Wow, WOw, WOW! Bang Bang Shrimp = Amazing Corn Chowder = Wonderful Sea Bass = Incredible Salmon = Good Prices = Pretty Good! Server = Great Overal = 10/10 If you are in the area you need to stop here. I was extremely impressed and could not be happier with our decision for dinner!!! We made reservations at 7, showed up early and they were immediately waiting for us. Sat right away and from that moment the experience was wonderful. Wish there was one back home but makes a great memory!

Good food and poor service. Too long of a wait for a restaurant that was very empty in the back. There were at least 6 empty tables in the back when we sat down after around 20 minutes for a party of 8. We were told 45 minutes, so it was great when we were paged early. That was one of the best parts of the meal. 4 of us received our entrees and waited on the other 4 to get served. The server said it was coming, but when we saw other tables get their food and were frustrated because as a family we expect to eat together. We made a comment that other people were brought their food and it seems like without question one basic expectation is that we should all be served together, not half the people served a good 5 minutes before the others. When the food finally came it was good, but nothing special or extraordinary and there is absolutely no reason I would ever want to visit this location. I asked if they still do a special occasion dessert. I was asked what it was for and told the waitress we were celebrating in between birthdays both for my mom who just had her birthday a few days ago and my nephew who has a birthday in a few days. Then nothing came for dessert. We received a free dessert a few weeks ago at another bonefish so I expected we would be treated to one or two. Before we left I pulled up their website and he first thing on the website is an advertisement for a 15% off coupon. I told the server before he came with our bills and when he came back, everyone else dining with us did not have the 15% off. I asked if we all needed to be on one bill to get the discount or needed to pull it up on our phones. He told everyone to get the offer on their phones and he said he would talk to the manager. Eventually he did give us all the discount, but it was an extra hassle for no reason when it is not a targeted offer or something specific to me. If you go to their website you don't even have to click a link, it is the first thing shown on the top of their page. The manager never came to check on us. It seems like a simple gesture to make sure your customers are happy. I prefer a visit from a manager even though 90% of my meals are issue free. It makes me feel good knowing the manager is engaged with their guests and their experiences and able to ensure their servers are delivering on their brand experience. When a manager fails to check on your meal, I think there is a correlation with the increased likelihood of having a poor experience. In this case my thoughts were correct.

For Starters: Oysters on the half shell and Rockefeller split. Great! Bang bang shrimp, Boom! For Dinner: Grouper. Fantastic Tuna bowl. Damn! Top it off: Happy Hour beverages. Ask for Sharon!

This location always seem to be busy, but never a long wait. I've sat at both the bar area and the dining room, and experience has been about the same. The baked Rockefeller style oysters are amazing!! I also enjoyed the calamari - the sweet and spicy sauce is so tasty. Their fish is fresh and you have options to either get the item grilled with lemon, or a sauce on the side. Options include lime tomato garlic, mango salsa, herb pesto, pan asian sauce, and lemon butter. I couldn't choose between two different sauces, and I was able to select two at no charge. The complimentary bread is probably one of the best breads I've ever had... fresh, hot, crusty and did I mention hot? Sooo good.

Great service from our server Adam C. (According to my receipt). He was able to make recommendations since it was my first time for drinks and even my meal. He did a great job checking up on us and making sure everything was up to par. He was even able to switch my drink because it was not what I expected. Dinner was served perfectly and tasted amazing! The bang bang shrimp was an amazing appraiser! Definitely 5 yelp stars!

Food is very fresh here, Service is great as well. I would stick with ordering the seafood on the grill menu. I feel like that is where this place shines the best. I ordered the Shrimp Pad Thai. It was not really that good. Did not taste authentic. I should have known better, being a lover of thai food. If you order this be expecting a very americanized version of Pad Thai. For a fresh seafood restaurant the prices are very reasonable. Make sure you get BANG BANG SHRIMP! THE BEST

Very impressive for a chain! We were in town for a nationals volleyball tournament & we were just looking for some decent seafood. We decided on this place based on other's reviews and it did not disappoint! There were 4 adults in our group & 3 of us ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp. I actually got the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos, & they got the single person appetizer. This dish is a MUST! Very delicious! I had sweet potato mash for my side dish, which was also very good. My husband ordered the sirloin with asparagus & was very pleased. My son ordered the calamari & the lump crab soup (?) & said both were delicious. The staff was friendly from beginning to end & our server Bryan took good care of us. We would highly recommend this place & would happily return again.

