534 Scratch Kitchen 534 West Church Street, Orlando, FL 32805

"I can’t think of a better date night. Going to see the circus and then stumbled upon this scratch kitchen. I’m beyond surprised and amazed. The price of these dishes amazes me. As the taste surpasses any limit I’d have. Only thing they could do to improve is open another location in Sanford or Lake Mary, so I could come more often. Love! Love! Love!"

"Sliders were tasty but a lot of bread not much lobster and I bit a lobster shell. Salmon and asparagus was skimpy although the sauce on top of the salmon was actually pretty good the salmon seemed a bit dry. Even after I told him I wanted it cooked medium rare. I guess I can see why the place was empty."

"Ate here for the Bite:30 event and it was amazing. I'll definitely come back after it ends. The portion sizes are the same (with the exception of the pork chop) during Bite:30 as compared to the regular menu. The lobster rolls were wonderful! Signature drinks start at $15... That would be my only criticism."

"So every year, Orlando has a city-wide Taco Week, where all the cool restaurants participate and offer $5 taco specials, along with other taco- and drink-related specials. This year, the week of celebrating is leading up to Cinco de Mayo, which is fun. Well I got tickets to a recent Orlando City game, and 534 is literally like two blocks away from Exploria Stadium, so I decided to stop by here to get my Taco Week tacos this year on my way to the game. The space is inside of a beautiful brick building that has an expansive bar and four or five giant, luxurious wraparound booths. I got seated in one of the booths and my party and I felt like VIP's. Super friendly managers checked on us a few times and our server was one of the nicest ladies I've ever met. Their Taco Week menu was really killer. I had to order three things from it. I started off with their $5, Sticky Asian BBQ Shrimp (2 tacos with sauteed blackened shrimp, green & red peppers, 3 cheese mix, avocado, shredded lettuce, tomatoes). These were the star of the show that night. Whatever sauce the shrimp were sauteed in was sticky and sweet and lovely. Also, I wanna point out that their tacos were in slightly crisped flour tortillas, which is different from everyone going automatically to corn tortillas and I was fine with it. I like flour tortillas just fine. I also had the Meat Lover's Taco (spicy tomato sauce, mozz cheese, layered crispy salami, pepperoni, and blackened ground sausage, sauteed leeks, mushrooms and pico). This was the most unique taco I have ever eaten. I'm not kidding. It was a meat lover's pizza inside of a taco, and I loved it. That's the description. That's all you need to make your decision. I recommend it. And finally I got the Herb Roasted Creole Pork Taco (shredded lettuce, pulled pork, creole pickliz, jalapeno aioli, goat cheese, and avocado slice). The key here is the goat cheese. Pairing different things with goat cheese is somewhat of a passion of mine. And this pairing was a success. Pulled pork and goat cheese. Who would have guessed? Overall, I really enjoyed myself here and the rest of their usual menu looked great, too, so I'll definitely have to come back and check them out again."

"This was a special surprise! They have a beautiful dinning area equipped with a full TOP SELF bar. It's beautifully designed if I must say! The food was spot on. I personally tried there Asian sticky wings. They were cooked to perfection and perfectly sauced. I will definitely be returning. Perfect set up for special dinner or birthday party! Great music and drinks at there sister location next door. From one foodie to another this is a hidden GEM!"
