The Ravenous Pig: An American Gastropub - Best Restaurants in Winter Park

Diner Reviews

"Apart from being told by a hostess that I was 45mins late for my reservation and that my table had been given away it was a very enjoyable evening. I had an email confirming 7:15pm from open table, the hostess claimed it was for 6:30pm. Her demeanor made me want to leave but we stuck it out and had a great meal."

"The noise level was extreme, it was difficult to hear the waiter and our party of five had to raise our voice to have a conversation . The menu while in some areas was self explanatory, it should have been stated the rugret ,unsure of spelling, was a fish. It was tasty and fresh . The pork chop was very fatty and only a small portion was edible , for $30-35. All in all a big disappointment ."

" Food was outstanding. The watermelon gazpacho soup as out of this world! I have never had Nything here that I did not love!"

"This is a great restaurant for anyone wanting something truly special for lunch or dinner. I like the fact that, despite it being a foodie-worthy haven, the Ravenous Pig doesn't feel pretentious or stiff. You get the best of both worlds--a comfortable and relaxed setting, along with an extensive beer and wine list (usually only seen in fancy restaurants). I recommend anything on the menu, but I usually get the shrimp tacos (and I hate shrimp!) and the charcuterie platter because both items always knock my socks off!"

"As always they have a very creative menu- but the customer service is always lacking. I always feel like TRP is doing me a favor by letting me eat and pay for food I eat there. They really don't know how to treat customers- as they don't care if you ever return again? At least that is how they treat you. We waited 10 min after being seated before anyone waited on us. To spend $200 on a casual dinner for 2- customer service would be nice!"

"Those not in the know might think the Ravenous Pig is a down home barbeque joint. Far from it! Creative dishes are prepared, presented and served in a softly lit, upscale atmosphere that is neither casual nor intimidating. Servers really know the menu and deftly guide diners through courses and wine pairings. The award winning RP is one of the finest restaurants in Orlando. Luckily for me, the place is not in the tourist section of Orlando but in my neighborhood."

"Decided to give The Ravenous Pig a try, and was not disappointed. From the genuine service, to the the beautifully executed food, this place delivered a very enjoyable night out. I will definitely visit the Pig again!"

"We always have a great time at "The Pig". The food is innovative and the same thought process goes into their cocktails. The servers are knowledgeable about the items and don't have to run to check every time a question is posed. Definitely our "go to.""

"This restaurant did not live up to all its hype, after all it took three weeks to get reservations for a party of six, so we were looking forward to a great dining experience. The food was good, but not great and the portions were small. The service was good. The atmosphere was nice, but too loud for our party. We did not think it was worth the inflated price. None in our party of six will be returning."

"My wife and try to get out without the kids 1-2 times a month and luckily we had been given a gift card to the Ravenous Pig. We had been before and the food and drinks were amazing this time as well. You have to try the Gruyere Biscuits! It came time for the bill and I put down the gift card and my credit card. The waitress came back and said that the gift card was empty. She offered to bring it to her manager to see if he could look up the history. He was unable to find were the card had been used and decided to honor the card and the amount that I told him was on the card. It was extremely generous and you don't find people or establishments like this anymore. So not only do they have great food they have great people also."

"The food was very good. I was a little disappointed that there were no gluten free option so we asked for apples or cucumbers for our spread and you did not have any. That was a little strange that a restaurant would not have apples or cucumber. Todays customers are health conscious and finding restaurants that offer grass feed beef, gmo, soy, and corn free options is very important. Also I look for restaurants that use no oils for cooking, but instead will use real butter and real fat. Thank you"

"I am a foodie and have been to the Pig many, many times and it NEVER disappoints! The food is always incredible, it's so fresh and flavorful. Their charcuterie is the best in the city by far."

"Great place for lunch in this part of town. Valet parking is a great complement. Menu provides good options and food was good. Service was very good and quick. Price is what I expected for this restaurant category."

"I had the pork belly with figs, a falafel salad and shared a fried green tomato starter. Everything was wonderful. The special treat of the night was the blueberry sorbet. I would recommend this restaurant even though it is pricey and the dining area can be VERY noisy."

"Excelente experience. Not fancy, excelente food and service."
Dined on 6/6/2014
"We were very delighted with the food and service at this restaurant. Our server was very informative, explaining the origin of the restaurant and each course option. I would definitely recommend this dining experience for those looking for something different than all the chain restaurants that exist in Orlando."
Dined on 6/7/2014
"Wow...after four attempts over two months, I was finally able to get a reservation, settling for an 8:30PM time. It was worth it for Orlando's #1 restaurant experience!"

"Really enjoyed the unique selection of food as well as the wine selection. The new manager was very friendly to us and made us feel like we were family."

"My boyfriend and I had an 8:30 pm dinner reservation on a Saturday. As soon as we got there we were seated promptly. The ambiance was rustically beautiful and the seating was elegant. The food was superb! We enjoyed the Gruyere biscuits, Shrimp and Grits, Steak Frites, Pork Porterhouse, and blueberry crepes. On the weekends this place seems to attract a lot of boisterous people that love to drink. So if you want a quiet, romantic dinner I would recommend going during the week. Other than that, we love this place!"

