Parking was conveniently located right in front of the restaurant, making it an easy stop. As soon as we walked in, we were warmly greeted and invited to sit wherever we liked. We chose a table near the window and immediately appreciated the intimate and charming atmosphere. The restaurant also features a bar and televisions, creating a relaxed and welcoming vibe. Our waitress was pleasant, attentive, and made us feel right at home, which always enhances the dining experience. Although we weren't extremely hungry, the menu had so many appealing options that we decided to sample a few items. We started with the Caribbean Tea shots, which were unique, refreshing, and surprisingly enjoyable. For drinks, we ordered a Malbec and a Peanut Butter Old Fashioned. Our first entrée was the Churrasco Frites, featuring marinated skirt steak topped with chimichurri and served with twister fries. The steak was cooked perfectly, tender and flavorful, but those fries were the true star of the dish. Still wanting more, we ordered the Garlic Parmesan Twice Cooked Wings. They were nicely prepared and satisfying, though I would have enjoyed a stronger garlic flavor. Not quite finished, we moved on to the Oaxaca Burger, an 8 ounce burger stacked with onion rings, bacon jam, house BBQ sauce, and Oaxaca cheese. This was one of the best burgers I've ever had, and possibly the best. The bun was toasted yet soft, the burger was seasoned perfectly, and it was cooked to a juicy medium temperature. Every bite was packed with flavor. Overall, everything we ordered was excellent, and the service and atmosphere made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend this restaurant and look forward to returning.

I was surprised to see the restaurant so empty at 6:30. There were four people sitting at the end of the bar and two people at a high-top, so we decided to grab two seats at the bar. The bartender brought us menus and said she'd be right back, but it took a while for her to return. I'm not quite sure where she went, but we ordered two glasses of Pinot Noir, and once again, she disappeared. After waiting a while, we finally placed an order for the meatballs and mussels. Then the food arrived, and with the first bite, I was reminded exactly why we came back--and why we'll continue to come back. The chef here is very special. The meatballs were amazing: two huge meatballs served over ricotta cheese with a delicious sauce. The mussels were very good as well, with just the perfect amount of heat and spice. The restaurant wasn't crowded, so I don't understand why the service wasn't a little more attentive. We decided not to stay for dinner, but that certainly doesn't mean we won't be back. The food is just that good.

Our server, Kevin, was fantastic. He was incredibly patient with our party of 8 and took the time to explain the different sake options, menu items, and desserts, making recommendations throughout the evening. I highly recommend starting with the Pan Seared Scallops. They were packed with flavor and served with pickled vegetables, crunchy nuts, and a sweet onion layed over a creamy white sauce that tied the entire dish together perfectly. The Lobster Bisque wasn't my favorite, as it leaned more toward a tomato-based flavor than I expected, but it did include generous chunks of lobster. For my entrée, I had the Chilean Sea Bass paired with the Shrimp Mac & Cheese and Green Beans, and everything was a 10/10. The sea bass was perfectly cooked and melted in your mouth, while the sides were large enough to share, making them perfect for bigger groups.

This is a happening place on a Saturday afternoon. You actually need to reserve tables even in mid afternoon. But I had an outstanding host who found me a very pleasant table in the dining room. I wasn't in the mood for alcohol beverages but they do have good happy hour prices. All of the staff were extremely pleasant, smiling, and were eager to take my order. For my beverage, I ordered an iced tea, and they brought an assortment of sugar-free as well as sugar to choose from. They may not have many people who order tea or coffee but it would be nice to have Stevia. The tea was very good and I'm from the south where iced tea is the number one drink. My server immediately brought me fresh toasted Italian bread with flavored oil and it was delicious. I ordered three items from the happy hour menu. I ordered the Greek salad, the shrimp cocktail and the clam chowder. I didn't care for the Greek salad since I felt it was had a little bit too much dressing and not enough lettuce but some may care for more crunchy vegetable Greek salad with lots of dressing. The chef did come out and offer a substitute since the item wasn't into my liking and that was extremely nice. I didn't expect it. The clam chowder is unbelievable. It is definitely authentic and absolutely delicious. Also the shrimps are humongous and tasted very freshly cooked. And the cocktail sauce was just right. It wasn't super spicy. Even though the bar area is very lively with lots of sports TVs, the dining area is quiet. This is probably the third time I've been to this restaurant and I'll probably go back again this week because I'm craving the clam chowder. If you haven't tried it then you need to check it out. I would, however suggest to get the full menu items because I think I'm going to the next time. They have so much more than it just on the happy hour menu.

My boyfriend ordered the australian margaret river wagyu NY strip and was absolutely blown away. I kept catching him closing his eyes while eating it, and he's STILL talking about that steak!