Last night, my boyfriend and I had an impromptu date night. We thought let's try BoneFish!! What a good idea it was. We thought on a Sunday night it would be busy, and boy it was! Lots of large parties, hustle and bustle but we were seated immediately. Next, our waitress was attentive and sweet. I wish I remembered her name. She gave excellent recommendations!! We enjoyed dinner. My boyfriends grouper was a bit over cooked, but he's a Chef and picky about his food. We truly had a lovely evening!! Thank you, BoneFish!!!

Kind of dissapointed. We read the reviews before we went tonight and we decided to give it a chance. Unfortunately, the negative reviews were pretty much spot on. We had the Bang Bang shrimp and it was pretty good. I'll break it down to pros and cons. Pros: -The first part of the meal, the service was speedy but as the restaurant got busier the service got slower. A lot slower and sloppier. -The bread was fresh and came with a delicious olive oil/pesto dip. -The server was polite and happy to help. We got plenty of refills of water and drinks when we needed them. -The outdoor patio is nice and has a lounge area. -The kids activity/menu book is pretty impressive. Cons: -The food came out in varying degrees of temperature. Fried calamari was cold, and two of our orders side dishes were wrong. - I would have to say overall, overpriced. My wife had a shrimp and scallop dish. 24$. 3 small shrimp and 1 scallop. Pretty light on the fish, I would say for the price. Desert was their signature doughuts. $5 for three small doughnut holes. -We heard several apologies being made at the adjacent tables. It looked like we weren't the only ones receiving shoddy service. -Side dish of steamed broccoli was almost mush. I got the feeling that a lot of the problems at this place aren't the fault of the servers. I could sense some of them were frustrated with the kitchen. Overall, I would suggest going somewhere else for dinner. Too overvalued, obvious managerial problems and a lengthy dinner. Go for drinks and an app or 2 but anything more, be prepared for a marathon.

If it's Wednesday, it must be Bang Bang shrimp day at Bonefish! We all knew about the special day, so waited all day for happy hour to begin. And servers Matt and Thomas did not disappoint. The servings were hot and generous and that was all I needed. My wife and mother-in-law also had Caesar salads to go along with theirs, and my father-in-law had a cup of their delicious crab corn chowder. My wife and I stuck to one of our favorites, Curious Traveler Lemon Shandy. Nanny had a Chardonnay to go with her dinner, and Paw Paw got his favorite CC and 7. Another stellar night out in Orlando! We love this town!

My husband and I came here this past weekend to try the most raved about dish. You've guessed it the bang bang shrimp! As soon as we arrived we were seated. At first our service started off a little slow with our drinks, but picked up once we received them. We loved everything about this place, the food was amazing and yes the bang bang shrimp was all that and a bag of chips lol.... All in all we had a great experience and plan on coming back VERY soon!

The service was ok, to me it felt like it was a little rushed. I was never offered any water, but I don't know if that is part of their service. To start, I had the Ceviche, the Tuna sashimi and the mushroom flatbread. The Ceviche was ok nothing special. The Sashimi was incredible, very fresh and tasteful. But the flatbread let me down. It was described as having garlic, mozarella cheese and truffle essence, but it just tasted like crackers with mushroom. It was too toasted and flavorless. For Dinner I had the Kobe Burger, but that's a shame on me for eating a burger at a fish place. The burger was good, but nothing special. I don't think I'll be coming back here. There are way too many good places in that price range that I rather eat at.

Amazing first experience at bonefish for me and my boyfriend. Waiter was very nice and accomadating, i never felt like a bother to him. My boyfriend and i split the bang bang shrimp appetizer, which was more than enough for 2, and let me just say, best ive ever had in my life. I ordered the imperial tilapia and my boyfriend ordered the kobe burger. My tilapia was amazing, perfect flavor, perfectly cooked. I was very impresed. My boyfriends burger was amazing also, it was medium well, he really loved the soft warm bun. Overall A+. This is our new go-to restaurant.

