Selva Rosa

The Write-Up

The full story

Selva Rosa mashes up Mexican and Japanese cooking in Maitland, and the plates land like a party: a birria sushi roll, short rib taquiza, Wagyu picanha and a matcha mojito to wash it down. Guests describe a trendy, magical room with Miami vibes, and food they call superb, balanced and fresh. It is also a loud room, conversation competing with the buzz, which fits the energy.

District Story

The story of Winter Park

A park built for the winter, drawn on paper in 1881, and still legible in every street you walk today.
