    The ambiance was magical with colorful umbrellas in the outside plus the inside is beautiful The staff was incredibly attentive and made us feel right at home. And oh, the menu! So many food options, but we couldn't resist to get some coffee , hot chocolate , and refreshing mocktail

    Broccoli and bacon baked potato
    Linda M.

    Cute little cafe with a lot of potential. The food was disappointing. Service was slow. There were three of us and the food all came out at different times. Menu was out of date and waitress waited until we ordered to let us know the prices would be higher. Plus there was a local service fee we were not told about in advance.

    Grilled cheese sandwich
    Karen V.

    First time trying this restaurant. We were a party of 3 for lunch. The good: decorated really cute, and really good air conditioning. The bad: after ordering, our server told us that the menus were out of date and the prices had gone up. She was unable to tell us which items had gone up and by how much. I ordered a grilled cheese and my companions ordered a baked potato and a pita pizza. We all ordered specialty teas. Within 5 minutes all drinks were delivered, along with our friend's baked potato. We thought the rest of the food would be coming shortly, but no. After 15 minutes of staring at my friend's potato, my grilled cheese came out, then a server tried to bring us meals which were not ours. After 5 more minutes, the pizza was delivered. Now the baked potato is beyond cold and I really don't know why they delivered it with the drinks, as if it were an appetizer. I really didn't think anyone could get a grilled cheese wrong but this place did. A slice of semi-melted American cheese on a huge soft bun. Grilled cheese on a bun! To make it worse the bun was doughy and yeasty tasting. The hibiscus tea I ordered was so sweet my teeth hurt. I had to ask for a cup of ice to water it down. When we were ready to pay, the server came over with her little machine and started telling us the total. I said that I needed to see an itemized receipt as she had told us that the prices had gone up. The receipt included a service charge of 5% (that wasn't on the menu and that I wouldn't have known about if I had not asked for an itemized receipt. When questioned the server said it was a downtown fee and that all the restaurants downtown charge it. We ate downtown last week and there was no such fee. In summary, it was disappointing food, confusing prices and poor service. I would not recommend

    Spaniard Hot Chocolate...YUM!
    Vannessa W.

    I recently visited Carinos Cafe and had a good experience overall -- the staff was friendly and attentive, the prices were reasonable, the decor was super cute, and the Spaniard Hot Chocolate is delectable!

    Factura con los precios sorpresa! $1 más por cada café !
    Jailene B.

    CUIDADO CON LOS PRECIOS! Fui muy contenta a probar el café. Me cobraron precios diferentes a la hora de pagar. Los precios en el menú son menos. Yo pedí 2 Ice Coffees 16oz que claramente en el menú son $4.95 luego al pagar me los cobraron a $5.95 cada uno. Cuando le hice el reclamo el muchacho a cargo me dijo que los precios cambiaron y no aparecen en el menú que está disponible, solo en su sistema. Luego la muchacha que me cobró me dijo que se disculpaba por no advertirme antes sobre la diferencia en precios, esperando que yo estuviera conforme con simplemente una explicación. Muy conveniente para ellos verdad? Al pedirles que arreglaran su error se tomaron su BUENNNN tiempo para la devolución de la diferencia. Esta era mi primera vez y claramente mi última. A mi esposo le hicieron exactamente lo mismo días antes y no lo sabía. VERIFIQUEN BIEN SU RECIBO.

    The worst customer service I've experienced in some time. Out of the six servers only one could communicate with us. He was the only one that spoke English. After our food was served no one came to check in with us. I called out for one of them to come over because we needed napkins. Before he came over he turned back to see if someone else could help us. When he saw that there was no one, he came to help. That was it. For the rest of our stay no one else came over to ask if we needed anything or how was everything. Nothing! On the brighter side, the food was tasty and the latte was delicious. It's a great place to sit and chill over coffee or one of their many alcoholic beverages. The ascetics are beautiful. It's a great place to capture pictures for Yelp or The Gram.

    French toast sticks
    Kaylynn A.

    I always like to start off with the good. The cafe was really pretty and decorated nicely. I loved the vibes and the Puerto Rico feeling. The frappe was also really good! Now to start off with the food, I only liked the toast. Me and my husband were not fans of the food at all. The eggs texture was really soft and felt weird to us. The French toast sticks tasted like the ones we buy at the freezer section at Walmart for our kids. The bacon tasted ok , tater tots were fine but also tasted as if we could just toss them in our air fryer. The prices weren't all that great. The service was definitely mid, they took forever to come to the table for our order when the cafe was empty and they didn't even really check back on us. Wouldn't be coming back

    Large latte
    Andrea P.

    Despite the bad reviews, I'm actually leaving a good review considering the food I purchased. I had a large hot latte and my hubby had a large cappuccino and they were honestly pretty good. As a coffee lover, I cannot complain. My hubby also had a breakfast croissant with egg, cheese and bacon and it was actually good as well. The ambience of the place is nice. They have outside seating which makes you feel a little bit like if you were in San Juan, PR and inside, it's more of a vintage look with good music playing: Frank Sinatra. Overall, good place to have coffee and croissant.

    We rode our bikes there to see the area and have some coffee. The service was very good and the server super attentive. We will be back to try the food!

    Balcony view of Cariños!!
    Jan C.