I took my husband and boys here for their first time (this was only my second time, first was in Buffalo, NY...let me just say that I was SO disappointed. I really wanted my family to experience a nice, classy seafood restaurant on the East Coast since this was also our very first visit to Florida. Sara, our server, took awhile to come to our table to greet us. She was good. Appetizers and drinks came pretty quickly, but our entrees took so long, we went through 2 loaves of bread and was still looking for our food. Sara acknowledged this, but that didn't seem to help it any. Even when the manager came over to check in on us, I had to say to her that the food took too long to come out. She said she knew and offered us a free dessert - which also took awhile to come out! Seriously? And when our bill came, I caught that they charged us a sangria that I ordered, but never came and I completely forgot about because of the wait! Overall, the food and atmosphere was good. But, if you know that the kitchen was overwhelmed, say something and let us know! And knock off an appetizer for the trouble instead of offering us 1 free dessert and making us wait for that too! We weren't the last ones to be seated, but we were one of the last ones left in the restaurant!!!

Bad service, cold food, overcharged. Had to contact management to get the check fixed. This was after being notified by credit card company of the generous tip. Thought after everything they would have at least covered the check but nope. More places out there want my business. Haven't had any restaurant in a while that I have sworn to never go back but this is one of them. Could have just been a one time thing but the general manager either doesn't care or maybe this is just the norm at this location

Generally, I think the Bonefish Chain is "okay" but I have to give mad props to the way they handled our group of 20-ish. Our server (with some help) was on TOP of things - refilling drinks, clearing plates, delivering stuff, etc. Everyone got the right order, and I heard lots of comments about how good the food was from our group. Personally, I had salmon which I often avoid due to fears that it will be fishy + gross. Not this - nicely seasoned, well cooked and delicious all the way. If salmon always tasted like this, I'd eat it regularly. Management was also accommodating when booking our party. There isn't a catering menu, but they happily made us a custom menu. Prices were reasonable, the food was really very good and service was great. What's not to like? (Also of note - this Bonefish is located on a delightfully touristy and tacky road. Think lots of neon and giant gift shops. It's like the WalMart equivalent of the Vegas Strip. I say this in the most positive way possible)

Visiting this location for a second time (the first was right after they opened). Good food, good service, good price. Patient with dietary restrictions. Manager stopped by the table and we complimented our visit. We would happily go back. Update 8/12/14: Went back again today. No complaints, same as above! :)

This place wowed me... There was a long wait, because we came here on New Year's Day. This place is nice attire and the servers are friendly. While we were waiting, a server walked over to us and offered us some food, their bang bang shrimp. That is what impressed me the most. The food here was excellent, a rare find in Orlando. Orlando is very hard to find quality food, but here is the place. If you come here, definitely get the tacos... A must come especially if you stay at orange lake, as it is close and can be easily accessed.

Kelly W.
The food was on par with other Bonefish Grills. Normally I get fish, but I was in the mood for a burger, so I went with it. Very good! It was our server that I had a slight issue with. She whispered pretty much the entire time. I have no idea what she said her name was and for the most part I guessed what she was saying. Once our food was brought out we asked for ketchup and it took quite a while to get some. After that, she didn't come back to our table. No drink refills, nothing. We saw her go to other tables but I could never get her attention. She perked up more when we requested the check. Oh and I'm not sure how I feel about them running the credit card at the table. Seems odd for a place like that.

We had the Bang Bang Shrimp, and seasonal specials including the Mahi Mahi. We also had the blackberry cocktail, espresso martini, raspberry martini, and damn fine dirty martini (infused for 3 days). Everything was superb, and the service was phenomenal! We were pleasantly surprised by this restaurant and will definitely eat here again! Highly recommended!

Fellow Yelpers I'm a seafood junky, and I totally approve this joint! The fish is very fresh, appetizers are great. Perfect portions. Although most people would say they are too small. This place really did it right !! I'm very impressed! Great atmosphere and decorations as well They are popping up new locations everywhere. They don't seem to hold a lot of patrons so reservation is a good idea. Bang bang shrimp is a signature appetizer. They do a special on Wednesday for a discounted order it's gets the people excited and Wednesday is their super busy day of the week because of it. The fresh fish is usually on point. I have had a few instances where a medium rare ordered salmon came out well done. But with no problem they have fixed it for me. Desserts area great!! The macadamia nut brownie with raspberry sauce and house made whipped cream is great. Prices are a little high, but everything is good and this is expected from a seafood restaurant. I do recommend this place. Enjoy!!

