    French toast and turkey bacon
    Neasha H.

    So happy I found this hidden gem! Great spot located away from all the busyness of international drive. Breakfast was really good especially the lemon ricotta pancakes and prices were really affordable. Service was quick and our server and host were really nice. I also love that it's locally owned. If you are in Orlando consider skipping the chain restaurants one day and give Popo's a try!

    Found this place on Google Maps today. They said it's been open for about 6 months. The concept is nice, the restaurant is squeaky clean and the ambience is great, very relaxing. Freddy was our server today, very very attentive and professional. The coffee was a 1/10, credit for being hot. Unsure if it was maybe the quality of the creamer? My coffee was undrinkable. I ordered a meat lovers scrambled eggs with a side of cheesy hash browns and added a pancake. Eggs: Were extremely watery and seemed to be liquid eggs (really? At a bistro?) The meats did not seemed to be sautéed before mixing with the eggs, so they were a bit raw. Hash browns: The shredded hash brown portion that I got was the thinnest I've ever seen, more cheese than potatoes too, very weird. Pancake: It was great, the syrup was served warm which I really like. Sad that the quality of the food isn't there, this could've easily been a great frequent spot for us as it is so close to both home and work!

    Super convenient breakfast/brunch spot right next to endless summer dockside. You can walk there in like 3-5 mins. It's cute diner style setting. Some fun artwork to see while you eat. Our group really liked their food. The highlights were the lemon ricotta pancakes, the breakfast potatoes, and the club sandwich. The loaded potato soup was a bit salty and very small for a bowl. I'd pick something different next time. I'll be back for an easy dining option next visit staying at this hotel.

    Popo's is a breath of fresh air amongst tons of touristy flavorless food joints here in Orlando. The Cubano was absolutely legit. Perfectly pressed and made authentic using both pulled pork and ham. Fries were crispy and hot. Even the pickle had a great spice at the end. The heart and skill of the chef is represented well in the food. If you are looking for a quiet relaxing breakfast/lunch spot, you have found it here at Popo's!

    The best breakfast we had while staying at dockside. Amazing food (a cinnamon roll to die for, city bowl breakfast, lemon ricotta pancakes with crispy turkey bacon, and an order of buttermilk pancakes with sausage for the kids). We also ordered black coffees and some amazing hot coffees (white chocolate mocha, spiced vanilla latte). Attentive service, VERY clean facility. It was enjoyable for the adults and twin toddlers. Highly highly recommend. We forgot to take photos of everything but here are the lemon ricotta pancakes and city bowls.

    In the sea of chain restaurants, it's nice to have found a locally owned business that has great food and great service. I would recommend anyone in the area to try it out. The food is great.

    Oh my goodness. This place is a must-try! We originally planned to go to First Watch, but the wait was too long, so we decided to give Popo's a try and I'm so glad we did! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with such genuine kindness that it immediately set the tone for the whole experience. The service was incredible. Friendly, attentive, and quick. The food? Absolutely delicious. With a wide variety of menu options and very reasonable prices, there's truly something for everyone. Can't recommend it enough!

The atmosphere is themed, they have a space for live music, and I love the different seating options (bar, high tops, tables, and booths). As a tradition, we always order a handful of things to try at a new place. For appetizers, we ordered the Bangin' Shrimp and the Pulled Pork Tacos - these were IMMEDIATE 10/10s Genuinely still dreaming of both of these. For the entree, I ordered a Shroom n Swiss - it was cooked so well, but I was surprised that the mushroom was the size of the patty versus smaller ones. The service was great, very attentive and quick!

It was so uncomfortable I just finished as quickly as I could, left my drink, settled up and booked out of there. I did let them know how I felt about the treatment though. Food was good, Manhattan was meh, 2 stars, service sucked.

Everyone was very friendly and helpful, our server helped us choose between drinks and entrees that we were stuck between.

It was a very generous amount of food, and everything was very fresh and the flavors were so well balanced with sweet and savory elements. I also got the Paloma which I enjoyed. My husband got the sausage gravy, which he liked. He said the flavors were more complex than your usual sausage gravy. My other friend got the French toast which she enjoyed very much. She did ask for extra syrup as she felt it didn't have enough but that's a personal preference of course. All in all we were very happy with our brunch and would come back in the future.

I checked in when I arrived, and was told I could sit anywhere in the bar for faster service. I first sat in the show kitchen area, thinking that was a food bar. However, after not getting acknowledged, I moved to the main bar. My bartender (who goes by the letter H) greeted me and told me the tequila fix (13 dollars) was a good drink. Indeed it was with an ample amount of tequila, watermelon, and lime. It was quite refreshing and sweet. I took the popular pork chop dish (24 dollars), which was a big chop glazed in brown butter. It was pretty tender and flavorful with the glaze, and the romesco sauce made the flavors even better. It did get a bit gamey at the end, but I still enjoyed it. The vegetable was a generous amount of various colored carrots, which were thick and a bit crunchy. It had to be cut with a knife, but it was delicious, that the equestrian in me had a happy whinny. For dessert, the suggested cheesecake (9 dollars) was a winner as it was moist and fluffy, providing a sweet end. I saved some for home to enjoy the next day. My bartender was friendly and helpful. She was pretty busy, but still had a cheerful and engaging attitude. I also love the vibe as it was social and busy. The music kept the rhythm going, and the dining area is quite open and big. Outdoor dining is available as well. Sixty Vines reminds me of Cooper Hawks, but maybe a bit more upscale and lively. The food and drinks are great and the prices are pretty reasonable. It's a great place to hang out with friends and have some food, wine, and other cocktails. Overall: A

The margarita wasn't our personal favorite, but that was more of a preference thing and not a reflection of the quality. We began with the burrata and WOW. It felt straight out of Europe. We spent time traveling through southern France and Italy last year, and this dish genuinely reminded us of some of the best restaurants we experienced there. For dinner, we had the filet with peppercorn sauce and the pasta bolognese -- and we basically licked both plates clean. The filet was unbelievable. Honestly better than a steak I had at a long-standing local Michelin restaurant just a few days ago. The pasta was a surprise favorite -- completely homemade from the noodles to the sauce, and absolutely incredible. The only thing we'd skip next time would be the mashed potatoes. We finished with the bread pudding and crème brûlée and... WOW. Both were phenomenal. Also worth noting for anyone with food allergies -- I have a severe mushroom/truffle allergy and felt very comfortable dining here. The staff was knowledgeable and accommodating, which made the experience even better. This has easily become one of our favorite restaurants in Orlando. Christian was an amazing server and made the whole experience feel special -- we truly felt spoiled all night. It was the perfect upscale date night. Highly, highly recommend. Honestly, I'd put this on a must-visit list if you're in Orlando.
