Foreigner Restaurant

The Foreigner was by far one of the most incredible dining experiences I’ve ever had. I’ve been to many fine dining restaurants, but none compare to what The Foreigner delivers. The flavors, the creativity behind each dish, and the adventurous flavor profiles were unforgettable. The service and wine pairing were truly out of this world. Chef Bruno is a master of his craft — creating an elevated, intimate dining experience that still feels warm and welcoming. It’s rare to find a place that balances excellence and comfort so effortlessly. He and his team deserve all the praise and recognition for their artistry.

Beautiful, delicious, artful, experience. Friendly, unpretentious, yet poetic and elevating. The wine pairings were outstanding. The salad blew our minds and surrendered our palates. The Chef, hostess, and staff were so attentive, with a gentle supportive pampering presence. It was sublime. All the way to the private birthday cake and candle at the end. We will be back. Thank you Foreigner, thank you Chef and team, for making us feel so welcome in your foreign magical land.

We came here for my birthday and it was hands down one of the best dining experiences we've ever had! From the moment we walked in, everyone we interacted with was kind and attentive. Throughout our meal Chef Bruno was there to explain and walk us though every dish. We had eleven courses and every dish was phenomenal, we couldn't possibly pick a favorite. The overall hospitality is unmatched, we cannot wait to dine with them again! Side note- if you enjoy oysters- check out Bruno's Oysters in Winter Garden, always a great variety, and wonderful service!

A terrific fine dining experience at Foreigner. Chef Bruno delivered a well thought out and delicious tasting menu. The black egg is a visual stunner and delightful. I appreciated that the foie gras course was not overly sweat (so often it’s like candy). I love foie gras (if it’s on the menu, I order it) but the dish, even though it looked spectacular, was lacking in flavor and the richness you associate with the dish. Perhaps some salt was needed on the liver? I don’t know…I was expecting this decadent bite, but it was not quite there. The seared for gras, that came with the steak was better. As soon as the tomato and watermelon dish arrived it filled the senses; it was fragrant and a great transition into the lovely pasta course, among my favorites. Cooked perfectly, the shrimp filling was very flavorful. I could have had double the portion. The charcuterie display comes with black bread and butter. Unusual and creative, the bread supports a display of delightful and tasty small dishes packed with flavor. They are not ground breaking but the tastebuds don’t lie. From the two meat courses the rabbit was my favorite. Rabbit is a very difficult meat to prepare. Very lean, it can often be dry. But in the hands of Chef Bruno it is soft and succulent. I think it had some sort of sauce or something rolled inside. Can’t remember but it was expertly prepared. I hope it stays on the menu. Now the steak was good too (I loved the seared foie gras) but more traditional. I think there is an opportunity here to give it a more imaginative twist. But it was solid. The pear and fig baba dessert looked very modern, but I must say I enjoyed the bon bons more. I think the baba was dense. It needed to be moister. The dessert was an underwhelming finish. BUT, the bon bons were just great; perfectly tempered chocolate with delicious fillings. They looked like little jewels and tasted even better. Overall, this is high quality cooking. And I must mention that the dishes are portioned well so you feel full by the end of the dinner (something that is often overlooked in fine dining). I look forward to coming back to Foreigner to see what they do next.

We’ve wanted to dine at The Foreigner Restaurant in Orlando for years, and we finally made it happen for my fiancée's birthday. The experience was absolutely incredible! From the moment we arrived, the staff was warm, welcoming, and attentive. Chef Bruno delivered a masterclass in hospitality, culinary artistry, and storytelling. Every course was a true celebration of flavor and creativity, and the service throughout the evening was flawless. There’s simply no comparison to what we experienced that night. Every dish was outstanding, and we’ve been raving about it to everyone we know. Thank you, Chef Bruno and the entire team, for an unforgettable evening we can’t wait to return!

An unforgettable dining experience! We attended dinner at Foreigner for my birthday, and it absolutely blew us away from start to finish. Every course was incredible, beautifully presented, and full of creativity. The interaction with the Chef and his genuine passion for food made the night even more special. The intimate setting, perfect wine pairings, and warm atmosphere created such good vibes all around. Truly one of the most creative and delicious meals we’ve ever had, this was an experience we’ll be talking about for a long time!

My husband and I have been to The Foreigner for both brunch and dinner and both were amazing. The food is so thoughtful and creative! Chef’s counter setup makes it feel personal in the best way — you can really see how much care goes into every dish. The service is great too — warm, not stuffy. We loved it so much we are returning in January for our birthdays. Definitely one of our favorite spots in Orlando. PS: bring back the brunch!!

The whole experience at Foreigner was unforgettable for us. Having Bruno explaining what went into the dishes at the counter for the first half and then sitting at a communal table with other patrons made the experience feel very special. The ingredients used are top notch. I really enjoyed every single dish. The wine pairing was also top notch. This restaurant is easily one of the top 5 restaurants in Orlando.
