    Needed a nice relaxing dinner out and The Cellar was perfect. It was a spur of the moment decision and thankful they were able to accommodate us. I had the delicious short ribs special and my husband and the Bucatini Carbonara, always a favorite. Service was excellent; there was a nice bottle of wine being featured and we had a very relaxing evening. Thank you, Lina and staff!

    Top notch high quality restaurant with a knowledgeable host and wine sommelier. One of the most diversified wine lists around Florida. Food quality is always superb. Love this place!

    Enjoyed the atmosphere and that it literally was in a “cellar”! The food was top quality as well as the presentation. Intimate and iconic, it was the perfect date night spot. From appetizer to dessert we thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The only downside was how easily you could hear the conversation of others (who were louder than they needed to be)—but that is not something that can be controlled. Will definitely return. They have an upstairs dining room but it’s not as quaint as being downstairs.

    We are from Minnesota, but my daughter will be moving to Port Orange in March. We stumbled across this place. The food, the atmosphere, and the service were absolutely exceptional. Quaint and charming perfect for a special occasion or date night. Cannot begin to even describe the food, everything made from scratch. Probably the breast bread, butter and olive oil I have ever had. A very special place for sure! Cannot wait to go back:)))

    Outstanding food, excellent attentive yet unobtrusive service, We ate in the ground level dining room which is a bit cluttered looking. Also it was a bit warm and IMO would benefit from lowering the A/C a tad. Overall, one of the very best local dining experiences and we look forward to our next visit.
