We spent Valentine’s Day at Knife & Spoon and had the most beautiful evening with my husband and my daughter. The service was honestly on another level. Every single person we interacted with was kind, attentive, and just genuinely amazing. You can feel when a team truly cares, and they absolutely do.

The food? So incredibly delicious. Everything we tried was outstanding. You can taste the quality in every bite. We didn’t get to try as many dishes as we wanted, which just means we’ll be coming back very soon.

Such a special experience. Highly recommend. Five stars without question.

The overall dining experience was pleasant. The service was attentive and professional, and the meal flowed smoothly from start to finish. However, while the presentation and atmosphere were refined, some dishes lacked balance and depth of flavor. The mushroom dish was overly salty, parts of the grilled fish had a slightly bitter taste, and the salad had a grainy texture — it was unclear whether it came from fine salt or actual sand. Overall, while the experience was enjoyable, the flavors and execution still fall short of Michelin-level refinement.

The restaurant is located between the JW Marriott and the Ritz-Carlton, with its own entrance or access through the hotels. The décor is modern and sleek, nothing over the top, but it definitely has a high-end feel and the prices reflect that.

We ordered the tuna & foie and the Hamachi as starters, followed by the wagyu picanha frites and the pappardelle bolognese as our main dishes. The food was good, but to be honest, I expected more flavor and better execution.

The pappardelle came with a meat sauce, but it was dry, there was basically no moisture or richness, which is disappointing for a bolognese. I mentioned this to the waiter, and he told me he would inform the chef, but that was the end of it.

They also didn’t have spicy oil, so I asked for cayenne pepper mixed in oil as an alternative.

It’s not a Michelin-starred restaurant though it is mentioned in the guide but in my opinion, it doesn’t live up to the hype. I actually preferred Primo at the JW Marriott much more.

The only reason I didn’t give it a 5 star is the decor of the restaurant, I didn’t feel like I was in an upscale place it felt more like a resort restaurant than a 5 star restaurant. The service was impeccable ,the breads were amazing, the small dishes that are complimentary were very good. The entree of Hamachi though very small had amazing favors. The house special aged steak was perfectly cooked. I didn’t really like the chocolate desert it was a bit dry, I would prefer a flower less cake dense accompanied by the mouse and the thin chocolate paper. Pricing is a bit high. Other than that good experience.

This is good option in Orlando. The ambiance is elegant but quiet. The food is good quality, but nothing imaginative. The bread service is a nice touch. I am surprised by the Michelin Star. There is nothing here that you can’t get at a lot of other places.

Absolutely amazing! They just keep bringing little things out to you at you. It’s absolutely amazing… The lamb is the best I’ve ever had in my entire life
And the fact that they have such a variety of aged beef is amazing. When I go there I can’t stop thinking about it for days..

The food was AMAZING. Shocking that a restaurant this good is nestled inside a resort hotel. The Dutch dining room manager treated us like royalty. One of the best meals I’ve had this year

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A Truly Exceptional Stay

We had an incredible experience at the JW Marriott Grande Lakes while celebrating my partner Scott’s 60th birthday. From the moment we arrived, the service and hospitality were outstanding. Scott has spent years in luxury hospitality leadership, and this stay genuinely met—and exceeded—his expectations.

A special shout‑out to Steve from Security Management, whose professionalism and kindness made a memorable impression.

We also dined at Knife & Spoon, and it was phenomenal. The atmosphere was warm and refined, the service flawless, and the food exceptional. The team made the birthday celebration feel truly special without ever overdoing it.

Thank you to the entire staff for creating such a memorable experience. We can’t wait to return.

We had a spectacular experience at Knife and Spoon! We stayed at the Ritz and they were kind enough to seat us without a reservation. The service was above and beyond; very friendly and helpful wait staff. The food was so sophisticated and their culinary expertise truly shined with every detail of the meal.

Their caesar salad was the best I’ve ever had and the pappardelle meat sauce was so flavorful, like it had been slow cooking for days. We enjoyed so many complementary tastes, including an amuse-buche, a birthday dessert, and another small dessert bite post-dinner. 10/10 recommend and will definitely be returning!!

This may have been the best overall restaurant experience we have ever had! The service was absolutely amazing. We had 3 servers attached to our table. Our main server, Julian, was perfectly attentive. He was never intrusive, but never missed a need. He guided our meal expertly. He assistants we professional & intentional in everything they did. The craft cocktails were original & balanced. The food was incomparable!! We started with the Crab Rice which you don’t want to miss. I had the Bolegnese & my husband had the Whole Fish. Both were delicious. We shared an Orange Souffle for dessert which was an absolute showstopper!!! I also received a special complimentary birthday dessert which was a Matcha mousse filled with Lychee cream topped with a sheet of white chocolate. All divine!!! There were other treats & surprises which will delight you as they did us!!
