1 Star - Absolutely Revolting: Do NOT Eat Here! Walked into Papi Smash’d Burger in downtown Orlando thinking we’d try their hyped-up smash burgers. Big mistake—we didn’t even order and bolted out the door as fast as we could. The place was filthy from the start: sticky tables, grimy floors, and an overall vibe of total neglect. That nasty sofa at the front of the store was an absolute eyesore—stained, worn-out, and looking like it belonged in a landfill, not a restaurant. Seriously, who puts a revolting couch like that where people are supposed to eat? But the bathroom was on another level of horrific. The moment I opened the door, I was assaulted by a terrible, unearthly stench of urine—sharp, overwhelming, and putrid, like it had been building up since the beginning of time with zero cleaning in between. Urine-saturated toilet paper was scattered everywhere: on the floors, and wadded up in corners. And the urinal? Empty cans of beer floating in a pool of yellow liquid, like some kind of grotesque science experiment. Sinks crusted with grime, no soap, dark stains all over— it was beyond disgusting. If they let the customer bathroom get this vile, I can’t even fathom the state of the kitchen. We lost all appetite instantly and left. No burger, no matter how “smash’d,” is worth gambling your health here. Orlando has way better, cleaner options. Avoid this dump at all costs.

1. The food was not good at all. I got the grouper and it had a really fishy taste. I sent it back to get a chicken club. I told the waiter no pickles or lettuce and make it to go. When I got home, it had pickles and lettuce on it. Multiple people from my group had to have their food sent back because it either wasn't fresh or it wasn't what they asked for. 2. Next, It was hot as hell in there. There needs to be a better ventilation system because once the hookah started and the food started coming out; it was very stuffy and hot. 3. Also the hostess gave us a really hard time with additional people that came. They were told if they came, they could pay at the door and sit with the birthday crew. That did not happen and made them leave. The website explains everyone has to be under one reservation but it also says we can have up to 20 people. Definitely could have accommodated three additional people cause we only had 11. 4. Lastly, the waiter asked me to write down what I wanted on the birthday sign. I clearly wrote and sent an email saying "Happy Birthday Trayvia. "They spelled it "Trayria." This error is posted all over your social media pages. And all the waiter said was "My Bad." Imagine how the birthday girl felt seeing this and how you would feel it it happened to you. Totally unacceptable!! Overall, it was a nice vibe because I had never been but I would NOT recommend anyone here because of all of the issues my birthday crew experienced.

65 dollars for 2 drinks? And they charged the max gratuity on top. The atmosphere is super ghetto like a cantina, mediocre drinks. You can go to a nice rooftop like rosa sky in Brickell and pay half for 2 drinks. This is stupid

10/10 Absolutely loved this place! The food was fresh, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome, and the atmosphere was cozy yet elegant. Definitely a spot I’ll be coming back to.

...because unless you have aguesia, or perhaps if you're a moron, choosing and liking a restaurant because it is decorated with license plates and beer cans is a pretty foolish call. This place is so-decorated. The food (our party had fish'n'chips, a Blue Burger, and salmon, amongst us) is uniformly uninspired, and nearly tasteless. The portions are mediocre. The beer is...please pay attention, I'm commenting on the BEER in a TAVERN here...crummy. It reeked of old pennies from a piggy bank. The service is 'lacking' (and so too should be the gratuity). And to top off an otherwise lousy experience, the menu is not inexpensive. And they only take cash, which in today's world should basically be reserved for schemes for tax evasion or money laundering. It's a neighborhood joint, and I should be going there often, but I don't. I would favorably comment that the parking is free, but since it is a neighborhood joint most of the patrons walk so they don't get trapped in a DUI situation.