This is a great restraint over all we have been here twice once in Georgia and the other in Florida. For a fancy restraint the prices aren't bad. Lots to choose from and plenty of deals. Gotta get the bang bang shrimp, it's a Starter but I get it as a meal

Well, we showed up at Bonefish because we thought they offered sushi, but they do not. However, we decided to stay anyway and had a great meal. We were able to sit right down when we arrived at 5:30 pm, but as we were leaving around 6:30 there was a wait. As much as I like Red Lobster's cheddar biscuits, the seafood at Bonefish Grill is far and away a million times fresher and better prepared for the same price-point. We started out with the item closest to our original want of sushi: the ahi tuna appetizer. We got the small order and it was about 3 pieces of both of us. I really loved the ahi tuna. The sauce was fantastic and it was very well prepared. Delicious. Since it was Sunday, they have happy hour until 6:30 pm. We ordered a couple beers and their pomegranate sangria. The sangria especially was very solid. For our meals I got the Bang Bang Shrimp tacos and the husband got the Fish tacos. He added avocado to his and it cost $0.50 extra, but it really kicked them up a notch. I loved my Bang Bang Shrimp tacos. SO good. Breaded and fried, but still tasted fresh and super flavorful. I would order these again in a heartbeat. Both dishes came with a side of the homemade chips and we liked these, but thought they needed a lot of salt. A great meal and well priced compared to the rest of anything near to Disney. A nice escape from the parks with fast and friendly service.

I have my concerns due to the poor reviews this October. I asked two people on my way into the restaurant how the food was. They both said excellent. I concur. Everything from the service to the quality of the food was excellent. This was our first visit to the restaurant but it won't be our last.

My husband and I were very excited to finally get a chance to go to Bonefish Grill and try the Bang Bang Shrimp, that my parents have been raving about for over a year, so while on our honeymoon, we made sure to make plans to go to dinner there as soon as we found out there was one near our resort. The restaurant was very well kept, and the wait time was not long, however our service was terrible. Our server took forever to get our drink orders. She took so long that we had already decided on food, and ordered drinks, appetizers and main course all together. By the time appetizers came out we had all finished our first round of sodas, and they had been sitting empty for quiet awhile, and we only received 1 out of the 2 apps that we ordered. We finished out bang Bang Shrimp (which was delicious and is what earned them the 2 stars in my eyes) before our server came to check on us again... Which is when she told us that she had ASSUMED that my Aunt's mussel order was her meal... Then she told us that the kitchen was backed up.......... But somehow about 10 minutes later, the mussels had magically been quickfired... If the kitchen was as backed up as she had expressed, they still would have taken a great deal longer. Yet again, our drinks were left empty for a good deal of time. When out food was served, my food was cold. Instead of complaining, we just quickly got out of the restaurant. We were there to celebrate our honeymoon and my husbands birthday, but the experience left us in a less than celebratory mood. I might try Bonefish again, but not at this location. I'm sad to say that we were very disappointed.

This was my first visit to Bonefish and I was not impressed! The only reason it gets 2 stars is the atmosphere. The prices at first seemed reasonable and got the fish and chips, but when food came I was disappointed for sure! The portion size was small for the cost and noticed everyone portions were small for the price. The fish was just as good as captain d's fast food and fries were average at best. If you like small portions for high prices then this is place, but I expect a decent portion when prices top $12 per entree. I will stick to my seafood buffets places.

