The Boathouse

The food was good, the prices are kind of high for the dishes .. but that’s what you get in a high tourist area. Our server was very attentive however it was very busy and wait time for food was a little longer than desired. Pictures are of the rolls (free), firecracker shrimp appetizer, chopped salad, red potatoes and the veggie pasta. The atmosphere was probably my favorite part, right on the water, cool boat theme, nice bar. Would recommend to friends.

I have been looking forward to eating here, for what seems like forever. And maybe that was the issue. It's not that the food isn't good, or that the service isn't good. It was all just ok. The absolute best thing was the warm and soft bread they serve, honestly you can eat that and a salad and be satisfied. Everything we ordered came out hot and fresh. Our server was again good, he did nothing that would stand out above and beyond and again that's how I feel the food was. I ordered the shrimp boil, and yes they were generous with larger shrimp, but the flavor, the part that makes you want to spoon the juices of the boil into your mouth, was nothing spectacular. It just missed that bang. The fish tacos were fresh, and crisp, but the fish was bland, seasoning lacking. The fresh cut fries were mixed some were crispy and delicious, while others soft and under cooked. As if they fry large batches and they sit until served. I may have just gotten my hopes up from everything I read, and have been told. I'll try brunch next time m

There's a reason why there are so many positive reviews on this place. The view and the food are excellent. I got the grouper and my wife had the steak and both were cooked to perfection. Raw oysters is one of their specialties and we got half a dozen to start off with and they were superb. It's a very busy place and reservations are definitely suggested unless you go after 9:00 p.m.

Our first time here and we had the most perfect waitress, Lexi. She was so kind and helpful when it came to helping me choose which food to order. Please ask for her if you come here. She even put my food in my to-go box for me. The food was really good. I recommend ordering the firecracker shrimp as an appetizer. Make sure you put some lime on it, it’s so delicious! I heard a lot of hype about this restaurant and so I finally decided to give it a try for lunch. It turns out, I made a really good decision! I ordered some food that I normally wouldn’t try and it was awesome!

Decided to eat here for our 37 anniversary my wife had the lobster tail and I had the porterhouse steak and side order of fries. My steak came out well done and I ordered it medium said I would eat it but our waiter said that wasn't what you ordered and he got me a new steak cooked perfectly. Our food was awesome. We had the keylime pie for dessert served in a big glass which was a different way it was made but was also good. All the people that worked in the restaurant made the experience fun and rewarding. So glad we ate here.

Update! STILL AN AMAZING EXPERIENCE! Wife opted for the Roasted Chicken and absolutely loved it! Such an awesome place! GO HERE!

UNBELIEVABLY GOOD. WOW. I have had salmon at so many restaurants and the salmon here is absolutely next level incredible. The quality, the flavor, and the way it was prepared was PERFECT. Best salmon I have had at a restaurant! Our waiter Joel was great too, and recommended the firecracker shrimp tacos to my wife and she absolutely loved them! HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place if you want a 5 star meal!

For our last dinner in Orlando, wife and I decided to check out this place in Disney Springs.

Without reservations we weren’t sure if we were able to get a table during a busy Sunday night but we were lucky.

The restaurant was nicely decorated inside giving out that “boathouse” vibe. There are many screens so we were able to catch a glimpse of the Dolphins game. Our server was very tentative and friendly knowing we were from out of state (just like majority of the guests here) she patiently explained the menu and the local IPA selections.

We ordered some calamari, fish tacos 🌮 and tuna tartare. The quality of food was descent but the quantity was a bit lacking given the price. I guess being in the Disney Springs, tourists were quite willing to pay extra 💰

Overall, I would rate this place a four star. Food is probably above average but price is also above average. Recommend you to check it out if you are in the area but not worth the extra trip in my opinion.

Wish I could give a better review. Just wasn’t very impressed with the food quality. It was also a very long wait time for our lobster sandwiches. I think we waited about 70 mins after ordering. The waiter/ staff in general were really great. To me the lobster sandwich tasted like frozen lobster on a kinda cheap bread roll. Fries were great. I think we got the truffle ones. If we went again I would try their special of the day or the steak that the waiter highly recommends.
