50 Best Seafood Restaurants near Windermere

“The best poke in Orlando! Always fresh, clean, delicious“

“Ok, so this was an interesting dining experience. My husband and I stumbled upon this locale by accident, and honestly we were pleasantly surprised by it. Initially, the menu is a bit overwhelming. However, our waitress was so helpful and knowledgeable of everything on the menu that she guided us through the serving options (big portions!) and the food was just incredibly well-seasoned and cooked that we just fell in love with this place. I'm hispanic, so the ambiance felt like one of those restaurants I'd frequent on any given Sunday with family after church in the afternoon. I loved it Will definitely come back.“

“5 stars all around for sure. Heard so many great things about this place so I decided to try it and I will definitely be coming back. Our server Lwren was incredibly sweet and attentive, one of the best we have had. She provided so many amazing recommendations and made sure our experience was the very best. Make sure you get the gator bites if you decide to try this place out :)“

“Norigami is a must-visit for any sushi lover. The quality of the fish is consistently outstanding – every bite is damn near perfect. David's talent and dedication are evident in each creative dish, and the entire staff complements his mastery with friendly and attentive service. From the melt-in-your-mouth nigiri to the innovative special offerings, Norigami is a culinary experience that deserves high praise. Thanks to David and the whole team for making it such a delight!“

“Great service and their menu this time of the year is absolutely wonderful. We had really good wine flights, flatbread + appetizers (great salads, crab cake, asparagus soup) then the main meal (wonderful sea bass, loin of lamb and gnocchi). Our server was patient, helpful, had good conversations (brief, not overwhelming), funny and on top of it all with our orders! Great guy!“

“Good service and Nice atmosphere.“

“This place is great! Amazing food, friendly staff, so many selections, great kid’s menu, and they even offer breakfast on the weekends!“

“The food was a solid 5/5 experience. Definitely a bit of a splurge for our party of 5, but the service was so incredible that the cost was easily forgotten. Dining out on Mother's Day can often be hectic, but John made our group feel like we were the only table in his section during our visit. His efforts were even more appreciated as we had 3 seniors in our group and we were not very quick when deciding on what to order. Extra thanks to John for his exceptional service and also to the rest of the kind staff for being so friendly and gracious on what is most certainly an overwhelming day to not only be at work but to also be spending this day away from their own families to allow other families to gather and celebrate. Not our first visit to this location and it will definitely not be our last.“

“My wife and I tried this place for the first time it was so delicious! We ordered the dim sum (black truffle siu mai, steamed pork ribs, abalone shrimp and pork, soup Dumpling, and the seafood soup) and oolong tea. also Erni was our server and he was great, friendly, and attentive to our request for condiments and ect. We recommend this place to everyone.“

“We visited for our 45th Wedding Anniversary, and my wife was VERY impressed. Our kind of place. Friendly service. Unique, bohemian, festive ambience - both inside and out. Tapas were delicious and executed much better than I had expected. Enjoyed visiting with the two working artists, and the belly dancer was lots of fun. Cool drinks that gave me that old-school tiki bar vibe. Will definitely return and recommend to our friends and neighbors!“

“We always enjoy lunch at this I-Drive location. The food is delicious and May, our server, is always amazing. May is extremely attentive and personable. Good job Carrabbas and May! Can’t wait to go back.“

“The food was amazing. We had the appetizer trio of Calamari, meatball and pasta. It is large enough to share. We both had veal dishes, one with prosciutto the other with mushrooms and lobster. Also a side of sauteed spinach. It was so fresh and perfectly cooked. Lastly the ricotta cheesecake. A must. Robert, our server really made the night. He was personable and fun. This is a special restaurant that is definitely worth the visit.“

“An unforgettable dining experience! From the moment we stepped into Capital Grille, we were treated like royalty. Byron, our server, was simply exceptional. His attention to detail and friendly demeanor made our evening truly special. Not only did he cater to our every need, but he also went above and beyond to make my cousin's birthday celebration unforgettable.Every bite was a delight! The oysters were fresh and brimming with flavor, while the prosciutto-wrapped mozzarella was a savory indulgence that left us wanting more. And let’s talk about the sea bass - it was beyond phenomenal, cooked to perfection and paired perfectly with its accompaniments. Each dish was like a chef’s kiss, a true masterpiece of flavors and textures that left us in awe.The management team was also outstanding, ensuring everything ran smoothly. The food was exquisite, the ambiance was elegant, and Byron's outstanding service truly elevated the entire experience. We can't wait to return!“

Never having to wave down, or look for “our” waiter, as the entire staff worked as a team. We enjoyed our meal experience so much, we are coming back for our last meal before returning home so that we may experience more items from the menu.“

