Ace Cafe in Orlando - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Closing permanently per WFTV report, May 29, 2023.

Great place to hangout with friends!

Have been coming to Ace for a decade. Great staff & FANTASTIC car events. Sad to hear its closing. You WILL BE missed 🩷

We reserved dinner for a group of 40 at the cafe. Mostly couples and a handful of singles. These people wanted to do 1 check for us all and tried to tell us they would not be able to separate it. After about 20 minutes we decided that we were leaving... ok we can separae by parties.

Always a great vibe here! No complains whatsoever.

I am giving a 1 star because the bathrooms were filthy and looked like they werent cleaned for months. There was no paper towels, the stalls were broken, the sinks were filthy, the toilets had dirt caked on the bottoms and the seats were extremely dirty, the shelves and surfaces of the toilets and urnials were full of dust and dirt. The food was delicious and our server Austyn was an amazing server and very humble and would give a 5 star to the food and service but the issues with the bathrooms i can not justify giving more than a 1 star. If the bathrooms are so horrible i cant imagine the kitchen and if i wasnt so hungry i would have not eaten here.

Buenísimas las exposiciones de vehículos muy entretenido y buen ambiente

Staff is quite personable. The atmosphere is wonderful and seems very fun and Lively. Definitely would love to come a bit earlier to try out the food. The bartender was wonderful and attentive.

Great food, and the wait staff was super friendly.

Had an overall pleasant experience eating at the Ace Cafe. Food was tasty however wait times were longer than normal. To be fair the waitress did alert us of a estimate wait time which was nice. The wings were tender and sauce was super flavorful.

Went for a show here and will definitely come back.. It was nice venue especially for some dubstep

Great place to have a beer, burger and enjoy good music .

Great breakfast during weekends. Lunch is quick and fast all days. Traditional American food

Decent food and service, kinda lame as a motorhead venue, could be cool if the owners turned it up a notch or two.

Awesome place, will bist again when in town

Had not visited in a few years, but went back for a car show. I feel like they have revamped the menu, we had the chicken and waffles and the kickin shrimp, both were excellent! Go for the car shows, stay for the food!

Poor communication with fans at Drive By Truckers event. Fan line to get into the building was out to the railroad tracks behind building. Overall C- rating.

Service was very slow. Food was good

y’all…the brunch was not it. the shrimp and grits were soooo soupy, and the breakfast skillet looked like a whole tomato-y mess. 😭 I’ve heard the lunch and dinner food is better - skip the breakfast lol

Went for the canna-land and bike event. Good vendors

Love love e lo e the French toast. It is actually soaked in goodness. Even the leftovers are good. Highly reccomend the brunch

Good food, service was a little slow. It was not to busy. Awesome layout and atmosphere.

Ok so I slide out to Ace for this random show on April 8th, they did a full indoor stage takeover, it was awesome 😎 would definitely go to any events at ace if Ms trippys emporium was the host! They had a wicked cool games trailer out front with PS5,Xbox and more. Then also the ace staffm was amazing. The food was phenomenal. 10:10 recommend

Great experience went for a car meet ended up getting some good food and great customer service.ty team

Nice environment. We went because of Bike night meet and we drove our car. We took our baby in the stroller. Its really nice to see so many beautiful motorcycles of different categories and colors. I saw friends i haven't seen in year's. Excellent meet by ACE Cafe 👍 Thursday Night Bike Meet. A +++

First time here. Came to check out a car meet. While we were here decided to grab a bite to eat. Ordered a Philly cheesteak $15. Philly was a rip off as it was only half a sandwich with fries. $15 for a half of sandwich??? Crazy. And sandwich was ok, not $15 good. Had better. Won't eat here again.

I was quite disappointed with my recent experience at ACE Cafe. We arrived 1 and 1/2 hours early in an attempt to get in and out to make it to an appointment afterward. We were promptly seated and our drink orders taken. That was the best of the service received that day. Once our food orders were taken, the service declined quickly. We sat watching others that arrived after us get their food orders. I requested one of the managers (I failed to get his name) to check on our order. He never came back to give us an update. However, he gave a table of two woman personal service, delivering their food and sitting at the table engrossed in conversation. The person who greeted us was the host, bartender, and server. Bless his heart. We sat, waiting almost an hour for our food to come out. We contemplated just leaving and finding a fast food restaurant to ensure we made our appointment. Once the food arrived, it was not hot AND not prepared correctly. A couple of burgers came well done and dry, which was not how they were ordered. We left disappointed and still hungry. We had patronized this establishment many times and had never had such a bad experience. Once is enough for me.

