I have been to both locations multiple times and thought I knew what to expect. (ie: long wait for food even when restaurant empty, frequently out of many menu items, small wine list, etc) We have learned to accept those things as we enjoy the food and occasional drag show. One thing I cannot overlook though is poor customer service.... More

We ordered based on our server's recommendation. We couldn't really decide based on the menu description. We had the stuffed avocado and monkey balls. They were AMAZING!! Only complaint was that there was not reasonably priced wine by the glass. The cheapest was around $15.

We went here on one of our date nights and really really enjoyed it. We always like going down to Pointe as there's a few nice bars in the complex and late night shopping too. The restaurant is dimly lit and very atmospheric. It was pretty quite when we went, no doubt because it was pretty late on and in... More

I visited once with a large group and again on my on. Both times, the service was excellent, prompt and friendly. Rave reviews for the salmon and for the chicken saltimbocca. Comments at the larger gathering indicated the pork main was a bit on the overcooked side. The appetizers were all delicious. I would definitely go back if in Orlando... More

My wife and I were looking for a relaxing casual lunch while in Orlando on International Drive. Funky Monkey was a name too interesting to pass up. Much to our delight the place is somewhat formal inside (dark wood, linen table clothes and crystal glassware) but it also has a very casual outdoor patio complete with umbrellas to shade you...

My wife and I decided to try this place as we were looking for some sushi close to our hotel. We sat at the bar and were given a wine list/menu. Problem one is a wine bar with one page of wines. The wines were all young and overpriced! We asked for a cocktail list and after 10 minutes they... More

We were really pleased with our visit here. Greeted nicely and seated quickly and in a very formal but friendly way. The food that we had was nice and delivered in an efficient way and the price wasn't too bad compared to other places we ate.
