As a huge wine lover, The Wine Room on Park Avenue is easily one of those places I recommend if you…read morewant to explore a variety of wines without committing to a full glass of something you've never tried. One of my favorite things about The Wine Room is the self-serve concept. You load a card with however much you'd like to spend, then use it at the wine dispensers throughout the space. You can choose your wine and your pour size, which makes it really easy to sample several different varieties at your own pace. They have a large selection, so whether you already know what you like or you're looking to try something completely new, there's plenty to choose from. The staff is also very helpful if you need recommendations. The ambiance is cute and inviting, and they have a food menu with plenty of small bites, including cheese boards, mac and cheese, tacos, sandwiches, flatbreads, and more. I personally don't usually come here for the food--the wine is the main attraction for me--but it's nice to have options to snack on while you're tasting. I recently attended one of their wine and cheese pairing events and really enjoyed the experience. We tasted six different wines, each paired with a different cheese, and I was pleasantly surprised by the portions of cheese we received. They also served baguette on the side, which was a nice touch. It was a fun way to learn a little more about wine and experience different pairings. They host different events throughout the year that you can purchase separate tickets for, so I definitely recommend keeping an eye on their event calendar if you're a wine lover. Overall, The Wine Room is a great Park Avenue spot for a date night, girls' night, or even just an afternoon of wine tasting. If you enjoy wine and like being able to explore at your own pace, this is definitely worth adding to your Orlando list.

Expanding the number of guests from the original reservation was not an issue at all. Contemporary decor, airy dining space and an open kitchen create a trendy, upscale setting. It's a popular place, so the noise level gets up there. Our server, Shenica, was a pro, flawlessly meeting our needs with vibrancy. She made sure our long table was never overloaded with unnecessary clutter. Her knowledge and guidance were precise and valuable. Not everyone in our party went with the MD menu. A downside was late pizza delivery for those who ordered it. The rest of us were well into our meals by the time pizzas finally arrived. Apologies and updates were provided, though. Another fail was the MD meatball appetizer (Albondigas). Disappointment rolled into a ball. Bland, dry meat. Nuts and sauce provided only mediocre flavor. First bite of Pork Pappardelle was a bit salty, but more savory balanced as I continued on. Finished the entire dish. Sticky Toffee Cake was warm, spongey goodness. Thinking about it takes me to a happy place. Really enjoyed my glass of Ferrari-Carano Fume Blanc. Right up my alley as a regular pinot grigio enthusiast. I know I'll return. The brunch menu is very enticing.

The place itself is super cute, I love the decor, it has fun vibes. Big fan of the space - it's cozy without being too stuffy. Our server was... bad. She came to check on our table of 6 total of two times, and someone else came to bring us our check. I had to grab her to refill my sister in law's water (she's nursing and not drinking) since she never came back to check on us. We ordered one bottle of champagne and with 5 of us, we would have happily and easily ordered another since we were there to visit and catch up. She never came back, so we never ordered anything else. When we finally got the check, they charged us for a different bottle than what we ordered - and it was $50 more. I sent it back and they corrected the charge, but weren't too happy about it. In theory, this is a cute and fun spot. I'm not sure I'll give it another chance, but maybe I'll try again next year when I'm back home with my family.

It is located in the Mills 50 district next to Tori Tori (another local FAV). It is truly a nice little getaway spot from the usual hustle and bustle of the Mills 50 bar scene. They have seating indoors and outdoors. Their outdoor patio area is charming and adorned with umbrellas, and the fountain just adds a special touch, as well as masks the typical street sounds of passing cars and passersby. In the cooler months, the patio is just a vibe! The interior is just as charming with "French-inspired" influences, lovely lighting & decor that ties in the European escape this wine bar beautifully embodies. On my first visit, we tried to sit outdoors, but the Florida heat (& bees) had other plans for us. So, we transitioned inside and sat at their bar area. We were immediately greeted by the kindest servers who guided us on their menu selections. My friend and I, with similar wine tastes (we both love our wines DRY like DESERT), both opted for a glass of rosé and YUM! We followed it up with a white selection recommended by our server, and we enjoyed it immensely. Truly ten, ten, tens across the board! We did not eat (which, in all honesty, is okay with me). And based on reviews from various other Yelpers, the consensus SEEMS to be to eat prior to coming to Lorelei. So, I kept that in mind and on my second visit to Lorelei, I decided to just try MORE of their wine selection. On my most recent visit, we did try some light bites. Typically, on all my visits, I usually cap around two glasses of wine, and it's reasonable. They are not the cheapest spot, especially if you add food to your tab, but for the quality, it is worth it (to me as it relates to the wine selection), as I haven't really had a terrible glass of wine there. Maybe on my next visit, I'll try more of their food menu. Beyond that, Lorelei has been a great addition to the Mills 50 District! I am looking forward to how they will grow with the community!