"The food at the Ravenous Pig has always risen above the peasant fare that a pub (gastro or not), with a penchant for the pig delivers. Even with the ever increasing popularity of bacon infused farm to table foods becoming annoyingly everyday, the food at the pig continues to evolve as new takes on the favorite shrimp n grits or the snack board, keep things fresh for the fans. Chef Petrakis and his team can be seen at the kitchen window....him, calm and cool as he inspects, garnishes, and occasionally looks up to greet a groupie diner or two-the staff, hustling, beads of sweat captured by bandanas, creating their master's vision. My favorite place is at the Chef's counter where I can taste every dish just by watching what has gone into it..."

"Although there weren't that many people there at noon on Saturday for lunch, our server was absent most of our visit (this was our first time here to boot). He forgot our pretzel order that we decided on for our appetizer. But, the food was good, I will say that. Maybe he was just having an off day. Hoping that our next visit service is more prompt."
Dined on 6/14/2014
"Awesome dining experience. There are only a few items on the menu and every one is a gem. These dishes are made with seasonal, local ingredients. Most of the waiters have been with the restaurant for a long time. Ask the waiter what to get. Most likely, she has tasted everything."
Dined on 6/12/2014
"Outstanding menu -- both food and beverage. A little outside of Orlando, but well worth the drive."

"Relaxing, with food that is prepared where flavors blend into a creative dish that never disappoints. Staff is pleasant and service is top rate."

"Ravenous Pig was just fine. We went for pork fest and were both disappointed with the quality of the meat. Our roast pork was more fat than pork. Because it was pork fest the plates were set. There was a lot of collard greens and peas on our plate and it came with the smallest peach cobbler I have ever seen - the size of a quarter. We probably should have made our first visit on a regular night - won't be in a hurry to go back. "
Dined on 6/7/2014
"We enjoyed our first visit to the acclaimed Ravenous Pig this week. The food (apart from the mediocre Biscuits) was exceptional and the Bacon Old Fashioned was the best version of that classic cocktail I've ever had! The atmosphere is fun and relaxed, although not ideal for an intimate meal due to the high noise levels. "
Dined on 6/6/2014
"We have eaten here several times and have never been disappointed in the quality of food or service. The menu constantly changes but their are several standard (daily) items. Shrimp and grits is a standard and is always great!"
Dined on 6/5/2014
"Creative, yet down to earth food. Excellent selection of raw products combined in delicious combinations. Short but very complete wine list, with very notable selections. Would be back everyone I am in Orlando."

"My wife and I went for our 32 wedding anniversary. We both really enjoyed our dinner, we will return. The food and the service were both fantastic!"

"My wife and I enjoyed a memorable dinner last Saturday. It was our first visit to TRP and I will say it now that we'll be back. From pre-dinner cocktails at the bar to the waitstaff, the overall service we received was top notch complemented our delicious meal. We will be back. "

"The absolute finest establishment I've had the pleasure eating at. From the food to the service, it is completely phenomenal."
Dined on 5/30/2014
"This place has a lot of hype. It was pretty good but nothing compared to the places I frequent at home in Nashville. The ribeye was cooked well but overall the food was bland. My mom had the salmon and it had no flavor. The carrots that accompanied her meal tasted like salt sticks. I was underwhelmed and disappointed. "
Dined on 5/28/2014
"Ambience is nice and the service is very attentive but the food on the other hand was not acceptable. We started off with the Bitter Green Salad Caesar dressed served with a poached egg and bacon. The dressing had no taste, the poached egg was hard boiled, and the bacon you could not cut with a knife it so overcooked. Moving on to small plates. I had Shrimp and Grits served with Ham Hock. The two little shrimp were over cooked and grits was not grits it was polenta. The hammock was dry and again the dish had no taste. My wife had the shrimp taco with avocado. The shrimp were fried nicely and retained their crunch. The avocado was not avocado rather it was avocado mayonnaise and the cabbage slaw was just shredded cabbage. Don't Go"
Dined on 5/27/2014
"One of the best restaurants I have come across in a long time, emphasizing fresh locally grown and caught foods (especially Florida seafood). Sister restaurant's microbrewery options very appealing as well. Not the cheapest by a stretch, but the quality is well worth the price. Service was awesome and well paced."

"I recommend going earlier to really enjoy the bar! Great food and service!"
Dined on 5/23/2014
"This place has amazing rock shrimp tacos that I frankly go there just for them. The bar tenders are very knowledgable but a little aloof. A little warmness and personableness would be an improvement. We've been there several times and it's like 50 first dates where they've never seen us before...but the food and drinks were great."
Dined on 5/23/2014
"Enjoyed by the whole family. We ordered the shrimp tacos, the pub burger, the grouper and the salmon. All dishes were well prepared. Service was excellent even though we had to wait over an hour to get our food. "
Dined on 5/23/2014
"Drove all the way from convention madness to visit what was supposed to be a foodie destination. While lively on a late thursday nite, the rest of the experience was lackluster at best. Ambivalent, service. Smoked fish plate was a dated attempt at minimalist plating - caused a hearty chuckle at the table. Cheddar biscuits were hard and dry (frozen?). I ordered their famous steak-frites. Tasty but under-seasoned and served on the cold side of warm. Fries were nothing special served in pint glass? Also, matchstick is too dainty for a "pub". Wine list was overpriced but the bottle of Spring Valley Cab Franc was a highlight. This place felt like a bait-and-switch given all of its accolades. Had a suspicion that it was the chef's night off. "

"Had a great Dinner the other night to celebrate my parents 40th wedding anniversary. Had some great drinks at the bar then moved over to the table where our server Jason took care of us. Great wine suggestions and as always the food was to die for!! "

"This is the place to go to taste great food creatively prepared. We make it a point to eat here every time we are in the area."
