Nelore Churrascaria, Orlando, Florida

We have always posted our reviews of restaurants on 'Open Table' before now, so I'm going to re-post on here. In future I'll give a little more detail on what we ate and prices etc, but for now I'm just copying in from there!



Nelore Churrascaria
 
After a early afternoon theatre date my husband and tried the newly re-badged Nelore. We love Churrascarias, (if you ever get the chance Fogo de Chao is amazing in Dallas, but it was too late to get a reservation at Texas de Brazil (down the road), so we booked Nelore.. Eating at 5.30 the restaurant was quite quiet, but we saw about 20 - 30 people seated whilst we were there. We had Caprihinas..delicious. The salad bar, although not quite as extensive as TDB, was tasty and fresh ..the cheesy rolls not as fluffy..but they were free flowing! You help yourself to mash and plantains (bought to you in TDB) and the meat was plentiful. $130 for 2 with two coctails and 1 dessert, wait staff were friendly and polite. We'd go again, but only if we couldn't get in TDB!

A Fish Called Avalon

 
We went with my parents who had flown into Miami for our anniversary. After some of the best Mojitos on South Beach we ambled down to the Avalon hotel. The restaurant was extremely busy, but our table was ready on time and we were seated promptly. The fish dishes were outstanding - I had the tuna and my husband lobster, for my parents a grouper & skate ..each one different, each one delicious. The restaurant is buzzing with activity but you are still made to feel special. The cocktails were great here too! and the wait staff friendly, young and well trained. Don't miss the Key Lime Pies - it is famous!!
 
Overall 5/5
