there were no tables available, but a server greeted us and sat us pretty quickly. We opted for the alcoholic drinks, but if I came again, I'd opt for the mocktails, as both we ordered were crazy light pours. The food was pretty good. The highlights for me were the fries, onion rings, and the jalapeño ranch, which I suspect is housemade. The burgers were decent, but mine came out pretty much well done, when I ordered medium rare. Took the key lime pie to go, and it was good! Overall, worth a visit. They certainly have a great location.

This place is hidden local gem that everyone needs to come out and visit sometime, especially…read morebefore sunset. When you arrive the parking lot connects to a walkway that is lined with tiki torches they light up after the sun goes down leading you to the bar area and then the restaurants tables on the docks. The open facing lake view is absolutely gorgeous, when you get to the restaurant area you can pick any open table and a server meets you promptly. They have everything from fresh seafood, delicious burgers, and crisp fried side options like tater tots, onion rings, and of course French fries. We ordered their Mushroom, Onion and Swiss Cheeseburger and the Smokin' Jalapeno Burger! Both were solid burgers with 1/2 lb angus beef thick patty and great flavor combinations. Ordered some drinks from the bar that were refreshing and for dessert we split the Key Lime pie that is a MUST order (sorry not sorry Publix)! For amazing views, great food, and relaxing vibes, I highly recommend making your way out here soon! We will be back to try out some of their seafood and specials very soon!

What a DOPE, PIRATE THEMED, speakeasy to go to grab some delicious drinks! Totally blown away!…read more Tucked, downtown Tampa you enter through a secret bookcase door and you enter a very low key pirate bar! Lighting is dim, which is part of the concept. (Auto flash is needed for pics) The joint, is VERY CLEAN! The staff is awesome and very attentive! They understand process. The drinks are SOOO WELL MADE! I had a Zombie as my first drink, and it is very well presented and STRONG! I prefer,my first drink at an establishment to be strong cause then I can lighten it up later. Then I had a Rum Barrel, not as strong, but well presented and delicious! Note: Prices for drinks are worth every dime! They have a small food menu, but everything on the menu looked delicious, but I did not eat there. This speakeasy is attached to a British pub which I went for food after. (Review to come) All-in-all great spot to come and have a drink you are well treated, appreciated and just a fun experience! I will DEFINITELY come back here for a delicious drink and DEFINITELY will try something off the food menu. I'll just make sure next time I won't go there after a big breakfast lol! Five stars alllllll day long!!!
