Restaurants

Since we talked about this earlier:

Visit Orlando Magical Dining Month | Restaurant Month

And there doesn't seem to be a dedicated thread to it, I thought I'd make one to discuss restaurants in Orlando.

What's your favourite place and where would you recommend visiting?

I think this would also be a good place to post any deals (Discounts, promotions, Groupon etc) currently available which might help fellow members try a new place and save a bit of money too.

Chatham's Place.

Cozy atmosphere, great food, free extras like amuse bouche, fantastic wine lists, live piano music, and even though I only ever get there once a year on my trip down they remember my wife and I and always seat us at the same table.

I love small things like that in a restaurant.

Me too. It is because of the personalized touches like this that we not only recommend this place to people, but also consider it a must do restaurant every year we go down. In fact, the last time we were there (which was only our third visit) my wife was telling the owner how much she liked the restaurant and how she considered it one of her happy places. When he heard this, he brought us out two complimentary glasses of their homemade limoncello. As much as I like other restaurants in Orlando, this is the only one that has ever done something personal like that for us.

Orlando Weekly just came out with their Best of Orlando list. Plenty of recommendations for food, drink and dessert.

This is a bar not specifically a restaurant but I thought it might apply. I just came across this and haven't visited, but it's nice to see themed bars like this popping up outside of the theme parks.
