Salt & The Cellar is absolutely the best restaurant in all of of Orlando with the exception of perhaps Bull & Bear. Pound for pound I think it’s the best, and I wouldn’t even give it a thought. Book your reservation now, don’t worry about the fact that it’s on 192. When you get to the hotel, and you walk through the front lobby doors, and you walk to the right over to the restaurant, you’re going to walk into the best restaurant in Orlando. And the most amazing food you’ll definitely have anywhere in Orlando, again besides maybe Bull & Bear.

Overall 10/10. Upon pulling-up to the entrance of the Ette Hotel you get the feel of lux vibes. The fragrance that greets you as the double door opens is simply sensational. And the aesthetic of Salt and The Cellar is a perfect complement to the initial impression. As for service, Paul and Naomi provided a top tier experience. They both were attentive, well informed and quite a pleasure to chat with. We will definitely be back. :)
