New Laureate Park
Waterfront Restaurant and
Market to Open this Fall
You can’t beat a family meal. One of the best ways to connect with
loved ones is around the table, sharing good food and conversation.
Of course, some days only allow for a quick bite – or maybe just
coffee and a yogurt on your way to drop the kids off in the morning.
Thankfully, Lake Nona residents will soon be able to experience
plenty of new ways to eat well – in our very own community.
Currently under construction near the Laureate Park Aquatic Center
and future fitness facilities is an original-concept restaurant and
market developed by Atlanta-based Concentrics Restaurants, the
brains behind Winter Park’s Prato and Luma. Our new restaurant
will be one of Central Florida’s only waterfront dining experiences
with an adjacent coffee shop and market, where both food and
a rotating collection of curated products, home goods and locally
made merchandise will abound.
For starters, the new restaurant will feature a chic 300-seat dining
room overlooking beautiful water views. Picture yourself sipping a
handcrafted cocktail on the outdoor terrace or enjoying a casual
dinner with friends in the dining room. The food at this yet-to-benamed restaurant will be a conversation starter in itself. Dinner will
be made with locally sourced ingredients. Chef-driven American
dishes, from innovative culinary creations to house-made burgers
and wild-caught seafood, will be inspired by the best of the season.
It’s all about freshness and flavor, and having a place to take it all in
with family and friends.
For those days when you’re in a time crunch, a market at the entrance
to the restaurant will offer convenient meal options that you can
grab and take with you on the go. Imagine delicious coffee, freshly
assembled salads, hot breakfast sandwiches, and specialty entrées
to serve when you get home from a long day. Another exciting
feature: a community table where you can sit and sip a latté or tea
with your neighbors.
Both the restaurant and market are set to open later this year
as part of the award-winning Tavistock Restaurant Collection
portfolio, which features 14 fine dining restaurant brands across the
U.S., including the recently opened and critically acclaimed Atlas
(atlasrestaurant.com) in Atlanta’s prestigious Buckhead community.