Awesome place, once in awhile they have car meets

We go here for the car shows, very good ambience and nice people! Great place to socialize and have good finger food. Recommended!

Best motorcycle spot ever I went there Thursday night at 8 it was packed I’m glad I found this place I’ll definitely be back

I took a couple of days to write this review because I didn’t want to type something I would regret posting. Now that some time has passed, I can honestly say that I’m still very mad and upset with my very first experience with Ace Cafe. I have passed this place often when driving on I-4 and always had an interest in checking it out. The concept seems very cool and they are highly rated on Google. To say that I was very excited to finally come here is an understatement. I came here for a team lunch. We arrived at 11:15am with the intention of leaving by 12:45pm. Upon entry, I noticed how empty it was. Only one table was occupied with a party of 6. I thought to myself “Okay, yeah. We should be good.” We ordered our food and slowly more people started coming in, whether it was being seated at the table or at the bar. These parties seated after us started receiving their food before us. Mind you, we are only a party of 5. We couldn’t find our waiter because not only was he a waiter, but he was also the host, food runner, and bartender. All this time while this man is struggling to deal with an understaffed and backed up kitchen, I see two managers sitting around idly on their phones or talking to “more important people”. It was so ridiculous that we were ready to walk out of the restaurant. By a string of luck, our food finally arrived at our table after an entire hour of waiting. My burger was burnt and cold. The bun was hard and dry. My coworker’s fish and chips was huge in portion, but it was served with raw batter and an undercooked fish. It was disgusting. Also, they were out of stuff from half their menu. No tortilla soup, flatbreads, and they were even out of RANCH! We got no apology. No discount. No comped meals. No nothing. This has easily made it to my top list of worst restaurant experiences. You could blame the economy and not being able to staff people, but that doesn’t forgive the fact that there should’ve been open communication on how long it would take to get 3 burgers, a cold cut sandwich, and one order of fish chips. It doesn’t deny the fact that people were getting their food first just because their a party of 1 or were part of some important sales tactic. If the management team continues to be this pathetic, I will never be coming back here again.

Amazing place to see some cool bikes and have some drinks and enjoy delicious food 😋 Don't forget, everything Thursday is the bike night 😌😎🏍️🛵🏍️🛵

Love the events at Ace Cafe and they have great drinks. Haven't tried the food yet.

I've been going here since 2020. The burgers are great, and the other food is solid. Great motorcycles and accessories to look at. Pool tables, but I rarely see anyone playing. It's very clean, friendly staff. I think some folks may think it's a rough joint because of the bikes and leather, but it's tame and fun. Go! Shove some meat in your face and wash it back with a cold drink.

My favorite place in orlando on Thursdays

Very friendly staff there food is good as well love going to ace for the bike night and jeep night as well

My husband and I went there with our family and I definitely recommend it to anyone honestly. Great ambiance, coffee was bomb and the service just perfect. Thank you guys!

The establishment is nice but never have enough space for any of the events that they book it saddens me to say this but I just feel like over the past few years it has just been a let down

Great ambiance with lots of different events happening almost daily that makes it an awesome place to experience new things. Awesome brunch with bottomless Mimosas and Bloody Marys with a great selection of brunch foods as well. My new go to brunch spot.

Quick lunch meeting with friends. Great meals all around, and the atmosphere was great. Will have to return in the evening.

Something going on almost every day. Check the event calendar and enjoy!

