"Went for Brunch today and had a really nice time, I 'm from Miami, so I am familiar with this concept. We tried a ton of dishes, some were great, others were not. Restaurant: Gorgeous, I love that the outside dining seems to blend with the inside on beautiful days when the doors can be open. It is a truly beautiful space, the open kitchen is kind of in a awkward area and could be a little more presentable, as every patron has to walk past to take elevator to the restroom located on the second floor. It was kind of a mess when I walked by, but it was Sunday brunch and I 'm in the business, so I get it. Service: Our server was really on par with the menu and eloquent in her explanation of the Bulla concept. I would recommend letting the servers leave the water bottles on the table as the water glasses are super small and need to be refilled constantly, especially at brunch when most are curing a hangover. I felt guilty having to ask for water over and over. This is obviously a very well trained staff, especially by Atlanta standards. The manager came to give us new forks, but left the old ones on the table, which I thought was really weird. Menu: We were informed that the 'bottomless ' Mimosa 's were unavailable even though the menu stated that they were included in the $27 package and is honestly the reason that we went there. The menus are paper, why not just reprint them without that, or just crop them so that the bottom stating that 3 mimosas come with each package is gone. The meats and cheeses we ordered were great, I just wish they had come out with the Pan con Tomate at the same time. There was a large gap in between their arrival. Also ordered the Albondigas, and was informed after 30 minutes they were no longer available. That is a staple in Spanish cuisine and I was disappointed. The Bravas potatoes were the best I 've ever had as well as the Short Rib Montaditos. The benedit was not my favorite, the bread was soggy, and it needed salt and pepper. The Bulla huevos was also not a favorite as it was almost swimming in sauce. The hazelnut waffle was my ending and was crazy good. Drinks: We had **** mary 's, which were very good, but server wasn 't really clear as to which Vodka 's were available, she had to ask and return. Also, they came with just a lime as a garnish, no pepper rim, no olive, they were very tasty, but visually they were just blah. Price: We were three and the bill was $170, but we had a couple rounds of drinks and I think eight dishes. I was shocked at the price, I had expected it to be a lot more, we went overboard a little, so this is a very affordable place in my opinion. I think this is a great addition to the neighborhood and will definitely be recommending to my friends. Also, the PDR 's upstairs are killer with the open air windows and even have a satellite bar for larger functions which I think if handled correctly and by the right person, could be a force for events in the neighborhood."

"You know a place is good when the people inside are smiling and having a great time. Was in Orlando for a couple days and couldn't have made a better decision than going here for dinner. The place was fairly occupied when we were there but the hosts were amazing to guide us through the self ordering kiosks and the ordering counter. The ambience was warm and relaxing, a homey vibe. the windows are big and let in plenty of natural light. They have a courtyard seating adjacent to the main hall. The menu is fairly expansive and covers a range of appetizers and main courses. They have dishes from all over Latin America. We ordered their Pollo Al Horno, which is half bone is roasted chicken, seasoned with thyme, rosemary, garlic and other seasonings. It's a Peruvian dish. There was a choice of three sides. We chose white rice, beans and black beans. We also ordered Sopa De Pollo, chicken soup made with potatoes, carrots and celery, the Dominican way. We paid at the counter and were assigned a number. It wasn't long before our soup arrived. It was served hot in a cast iron pot and wow it was amazing. Having driven for more than five hours, it felt so good to have that warm soup. I really loved the chicken and the potatoes in it. Most chicken soups use chicken breasts and I don't really like them that much but this was different. It had leg quarters and pieces of thighs, with bones,too. The soup really felt wholesome. Next was our Pollo Al Horno. I could tell it was great just by looking at it. The presentation was amazing with the roasted chicken, white rice, boiled yukkas and the salad placed neatly on the plate. It tasted even better than the way it looked. The chicken was just well done with a crispy skin and a succulent meat inside. The thyme and rosemary seasoning were popping inside my mouth. I just felt the amount of rosemary could have been toned down a little and the skin could also have been buttered a bit more, in my opinion. But it was great. The boiled yukkas with the chilli and mint paste was simply amazing. I felt like I had never tasted yukkas that good. This is a great restaurant and if you love Latin American foods or want to add richness to your food experiences, this is the place to go in Orlando. The prices are great too and the servers and hosts are super helpful and amazing."