First off, we've tried many restaurant on Irlo and this is by far the best restaurant to go to. So if you're a Yelper who doesn't like to read a whole review then just come in! Ambiance: fabulous. Lighting is low enough to be elegant and comforting. Artwork is gorgeous and it feels like a high end restaurant with very appealing prices. Full bar: great drink prices and Happy hour from 5-630 daily. They know how to make a wonderful Raspberry Martini and Manhattans. Service: couldn't have asked for better. Jennifer our waitress was phenomenal. Her enthusiasm was welcoming, she was very informed on their menu and recommended great entrees. She was simply amazing. Bryan, who we believe may have been a manager was very gracious and professional when we had a hiccup. Can say management is above all concerned about the guest's experience. Our family would like to thank Jennifer and Bryan for a great dining experience. Food: Appetizers - 1. Bang bang shrimp (it's a must, don't debate) 2. Calamari (sauce was delicious, cooked well) 3. Edamame (always a good choice and the portion was great) 4. Gyoza (mhmmmm good) Entrees - 1. Sirloin steak 11oz - A+, awesome meal! 2. Diablo Shrimp Fettuccine - A+, huge portion size that's delicious. 3. Rainbow Trout - A, cooked to perfection. 4. Lily's Chicken - B, chicken was great, maybe hold on the goat cheese but the broccoli was uh-mazing! 5. Flour less brownie - A+, just freaking order it! 6. Key Lime pie - A, very delicious. To sum it up, do yourself a favor and come to this wonderful location. It's a great experience, wonderful atmosphere, elegant ambiance and very very welcoming prices for what is offered. Come to California, Bonefish Grill, because we'd absolutely come back! Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Came in on a midweek night for an inpromptu dinner after touring the parks. Service was fantastic. Food was okay. My wife ordered the fish and chips which were outstanding. Three large pieces of tilapia, nicely battered and fried with good fries. I ordered a house special, the Lily's chicken. This was grilled checken breast baked with spinach, hearts of palm and a thick slab of cream cheese.. Chicken was way dry and overcooked. Yuck! Minus 1 star. We'll be back but I won't make the mistake of ordering chicken at a seafood restaurant again.

I know this is a chain but the staff make it feel like a stand alone restaurant. Really friendly bartenders who remember you and a kitchen staff that enjoy taking special requests...particularly when it involves increasing the spice level. Sit at the bar and you can't go wrong.
Always reliable. Best crab cakes around. Delicious salmon with Pan Asian sauce. Crusty, tasty bread. Our server, Adam, was friendly and very helpful. The Bonefish chain serves really good food at reasonable prices at all of their sites.

Savanna D.
Amazing experience here. Had the Bang Bang Shrimp on a flatbread and was astounded with how good it was. The sauce is what makes it. Both people with me had tilapia (one the Imperial Tilapia and the other tilapia with the lemon sauce) and they loved it. I had sirloin with lobster stuffed shrimp. The meat was cooked perfectly and the lobster tasted great. Would definitely recommend this to anyone.

Stopped for an early dinner on the way to taking my Mom to catch her flight home to England. She was in the mood for fish and we knew that this restaurant had just opened. We sat outside (still lovely and warm) and were greeted by a our lovely waitress, who was most attentive and professional during the whole meal. So if you go in at 5 it's a happy hour (hurrah).. so $3 G&T's all round... Next of course we had to have some bang bang shrimp... OMG...and some calamari.. both cooked to perfection and so much food! We all settled on good old fish and chips.. although it was tilapia, not my favorite, it was lightly battered and cooked to perfection.. we all had three large pieces.. each of us only managed two pieces. The fries were tasted, still with the skins on the potatoes and the tartar sauce zezty... the only thing missing was the mushy peas.. but then I am British!! The check was great value at $70 for 3 of us, Mom and I had two rounds of cocktails... Hubbie and I will be back...

We were on vacation so decided to splurge. We ordered the mixed grill for two which is $39. The mixed grill came with blackened tuna, grilled salmon and chilean sea bass, and BBQ shrimp with scallops. The tuna was spicy as expected so I ate all of that. My companion ate all the salmon and she said it was the best grilled salmon she ever tasted, including my own! Oh well. I absolutely loved the sea bass and I would order a full entree if I ever go to Bonefish again. The shrimp and scallops were just average. The BBQ sauce was sweet. I wouldn't mind splurging again and going back.

We saw her go to other tables but I could never get her attention. She perked up more when we requested the check. Oh and I'm not sure how I feel about them running the credit card at the table. Seems odd for a place like that.

Great food but, horrible service. Food was tardy and tuna was overcooked. Greeter? Never bothered to even say hello. Sat down was given food...no silverware. Get it together people.

We had the Bang Bang Shrimp, and seasonal specials including the Mahi Mahi. We also had the blackberry cocktail, espresso martini, raspberry martini, and damn fine dirty martini (infused for 3 days). Everything was superb, and the service was phenomenal! We were pleasantly surprised by this restaurant and will definitely eat here again! Highly recommended!

