    Every dish is incredible and the chef will work with any allergy or food preference. I have brought vegans and vegetarians here and that have said that Cress has the most flavorful offerings.

    Chef Hari Pulapaka's dedication to sourcing local quality food has placed him among those chefs who are identified as a leaders in Central Florida of the movement known as New American Cuisine.

    Chef Hari is in Louisville KY today for the James Beard Foundation's Boot Camp on Sustainability. He is one of only 15 chefs chosen for this committee. GREAT JOB.

    Crazy refined flavors and wonderful wines. Their focus is on local and seasonal ingredients. Great night out.

    Although we had very high expectations for the food, based on the many reviews, it was just good but by no means supurb. It was marred by the odd, neurotic behavior of the staff, which was off-putting