Food service was way too slow. Onion soup is very salty. Music was way too loud

It's got the best atmosphere and the staff is great

Arrived from South Africa and 6 of us travelled from Daytona, (on our Harleys) specifically to visit in Ace Cafe in Orlando. Took them 15 minutes to acknowledge that we were at the counter. Then took us to our table. 10 minutes later they told us it would take at least an hour to bring our food to us. We decided to skip the meal and leave. However, we decided to buy a memento purely to say we had been there. Cut long story short, it took us 25 minutes to receive the pin we had already paid for, but no one could no one could find the keys to unlock the cabinet. Our experience at Ace Cafe in London was wonderful and that prompted us to visit Orlando. I do not know who owns this franchise in Orlando, but it should be withdrawn because they are an embarrassment to motorbike owners and lovers of the Cafe Racing culture worldwide.

El bar tiene un buen ambiente y colocan buena música pero a la comida le pondría 0 estrellas si pudiera. Las hamburguesas no sabían a nada, ni me la pude comer completa. Decepcionante.

Waited 16 minutes for a server to finally arrive and then waited 35 minutes for a appetizer that never showed up. Not to mention most of the staff were rude. Got up and left. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else where you can actually get food

We came here after visiting the most recent vintage market that they had next door. We were seated right away and greeted by a very rude waitress. She took our order right away (we got menus first and had decided what we wanted to eat before the waitress had visited us) and eventually brought our drinks. My husband and I each ordered a sandwich and waited literally an hour before we decided to get up and leave. Our waitress came to our table ONE time in an hour to refill my husbands water and said “I’m trying okay” before storming off. We hadn’t said a word to her or stopped any of the wait staff. She just naturally had an attitude with every table she had. Unfortunately I’ll never get to try the food here because the service was so terrible.

Absolutely amazing environment clean safe and lit as can be on Thursday nights. #bike life.!

Ponto de encontro dos amantes de motores, em ambiente descontraído, com ótimas bebidas e comidas. Conta com bar, restaurante e ambientes para descontração, tais como salas privadas para reuniões com amigos e mesas de sinucas.

The location for car events is magnificent, good environment and atmosphere...

Ace had delicious burgers. We absolutely loved their fries. There were many people at the bar to talk with and the manager even showed my husband around this large establishment. Plenty goes on during the evenings every night with various cars clubs. Check their venue and take your car out. You can find good food and new friends here.

Great food, bartenders and atmosphere! GM night on Wednesday had some nice ZL1's, Camaros SS and Corvettes of all ages.

Was not very impressed with this place. Food was just OK for a $15 sandwich. Service was horrible. Hostess was very rude. They closed bathrooms downstairs, but had no sign up for additional bathrooms. While a group of us were trying to figure out what to do, she came over and yelled at us for trying to use the bathrooms because she unlocked the ones upstairs. Maybe put some signs out next time. Our waitress was not very attentive to our table. We had to ask for all our refills, unless it was a beer! They also tried to charge us for parking because of an event next to the restaurant, had to explain we were just going to eat.

Best location for Thursday night Bike night. Come with friends and you might just make some more!

There is no place like Ace Cafe! The meets are amazing! The staff is so nice and friendly and the food is delicious! I LOVE their chicken and waffles😍 Ace Cafe is definitely a staple in the car and bike community and I am extremely grateful that we have an establishment like Ace Cafe where we can go to have great vibes, great eats and great drinks!

Food is okay. Drinks are good and a decent selection of cocktails. Service takes a while even on slower days/times. Atmosphere is cool if you're into cars. They have car meets all the time.

I go almost every Thursday for their bike night. Typical Downtown bar. Food is delicious but a bit $$

Love the car and bike nights but wish the parking lot was a little bit more lit but besides that's I definitely recommend going to bike night if you want to see a lot of awesome bikes 🏍

We went on Porsche night and the place was way under staffed. Waited forever for service and then she was slow between checking on us. Took our drink order and appetizer order and we were done with appetizer before she got our entree order. Food was just basic. If you are coming to see cool cars and motorcycle it's great but there are better food option within easy walking distance

I would give this 0 stars if I could. Terrible service. Sat down at the bar (which was not busy at all) and all three bartenders never once came to ask me for a drink/food order or if I had been helped. A guy sitting across from me noticed my frustration and asked if I hadn’t been served either. He mentioned he had been waiting for over 15 minutes to get service. He decided to just leave without ordering and wished me luck. After waiting for about 30 minutes at the bar I just got up and left without spending money here. How do you have such an empty cafe and so many bartenders/hosts not actively trying to give out service/ask for orders? Will not be back.

