"This restaurant is at the Ritz-Carlton in Orlando & is a gem. The service from Mounir, was outstanding - he helped us with a unique diet we were on and more than satisfied our requirements, as did the chef. Plus he went beyond what was required and produced a beautiful fresh fruit plate which we could also eat. Matt who is the manager of the restaurants, was very helpful and hospitable. It was an outstanding dining experience. Oh ! and the Scallops and Grouper were superb - the best we've ever had and we've eaten these 2 fish all over the world."

"Breakfast buffet is very nice. Will not return for dinner though. Servers made great attempts to make up for the sub par food. Not typical to experience such disappointing dinner in a Ritz."

"Denny's would be a more appropriate name, but I don't want to insult Denny's. The service was slow. Sun in eyes and kids running around everywhere. If you want an expensive meal with sub-par food and terrible service this is your place."

"Very disappointing atmosphere. For a fine dining restaurant, families with very young children acted as though they were at McDonald's. Children were were very loud, sleeping on chairs, dropping items from the dessert bar on the floor. And the staff said and did nothing. I would never go back. To spend money for an expensive meal and be surrounded by a McDonald's atmosphere is insanity."

"Nice option if visiting Orlando (and Ritz/JW Marriott). The food, while not particularly inventive, is well executed and reliable (nice after a long day at the parks or after being stuck in a convention). Also, good wines and very professional "Ritz Carlton" level service. We were very pleased and visited here twice during our vacation. Super kid friendly."

"Went to Vineyard Grille for the Sunday Brunch and it was wonderful.
I agree with a previous patron , this was not a brunch but "a three hour event".
Food, drink, ambience and service were impeccable . I would expect nothing less from The Ritz.
We were so impressed that we are going again this Sunday."

"Not sure if my issue is with Open Table , the restaurant , or both. I booked through Open Table around 3 in the afternoon. At the time I it showed 5:30 or 9:15 as my only options. I booked the 5:30 slot, but would have preferred 6:30 or 7pm. The restaurant was virtually empy at this time. 6pm rolled around and still pretty much empty. 6:30 still plenty of empty tables. We left at 6:45 and the restaurant was filling up but still tables available.
Maybe we should have called them direct for the reservation.

"I loved the complimentry valet parking since the price was so high. You are greeted many times as you make your way to the restaurant. We arrived at 1:30 for lunch and the restaurant decor was very nice. The food was very good.The table for 2 is too small to acommodate the food dishes. My friend's vodka and tonic was sub-par, it didn't even have a slice of lime in it."
