Restaurants near Amway Arena

Food was really good. Loved the hush puppies, hand rolls and the maki. Would definitely come back.

Omar made the experience great! Give that guy a raise.

My partner and I have always wanted to try this place and decided to just send it and come here on a random Wednesday night. And it was AMAZING. The ambiance was SO aesthetic and immersive. Our server, Arian, and his server assistant Abr, took such good care of us. Even the staff besides Arian and Abr paid us attention - they would suddenly appear and take the wine out of our hands if we attempted to pour it ourselves. Arian's wine recommendation paired well with both our entrees and he timed the coursing of the meal perfectly. The food was delicious!!!! Especially the baba ghanoush. We were also blown away by the Vanilla Creme Brûlée. We weren't even speaking while eating it, just looking at each other, nodding our heads, and pointing back at the little dessert. It was such a beautiful experience.

We eat at Kres during the broadway show season at Doctor Phillips and they never disappoint. We shared a bucatini pasta in white parmesan sauce with spinach, bay scallops, and filet mignon. It was amazing. We also had the spinach salad with warm bacon dressing, beautiful tomatoes with fried onion crisps and a mild cheese crumbled on top. Service is always top notch. Drinks were great.

This is one of the most dynamic places in Central Florida. I wish I could go more often. The staff is friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. The bartenders are entertaining. The owner(s) walk around and make everyone feel like the are part of the family. Definitely the "who's who" of Orlando. Our own "where everybody knows your name". Beautiful atmosphere and amazing food. Thank you for an enjoyable lunch for my team. We had a party of 7 today and it was perfect.