Fellow Yelpers I'm a seafood junky, and I totally approve this joint! The fish is very fresh, appetizers are great. Perfect portions. Although most people would say they are too small. This place really did it right !! I'm very impressed! Great atmosphere and decorations as well They are popping up new locations everywhere. They don't seem to hold a lot of patrons so reservation is a good idea. Bang bang shrimp is a signature appetizer. They do a special on Wednesday for a discounted order it's gets the people excited and Wednesday is their super busy day of the week because of it. The fresh fish is usually on point. I have had a few instances where a medium rare ordered salmon came out well done. But with no problem they have fixed it for me. Desserts area great!! The macadamia nut brownie with raspberry sauce and house made whipped cream is great. Prices are a little high, but everything is good and this is expected from a seafood restaurant. I do recommend this place. Enjoy!!

Kind of dissapointed. We read the reviews before we went tonight and we decided to give it a chance. Unfortunately, the negative reviews were pretty much spot on. We had the Bang Bang shrimp and it was pretty good. I'll break it down to pros and cons. Pros: -The first part of the meal, the service was speedy but as the restaurant got busier the service got slower. A lot slower and sloppier. -The bread was fresh and came with a delicious olive oil/pesto dip. -The server was polite and happy to help. We got plenty of refills of water and drinks when we needed them. -The outdoor patio is nice and has a lounge area. -The kids activity/menu book is pretty impressive. Cons: -The food came out in varying degrees of temperature. Fried calamari was cold, and two of our orders side dishes were wrong. - I would have to say overall, overpriced. My wife had a shrimp and scallop dish. 24$. 3 small shrimp and 1 scallop. Pretty light on the fish, I would say for the price. Desert was their signature doughuts. $5 for three small doughnut holes. -We heard several apologies being made at the adjacent tables. It looked like we weren't the only ones receiving shoddy service. -Side dish of steamed broccoli was almost mush. I got the feeling that a lot of the problems at this place aren't the fault of the servers. I could sense some of them were frustrated with the kitchen. Overall, I would suggest going somewhere else for dinner. Too overvalued, obvious managerial problems and a lengthy dinner. Go for drinks and an app or 2 but anything more, be prepared for a marathon.

If it's Wednesday, it must be Bang Bang shrimp day at Bonefish! We all knew about the special day, so waited all day for happy hour to begin. And servers Matt and Thomas did not disappoint. The servings were hot and generous and that was all I needed. My wife and mother-in-law also had Caesar salads to go along with theirs, and my father-in-law had a cup of their delicious crab corn chowder. My wife and I stuck to one of our favorites, Curious Traveler Lemon Shandy. Nanny had a Chardonnay to go with her dinner, and Paw Paw got his favorite CC and 7. Another stellar night out in Orlando! We love this town!

Amazing experience here. Had the Bang Bang Shrimp on a flatbread and was astounded with how good it was. The sauce is what makes it. Both people with me had tilapia (one the Imperial Tilapia and the other tilapia with the lemon sauce) and they loved it. I had sirloin with lobster stuffed shrimp. The meat was cooked perfectly and the lobster tasted great. Would definitely recommend this to anyone.

I took my husband and boys here for their first time (this was only my second time, first was in Buffalo, NY...let me just say that I was SO disappointed. I really wanted my family to experience a nice, classy seafood restaurant on the East Coast since this was also our very first visit to Florida. Sara, our server, took awhile to come to our table to greet us. She was good. Appetizers and drinks came pretty quickly, but our entrees took so long, we went through 2 loaves of bread and was still looking for our food. Sara acknowledged this, but that didn't seem to help it any. Even when the manager came over to check in on us, I had to say to her that the food took too long to come out. She said she knew and offered us a free dessert - which also took awhile to come out! Seriously? And when our bill came, I caught that they charged us a sangria that I ordered, but never came and I completely forgot about because of the wait! Overall, the food and atmosphere was good. But, if you know that the kitchen was overwhelmed, say something and let us know! And knock off an appetizer for the trouble instead of offering us 1 free dessert and making us wait for that too! We weren't the last ones to be seated, but we were one of the last ones left in the restaurant!!!

Fish tacos were fab. The ahi sashimi was seared. I may have missed the word "seared" in the description. It was delish but if it says sashimi I expect raw.