“A story of a picky husband and a particular wife! Long story short we are in town celebrating both my husband’s birthday and our anniversary. We were trying to find a last minute place to eat - this was near our hotel.The food was fresh, the bread was warm and good. Everything came out hot & quickly. Portions sharable and enough to have left overs!Our waitress Lisselys was absolutely wonderful. She was very attentive, sweet and gave us recommendations. Simply spectacular.“

“Just the best food ever, come with an appetite!!“

“Came for Mothers Day and had the best time. Alyssa was the best server we ever had. She got out the kids lunch as soon as possible to entertain my nephew. Chef Manny stopped by our table. He was so nice. That was a nice touch. John the server assistant brought the best bread and described the cheeses. Billy the GM was very accomadating. Very nice guy. He had a snazzy suit on. Everyone was so nice, I shared my cake with them.“

“Exceptional service with amazing food!“

“The service help and the front of the house staff are amazing. We got the Green Menu and the courses got slow a couple of times but nothing outrageous. But, I had to 4 stars on value because I'd say it's about 10 to 15% high. But, it's Disney prices“

“We enjoyed a lovely dinner at Amare located inside Disney's Swan Reserve hotel. My husband and I love Mediterranean food and wanted to try some place new during our little mini staycation. We were pleasantly surprised by how great the food & service were. The atmosphere definitely presents as more casual, but the cocktails, food, and service staff are very polished. My husband started with the Viola cocktail (gin, crème de violet, cucumber-lime basil elixir) which he loved so much he ended up having two. I had their Spritz de Passione 'No ABV' mocktail which was absolutely fabulous for a non-alcoholic drink. It was similar to an aperol spritz with a hint of mango and garnished with fresh berries. For our appetizer, we went with the charred octopus which was light and refreshing. We're particular about how octopus is prepared and you can tell with one bite if it's done right or not. It was meaty and tender and we really enjoyed the added texture from the crispy potato shards and the pistachio gremolata. They also give you complimentary bread service and hummus for the table. For our main dishes, my husband ordered the Romesco Chicken and I got the Grilled Beef Souvlaki. Both were very generous portions with more than enough food. If you're really hungry, the souvlaki is huge and you have a choice of beef or chicken skewers. I will say that the beef could have been a bit more tender and more seasoned. My husband really enjoyed the red pepper romesco sauce on his chicken dish, though we both agreed the presentation could have been better. There's a lot happening on this plate. We were celebrating my husband's birthday that weekend, so they surprised us with a dessert which was definitely a highlight. You do not want to miss their Greek Yogurt Cheesecake. It was probably one of the best cheesecakes I've ever had and ended the meal on a perfectly sweet note!“

“Veryyy good ! And fast with cooking absolutely love !“

“Delicious crab legs and great service.“

“3/3/24: Came to dine in with my two little foodies. I have to give them five stars rating.1. Superb customer service! My little man fell asleep in my arm the whole time. The server was so sweet. She tried to communicate to me in Chinese but I didn't understand a word she said. ? But she gestured to help me serve the hot food into the bowls and dishes for my daughter and me since my little man was in a deep sleep in my arms.2. I recommend the Beef Chow Fun with extra wide rice flat noodle stir fry with very tender beef. I requested no bean sprout and the kids love it.3. I recommend the há cảo. It has thin skin and well seasoned shrimp filling. Not too salty like some place makes it.4. I love the Eight Treasures clay pot. It has 8 proteins including tender chicken breast, beef, shrimp, scallop, calamari, cubed fried soft tofu, and shittake mushrooms with a brown flavorful sauce.5. I also recommend the Crab and Fishmaw Soup.9/3/22: I came for lunch with a party of 10 (6 adults and 4 kids). My friend from Melbourne wanted to try this restaurant.Pros:1. Friendly superb customer service2. Clean and cozy interior design and layout3. Highly recommend the Stir Fry Water Spinach and Clams with Black Bean SauceWe ordered the following:Dim sum items: Fried shrimp balls - our two families of three generations all thought the fried shrimp balls were on the salty side of the scale. The other items were okay, nothing stands out. Both families prefer Ha Long Bay dim sum over this place. My kids love hac cao but they didn't like this version here. Shrimp paste is on the salty side.Stir fry water spinach - the grownups all enjoyed and recommend this dish.Stir fry flat noodle with beef - It was okay, the sauce didn't stand out, has a strong soy sauce flavor. Noodle was cooked just right for the kids to enjoy.Lobster with ginger scallion sauce - lobster meat was very airy and light. Just not the season for good meaty lobster. Kirin's Court in Plano, TX still makes it a lot better for me.Clams with Black Bean Sauce - Clams tasted fresh and the sauce has a well balance taste of sweetness and saltiness. All the adults love it! I highly recommend this if you like clams. I wanted to take the leftover sauce home but my friend's dad ate it all with steamed rice. Hahaha!Overall, it's a restaurant worth trying.Kid-friendliness: They have the typical kid-friendly dim sum items.“

