Where to find the best Latin food in Orlando by neighborhood

International Drive and the area around the Florida Mall are the center of Orlando's Brazilian and Peruvian dining. Camila's and Tony's run Brazilian buffets on north I-Drive, Boteco do Manolo adds a bar setting, and Adega Gaucha serves rodizio. Pio Pio and Memories of Peru cover rotisserie chicken and ceviche nearby. Along Kirkman Road, Junior Colombian Burger serves late into the night.

South Orlando and Hunter's Creek have Bandeja Paisa on South John Young Parkway, The Escobar Kitchen, and Aji Ceviche Bar on Orange Blossom Trail. Downtown has Super Rico and a Mecatos shop, while Otto's High Dive sits in the Milk District. Dr. Phillips has Bocas Grill, Lake Nona has Bacán and Pisco, Winter Park has Black Bean Deli, and east Orlando has Soni's Bakery.

What to order at Orlando's Latin restaurants

Each cuisine has a signature worth trying. At Colombian spots, order a bandeja paisa, a platter of meats, beans, rice, egg and plantain, or a bowl of sancocho on the day it is served. Peruvian kitchens are known for ceviche, lomo saltado and pollo a la brasa, the rotisserie chicken found at Pio Pio and Memories of Peru. Cuban menus center on the Cubano, the media noche and pan con lechon.

Venezuelan arepas and cachapas at Bocas Grill, Brazilian feijoada and picanha at the buffets, and Argentine pastries at Soni's round out the range. For breakfast or a snack, Mecatos sells pan de bono with Colombian coffee. Finish anywhere with tres leches or flan, both common across Latin menus.

Tips for eating Latin food in Orlando

Check the day before you go. Bandeja Paisa serves certain soups only on set days and Colombian breakfasts on weekend mornings, Adega Gaucha's feijoada runs on Saturdays, and Otto's pig roast is a Sunday brunch event. Papa Llama is reservation-only, and Pio Pio takes phone reservations for groups.

Buffets and rodizio are best when you arrive hungry and early, when food is freshest. For late nights, Junior Colombian Burger on Kirkman stays open until 4am. Many of these spots are in plazas with easy parking, but I-Drive traffic can be heavy in the evening, so allow extra time if you are coming from across town.