Liked the smoked wings! Tasty and hot. I also recommend the garlic parmigiano topping.

Come back again? I don't think so. While wandering around downtown Orlando, I came across the Ace Cafe. It was lunchtime on a Sunday, and the restaurant had just opened. I told the seating hostess that I would like a table for lunch, she scrunched up her face and said "the bar would be your best bet". So I went up a flight of stairs to the bar. The chairs were exceedingly uncomfortable, and my legs lost feeling as I waited 45 minutes for my burger to be prepared. When it arrived, I was immediately struck by how there must be a french fry shortage, as there were only about 15 fries on the plate (see picture). I pointed the small portion of fries out to the bartender, and he did arrange for more fries to be brought out sometime later, but had I not asked, I'm sure that no service recovery would have been attempted. On my way out, I asked the seating hostess why she had recommended that I sit at the bar, and her answer indicated that it was for the restaurant's convenience, and not mine, as they were expecting a large crowd that had not materialized. My visit was made uncomfortable and unpleasant so that the hosts could have an easier work experience. I quietly explained that it is unlikely that I would ever return to the Ace Cafe.

The food was incredibly over priced and below average tasting. The vibe is great and that’s what sells it but don’t come here for the food.

Love this place!! Enough said.

Great place to eat, look at cars/bikes/etc., and hang out with friends.

3 stars removed because host took our name & number and said 15 min wait. After 45 mins, I go ask how much longer and he's like oh we can sit now. I ask to buy a T-Shirt, same guy says no problem will bring it to your table and never does. Waitress waiting on us and table arriving after us takes other table's order before ours. On way out, I ask about the T-Shirt again and am told cabinet is locked and need to find manager. By this time, I'm not waiting any longer. Wait staff acts like they don't want to be there. Don't think I'll return or if I do, it won't be for the food or to use the restaurant.

Will not recommend. Very slow service. So-so food. Small TVs. They don't even know how to serve warm water. Fast food place experience.

20230220: Extremely disappointed that my first three food choices were unavailable, apparently because they were out of Swiss cheese. 😞

Great spot for a drink, lunch, or car meet! The regular entertainment and atmosphere are what keep me coming back.

Went to ACE for an event, and security was beyond rude. 👎

The service was good. The drinks were okay… my husband got the tortilla soup and he did not like… I got the Cuban sandwich and it had no pickles!!! They said they were out, but if you love Cuban sandwiches like I do you know the pickle is soo important! So I was a bit disappointed. If you are coming to drink it’s a great place! If you are looking for bar food it’s a great place! If you are looking for good food, you should probably try somewhere else.⭐️⭐️⭐️😏

Super fun spot! The event was outdoors, bathrooms were a bit tough inside and out.

I think her name was Alex she's was the Best

I’ve eaten here a few times for lunch and every time it has been a fantastic experience.

Went here for emo karaoke night and I can't wait for this to come back around. It was a blast. my only complaint was the food for the event was trash and over priced, I wish they had their normal menu but besides that great venue, great time!

It's always a good place been there many times and I can't say I ever had a bad experience the staff are great not only that the are cool and down to earth the food is good drinks are good just all in all a nice place to hang out for a while

Great spot for any gearhead. Go for the meets and stay for the pineapple cider! Have a whole calendar 📆 in their webpage for individual car class meetings each month.

Great place to hang out...Especially on Bike Night

Beer-battered fish and chips was large, and delicious. Friendly staff.

The food is great! The service is great! But...the restaurant is rather dark inside.

Nice place, great people, events everyday

Ryan was my server and he's the best everytime I go 😊

Went to see a cover band or 3, we weren't allowed to leave and come back, very limited menu when there's an event, servers behind the bar area took FOREVER to get our order while asking those that were already there if they needed refill or anything else, it wasn't THAT busy that Sunday night! Not good...