We recently visited over the weekend to celebrate my mom's birthday, and I just have to say how amazing they did at helping us to celebrate. First we have to give a special shout out to our server Melissa, who just made everything so amazing. She started by bringing us each a glass of champagne to toast. They also placed a table marker that said happy birthday, and Melissa took a photo and printed one for us to keep. I thought this was incredibly nice of them to do and something that I have not experienced at another restaurant. We started by ordering cocktails, I ordered a blueberry lemon drop martini, my sister ordered just a regular lemon drop martini, my mom ordered their salted caramel espresso martini, and my husband ordered a dirty martini with of course blue cheese stuffed olives. My dad just stuck with water but also celebrated with the glass of champagne. They also bring sourdough bread to the table along with two different types of butter. Their first butter is champagne ricotta butter which is amazing and then they always have a seasonal butter, which this time was a pumpkin butter. I was really the only one who enjoyed the pumpkin butter, it had a nice pumpkin flavor as well as a little bit of cinnamon. I am not typically a pumpkin fan however this one was delicious. We also ordered calamari as an appetizer which had a sweet chili sauce. The appetizer was on the smaller side, but it was delicious. My husband and I like to judge a restaurant by their calamari, as we are a huge fans of calamari, and this one held up. It was so good and contained a good mixture of the rings as well as the bodies. For entrees myself and my dad ordered the New York strip, which was crusted with a fantastic seasoning and really just cooked to perfection. This is one of my favorite steaks, I could order this all the time. My mom went with a filet mignon which was also cooked perfectly and very delicious. It did not have the crust like the New York strip but was so tender and just melted in your mouth. My husband went a different route and ordered the pecan crusted pork Shank, which was not his first choice but one that he really decided he wanted to try. He enjoyed and was very happy that he ordered it. I am not a huge pork Shank person myself, but this was absolutely fantastic. It was huge, it had a nice BBQ sauce on it as well as pecans all around. We all agreed this was absolutely delicious. He has actually now tried a steak, a fish, a chicken and a pork dish from Flemings and he has never had a bad meal. He likes to try different things, where I usually go for the steak because they are just that good. My sister decided to order one of their summer items which was a price fix for $49.00. It came with a starter, and she chose the mushroom Brie soup. For the soup, I found it fantastic, I would say though you need to like mushrooms and you need to like truffles. It had a strong flavor of both. She also chose the barbecue salmon as her main entree. This was actually a really good price fix if you didn't want to spend a lot of money here. We also ordered 2 shareable sides for the table and chose the sweet corn brulee as well as the garlic butter mushrooms. I will say that the sweet corn is so good, I think that we could each eat our own. Again, the mushrooms were really good, seasoned with a little garlic, but you would need to be a fan of mushrooms. Since we were celebrating my mom's birthday, we of course had to get dessert and went with the creme brulee. They brought it on a big plate and wrote happy birthday, they also brought her a box of four truffles. The creme brulee is fantastic, probably one of the better ones that we have had. Overall we had a fantastic meal. Is this place expensive, yes. I would say be prepared to spend a good amount of money. However, the service and the food definitely justified the price. They do have some less expensive items and for the first time they had a price fix. This is not a place we go to on a Saturday night, but it has become our favorite place to visit when celebrating a special occasion. I know that they do have Flemings here in Orlando, which my husband and I have not been to. However, this specific location is definitely at the top of our list as one of the best. I would say definitely check it out to help celebrate that special occasion.

Once we arrived we checked and were greeted warmly by the host. The atmosphere was a jazzy feel. All of us were seated immediately and were welcomed by our sever Melissa. Melissa wished my mother in law a happy birthday and offered all of us glasses of champagne to begin things on the house. We thought this wonderful. The champagne was great too. This also gave us some time to look over menu as well. When Melissa returned we were ready to go. We decided on starting with some drinks and a few shareable's for the table. My mother in law ordered from the hand crafted cocktail list, she got the Salted Carmel Espresso Martini (Absolut Vanilia, Kahlúa, Baileys Irish Cream, chilled espresso, house-made salted caramel) She absolutely loved it and said this is her absolute favorite espresso martini. My wife also ordered from the hand crafted cocktail list. She got the Blueberry Lemon Drop ( Tito's Handmade vodka, fresh blueberries, lush candied lemon, balanced with fragrant ripe blueberry)She loved this drink a lot. She gave it 2 thumbs up. I ordered a Belvedere Dirty Martini with blue cheese olives. It was absolutely perfect. My sister in law ordered a regular Lemon Drop Martini. She said it was delicious. As far as shareable's for the table we ordered the Sweet Chili Calamari (lightly breaded, tossed with sweet chili sauce) This was delicious for sure. Had a great crunch, calamari was tender and the chili wasn't overpowering at all; The second items we got were two baskets of their sourdough bread which came with champagne and pumpkin butter to dip with. We LOVED the sourdough and our favorite butter was the champagne butter. For entrees we decided to get some shareable sides for the table. We ordered the Sweet Corn Brûlée( sweet corn custard, golden brown sugar crust) this was simply delicious , also ordered the Garlic Butter Mushroom Medley( shiitake, portobello and button mushrooms) again deliciousness. my mother in law order the Filet Mignon at a medium temperature. She said it was perfectly made and well seasoned; my wife and father in law ordered the New York Strip at a medium temperature. Both said the steaks were perfectly made as well. 10 star for my father in law; my sister in law ordered from the Prix Fixe( 2 courses at $49) for the starter she chose the mushroom brie soup. She thought this was one of best mushroom soups she's ever had; for the entree she had the BBQ Salmon Fillet. She thought the salmon was succulent and the bbq glaze had loads of flavor. I ordered the Pecan Crusted Pork Shank( comes with Roasted Red Pepper Polenta and cilantro oil) this was simply amazing. The pork was fall off the bone. Polenta was outstanding. LOVED this dish. For dessert my father in law ordered a crème brûlée. I was utterly way too full but every body loved it for sure. Had that nice crust on top that you want. All in all this was a phenomenal dinner. Everyone was so warm and welcoming. Special thanks to Melissa for making this a memorable occasion. She was knowledgeable about the menu and took her time. Aces!

From the moment you enter, you are greeted warmly by the hostesses to sushi chefs and to your server. All the employees are friendly and professional. The ambiance is modern and cozy.

The food tastes perfect from the sushi to kitchen food to desserts. There is a perfect balance of flavor and ingredients used and nothing is overpowering the other. The presentation is very unique, chefs use real seasonal flowers to garnish your dish which makes it an art piece to look at. The parking situation is a bit hectic so I do suggest you consider valet parking. I cannot recommend this place to others enough. We will be back soon!
