K Restaurant and Wine Bar is much more than a restaurant; it is a statement in slow food. Owner and executive chef Kevin Fonzo, one of the first in Central Florida to utilize local ingredients as well as a garden out back, is proud to have been part of this movement for more than 11 years. He is also one of the only local restauranteurs to feature a menu that changes as often as the season's fresh ingredients. Likewise, the restaurant strives to create a genuine warmth in the environment and cuisine.
From the spectacular food to the soothing atmosphere, K's sure to impress. For starters, the fried green tomatoes appetizer was piled high with a delicious mix of corn, crab salad and grain mustard dressing. Or opt for the pork belly tacos stuffed with salsa verde, lettuce, pickled onion and tomato. Diners dig into entrees, like the creamy mac ‘n cheese with homemade sausage, roast tomato, green olives, Parmesan and herbs or the wild salmon with asparagus risotto in a lemon vinaigrette. Dessert is a must, so make sure you save room.
You dont have to only show up for dinner. K Restaurant and Wine Bar offers Friday Night Flights on the last Friday of every month for only $20. Wine lovers get to taste six wines that reflect the season.

I’m a writer and a digital diva. In other words, when I’m not writing, I’m shooting photos or video. My favorite travel spots lately include Madrid, for its stunning architecture; Colorado, for its heart-pounding hikes and breath-taking scenery; and the Galapagos Islands, for its sea lions, whales and blue-footed boobies.