If I could post a review without any stars I would. Starting with the moment we walked in, the hostess (Adrianna) was so rude. She sat us at a wobbly high top and we asked to move to one near the bar. She rolled her eyes at me and said she’d let the server know we were sat there. Surprise, she didn’t. We had to grab a server who walked past us. He immediately jumped on it and took our table, thanks Christian! We ordered food and the food runner bought it out. I ordered a chicken sandwich but a burger arrived. The food runner, Scott, glared at our server and walked away abruptly. He didn’t apologize or ask what I was supposed to have. When my chicken sandwich came out it was still incorrect but I ate it. At this point we were starving. The burger had NO flavor and the chicken sandwich was watery. We will never return. The meal was only saved by Christian, our server, who went above and beyond even though he was really left in the dust by the rest of the staff.

Went in today for the first time ever. Got a table immediately for a big group which was nice…but after ordering food and drinks I realized we were waiting more than an hour for simple drinks…then 2 hours to find out they couldnt do the shots I ordered…slow service with mediocre food, I will not come back here again

First, the service is very fast, we ordered appetizers and they were out in less than 2 minutes. We were also sat as soon as we walked in. Second, the food is amazing. The fish and chips were my favorite but my boyfriend loved his hamburger. Third, the atmosphere is amazing, punk, rock, and metal are my favorite genres and they were playing all my favorites (quietly). The restaurant also has photos of cars on the wall and plays music videos and movies om the TV. Our waiter- Christian- was very kind and checked on us multiple times throughout our meal. Overall, everything about this place is great and I plan on returning soon. Make sure to order the sweet order- it's made like grandma made it!

Caught a concert on inside stage. Nice organization and show.

Albert the bartender saved the day. The rest of the service sucked. Manager is a tool. Vip and general admission are the same no separation or benefit. Definitely do not buy the food here. Hope another club snags Albert from this so called club. I would support a band but not this venue.

Good bands. Buying vip gets you nothing. Self parking was 20 bucks manager was rude 1 bartender was kewl. Hope he gers snatched up by another club. We won't support this venue anymore

Eat before you come. Probably won't return to this venue no matter how good the band is.

food was just ok, my philly steak was hot food put on a cold sub roll, not heated or toasted, Stephanie (server) was nice & efficient the food portions are a bit small & expensive. restroom was clean & the mini truck show was cool to look at.We won't hurry back for the food.

Sehr freundliches Personal. Preis Leistung top. Haben auch eine Happyour. Mal was anderes. Innenraum eher rustikal und auf Rohbau getrimmt, aber nicht schlecht. Viel Abwechslung im Allgemeinen. Zum Essen kann ich nichts sagen, da wir dort nur etwas getrunken haben. Die alkoholischen Getränke haben eine gute Mischung. 😋

We stoped by for lunch in a Sunday. It looked like they had a big concert the night before. And at that point they were more worried about moving things around that serving lunch. And that’s cool, but maybe don’t open if you known you won’t be able or make an effort to facilitate a solution for a new guest to eat (I took family and friends, we were 9 total) The 3 stars are because the new waitress was incredibly nice and tried her best to help us. The manager was the one not wanting to set up new tables or open a area large enough for us to sit. At the end, we left. No lunch for us.

Awsome place to go... great food and drinks... Bike night is the best

They host a bike night once a month. The issue with this is that all their bikers will then bike in circles around the block for hours so that nobody can sleep on work nights. revving their engines so that all of Orlando can hear. This goes on late into the night. If this place wants to host bike nights, they should consider making it early in the day on a weekend so that it’s not everybody else’s problem.

Most of the food we tried to order was not available. The meat loaf was out and instead of telling us they just never brought anything. Two of our friends just never got anything. It was a dysfunctional mess and the food and drinks we actually got wasn’t worth it.

I didn't get to try the food this time but the drinks were nice. This is an awesome place to check out. All different kind of events for motorcycle and car enthusiast!!!

Visited on a bike ride nice place good food reasonable prices

Today I decided to watch the final of the Worldcup (Argentina and France) at Ace Caffe Orlando. The atmosphere was great, I couldn't really observe the food but I can say that Stephanie was really nice and attentive. Her service was amazing. Even though she was very busy, she always stopped by where I was and asked if I need anything. She is a great waitress. I give her 5 stars without a doubt!

I had only been to the Ace Cafe for lunch before and it was always good. After the Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert at the Amway Center, we had a nice dinner at the bar. Plenty of parking, clean restrooms.
