    Have been here several times. Unique andd delicious food offerings. Friendly staff. Love the vibe. A bit loud last night. The belly dancer(!) was unexpected and amazing to watch. If you’re in Orlando you really should check this spot out.

    Very artistic place, the food was amazing. The people friendly ❤️ I would love to come back but the portion of the food is pretty small. 🤣 my friend ordered a steak and it was a bunch of small pieces of meat. Overall we had a good time. The space is very colorful and parking easy to find✨

    We always love Cafe TuTu Tango and today was especially good. We very much enjoyed the thanksgiving buffet. Great food and our server went out of her way to make our dining experience that much better. This may be the first of a new thanksgiving tradition for myself and my husband.

    Amazing food! All you can eat great value for such amazing food! The turkey, pork tenderloin, and NY strip was great, and so were the side dishes, which included potatoes, candied sweet potato, and anything from the regular menu. We enjoyed our family time and had a great time looking at all the art work in the restaurant.

    Had a brunch date with my sister while visiting the Orlando area. This was a very fun, funky and delicious experience! Some misses with the food, but not due to poor description or plating, a couple of items just weren't for my palate. But for the most part, food was delicious, service was good, and the ambiance was eclectic with a contortionist performing. I would definitely go back my next time in town!

    Second time to Tu Tu Tango. We were visiting last year and had a great meal so came back. The highlights were the sesame steak skewers, jerk chicken skewers, dynamite shrimp, black bean hummus with soft pitas,marinated cucumbers, Cajun chicken egg rolls, and cauliflower taco. All had delicious flavor! Our waitress provided very good service and all her helpers delivering dishes were so friendly. The atmosphere is fun and lively. The unexpected stunning belly dancer was fantastic! Helped made our evening even more enjoyable. We will be back! Thank you!

    I've loved this place for years. I brought my friend for her birthday celebration. It was crowded and the music was way too loud. We sat outside and it was hard to hear each other. Inside seemed even louder. The food was fine, but not exceptional. We had the bottomless brunch and I am in no hurry to return. The bill included a 3% charge for "Employee Benefit Surcharge". Not sure what that is, but not cool.

    Cafe Tu Tu Tango - OrlandoResponded on November 15, 2023

    Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us your feedback, Cheryl. We apologize we were unable to create a five-star experience. Regarding the 3% surcharge, we cover 100% of our employees’ health benefits, which is unique in our industry. Due to the rising costs, we were compelled to apply this surcharge rather than changing those benefits. We’ve also chosen to be transparent with our guests and implemented this surcharge rather than raising our menu prices, which can be more costly. We hope you will give us another opportunity to serve you.

    Overall, the restaurant was a lot of fun. However, the portion sizes were extremely small - even for traditional tapas. Likewise, the music was so loud that we were unable to have any conversations at the table. Even the server commented that it is too loud in the restaurant.
