    Located inside the Marriott
    Joy R.

    I'm usually reluctant to eat in hotel restaurants but the reviews convinced me to give it a try while in Orlando with my family of four waiting on the other 15 of our extended family to arrive. I will start with the positives. Angel is FABULOUS! We couldn't have had better service. Ask for him. It's convenient. If you don't want to move your vehicle or get an Uber, it's nice to have a spot steps away from your room. My food was decent. I had the Boom boom shrimp tacos and the shrimp were seasoned to perfection. My tortillas were a little crunchy on the edges and I'm used to soft, warm ones. The fellas in my party had fries (they are waffle fries so know that). It sounded like they were eating potato chips when they bit into the fries. Their burgers were described as "ok". Hubby and I had drinks that came from the hotel bar, a Cosmo and an Old Fashioned. I make them much better so save your money on bar drinks in general. Angel made the experience better. If you do venture in, make sure to ask for him.

    Better than your average hotel restaurant. The prices are steep but are priced at about what you would expect for the convenience of being in the hotel. They have a bunch of TVs throughout the restaurant so it's a good place to grab food and watch a game. I ordered the turkey club sandwich and it was great.

    Outstanding burger - 10 out of 10. Open until midnight. Very spacious. Open concept. Very large space. The service was unbelievable. The waiter was right on me. He came over multiple times to make sure I had everything I needed. The manager came over and checked to make sure I was having everything I needed. As an aside it's an excellent place to watch sports. They were about five TV spread out nicely. The tables are spread out nicely. Definitely not a cramped restaurant.

    Stayed at the Marriott Orlando Airport Lakeside after a cruise and stopped into CT... Nice place with solid food and good service, but very pricey for what you get ($90 for lunch without drinks).

    We had a great dinner at Crimson Tavern. Normally I have pretty low expectations for hotel restaurants, but the food was great, and our server Caleb was awesome. Caleb helped us navigate the menu with his honest recommendations, and was great with our kids. We were also pleased to find out they have a decent kids menu, and our very picky kids were happy with the pasta and marinara.

    Great food and service. The restaurant and bar was packed for dinner but I'd still recommend this place. Poke Appetizer and Sea Bass Entre were both excellent.

    Turkey BLT with chips. Was a good sandwich though not much for $17.

    Good food and friendly service! Our server was quick to get us seated and to take our order. The restaurant has a nice theme to it and the menu is perfect with a variety of options (but not too many!). I went with the Turkey BLT and chips, which came out quickly and tasted fresh. My only minor qualm was the rather inflated price of $17 for a sandwich and chips. That said, it's not a bad place to stop for a quick lunch, assuming you dont mind spending just a bit.

    I've been coming to Orlando for business this month and this restaurant is close to where I'm staying and this is my second time being here and I'm going to write a review today and pictures to post. This restaurant is beautiful inside and I love the soft lighting and ambiance. The Electronica/Chill Lounge tunes they play here are my favorite! The food is excellent and exquisite. I ordered Conch Chowder and it was absolutely delicious. The Shrimp Cargo(Shrimp cooked in escargot garlic butter with cheese)was amazing! I never had Shrimp that good! The Caesar Salad with Shrimp was very generous and tasty(These were from my last visit). I had Key Lime pie to go for breakfast and it was good too. Tonight, I had delicious, hot fresh bread with butter(I know it's not good for me, but I couldn't resist!), Salmon with green beans/Mango Salsa/broiled new potato and it was so beautifully put together and I ate every bite of it. My server said that they fly in different kind of fish everyday and cook them in different ways. He actually recommended it to me and I was so glad I chose it. The service was excellent and he was very friendly and helpful. This will be my go to place to have elegant, exquisite meals while I'm in Orlando.

    The chicken Milanese is tender, crispy, and comes bathed in a luxurious lemon beurre blanc sauce... it gives the essence of lemon chicken but is much more highly elevated. My server recommended it to me and I'm so glad he did! He was also honest about the soup du jour, saying it wasn't that good, and helped me avoid a culinary disaster altogether -- I really appreciated his honesty, and his recommendations were on point. Appetizers are eminently splittable and worth the high(ish) cost of about $12-$15 per app. Definitely recommend! There was a slight hiccup with my salad as it didn't come with any sauce and I had to ask for the dressing, but the service more than made up for it!

