The Living Room Bar

Arrived early for a dinner reservation and decided to sit at The Living Room Bar. The ambiance in the hotel lobby is fun as the walls are filled with eclectic decor and the seating areas are stylish yet comfortable.We sat for a while on a sofa, and then we made our way to sit at the bar. Our bartender Erika was very knowledgeable and answered some questions regarding their drink menu.I ordered a spicy margarita with Don Julio Añejo and my husband ordered an old fashioned with woodford reserve. Both delicious!Mine has to be the best spicy margarita I have ever had, perfect balance of lime and jalapeño, great kick but not overbearing. I still think of this drink and I can't wait to go back! Hopefully I find Erika!

Best lobby bar I've ever seen. The staff were friendly, attractive, and personable. There was live music from a local artist who plays here weekly and it curated a homey bar in an upscale environment with drinks to match. Highly recommend!!

I love everything about the Lake Nona Wave Hotel, including the lobby bar that is set just off the main check-in area as you're heading outdoors to the stunning sculpture garden next to Bacán. We arrived early for our dinner reservation at Nami and decided to grab a quick drink at The Living Room Bar. I love the comfy seating and eclectic vibe of this hotel. You can walk around the sculpture garden with lots of fun photo-ops or head up the stairs to sit under the pretty pink tree in a more intimate lounge area. I've tried both the Heart Beatz (tequila, hibiscus, pomegranate, fee foam) and Thomas Edison's Bright Idea (Lillet Blanc, Chandon Garden Spritz, soda) which were very refreshing and delish. They also have a tapas style food menu available if you want something to nibble on. There is free parking available in their garage which is always a huge plus when visiting a hotel as a local!

The ambience in general of the wave hotel is so beautiful. Both inside and out. My friend and I were coming in to have a drink before dinner and were the only ones at the bar. We were greeted warmly and ordered our martinis. SO GOOD! I loved looking at the decorations on the wall and the glowing trees that were places near the stairs headed up to the second restaurant. The service here at The Living Room was great and the bartender was cheerful and seemed to be happy we were there. I even heard they did live entertainment near the bar seating so I will absolutely come back to enjoy what the living room has to offer

The vibe here is very nice. It's dim and would be perfect for date night. They have a variety of seating options that can accommodate up to about 6. I sat on the stadium seating type stair area. They have bites served here and I had the yucca fries and the charcuterie. The yucca fries were very good but the charcuterie was very salty but they seemed to balance that out with the cheese selection. I ordered El Braulio and loved the taste profile. The waitress shared that all of their cocktails are pretty balanced. I also ordered the Basil Tai which was very pineapple forward. The service was timely and the wait staff were all really nice. Overall it's a very cute bar to meet up. Not too loud and very chill.

I absolutely love this bar, so intimate and it's surrounded by cute artsy decor.Tonight (Friday night) they had a live singer who played the sax and guitar and sang the most beautiful throwbacks of r&b, it was such a nice vibe.They also have a good variety of spirits to choose from. My favorite signature cocktail of theirs is the Heart Beatz.Great spot for a date or intimate convos and chill vibes, highly recommend.

This is a bar in the lobby of the chic and upscale Wave Hotel. The bartender was friendly and the drinks were delicious and pretty. The drinks are pricey but I expected that because of the ambience. There are also appetizers but I didn't try any. Will definitely go again...and try some of the apps!

We have to rethink our own living room after a visit to this place. We stopped in for a drink before heading up to the Haven for a drink. Gotta pace yourself, right? What we found was a small bar right outside the entrance to Bacan. However, there are tables throughout the Wave Hotel "lobby" area which comprise the scope of this bar.Each "section" could be a setup for a living room in an eclectic lottery winner's house, many of which could be accomplished with a trip to a few different Homegoods. There's a wide variety of art, furniture, tables, and lighting which just makes the atmosphere elegant and quaint, until some schlub walks through in shorts and a t-shirt wheeling a suitcase. That's not enough to lower the rating though.The service area also goes up the stairs where there are seating areas on the stairs heading up to the 2nd floor where Haven is located. On weekends, they have live entertainment which on the night we were there was an acoustic guitar player who played the acoustic guitar since that's how that job works.The waitress was friendly and checked up on us regularly as we were deciding as well as during our drinking experience. Her drink recommendations were spot on. Plus, the ice was cold! We could see ourselves coming here again and again.

Really enjoyed our time here this afternoon! We sat at the bar which is on the first floor, across from Bacan (next on my to try list). The cocktails were fantastic and the bartenders were super attentive. Unfortunately the kitchen downstairs wasn't open yet but they offered us a select menu from the upstairs kitchen. The fried calamari was fantastic! Perfectly breaded and crispy, while super tender with a really nice aioli and grilled lemon. Really interestingly decorated- you just don't know where to look first and the more you look the more you find! Very instagramable. Strongly recommend this spot for a cocktail!

Ordered the octopus and it was good. Not too tough well spice. And the price is moderate.Service was fast.Great ambience
