Ravello

I have put off writing this for too long. Selfishly I want to keep it a well guarded secret, however, this is the best culinary experience of Italian Cuisine I have ever had. Fortunately I have caved to a self imposed moral obligation of not being selfish. We have eaten here four times, as of this writing, (it would be more, but we live in New York). Our last visit was with two other families and it is no exaggeration to say we really talked it up pre dining, so much so in fact that my wife and I started to wonder if the actual experience would not meet the high bar we had set for our foodie friends. Once again Ravello rose to the occassion and exceeded everyone's expectations, including our own. We were a group of thirteen people, ranging in age from adults all the way to the youngest of five years old and everyone was raving, not just over the quality of the food, but of the whole experience. No small feat. Outside of going to Italy, this is the most authentic Italian food experience you will ever have, period. The atmosphere, the service, the sense of welcome, the calm, the food. I literally can not put into words the excellence that is presented here. Take the best food from Florence, Tuscany, Torino, perfect it, then present it as only one of the greatest chef's could imagine it to be and there you are. That is what Head Chef Fabrizio Schenardi has accomplished. That is Four Seasons, and that is Ravello. A few of our personal favorites for appetizers are the Polpettine and the Calamari. For main course the kids loved the Margherita Pizza and the Spaghetti. The flour, and many of the other ingredients, are imported from Italy. The pasta and dough are made on site. If you can't decide, we found both the Pappardelle and Bistecca di Manzo to be equally amazing. Actually, choose anything from the menu, there are no weak points. For dessert, order one of everything. We did. It would be an understatement to suggest booking a flight to Orlando just to have dinner. In fact, I'm going to do that.

We went to the breakfast buffet as a group of 4. We made a reservation for the first time slot. It was quiet and peaceful. The staff were phenomenal and informative. The options were plentiful, the food delicious. The hotel is very clean and designed well. It was also neat to be able to drive through Golden Oak to get there.

Ravello at the Four Seasons Orlando for our 2nd of 3 really nice anniversary dinners. Kres with Vedgechef Saturday Ravello tonight Illume at the JW Marriott Bonnett Creek tomorrow They have a vegetarian menu with clearly marked vegan options. They can also work off menu The food is legit Italian. I can’t believe i ordered pasta with red sauce as it brings up ptsd from my teen years as the only thing most restaurants could bother to make. I quizzed our awesome server Francine Q about the dish. For background, i grew up on Long Island in NY and all of my friend’s parents were directly from Italy. Most spoke no English. There were days where we would go from house to house for whatever reason after school and the moms would ask “are you hungry “. That was really not a question. That was a precursor to having plates of food put in front of you and you are going to eat matter what we wanted to do One night I was force fed by no less than 5 very intense Italian ladies. I don’t think I ate for a week after that The incredible at Ravello: Service Francine from Brazil All of the other staff are top notch The pasta and sauce - cooked perfectly. The sauce, while simple, was complex and flavorful. The veggies which I asked to be added, were cooked perfectly! The mango passion sorbet… I was expecting a ball and got a bowl the size of Italy. It was flavorful and not too sweet. We did not order pizza, but it looks like a worthy option. More traditional Italian. The Peach Please a really nice zero proof mix of peach nectar, ginger beer, soda water Great with just a bit of sweetness to counter the tart. I was pleasantly surprised when the bill came I was expecting Four Seasons expensive, it was incredibly reasonable ! What didn’t work They made me a vegan risotto. The rice was cooked perfectly. The veggies on top were excellent! Unfortunately the flavor was not there. It was very bland. Salt and pepper helped, but when Francine asked if I liked it, I had to say no. And I love risotto. I can make it with tons of flavor, but I can see where most chefs may not make up for the missing Parmesan and other flavors from a traditional recipe. The Four Seasons is a beautiful property. Parking is comped with dinner Handicap parking is close to the front door and complimentary We will be back to enjoy Ravello again. #veganfood #Vegan #veganfortheanimals #orlandofoodie #orlandovegans #vegetarian #veganfood #Vegan #veganfortheanimals #orlandofoodie #orlandovegans #vegetarian #veganfood #Vegan #veganfortheanimals #orlandofoodie #orlandovegan #waltdisneyworld #waltdisneyworldresort Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts #4seasons #4seasonshotels #fourseasons #fourseasonsliving #fourseasonsorlando #fourseasonsorl #ravell

It’s that simple, unanimously among 3 friends and steak connoisseurs, one of the best Ribeye in our lifetime. Oh wait a minute… mine personally best of the best meatballs period….in addition to their amazing wine offering, and super knowledgeable Sommelier in central Florida.

Visiting from Hawaii and was treated with the best hospitality and attention to detail I’ve ever had. The food was outstanding, drinks were delicious and the knowledge the staff had on their menu front and back was incredible. Recommendations from our server Francine were amazing and her runners timing was impeccable. A special thanks to Francine and her manager Ben for treating us to samples off of the menu as well. Overall, it was an amazing dinner with great service and definitely a memorable one!

I brought a friend her first her birthday and celebrated it with Ravello’s High Tea! They just started it this year and it was awesome! Everything is baked and created on them promises. The staff are amazing and the violinist I recognized from Disney Springs. His name is Tanner and he is phenomenal!! The tea comes with your choice of tea and they have holiday special flavors. We went with Earl Grey. They bring out the three tier stand with assorted tea sandwich size bites, salmon, caviar, goat cheese, apple and blue cheese, but the absolute best was the desserts! I’ve never had a better macaroon! Each dessert was better than the other and the scones sand fresh cream were amazing. It isn’t the thick clotted cream like in the UK but amazing none the less. The Prosecco was flawless and great in the palette. I can’t wait to go back. My only suggestion is I would prefer something a little more simple like cucumber and cheese or cucumber and butter for those of us who do not eat fish. It was $78 per person and they validate parking.

Very modern Italian spot offering the freshest made in house Italian dishes. I highly recommend the burrata, the Bianca pizza and the conchiglie pasta! Yummy! Overall 10/10 for food & service!

Food was pretty good. Expect big portions if you order pasta. The most best part of this place to me was the service. Really high level of detail and it showed that they cared about each table. Our server was amazing and I liked that you can do half/half on a pizza. The dessert was pretty unbelievable to me. I’m not a dessert person and ate half of it in an instant.