    Mahi sandwich with fries
    Lexie M.

    Friendly staff and nice set up for a hotel restaurant. I knew going in but the prices are rather steep, almost $20 for calamari appetizer and almost $20 for a sandwich. The calamari was rings and tentacles but nice and crisp served with a thai chill sauce. The sandwich was mahi but the fish seemed undercooked I did not eat most of the sandwich. Quick and easy and the staff was very attentive and friendly.

    It isn't too often that many of the items which appear on a diner's plate come from just a few hundred feet away, and in the restaurant's own Chef's Garden. At Crimson Tavern, diners are invited to take a stroll through the nearby 2,500 square foot Chef's Garden and see what is ready to be harvested and will soon end up on the menu or quite possibly, on their plate that very evening. For Executive Chef Anthony Hull, Crimson Tavern truly defines the "farm to table" culinary movement. The restaurant actually came about because there was an open dining space at the Orlando Airport Marriott and since much of the hotel's senior management were all serious foodies, including General Manager Chris Donohue, the logical step was to create a restaurant that represented what most chefs believe is an iconic way to eat : Farm to Table. Since every dish is the sum of its components, the farm to table philosophy means a strong connection to the surrounding farms and artisans. The culinary team works very diligently to develop partnerships with many of Orlando's best purveyors to source the finest ingredients available. They also invite the local farm community to grow for them, which helps these farms to sustain a way of life. Additionally, as the Chef's Garden grows and evolves (it currently produces approximately 20,000 pounds of food per year), more of the fruit trees will start to produce and evolve the experience even further as they will supply many of the ingredients, which the team can use for jamming and pickling. In fact, the culinary team is exploring the branding and retail sale of their homemade condiments and jams. They will continue to make hot sauce, pickles, jams, and chutneys from their garden and seasonal offerings. As the BBQ program grows (the restaurant offers seasonal Friday Night Barbecues) a line of rubs and sauces will also become available. According to Chef Hull, "The main reason we are producing these products is to control what goes into them, not just from a flavor standpoint, but also a wellness aspect by eliminating additives and unnatural ingredients, and if we have a really good harvest, it is also a way to preserve the extra product".

    The dinner menu is comprised mostly of small plates and appetizers conducive as accompaniments to drinking, but there is also a list of heartier entree items like steaks, fish, burger and pork dishes if you so choose. For a tavern, I would have expected more than 6 of the craft beers listed on their menu, in addition to the usual line up of domestics and imports, but maybe they will be adding more in the future to their drink offerings. There is however a very nice selection of cocktails and wines along with the beers that guests can enjoy. Starting off at the top of the menu is their selection of cured meats and cheeses entitled "Room & Board" with plates like salumi, Benton ham, and cheeses. The salumi plate was a favorite, coming with sopressata molinari, spicy coppa, speck, mortadella, served with bread selection, house pickled trio and mustard. The Benton ham selection is a colorful board with cured Tennessee country ham with a side of pepper jelly and delicious warm baked biscuits. Also, the Australian goat feta cheese with olive oil cheese plate selection was savory and decadent - I wanted to finish the whole plate of cheeses. I think I would have been satisfied with just these three dishes for the meal. Other satisfying appetizers and bites from the menu included a fantastic house baked Soft Pretzel, served warm with beer-smoked cheddar dip and Fried Green Tomatoes, with black pepper aioli. The African and southern influenced Black Eyed Hushpuppies, served with a cilantro chutney, was a delicate, interesting take on the usually boring appetizer. The House Burger, made with juicy, tender beef and topped with caramelized onion, gruyere cheese, house made bread & butter pickles, on sesame bun was one of my favorite burgers that I have had this year but may be a bit pricy at $16. The ribeye steak with house mustard greens was also a favorite, very tender and flavorful with a nice sear at the perfect requested medium rare temperature. There were a few items that I weren't such a big fan of like the Smoked Trout Rillette, which needed a little more creamy texture and flavor, and the Boudin Noir Sausage with apple slaw and the beef cheek empanadas which both had some flavors that I personally disagreed with. Make sure to save room for dessert though, as the Crimson Tavern's specialty "Knickerbocker Glory" is definitely something to try. The Knickerbocker Glory is named for the traditional british ice cream sundae, made with locally crafted milk gelato from Muse Gelato layered extra high with decadent toppings, creams, crumbles and drizzles

