17 Best Gastropubs in Orlando

“My wife and were anxiously waiting for this restaurant to open. We went this Friday (May 5th) and were not disappointed. First, the restaurant is beautifully decorated. The ambient music was at a perfect level with a definite South Beach feel. We interacted with several servers and each of them provided excellent service. The menu has enough diversity to satisfy anyone's tastes. To start, we had an appetizer that consisted of scallops covers in parmesan cheese that was melted at the table with a torch. For our entrees, I had a beef dish (Lomo Saltado), while my wife had a pork dish (Arroz chaufa with pork). Everything was delicious. They have quite a few specialty drinks in their cocktail menu. We each had a different drink and both were very tasty. We thoroughly enjoyed our dining experience at Piscos and look forward to going back.“

“Great place to stop before or after a flight! Happy hour speciala are great! $8 martinis on Mondays and $8 burgers on Tuesday! Can’t beat it!“

“Second time here, and it’s just as good as I remembered! 🙌

I first came here with my girlfriend last year during our first trip to Orlando, and we absolutely loved the vibes, the service, and the overall experience. So, coming back to Orlando this year, I knew I had to revisit this place.

It was great to see even more people this time, including a couple of bigger groups, while the place still had the same great vibe and atmosphere. The service was just as good as I remembered.

Special mention to Sean at the bar this time around. Quick, friendly, and efficient service — definitely made the experience even better!

Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to whenever I’m in Orlando!

“When they say they have the best fish and chips, I don't think they're lying. That was definitely one of the best fish and chips I have had in a long time.

On top of that our server, Jovan, was able to recommend things to do for the rest of our weekend here. Outstanding experience. Looking forward to going back.“

“Incredible staff, great drinks and cigars, atmosphere with music during set hours.

Food is lacking but they want you to eat at the restaurants, it's a part of the hotel.

You pay for what you get but you get great service.“

“Great food and service. Nice portions, It was our first time visiting. Definitely one of our new favorites! As a small business we always try to patron small business and family owned and operated!“

“The BEST! If you are looking for the best of everything in a dining experience, look no further then Marlow's Tavern. A true gem! When you walk in, it's too a sparkling clean dining area, with a coziness that envelopes you in comfort with deep colors, and the a/c is just right, the background music is just right, and the hostess finds you a nice corner that accommodates a mobility scooter and the other 3 in your family are comfortably seated in a wrap around booth. The table is not attached to the floor so that even larger members of your party, can be comfortable. Our waiter, Mario was top notch right from the start, explaining to us how the restaurant is a cut above a typical restaurant by making everything from scratch the food and the drinks (even the drink juices and mixers are all made fresh in house) We wanted a tropical drink that was not in the menu, they made us exactly what we were looking for! Then the chef came out to personally greet us and welcome us even providing us with a surprise that made us feel like VIP's. Our waiter described a few of his own favorite dishes. And answered our questions and advised us on the menu to meet our specific tastes along the way. Then came the food!!! We ordered a crab dip with buttered saltines, shrimp and grits, a lump crab salad, prime rib french dip, and asparagus fries. We LOVED every single bite(and ate every single bite, stopping just short of licking the plates) The BEST of everything, each forkful a delight and the best we have ever had! I mean the best crab dip. The best shrimp and grits( 2 members of our party mentioned that they were going to share, it was plated perfectly on two plates, with more shrimp on 1/2 the order then we had ever seen on a full order! The shrimp were succulent, firm, tasty and cooked to perfection.) The prime rib was cooked exactly as it should be and so tender it just melted in your mouth. Asparagus fries we almost fought over, a nice twist on one of our favorite veggies. The food was so good we even had to get 2 desserts to go(we were to full to eat more but it was so good!) that we wanted to try the desserts. As we were leaving, some live music started playing. Our only regret is this was only a quick stop for us before heading out on a cruise. We would have loved to be able to try everything on the menu, it was a difficult decision to decide on just one appetizer and one entree. Go and ENJOY THE BEST!!!“

“We stopped in for lunch with a group of 9 ages 5-65. We sat at the large raised table. We had a great waiter, food we all agreed was delicious, promptly served, and we weren’t rushed to get done.“

“My favorite restaurant in town! Excellent service and food.“

“Pretty good spot to be fairly honest. Food was good , fries was good , and shrimp was good. I just have two things that’s not so on the positive side. Where in the hell are are the waiters???? Food took quite a while. It’s as if the restaurant was filled with nothing but customers. Furthermore just the long wait for the food which may be due to the lack of people. That’s the only thing I have to say!“

“My recent dinner at this Bar Louie was excellent! The drinks, apps., entrees, and desserts were all delicious! I tried the bruschetta, flatbread, pretzel bites, cheesesteak, queso fundido, strawberry cheesecake, and chocolate cake. Everything was wonderful. I was so especially surprised by the bruschetta and strawberry cheesecake. Both SO good! My favorite drink was the dragon fruit margarita. The presentation was BEAUTIFUL and the flavor was divine-and the strength of the drink was spot on. If you like a sweet drink, this is for you. All in all, the menu at Bar Louie was excellent. Every piece of what I tried was delicious & I'll be happy to order every single item in the future.“

“Our rehearsal dinner at Crimson Tavern was wonderful! The pricing was more than fair, the space was perfect for our group, and the team went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. We appreciated the variety of options offered and how willing the staff were to help throughout the evening. Our families and wedding party had a great time, and it was a perfect start to our wedding weekend. Highly recommend this location for your rehearsal dinner or any private event!“

“I just had my first experience with Unico tonight and I truly enjoyed myself! It was R&B night and the DJ was phenomenal! He started playing the saxophone with the songs and I was truly impressed! The food and drinks are also something to brag about! I hope you guys do R&B night often because I’m coming back!“

“fun place...awesome bartenders...good food...“

“Amazing vibes and great music“

“Had the Alya's Brisket Melt and I have yo say, it was Freakung Delicious! I wasnt expecting much from a theme park sandwich but Epic has stepped up their game!

My wife had the Spicy grill Chicken sandwich and a Mock cocktail (First Light mocktail) it was a HR too!“

“Perfect pre-flight fuel with my espresso martini and breakfast burrito. The shining gem of this experience has to be my server, Tabetha. Not only was she expertly accommodating, her empathy for myself and her other guests is unparalleled. A neurodivergent toddler was placed in her section close to me—having a complete meltdown. Tabetha’s compassion for the toddler and his parents were deeply felt, as she attempted to make him smile or laugh and gave reassuring encouragement while she took care of them. Tabetha, you have a gift. Thank you for alleviating my flight anxiety and being an absolute angel!“
