    I recently visited H Orlando Restaurant and I was really impressed! The atmosphere of the place was lovely, and the service was fast and friendly. The food was absolutely delicious, especially the main course and desserts. The presentation was also very thoughtful. You could really tell everything was fresh and of high quality. I definitely plan to visit again and would highly recommend it!!

    Food: Amazing. Love, love , love the queso. Ordered the steak tacos platter with the flour tortillas. So great!! Always yummy. Drinks were made well and the mixed properly. Not watered down. Service: Our server Noeli ( Sorry, unsure of how to spell her name,) was absolutely AMAZING. It was Valentine’s Day weekend but we did not feel like it was at all. She was extremely communicative and very prompt. We have not experienced service this great in quite some time! Absolutely phenomenal. She deserves to be a manager and train new servers in how to execute amazing service regardless of a busy environment. Ambiance: Valentine’s Day weekend. Very busy. There was a bit of a wait even with reservations but it was lovely. There was a DJ on site and it was a great vibe.

    What can I say about this place that others probably haven't already or that i may not have already. This is hands down one of the best restaurants, if not the best, in the Orlando area. Are you going to spend money here, absolutely. Is the money worth it, once again absolutely. From the moment you walk in, you are greeted by a friendly, professional staff who take pride in their jobs. The tables are set perfectly and look immaculate. Within moments the staff are at table side to introduce themselves and get you started on drinks. They come with recommendations, specials, and additions. They pay attention to your questions, body language and requests. They offer alternatives, discuss changes and truly seem like they care. The food, oh the food, seriously, the attention to detail, the portion size and presentation are seriously on par with top restaurants from NY. However, the taste is something else. This food is to quote my SO, "just magical". Each course is better than the previous IMO. I order extra if things sometimes "off menu" if they have it just to bring home. I order two sometimes, so I do not have to share. As well, the accordion player walking to each table to play a song is such a classy and sweet touch. Finally, the manager comes and touches each table to speak to the guests. It creates a warmth and a sense of older restaurants where you want to slow down and savor each moment. I honestly cannot say enough.

    It was my first time at this restaurant on Valentine’s Day at 9pm. It was a wonderful experience with delicious apps/salad bar and unlimited cuts of meat. Our waiter, Walter, was very attentive and would regularly ask if we wanted any specific meats. Within 2-3 minutes, a server would be there to deliver. My girlfriend was impressed by the food and atmosphere and inquired about hosting a corporate meeting. She also appreciated that staff were willing to take a couple of pictures. Valet was a nice plus. I’m glad I chose Chima for this date night and look forward to visiting in the future.

    There is not enough variety on the menu. It is dominated by salted cod. All of the other species of fish are "bone in" which many people don't like. The dishes we had, Lamb and shrimp were quiet good.