As happy as I was about the delicious food, I was very sad that happy hour was over at 7 pm. When you enter, the first thing you see is the bar, which is where happy hour occurs. There were two incredible bartenders who were working tirelessly to get everyone's food AND drink orders. It was so impressive. There are many options with gluten-free modifications. The montaditos have meat on bread, which can be subbed for meat on cucumber slices (I had zero faith at first, and they turned out phenomenally). The patatas bravas are gluten-free but I'm not sure about whether the fryer is GF (not a factor for me). The pintxos are all GF. The servers are pretty knowledgeable, but it is best to check with a manager. Bulla gets crowded so make sure to get there early and snag a spot. Will absolutely be back.

We ordered the pan con tomate, Patatas Bravas, the blueberry and ricotta pancakes and the breakfast paella. All of which were good.

Let's focus on the positives first: the atmosphere is incredibly fun and the live music Saturday night was a perfect touch at the bar. There were plenty of fun activities for the kids and there was an all-you-can-eat buffet for the kids with fried chicken and shrimp, macaroni and cheese, fries, and red velvet cupcakes. $25 is a deal if your child would chow down on shrimp, but it might not be a great deal if your child is usually full after four bites. Our server was absolutely fantastic, friendly and very attentive. We started off the dinner with some fantastic deviled eggs and a lemon cello cocktail. I ordered the shrimp and grits and was really disappointed with the tiny, overcooked shrimp and crawfish that accompanied the slightly bland grits. The shrimp on the kids buffet was at least four times larger than the sad little shrimp in my dish. I think the sausage was cut into smaller chunks just so it wouldn't be so obvious how small the shrimp was. My husband didn't love his heirloom tomato salad and said the Wagyu appetizer was disgusting. Dessert was mediocre. The macarons that accompanied my crème brûlée were stale and chewy.

The steak frites are just as magnificent as my boyfriend and I remembered. Have you ever had a food memory? Years ago, my dad made the best steak I've ever had. He passed away when I was a kid, and two summers ago, when I took my first bite of the steak here, my mouth watered... but so did my eyes. It was one of the strangest, most beautiful experiences I've ever had at a restaurant. For a moment, it felt like Dad was sitting at the table with us. To taste something so familiar, something I hadn't experienced in over twenty years, was surreal. That's not a compliment I hand out lightly. So we each had that For this visit, we started with the rock shrimp tacos, and they absolutely did not disappoint. They packed a nice little kick without overwhelming the dish, and we practically inhaled them. Of course, we had to finish the meal the same way we did last time: with churros. Somehow they were even better than we remembered. Crispy, warm, perfectly sweet, exactly the kind of dessert that makes you argue over who gets the last bite. My boyfriend ordered two Old Fashioneds, and I had two Cosmos. Both were delicious and definitely generous on the pour. I was a little concerned when we arrived for our 8:00 p.m. reservation because the place was PACKED for a Thursday night. We ended up waiting a bit past our reservation time. The hostess suggested we grab a drink at the bar, but that area was just as crowded, so we hung out in the lobby instead. The wait ended up being completely worth it because we were seated at the exact table I was secretly hoping for: the most perfect little corner window booth, straight out of a movie scene. It was the ideal setting for our last night of vacation. And then there was our server, Anton. Anton could teach a master class on waiting tables. He was efficient, funny, attentive without hovering, knowledgeable without being pretentious, and genuinely seemed to enjoy what he was doing. In a world where great service sometimes feels like a lost art, Anton was an absolute delight. The Ravenous Pig delivered once again: phenomenal food, excellent cocktails, memorable service, and one of those meals you'll still be talking about long after you've gone home.
