    Loved SoCo! Only regret was my stomach wasn’t big enough to try everything on the menu I had my eye on which only means I have to come back. The food was delicious. Pricing was fair. The service was great. Easily one of my favorite brunch spots thus far!

    The best meal we had in Orlando! We had 2 small plates (chicken & dumplings and shrimp & cheese hush puppies) and steak BUT the banana pudding alone is worth a visit 🥰 Outstanding!!!!

    SoCo always delivers. We had delicious food with great service in an attractive setting. It was brunch, and the highlight was the French toast tower with all the accouterments.

    We waited 10+ minutes for a waiter to come to our table, 15 more minutes for mimosas. We waited 25 minutes for biscuits, and it took 45 minutes for our food to come out! Multiple tables seated after us were served food before us. Thank goodness for Camillo - he was a saving grace to our experience. The service before he stepped in was awful. And the food was not great considering it took almost an hour for it to come out. As someone visiting from out of town, definitely would not recommend!
