My wife and I and our 6.4 lb yorkipoo Bella ate here last night. We shared an ahi tuna appetizer that was a special. Waitress brought plenty of bread and olive oil. Wife had shrimp(grilled) and home made pasta, I had the chicken wrapped in bacon stuffed with cheese and 3 dollops of mashed potatoes, both house specialties. Both plates...

Description: Growing up one of 5 children in a tight-knit New Jersey family, Chef John relished the chance to work in the kitchen with his European grandmother, and it was from her that he developed his deep affection for Italian cuisine.
He cites his opportunity to work alongside Master Chef Giuseppe Formica at Hotel Giardino, in, Pesaro, Italy, as having a profound influence on his culinary philosophy.
Here at his popular upscale restaurant on Italy’s Adriatic coast, Chef John learned the delicate art of making pastas, breads and pastries a mano, and gained a finer appreciation for the importance of freshness, quality and simplicity in Italian Cuisine.
Chef John’s love of food is enhanced by his engaging personality and his love for people. Dine at Café Murano and discover a friendly welcoming atmosphere, an amazing meal and a longing to return.

The food was good with generous size portions. There is outside seating that overlooks Crane's Roost Park and also a bar scene if that interests you.

Great location, nice view of the lake, near everything. Wonderful food (wood burning oven!) and very friendly, courteous professional staff, reasonable prices. Add LIVE MUSIC to the mix and you have a terrific place to dine, dance and enjoy (although the bar area is very crowded and noisy with a very small dance floor - but it works). We like...

Went last night on a bit of a whim. There was one table left outside and we were able to snag it. The view was so great! The sun was just going down, a soft breeze, nice and cool, no mosquitoes! Our server was super nice and friendly. We ordered drinks and an appetizer right away. Which leads to the...

I was there several months ago and I believe the food was better. They have very little fish in the menu.
What really turned me off was the staff, although the waiter was nice enough he was sweating profusely and it is not a good thing having somebody serving your food with heavy perspiration dripping all over their faces. Also...

I love this place but when I ordered their Shrimp scampi I was thoroughly disappointed. The only thing that tasted good were the shrimp. The pasta was drowning in a lemon sauce that completely ruined the meal. I must say though, that their sauce on the lasagna that my husband had was excellent. And the setting is wonderful. There is...

Stopped by for lunch today and was impressed with the overall service and food. Nice outside deck that overlooks Cranes Roost Park Lake. Nice variety on the menu for lunch. The dinner menu has a larger variety and looks worth a visit. A bit pricey for lunch, but the food was worth it. Give it a try if your n...

I found this place while doing a quick search in Google around the hotel I was staying at (the Hilton in Altamonte Springs) it is conveniently located directly across Altamonte Drive from Northlake Boulevard. I called ahead and made a reservation just in case. It was a...
