Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Ponce Inlet

We’ve lived in downtown Orlando for years and finally tried Kres for the first time. It exceeded expectations with incredible service and delicious food. Our steaks were cooked perfectly and I highly recommend the ribeye. The Kres espresso martini was the perfect start to our meal. Our server was very attentive, efficient, and offered great menu suggestions. She also ensured we weren’t late to a work event I had that evening. Overall a lovely dinner and we’ll definitely be returning!

Our reservation was on file and we were seated immediately in our favorite, a booth. The food was fresh, hot, and delicious. Our server and a "trainee" took good care of us. Another positive experience at the Tap Room. We'll be back!

If you are an Ahi Tuna lover, Christner’s is by far, the best place to go. I believe it is the best Ahi Tuna I have ever eaten. Their King Crab Claws are phenomenal and completed our delicious meal. While this restaurant is known for its steaks, I will say its seafood is wonderful as well. Definitely make a reservation.

Always an incredible experience every time we are there. Food is always great as well as the attentive staff. We can’t say enough for Rudy’s service . Truly professional, delivering a flawless and memorable experience from start to finish.This is the most authentic Italian restaurant you can get in Orlando. Portion are small in size and expensive with true Italian flavors. Terrific place to celebrate special events or get together with old friends.

A special celebration for my wife's birthday was spent at Martini's organic. The food and service were both excellent. Rack of lamb and tuna were both delicious along with the farmer salad and butterscotch creme brule' for desert. I wish the Daytona Beach and Flagler area had more dining options of this level. This will be our new go to for special occasions but not a regular occurrence due to price. Overall, very satisfied!
