“🍕🥤🍕 Flatbread! Yum! In my opinion this is the best offering for quick service in Volcano Bay it’s also easy to bring the items to your Cabana or other Waturi Beach seating if you don’t use a delivery option. Big downside is the staff is not the best at customer service when compared to the other “magic” within the Universal staffing.“

“This Volcano Hot Pot and BBQ was the best our family has been too. The service today was impeccable. The food was fresh. The selection was large and they did not rush us or freeze us out. Even when there were some rude patrons, the team worked together to make sure everyone had what they needed. The sweet tea was not diabetic. The food was flavorful. They did not let our paper burn or our soup burn. This is by far was the best hot pot experience we have had yet!“

“We had lunch at Typhoon Tilly’s today and the food was pretty good with some reasonably nutritious offerings. The service was fairly quick, even with a long line. The atmosphere is sort of like a shack on the beach but in a great way and fun. Good for a quick bite to eat.

“Our family loves this place. Always come here after a long day at the one of the closest theme parks, hungry and tired. We like to order buffet, all kinds of meat is so delicious and a high quality. Our favorite appetizers are seaweed, kimchi and bean sprout. Stuff is always very polite, attentive and caring. We'll definitely come back again.“

“It's a great restaurant and the meats are very good. We recommend ordering the longhorn. The atmosphere is typical American and the service is also good. Overall, we were well served, but the waiter once pressured us to tip, which is quite annoying. But overall, it's a great restaurant option for a good meal that offers good value for money.“

“Everything was grest!!!!“

“I visited Longhorn on March 13, 2025 approx. 1:30. Great food, got the chop steak with mash potatoes, gravy and a salad. The food was great, but the high light was my server Capriane. She was phenomenal, very knowledgeable in regards to the menu, but her personality was fantastic. She was very enjoyable to talk to, she was very attentive to servicing my table with her positive and friendly demeanor. On a scale of 1-10 she was a solid “15”, Anyone visiting this Longhorn ask for Capriane, if I lived in the area she would be my go to server.“

“We all really enjoyed the food. The skillet was all really good, the chicken tenders and bacon cheeseburger were good, and the Smokehouse pizza was surprisingly really good. Food came out pretty quick and the staff was very friendly. My only complaint was the western music was kind of annoying through the meal, not very fair to criticize that when that's the theme, just personal preference for me.“

“Very authentic Pakistani food. I thoroughly enjoyed it.“

“Today at lunch, I ordered a mozzarella sandwich for myself at Pier 8 Market. The staff member kindly offered me a side salad as well. I mentioned that I don’t like onions, so she did her best to remove them and still gave me the salad. Unfortunately, I forgot to ask her name, but I want to thank her again here for her kindness and attention to detail. Her thoughtful attitude truly made a difference
Thank you guys 😍“

“LongHorn Steakhouse is a meat lover’s paradise! The cuts are cooked to perfection, juicy and full of flavor, especially the Flo’s Filet and the Outlaw Ribeye. The appetizers, such as the famous warm bread and seasoned fries, are also delicious. The atmosphere is cozy and the service is always friendly. A great option for those looking for a quality meal at fair prices. Highly recommended!“

We ordered the permit, rotisserie chicken, and nachos.“

They're ambience is perfect for date night, or stopping in after a long day at the parks. Would highly recommend this place! freaking 10/10. can't wait for next time“

“I was there yesterday 02/11/2022 for dinner. It was my first time. The service was great. My wife ordered a Rib eye which was delicious. I ordered a Prime Rib and it wasn’t that good. It was no tender enough to be a prime rib. Every thing else was great.“

“Love it Our go to Epcot restaurant“

“Great food, great atmosphere!“

“The Mediterranean Salad with Salmon was superb and plentiful with the Salmon fried to perfection. The friendliness of the young hostess was also great! I look forward to my next visit.“

“Went in with my friend today 8/10/25 right when they opened at 11AM. I had chicken Parmesan with Mac and cheese and salad as a side. Was very good! Was about $25, money well spent because I couldn’t eat all of it leftovers for tonight lol. The portion is very generous it’s a lot of food, don’t leave it there take it home they have boxes you can get. Only negative thing I found and had to struggle to find it I thought the Parmesan sauce on the chicken was a bit too salty but not enough to send back the dish. My parents said the same thing now and before that somehow the sauce is salty a bit too much. But great place to eat will be back!“

“My family and I had the absolute pleasure of being served by Malek F at LongHorn, and I have to say he is exceptional! From the moment we sat down, Malek was incredibly warm, attentive, and genuinely listened to everything we needed. He went above and beyond to make sure our dining experience was perfect.

What stood out the most was how patient and caring he was, making sure every detail was right and making us feel welcome like we were family. His service was professional, friendly, and full of heart something you don’t find every day.

Malek is a true asset to LongHorn and absolutely deserves to be recognized for his dedication and outstanding service. Thank you, Malek, for making our family dinner such a wonderful memory!“

“The staff at Slices New York were incredibly kind and welcoming. From the moment I walked in, they greeted me warmly and made sure I felt comfortable. Their friendliness and attentive service really stood out, adding to the overall experience and making the visit even more enjoyable.“

“being in Orlando and it was cheaper the here in Pinellas county. go figure..... food tasted good tho they serve Pepsi products oh well cant have it all.“

“We love the Plastered Owl! It is the perfect place to grab a drink and snack. The mango bread is AMAZING! Our favorite part was the live music. They interact with the crowd and really make it a place you want to just hangout. It’s also not nearly as crowded as other parts of the park so you can cool off and relax a bit in the middle of a crazy day! Highly recommend checking it out.“

“Great pool and great food! ( no kid friendly food)“