“Wonderful experience every time we come! My gang and I come weekly! We always enjoy ourselves. We love the staff, customer service and food.“

“We went for dinner last night for the first time and we all 10/10 recommend. My husband had Combo A and 2 of us had the meals that you can pick which seafood you want. It was all incredible. I don’t know where you found Luis. That kid has THE best customer service skills that I have ever experienced in my life. He looked like he was maybe 16 and he did better than any adult I’ve ever received customer service from. We will go back!“

“This was my first time dining at Bahamas Breeze and the atmosphere was great but what really made this experience so good was our incredible server Ember. Her attention to detail, professionalism, and friendly demeanor elevated our night. Ember's excellent service ensured that every aspect of our meal was perfect, from her honest recommendations to timely service. I highly recommend Ember to anyone visiting Bahamas Breeze the best dining experience. Thank you Ember, for your outstanding hospitality she is definitely an asset to this establishment!!“

“Such a cool and chill vibe! Food and drinks were delicious! Our bartender/mixologist was knowledgeable and genuinely nice, making sure everything about our experience went smoothly. Definitely recommend!Dietary restrictions: Shellfish allergy so they took necessary precautions“

“We’re from Canada and this is the first time we tried this restaurant. The food (seafood) was soo delicious and plentiful for 3 people. We ordered 3 side dishes and boy . . . we have to take home some as we can’t finished it all. We will come back to this place for sure before we go back home.“

“Visited Orlando for the weekend golfing at Bay Hill. Fresco's was recommended by the folks at the Lodge. Glad we stopped in for dinner. The food is excellent. It will be my goto on future Orlando visits.“

“Excelente atención , la comida de calidad como en casa“

“Fantastic food and friendly but professional staff. We had tiramisu and wine one night and then the meatball appetizer and lobster ravioli the following night. All was delicious but the meatballs with the polenta was a delicious new twist.“

“Had dinner at the bar. Food was great, service from bartenders Reggie and Cody excellent. Very attentive to everyone on a very busy night.“

“EXCELENTE!!! Servicios al cliente, Comida, el Ambiente y las cervezas bien frías. Si vas los domingos tienen música en vivo creo de 1-3:00pm.“

“My Peruvian friend approved! We were just visiting Orlando for business and found this restaurant for dinner. The ceviche had wonderful flavor all the way down to leche de tigre—we drank it all as well. The octopus was tender and delicious, and the beer was nicely cold. I had a great experience. Thank you for the authentic food—my Peruvian friend was equally happy with our choice of dinner spot!“

“Friendly staff. Crap legs were phenomenal!!“

“My daughter visiting from England we had Bahama Breeze the last time she was here. On a Friday night we were able to sit outside and there was a great 3 piece band that had us getting a real Caribbean feel. We definitely had some fun and good eats ..“

“Awesome place! Swissy was great...crab was delicious!“

“Staff and food was phenomenal I will definitely go back again .“

“For the best value, go for lunch and add the unlimited appetisers for a few dollars more. Garlic shrimp were delicious. Wish they did an unlimited appetisers option only minus the hot pot. Will definitely go back. Thank you Barbara.“

“Austin was an amazing server with a great attitude! The food was delicious. We got the king feast with crawfish and an extra cluster of snow crab and it was more than enough. Austin even put in beignets for us after they were closed. We had a great time!“

“Price too high and not much of a seafood place and definitely not Cajun!“

“The wife & I tried out Narcoossee's located in the Grand Floridian for my birthday. It was fantastic and worth checking out. We had a view of the lake and had started with a good idea of what we wanted. Our Server Jae was great, she provided an overview and some recommendations which we ended up changing our order. We landed on the Brisket and Ricotta Tortelloni & Lobster Bisque soup to start. You can't beat homemade pasta and lobster Bisque with real lobster. For our main course we had thePlancha-Seared Scallops & Parisian Gnocchi ( Jae said the Meyer Lemon Cream sauce was fantastic and she did not oversell it ) and Gulf Shrimp Bucatini. Try this place after dusk for the electric boat show and fireworks over the castle. Have to admit, we were stuffed so we grabbed the Almond-crusted Cheesecake to go and it was very flavorful. Thanks Jae and all the staff, it was a great night“

“Best caipirinha ever!! I tried picanha and brigadeiro and they were both excellent!“
