K Restaurant & Wine Bar
2401 Edgewater Dr, Orlando, Kissimmee,
Apr 2007-For the pricing on the menu, I expected fine dining. Entrees range $25-$30. We were greeted by a curt host, followed by an equally impersonal waiter. I ordered the vine ripened tomato salad to start. What came out was a small tomato cut in quarters over goat cheese that was in desperate need of salt. I could buy better tomatos at Publix, but instead I paid over $10 for a small tomato, a few pine nuts and micro greens, which were definitely micro. I also tried the lump crab cake and the bison. Whatever lump crab was in the cake was overpowered by the raw red onion on top (on the menue as apple and fennel slaw). Hours after the meal I'm still tasting the onion. The bison, ordered rare, was so tough my jaw is soar. While the flavor was good, the meat itself was far from tender and certainly not worth the $30 price tag. Service was poor and overall the dining experience was lackluster and not of value. Other reviewers say it's the friendliest wait staff in town...they must have been off the night I was there. I'm glad I didn't bring friends and I would certainly not recommend it to others.

Le Coq Au Vin
4800 S Orange Ave, Orlando, Kissimmee,
Anyone who thinks the food here is anything but horrendous has never eaten French food. The pate was like what I imagine cat food tastes like, the main dishes were too salty, and the souffle too eggy. So far the most edible French food in town has been at Paris Bistro.

PF Chang's China Bistro
436 N Orlando Ave, Winter Park, Kissimmee,
I had the chance to go to P F Changs in Winter Park, Fl. My wife initially told me that I should go and since I am a picky eater and do not like to try many things, I had resisted. I must say that I give the restaurant five stars for service and food. I tried the Kung Pao chicken as well as the ribs. I had the cheese cake for dessert and had to share it with my wife. We both enjoyed it. The waiter was on the spot at appropriate times to take care of anything that we needed. Since we were out with a large group (approximately 14 people for a birthday party). I thought that it was impressive that he could handle so many demand (which included five small children) and got help only when he needed it. I was happy that I got the chance to go and look forward to going again.