    This local spot has too much local competition. With this said. Cariños it's trying to be on its own beat. Making things their way. It's refreshing. Still room for growth it's definitely present. We came in on a Saturday night, while the other local spots were surplus, Cariños was decently occupied. Live music and singing show. This was the highlight of the night. The reason I just bumped this review from one to two stars. Ordered drinks. The food does not look appealing or appetizing. But they had so many options on the menu. Would love to see more items before ordering. Maybe a photo session of all your dishes? Either who. The prices are in high class of their own as well. Imported Bottle beer running 6$. On the high end. Cuba libre was made nicely. Can't knock it out until I see more. I hope the owners or management can take the constructive criticism and use it toward their own benefit. There is so much potential in this location. Jan C.

    In the heart of Downtown Kissimmee, this place opened up about 2 months ago, and I love it! The customer service is great; everyone is super friendly, especially Joyce, which is very knowledgeable about the place. Whether you're in the mood for coffee, boba tea, a quick bite, dessert, or for breakfast, sit down & relax inside or in their outdoor patio; this is the place to go. OPEN ON SUNDAYS!!!! Live Music Fridays & Saturdays after 6 pm. Sundays they will start playing music from 2 pm to 5 pm. Check their Instagram for select dates. New personal favorite!

    Bill , menu and note of price change

    The prices on the menu are much lower than what they actually charge. They said "the menu was old". We offered to pay what the menu said and they refused and were going to call the police. We had a train to catch so we paid with a credit card and disputed it. They ruled in our favor! The service was lousy and the food was mediocre!

    Hanging Umbrellas, resembles Old San Juan.
    Hector P.

    Amazing Cafe'! Great service, delicious food!! Makes me feel like I'm in Old San Juan. They have live music throughout the week! Great place to getaway without going far. I will be returning and bringing family and friends!

The service here is top notch. Lindsay was my server and took extra good care of me, and my pup! Jordan and Bri are great as well, they really care about their guests. Having been in the food service industry, I can relate to the job and know what it takes. They all have IT, and Big John's is lucky to have them! The atmosphere was perfect. I prefer outdoor seating, and the outside patio area was as clean as the inside. Makes it really easy to stay a while! ;) Overall, this establishment exemplifies what dining SHOULD be. Keep up the great work guys and ladies, you have a new lifelong customer here, no doubt about it!

    I seriously can't wait to be back at Big John's! Let me tell you 5 reasons why we WILL be back:…read more 1. Our waitress was absolutely the sweetest. Lindsay gets a special shout-out for being kind, caring, and attentive! What a ray of sunshine! She was so excited when she arrived with my dessert (she made a brownie sundae just for me). It was everything you would want in a sweet treat. A perfectly warm brownie and cold vanilla ice cream topped with whipped cream just hits, and they do it right! 2. The. Meats. Were. GREAT. I got the sampler sliders and my boyfriend got the sampler platter. The slider buns were perfect and even toasted a bit which added major bonus points for me. The pulled pork was tender and flavorful. Brisket was peppery and perfect. Ribs were also veryyyy tenderrrrrr. You can tell the food is made with love. All I could do was smile as I ate my lunch, knowing I have an amazing bbq spot so close to me. 3. The corn nuggets were SO GOOD and SO comforting. Crispy, sweet, and perfect. I eyed the menu before going, and these caught my eye immediately. They did not disappoint. I can't wait to have them again! 4. The sauces were FIRE. The sweet and the crimson were perfect to us. 5. Who doesn't like 80s Rock and Roll?! Its one of those places that make you feel at home. The location is perfect, as well. Lakefront is a great place to dily dally while you digest the deliciousness. Rock on, Big John!!

    Such a cute, cozy little café! We had come by Buchito in the downtown Kissimmee area one morning…read moresome months ago but at the time they were closed. Had an early start to the day on 11/11 and decided to swing by and I must say, that was a good decision. LOL! The service is courteous, friendly and quick. Very neat and clean little place. The interiors are fashioned after old European cafes. Very charming! We had the Bacon and egg bagel sandwich, the Spanish avocado toast, a cafe con leche and a mocha latte. The husband said his bagel sandwich was good, not great and could be better if the egg was seasoned. He loved his coffee. My mocha latte was good, could be better if the ratio of the chocolate was increased just a smidgen. But I was absolutely blown away by the Spanish avocado toast! What a delicious combination of quality Spanish chorizo, guacamole, boiled egg slices and onions! It was hands down the best thing I've had for breakfast in years! Offered the husband a bite and he concurred. If not for anything else, we'd definitely return for just this one dish. LOL! Highly recommend trying the Spanish avocado toast at Buchito. It's pure delight in every bite.

My husband had the Peruvian shrimp with yellow rice, salad, and black beans. We were both raving about the taste while eating.

If you are super sensitive or have celiac, just beware of that. The staff are lovely, friendly and helpful. Conveniently located in the theme parks area near Orlando. You should not miss this restaurant. Try something new if you've never tasted Latin American cuisine, or try it if you've grown up with it. You won't go wrong and you'll likely be back.

You order at a kiosk fast food style, but all of the food is then prepared freshly and authentically. They have a huge menu with all kinds of delicious Latin eats like sandwiches and platters. We absolutely loved our Cuban sammies which came on thick and sweet bread. My kids kept it simple with tenders and fries and also enjoyed! They have a big drink selection and you can find everything from juices to fresh cocktails. The biggest hit was their large indoor screened patio - perfect for my kids to run around. If you want to avoid fast food but also don't feel like taking your kids to a proper sit down restaurant than this is a really great option.
