“Just ate here for the first time tonight with my parents. Impeccable service. Quality food. Very nice ambiance. Loved it! We order chicken Marsala, New York strip, the grouper, scallop appetizer, Caesar salad, bruschetta and deserts. We also had the for old fashioned, a mojito and the pear martini.“
“Not sure if the managers read the review often, but I wanted to shout out Cindy I think her name was. A bit of an older woman with blondish hair. She was great. We came with a kid and 7 adults and she took care of us super well. I hope she reads this and knows how much we loved her.“
“I travel a lot for work. The service from Kristen and Kendall are the best I've seen anywhere. Two Sundays ago I watched Kendall run around and keep her composure like a true professional handling an unexpected crowd. Food is off the charts and I don't have to drive anywhere. If you want a great meal and friendly service. Hit them up. Saw a complaint about a limited steak menu. Limited means fresh. This isn't a diner.“
“4.5 ⭐ The food is very good and you can tell the ingredients are quality. The staff absolutely takes pride in the restaurant and food. The restaurant itself is very clean and well kept. Most of our food was absolutely delicious and well made. The waiter was knowledgeable on the ingredients and preparation process which I appreciated. We did have an issue with my main entree (half duck) it was extremely over cooked. But the staff went above and beyond to make it right the manager also approached us to apologize personally. We would return and recommend it as an excellent fine dining location.“
“Papa Llama, 2840 Curry Ford Road, Orlando- 4-Stars Michelin Recommended- Bib Gourmand! Peruvian immigrants, Kevin and Maria Ruiz, say they founded Papa Llama in 2016 as an experimental pop up and opened the doors of this location in August 2020. In 2022, they earned the Michelin Guide's coveted "Bib Gourmand" award for establishments that serve good food at reasonable prices so naturally, I got excited. Paulina, my server, was well prepared and knowledgeable, making for an auspicious beginning in a gorgeous environment featuring good prices for dishes that could be made to satisfy both carnivores and herbivores alike. I ordered the entire family style menu which was, according to Papa Llama, "designed to be tasted together, shared, and fought over." So much food for just over a hundred dollars. The prices may have been cheap but the taste and quality of (most) victuals valieron un Perú! A hearty Big Boy Thank You (Sulpayki!) to Kevin and Maria and the culinary dactylograms of their ancestors, on this amazing cuisine (Somaq Mihuna!). The first item on the menu was Olives--whole green Castelvetrano olives marinated in house with aji panca--which were so delectable I could eat them all day. Next, the Red + Gold Beets, a minty beet salad with honey ají amarillo vinaigrette, queso fresco, and candied pistachio, which started out smooth and creamy and ended with a pleasantly piquant bite. Papas a la Huancaína followed, a fingerling potato dish with spicy aji amarillo cream, wakatay (black mint) salsa verde, and beef chicharron, topped with a fried egg. The potatoes themselves were not the star, but the combination of flavors in the sauce were amazing, unctuous but smooth. Papa Llama carries a long list of natural wines, more wines than food items, actually. That evening, I chose the Yuzu Sake, and may I say, "Holy smokes!" How refreshing after consuming so many peppers. The rest of the dishes I would give 4.5 to 5-Stars, EXCEPT for the side of frozen Sysco French fries which almost ruined an otherwise stellar meal. There are over 300 kinds of potatoes in Peru. Over 300! Perhaps in the United States we don't have the same abundance as found in El Valle Sagrado (the Sacred Valley) but, por favor, do not stoop to this! The Big Boy says, "Eat here. All the authentic Peruvian flavors at Papa Llama are 5-Star, but skip the fries, which are a corporate conglomerate frozen food disappointment."“
“Service was Awesome, super friendly and fast considering there was only One server for the entire restaurant.!!Atmosphere was great, quiet talking with soft music in the background, some restaurants blare their music so loud that you can't even have a conversation, Not here. Great Atmosphere.!!Food quality and portion size has been slowly declining over the last few years unfortunately, but not so bad yet that I don't enjoy my meal here, still decent food....and we did get our ducks.!!!“
“This place is Awesome! When I saw my steak, I almost passed out because I had no idea how big it was. The food and the waitresses were and are very professional and kind. Love this place. When I am really hungry for a good steak. This is my place!“
“This was our first time attending this restaurant. Nick was AMAZING, AWESOME, KIND AND UNDERSTAND toward our dietary needs.Our food was OUTSTANDING! If you have allergies, we highly recommend you create and print your own allergy card to hand to your server. It makes a huge impact on your foods preparation from the cooks and the manager.My wife had the see bass and I had the ribeye.I had the smoked old fashion as well. Highly recommend. Its definitely high quality food and as such can be more expensive. Coming from a person who doesn't generally eat out often, this place is definitely top notch!Ask for Nick and have a great time.Dietary restrictions: My wife cannot have gluten, dairy, corn products, and more.“
“OMG, our dinner was sooooo delicious. Started off with Blue Crab Deviled Eggs, amazing. We ordered the 85 Day Aged Prime New Your Strip, and it just melts in your mouth. We also got the Wipped Mashed Potatoes and Creamed Spinach. The sides are large enough to share. Everything was incredible. We were very impressed with the whole experience. The manager came over and spoke with us for a while to make sure everything was to satisfaction. Our server kept checking on us and made several suggestions on other wonderful things to try. We ending dinner with a lots of leftovers which they boxed up for up. This is a very romantic atmosphere for the perfect date night. This is going to be our new spot to visit. Wow!!!“
“First time coming to this location since they moved down on 434 by Lowe’s and it is nice! I came out Easter Eve and Nancy was my server she was so kind and helpful. For appetizer we shared the bloomin onion and it was good! For the main entree I had the filet Sheila and for my sides I got the house salad and chili which was spicy and then he got the ribs, sirloin, broccoli and baked potato he said the steak was kinda dry but everything else was good! When my steak came out my sides were missing so I told Nancy about it and she ended up getting Alberto the owner to bring it out but at the end when the bill came Nancy was nice enough to take the chilli off my bill since they forgot to bring my sides to the table and the chili was an up charge not one of the free sides that came with the steak! You also have to try the koala punch it’s a good cocktail and comes with a koala bear on top so cute!“
