Norman's Orlando

The Write-Up

The full story

Norman Van Aken's flagship at Dellagio on Sand Lake, the room where New World cuisine fuses Florida, the Caribbean, and Latin America. Guests single out the yuca-stuffed crispy shrimp, the blue crab beignets, and a key lime pie they warn you not to skip. The pacing runs leisurely, so treat dinner as the whole evening and let it unfold.
