Canvas Restaurant & Market

Great atmosphere and view of the lake, service is on point and the food is delicious. Went for brunch and started with their loaded breakfast potatoes that were delicious and I highly recommend. Followed it up with some good old Fried chicken wings that were seasoned perfectly and extra crispy. Then went to try their Mussels that came out steaming hot and were hit the spot. Did taste fishy and all they needed were some salt and lemon that come with the dish. As my entree I had their steak eggs which was as good as one would expect. Oh and I can forget about the amazing cornbread. Fluffy, moist and flavorful. Perfect to go along with an plate your order. Will be back when in the area and recommend everyone gives this place a try. It does not disappoint

Before you go any further, there's a brand new menu as of 4/18/2024, and it's a very positive change!

I've been coming to Canvas for years now. The views are beautiful, service is always great, and the atmosphere is comforting. If I can be honest, the one thing that was always lacking for me was the food.

But... we dined at the bar last night and tried out several things on the new menu: Grilled Chicken Cutlet Sandwich, French Dip, Flatbread, Mac & Cheese, and the Nutella Donuts. SO GOOD!! We were blown away at how delicious everything was! The portions are large as well. Everyone around us at the bar was raving about what they ordered. It was really great to hear. I look forward to trying everything else on the menu soon.

Also, if you work from home and need a change of scenery, the bar area is an excellent place to work and enjoy lunch. They have outlets under the bar for your laptop/phone as well.

Came here for a Christmas work dinner.
Our CEO reserved a room inside the restaurant, which was very nice a little on the small side for the number of guests we had but the views were AMAZING.
Service was great, they had 3 staff members running the show which was great they were quick, very friendly and professional.
The salmon was delicious I loved how well it was made and the potatoes were the perfect combination. I will need to return on a regular day because it was very nice inside and I loved the decor indoor and outdoor seating.

Everyone is so nice and welcoming here. The food is awesome, from the yuca fries to the fish tacos and the crispy chicken sandwich. It might be the view that steals the show ... try to sit by the window and look out on the lake.

My partner and I went for lunch and we loved it! The beignets were delicious and not too sweet. The blueberry compote was fresh and warm. We split two entrées and they were both amazing! The eggs benedict with jalapeños had an amazing flavour and the biscuits were both soft and crisp. The Meyer lemon pancakes were also not too sweet but soo fluffy and crispy. The staff were polite and helpful, offering to turn the heaters on since we sat on the patio. Our server also had mocktail option ideas for us since we did not want an alcoholic drinks. I will 100% come back to eat and enjoy the view!

This restaurant is off the beaten path and a total gem! I reserved seating for a small group. We arrived on time and was immediately seated. The entryway and front part of the restaurant was a cute vibe and tastefully decorated. I love when places incorporate IG memorable photo backgrounds. We were seated in the back overlooking the lake-just splendid! Our waitress, named Heaven, what a wonderful name. She had the same spunky upbeat vibe like our little group. Heaven, was a pure delight. The food was not a disappointment. My dishes were delicious. This restaurant will be added to my rotation.

My sister took me here for the first time for my birthday and I had an amazing time. The food and drinks were delicious and the decor is the cutest. We sat by the big windows over looking the lake and it was so nice. We had the calamari fries as an appetizer and they were delicious. For our entrees we had the steak frites which was incredible with the garlic jus, the fries were nicely salted and crunchy, and the chicken sandwich which was incredible stacked with coleslaw and an onion ring! Lots of great flavors. The drinks were just as good. I love me a good espresso martini but my sister had not-so-great luck in the past so I had her try mine and she loved it. She went with the “in bloom” I think it was called and it was so fruity and tart. The service was also really good we had a wonderful server who I believe was names kailani (sorry if I missed spelled it) but she was attentive and very personable and very fun! ALL AROUND GREAT PLACE would eat here again

I highly recommend this establishment. The food, the location, and the service all exceeded my expectations. My kids and I had visited Nona Adventure Park and went to Canvas after for dinner. We had the Cassava fries, salmon dip, pesto pasta w/ chicken, and a cheeseburger. My son had worked up such an appetite he finished the whole cheeseburger and he normally eats like a bird, lol. I also recommend the Nona Sunset drink ;-) If we ever visit Orlando again we'll definitely be going back.

