Lamp & Shade Craft Kitchen and Cocktails is Mills area’s newest dining and nightlife concept. Playfully yet eloquently named, Lamp & Shade Craft Kitchen and Cocktails got its inspiration from the idea to ‘hangout and throw some shade in conversation’ while paying homage to the history of its building, previously The Lamp Shade Fair, well-known by locals for over 50 years. The Asian-influenced tapas style menu showcases seasonal and local provisions of the Orlando community in innovative dishes that Executive Chef for Thriving Hospitality, Ryan Stewart, has meticulously developed.Lamp & Shade's comprehensive beverage program features riffs on tiki classics tying back to the influential Asian roots of cocktails, pairing nicely with Chef’s selection of Asian inspired faire.

    The food is very high quality. The home made pasta is delicious. I loved the sweet potatoe gnocchi, it is stuffed with burratta and in a delicious cream sauce. The Pear Ravioli is amazing (reminds me of a dish from Florence). I have also enjoyed the arrabiata pasta (spicey) with a side of meatballs. They offer a choice of a prefix menu which is about $60 pp or you can order alacarte. Everything I have had is very tasty and I crave their homemade pasta often. My only con is it can be very expensive place to go as a family for dinner, we are a family of 4 and it was just shy of $200.

    Cafe-Boutique Piano has become my favorite go-to restaurant in Winter Park. The food is consistently delicious. Everything is cooked to perfection and beautifully plated. The servers are attentive and very helpful. Polina, the owner is usually there. She understands the business and all the nuances of a successful restaurant. The European cafe decor and atmosphere is cozy and comfortable. At night, the lighting creates an intimate atmosphere perfect for a date night or special occasion. Aside from being an outstanding restaurant, folks who must be GF will find the menu has numerous wonderful options. Cafe-Boutique Piano is a little jewel in Hannibal Square.

    Great place to go before a concert at Camping World Stadium- especially if you are catching the downtown shuttle to the venue. Small bites and great happy hour.