There were a couple girls taking pics outside when we arrived, so of course I told my parents they needed to do a pic as well. The food menu looked amazing and I will try some bites next time. The bottles of wine were more expensive than expected, but the glasses and beers were very reasonable.

The bartender gave an excellent wine and food pairing suggestion and the drawings on the wall of winemakers gave a "Theo of Golden" vibe (iykyk). I'm still dreaming about the perfectly toasted bites of bread with the homemade salted butter, pickles, melted cheese and ham. Ah, I can't wait to go back!

The staff was very knowledgeable about all of the different wines and helped to select the best glass for what I was in the mood for that evening. The bar was very clean and there is a lot more space then what you see when you first walk in. It was all very clean and modern looking inside. Looking forward to my next trip in.

When I ordered the zucchini entree, the waiter,, Teaya, asked if I was plant based and wanted to substitute the parmesian cheese for a plant based cheese. She was such a thoughtful waitress and that was a really neat option they offered for plant based diets. Every single item I had was so delicious. As we know, vegetarian and gluten free often times doesn't get the same amount of flavor and attention as other foods, but that was not the case here. The vegetarian escargot was so delicious. The sauce had the same taste as real escargot, but of course the items brought their own flavor. The mushrooms were my favorite as they tasted closest to the real thing, but I was impressed they included plantains and figs. Each dessert on the Magical Dining menu was great. My favorite ended up being the chocolate mousse. Typically I don't like plain chocolate desserts, but I really liked theirs because you could taste it was handmade mousse and the whipped cream as well was handmade. The seating was limited, so I recommend reservations. It's located in the center of Hannibal Square, a super cutie spot in Winter Park. There was a free parking lot a short walk away as well.

It's…read morenestled on West New England Avenue, Suite 119 and will reminder you of an intimate bistro with Brazilian and Italian fusion dishes. Reservations are highly recommended as the seating is limited. It has a nice quiet neighborhood ambiance fitting for this area. Two other Yelp Elites (Lorn C. and Mikhail C.) joined me and we were seated in a cute half booth at the window. It fit the three of us perfectly and our server, Teaya, always made sure the previous plates were cleared before bringing the next course. Teaya was friendly and efficient and gave us sufficient space to enjoy each other's company. We each started off with a drink, and I ordered the Le Charmel Pinot Noir, which was delicious. We then each ordered our three course selections to start the evening. There was no rush to finish our drinks or dinner, which was greatly appreciated. I enjoyed the following three courses. First, the Plant-based "Escargot" was a mixture of mushrooms, zucchini, plantain and black figs. The "Escargot" in this appetizer's name comes from the plate it was served on and the delicious sauce prepared with it. Snails were not a part of this mixture, but they were not missed in this satisfying concoction. For the main course, I chose the Cerdo Iberico Con Salsa Pedro Ximenez. It was a deliciously roast pork tenderloin, sitting in a mustard sauce, which was incredible. It was also accompanied by herb roasted potatoes. Mikhail had the same course, and he raved about it also. For dessert, I chose the Affogato, which was a combination of vanilla gelato with caramel espresso on the side. It was the perfect final act for this magical dining experience. Mikhail chose the Pot De Crème which consisted of a rich chocolate custard with creme Chantilly and sea salt. He allowed Lorn and I a taste, and we all agreed it reminded us of a velvety chocolate mousse that was definitely homemade. Finally, I would like to also commend the manager/owner who checked on us throughout the evening and made us so comfortable in his environment. If you are ever in the Hannibal Square area, especially during the current Magical Dining period, I recommend you try this quaint restaurant. Just remember, as stated above, reservations are recommended.

I ordered the Milk Punch which was delicious and a good balance of sweetness. My friend got the Margarita and also enjoyed it. To eat, we shared the Say Cheese Board which perfectly fit the vibe of the lounge and had a good mix of cheese, fruit, and bread (which they will bring you more of if you'd like). Definitely shareable and a great start. We then had the Gambas A La Ajillo which may have been my favorite of the night. They have a tableside presentation for it where they cut up the egg and shrimp, mix it all together, and then crush salty chips on top. The chips get a little chewy in the sauce and it's incredible! Lastly, we had the Risotto A La Amatriciana which was a fun take on a "traditional" risotto that most of us are used to. The risotto was in little fried balls, like arancini, and broken apart and tossed in the sauce tableside. Every bite had that crispy texture and was another great dish. 3/3! The ambiance was very laid back and I would love to come back on a night that they are spinning records. Service was great without being too overpowering, and the decor was beautiful. We sat in these huge comfortable leather chairs that I wanted to take home with me! Parking was also easy as there is a garage next door.