I love the atmosphere in the restaurant and the view of the lake is stunning. My family and I did the weekend brunch and there were so many good options. We got the meatball Wellington as an app and I would’ve ordered one just for myself because it was so good. I got the crispy chicken sandwich; the chicken was very flavorful and then sandwich was huge! We also got some of the desserts. The toasted coconut ice box cake was my favorite and it’s definitely going to be my go to dessert from now on. Overall a great experience and great menu choices.

This restaurant has been on my go to list for a while. I wish I would have went sooner!!! What a gem! The service was great. The Canvas Paloma was so delicious. The food, everything was cooked to perfection. The fish felt like it melted… tartar sauce was soooo yummy!!!! The chicken was perfectly cooked, not too much breading. We had the blueberry cobbler for dessert (I forgot to take a picture), a great way to end our meal. I can’t wait to go back!

The food was delicious and the drinks were awesome!! I fully recommend this place. I went at night and definitely coming back on the day bc the view that has is beautiful!!!!

After driving around and wanting to try something spontaneous and new to us, we saw from across the lake a place on the water and we became determined to find it and it's a restaurant!

It's definitely a 5 star restaurant with a great view. They have a new menu now from what I was told. We both ended up getting the chicken sandwiches and both were AMAZING and the mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy were delicious! I normally hate mushrooms but this was great!
Our waitress was super sweet and efficient! Loved the music and the vibe as well.

Definitely recommend for a special day out!

Thanks Canvas for being there for our 12th anniversary! 💖 We'll definitely be back!

Excellent place in Lake Nona! Had the stuffed red snapper and it was delicious! Not far off the turnpike for those looking for a top meal while traveling through Orlando. Service was perfect, exceptional timing of everything!

Great place to have lunch. I recommend sitting outside. Service was great and food too. You can also have iced and hot coffee.

Had a Great Breakfast. Service is super fast, drinks are on point and the ambiance was a bit loud, but manageable. I always go back.

One of my favorite places to go for brunch. Went here in a date :-) we arrived late. But they were able to seat us as soon as we got there. The restaurant is nice over looking the lake and they play music very low. Semi busy but just right amount of people there. Our waiter was great and checked on us frequently. Food and drinks didn't take long to come out. I get the same thing every time I go crispy bacon hash skillet and it comes with a biscuit and I had a nice glass of champagne. They do have bottomless which is worth it I had it few times when I go to brunch with my girls.

I absolutely loved this restaurant. We had a high top table for three. Talking about weddings and events, the restaurant has great space. There was a presentation in the room next to us, and the glass was soundproof! How exciting we couldn't hear a thing. The drinks were fantastic 👌 🙌. Honestly, I don't remember the name. It was a rose sangria with gin and habiskis. Calamari was fantastic. I also tried their tarter sauce, and it was so fresh #2 in Orlando so far. Freshly and made in-house, and you can taste it. Ordered the smoked salmon. It was great to share. The fish n chips 😋 wow! Made with extra ❤. The size of this fish was massive, very filling, and I could eat. Enjoyed ourselves and got a manager visit to our table so friendly. We will come back soon.

The new menu is fantastic! I am so happy to see so many great items added on. The service was phenomenal and the food was even better. Loved the Steak for brunch. Can’t wait to be back!

My husband and I went for the Valentine’s Day dinner and it didn’t disappoint! It was a four course meal and everything was cooked to perfection. It was pricey, but for four courses and two glasses of sparkling wine, it was worth it. We got to watch the sunset and cows grazing along the lake, so the setting was pretty great too.

Located within the Laurette park community, canvas is an on the lake restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. They offer a small menu as well as kraft beers and cocktails. Overall food was great but the views and ambiance made this place shine.
