I know I-Drive is super touristy, but have you ever had the portobella sandwich at Bahama Breeze? They also have amazing sangria… it was one of the best meals I’ve had in a longgg time!

P.S. LOVE the new site!
Yes and I love Bahama Breeze too. There’s one right by my house actually on the otherside of Orlando so no trip to I-Drive needed
Try Boston’s Fish House in Winter Park. Darn good food and their meals will easily serve two. They have backed and fried seafood. Family owned and operated http://www.urbanspoon.com/r/26/300432/restaurant/Orlando/Bostons-Fish-House-Winter-Park
Also the Little Thai House is awesome. Best Thai I have had in the US.

Wow! What a great list. I’ve lived in Tampa for a year now and have to meet friends in Orlando for dinner next weekend. I’m a vegan. I was wondering if you could point out any vegan – meat eater friendly places?
Thanks so much.
Be well,
Carolyn
The Social Chameleon is a great spot!
you should try Red Brick Pizza. I know they have locations in both Orlando and Florida!
sorry..I meant to stay Orlando and Tampa!
I am SO glad to have found your blog! I live about an hour away from Orlando and everytime we go down there I am always wanting to eat something different than the crappy chain restaurants we have! Thanks for doing the, um, research?
Cafe TuTu Tango has the bestest Sangria & tapas in Orlando imho!!
I SO want to go next time I’m there. maybe in the fall I can zip over from the coast.
Wow! Just discovered your site. It is amazing and you are located in Orlando even better.
Thank you so much for this list! I just discovered this on your blog, funny since I am contemplating a trip to Orlando w/in the next year. It’s one of those last few cities I haven’t seen (outside of LA) and on my last stop in Miami, I made a mental note that I need to visit the ORL. This list makes everything so easy. When I go, I’ll probably just print off this page as a guide. Thank you very very much.

I lived in Orlando for 8 years and I love some of the restaurants you’ve mentioned. But I have two to add, if you haven’t heard of them.
NYPD pizza – Voted best pizza in Orlando, and it really is! Their main location is in Metrowest on Hiawassee, and they just opened another one in College Park on Edgewater where American Pie used to be.
The Dessert Lady – Everytime I went there weren’t very many people there, it’s a true hole in the wall. But the desserts are to DIE for! She was located on the corner of Kirkman and Conroy, but since I’ve moved, so has she. I’ve heard she’s now in downtown Orlando near Church Street. It has also been said that PF Chang’s gets their desserts from her. Worth checking out, I’d say!

I lived in Orlando for 13 years, and the one seafood restaurant that NEVER disappointed me was High Tide Harry’s at the corner of Colonial and Semoran. Definitely a must try for seafood lovers who want a non-chain restaurant experience.
High Tide Harry’s has moved a location further south at 4465 S. Semoran Blvd, down toward the airport. Much larger! Still great!
