We visited on a Friday night and it was very busy but we managed to get a table. Our server was very friendly. The fresh baked bread & oil was wonderful. Our drinks were great and it was happy hour so they were half price. Our pasta dishes were so, so delicious! I cannot wait to visit again!

I walked in and no one greeted me, but our server was attentive. The ambiance is calm and quiet. As for the food, it was delicious, but not my favorite Italian food. Even though the food presentation was beautiful, I would've liked a bigger portion size for the cost. Overall score: A-

Came here for dinner and got the Pineapple Express cocktail and for my entree got the chicken rollatini. Everything was delicious and love the location in cranes roost park

It was a rehearsal dinner. And so it was a set menu. But everything was delicious. The staff was very helpful. The tiramisu was awesome!

A work friend of mine planned a retirement party for two of our coworkers this past Saturday night and let me tell you how good this place was. They provided us with some good eats while we sat around some high top tables ordering drinks. Some of the apps we had were meatballs, chicken tenders, mozzarella and sliced tomato's with balsamic vinegar, two types of pizza (margarita and white), and shrimp. Everything there tasted wonderful. Thank you for providing such an amazing atmosphere for our two ladies taking their next steps into retirement land! "They're your tastebuds. Satisfy them!" -Allan Delacruz

Whether it's lunch or dinner, Cafe Murano's is wonderful! A bit too dark inside unless you sit at the windows, but the ambiance is still good. Can be very romantic in the evening. Their food is homemade, mouthwatering delicious, and never disappoints. Oh, they also have great pizza ! The service is always impeccable. They have a very large bar and a couple of TV's for the sports fans. Plenty of very pleasant outdoor dining where you can enjoy the view of Crane's Roost Lake. Plenty of parking. If you have never been before, once you try this delightful restaurant, it will become one of your regular dining spots.

The food, the service, the setting all contributed to an amazing experience as usual.

Walked in with my coworkers and were immediately seated. The place was a bit dim but warm and cozy. It was chilly outside, so the warmth was appreciated. Our server was so friendly and attentive to our table. Everyone finished eating at different times and she would be there to remove the plates and silverware. Now down to the food I tried their grilled chicken and spaghetti with just the sauce. The chicken was juicy and perfectly seasoned. The pasta was al dante. I will be back to try their fresh mozzarella. I seen some being carried to other tables and they looked amazing. I will be back for sure. Thank you for such a great experience.

My husband and I came here on a Wednesday evening with only about an hour to eat at dinner time. We were greeted and served immediately by a very friendly hostess and waiter. There was plenty of seating inside, a large bar area and outside seating overlooking Crane's Roost. The food selection was extensive, with daily special options. They offer bread with oil prior to the meal, which my husband loved. I enjoyed the bread, but thought the oil lacked herbs and was too oily. We ordered the date appetizer for something different. It tasted pretty good, but looked a bit funny, and my husband thought it had too much sauce on it. We both enjoyed our main course selection and ate it all without taking any home because it was so delicious. The cost was reasonable for the food we ordered, and the service was fabulous from beginning to end.

My husband and I have been wanting to try Cafe Murano ever since we spotted it from the AMC parking lot across the street. When we finally did try it, my husband exclaimed, "Why haven't we been here sooner?!" Cafe Murano is among the many shops and restaurants that surround Crane's Roost Park in Altamonte Springs. They offer indoor and outdoor seating and have both a front and back entrance. The decor is what I call New York Italian. Meaning, it's reminiscent of decor you'd see in Italian restaurants in New York City. Our server, Cole, was excellent. He gave great suggestions, checked on us often and made sure we were happy. Our meal began with complimentary bread and herbed olive oil. It was so good that we gladly accepted more when offered. My husband had a side Cesar salad (you can get it with or without anchovies - he chose without) and I had the house side salad. Both were fresh and a good way to prepare our pallets for our entrees. I had the chicken della casa and made my husband try it so that he could try to recreate the dish. My husband chose the house special: a NY strip steak with garlic butter and sautéed mushrooms. It came with delicious (I know because I tried them) smashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. A well-rounded dish that my husband enjoyed. We were full but also wanted to try one of their delicious-looking desserts, so we chose the Limoncello cake. It was light, lemony and just what we were looking for. We most definitely will go back to Cafe Murano!