A group of us went to have a holiday dinner based on some of the positive reviews we read. No one had eaten there before. I ordered the Linguini Frutti di Mare not spicy but received one very spicy. Their next attempt was not spicy but it also was very bland oily and tasted like it had no seasonings. Decor on walls was very nice but tables were basically pizza parlor tables set with a small sized paper mat and cutlery rolled in a paper napkin. All this for a restaurant touting culinary authentic Italian dishes as high as $32.00. Really? Everyone was disappointed at the lack of holiday decor, as a matter of fact, there was not one thing in the entire restaurant to indicate it was a holiday season. Atmosphere was also negatively affected by the multiple TVs and background music piped in from 102.5 with annoying alternative hip hop music probably attractive to the preteen/teenage demographic. The waiter kept bragging about the new menu and pizzas. I guess they really do want to be a pizza parlor. Based on the prices we expected something totally different from what we experienced. I gave it 2 stars only because others in the group ordered Lasagna and said it was the best they had eaten but even they will not return due to all the other factors.

A hidden gem inside Islands of Adventure. The food is so fresh and tasty, the service is always friendly and excellent. Love the decor - a peaceful little oasis when you need a break from the heat or cold or crowds! Prices are reasonable, given it's inside a theme park. Not as big a fan of their new menu - liked their older one better, but still all good! This place is always a must-visit every time we're in the parks.

1) Family owned and operated: That isn't just a catch phrase or something written in their marketing. Often, a family member will stop by to inquire about your meal. They're very hands on with their restaurant and why shouldn't they be? They're charging good money for a good steak... better ensure its good (and it is)! 2) Quality of the food: We'll get a bone-in-ribeye almost every time and they nail it 100% of the time. The other must have are the potatoes au gratin... (tip: they reheat almost just as well if you bake them vs. microwave). So why not a 5 star? Its in somewhat of an odd area, not the restaurants fault by any means... but you can't walk next store for a night cap or down the block of ice cream. In... and out. The real reason is we feel like the place could use some design upgrades. They do a fantastic job pulling off the vibe of a steak place as you either remember or imagine it decades ago. However, there is a fine line between run down and classic. If we could have given it 4.5 stars we would, because it deserves it on food and service alone. One other thought: the drinks are fantastic... however, they don't do much in the way of drink presentation. More like you would mix and serve at home. In reality, we believe its the best steak house in all of Orlando.

1st time at Adriatico trattoria italiana and although off the beaten track it was great to go to a true Italian restaurant,food was authentic itailian ,great atmosphere and service was good.but parking can be a bit tricky,took about 45min drive from Kissimmee but still a great find if you feel a bit adventurous and want to eat away from the big chain restaurants.

My wife and my daughter visited this place, and the experience was truly disappointing. My wife asked a waitress, in Spanish, if she could bring us some sugar. The waitress’s response was rude and xenophobic. She stood right in front of her and said, in a harsh tone, that only English. My wife, shocked, tried again in English, but the waitress left angrily and never brought the sugar. It’s a shame, because the atmosphere is nice, but this behavior made us feel very uncomfortable. We will not be returning.

Had such an incredible experience at Sexy Fish, and a huge part of that was thanks to Rafik. From the moment we sat down, he made everything feel effortless, elevated, and genuinely fun. His attention to detail, timing, and energy were just perfect; super attentive without ever being overbearing. Rafik really knows how to create a vibe. Every recommendation he gave was spot on, and you can tell he truly cares about making your night special. It’s rare to find service that feels both luxurious and personal at the same time, but he nailed it. If you’re going to Sexy Fish, ask for Rafik you’ll thank me later ✨

The Location and atmosphere was nice, but the cost of the food, taste and service was terrible. You’re better off going to the rusty pelican.

Wonderful atmosphere and even better service! I had a great meal—the steak was cooked to a perfect medium and paired well with the mashed potatoes and steamed veggies. I also appreciated the well-poured Glenlivet to start the evening. A special mention for the bartender, Gabriella! She was incredibly friendly and engaging, making the whole experience feel personal. Excellent food and top-tier hospitality—I'll definitely be back!
