Paddlefish is a restaurant known for its unique name and varied customer reviews. While some customers have described the food quality as "trash," others have praised the delicious loaded crab fries, shrimp and grits with pepper sauce, and the attentive service provided by the staff. The restaurant also offers a popular strawberry basil lemonade and a relaxed, laid-back atmosphere. Many visitors have enjoyed the food, describing it as fresh, creatively flavorful, and very good, with service that is often praised as excellent. The ambiance is considered really nice, making it a great place to watch the boats go by.
In recent years, the restaurant has made significant changes to its menu, which has been met with mixed reactions from customers. Some expressed disappointment that they could not order crab legs but instead had to settle for a crab boil, which some felt was not a suitable option for an expensive restaurant. Accessibility was mentioned as an issue for a guest with a scooter, indicating that table positioning could be improved for comfort.
Overall, Paddlefish remains a popular dining spot in Disney Springs, appreciated for its lovely food, friendly service, and relaxing atmosphere. Many regular visitors plan to return, enjoying the creative flavors and attentive staff. Some feel that the restaurant has shifted its focus, possibly catering more to families, and that the upscale dining experience has changed from its previous days as Fulton's.