Bad service, cold food, overcharged. Had to contact management to get the check fixed. This was after being notified by credit card company of the generous tip. Thought after everything they would have at least covered the check but nope. More places out there want my business. Haven't had any restaurant in a while that I have sworn to never go back but this is one of them. Could have just been a one time thing but the general manager either doesn't care or maybe this is just the norm at this location

This is a great restraint over all we have been here twice once in Georgia and the other in Florida. For a fancy restraint the prices aren't bad. Lots to choose from and plenty of deals. Gotta get the bang bang shrimp, it's a Starter but I get it as a meal

Generally, I think the Bonefish Chain is "okay" but I have to give mad props to the way they handled our group of 20-ish. Our server (with some help) was on TOP of things - refilling drinks, clearing plates, delivering stuff, etc. Everyone got the right order, and I heard lots of comments about how good the food was from our group. Personally, I had salmon which I often avoid due to fears that it will be fishy + gross. Not this - nicely seasoned, well cooked and delicious all the way. If salmon always tasted like this, I'd eat it regularly. Management was also accommodating when booking our party. There isn't a catering menu, but they happily made us a custom menu. Prices were reasonable, the food was really very good and service was great. What's not to like? (Also of note - this Bonefish is located on a delightfully touristy and tacky road. Think lots of neon and giant gift shops. It's like the WalMart equivalent of the Vegas Strip. I say this in the most positive way possible)

Wow, WOw, WOW! Bang Bang Shrimp = Amazing Corn Chowder = Wonderful Sea Bass = Incredible Salmon = Good Prices = Pretty Good! Server = Great Overal = 10/10 If you are in the area you need to stop here. I was extremely impressed and could not be happier with our decision for dinner!!! We made reservations at 7, showed up early and they were immediately waiting for us. Sat right away and from that moment the experience was wonderful. Wish there was one back home but makes a great memory!

Great service from our server Adam C. (According to my receipt). He was able to make recommendations since it was my first time for drinks and even my meal. He did a great job checking up on us and making sure everything was up to par. He was even able to switch my drink because it was not what I expected. Dinner was served perfectly and tasted amazing! The bang bang shrimp was an amazing appraiser! Definitely 5 yelp stars!

Kearstin C.
Food is very fresh here, Service is great as well. I would stick with ordering the seafood on the grill menu. I feel like that is where this place shines the best. I ordered the Shrimp Pad Thai. It was not really that good. Did not taste authentic. I should have known better, being a lover of thai food. If you order this be expecting a very americanized version of Pad Thai. For a fresh seafood restaurant the prices are very reasonable. Make sure you get BANG BANG SHRIMP! THE BEST

Becka L.
Very impressive for a chain! We were in town for a nationals volleyball tournament & we were just looking for some decent seafood. We decided on this place based on other's reviews and it did not disappoint! There were 4 adults in our group & 3 of us ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp. I actually got the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos, & they got the single person appetizer. This dish is a MUST! Very delicious! I had sweet potato mash for my side dish, which was also very good. My husband ordered the sirloin with asparagus & was very pleased. My son ordered the calamari & the lump crab soup (?) & said both were delicious. The staff was friendly from beginning to end & our server Bryan took good care of us. We would highly recommend this place & would happily return again.

Last night, my boyfriend and I had an impromptu date night. We thought let's try BoneFish!! What a good idea it was. We thought on a Sunday night it would be busy, and boy it was! Lots of large parties, hustle and bustle but we were seated immediately. Next, our waitress was attentive and sweet. I wish I remembered her name. She gave excellent recommendations!! We enjoyed dinner. My boyfriends grouper was a bit over cooked, but he's a Chef and picky about his food. We truly had a lovely evening!! Thank you, BoneFish!!!

Good food and poor service. Too long of a wait for a restaurant that was very empty in the back. There were at least 6 empty tables in the back when we sat down after around 20 minutes for a party of 8. We were told 45 minutes, so it was great when we were paged early. That was one of the best parts of the meal. 4 of us received our entrees and waited on the other 4 to get served. The server said it was coming, but when we saw other tables get their food and were frustrated because as a family we expect to eat together. We made a comment that other people were brought their food and it seems like without question one basic expectation is that we should all be served together, not half the people served a good 5 minutes before the others. When the food finally came it was good, but nothing special or extraordinary and there is absolutely no reason I would ever want to visit this location. I asked if they still do a special occasion dessert. I was asked what it was for and told the waitress we were celebrating in between birthdays both for my mom who just had her birthday a few days ago and my nephew who has a birthday in a few days. Then nothing came for dessert. We received a free dessert a few weeks ago at another bonefish so I expected we would be treated to one or two. Before we left I pulled up their website and he first thing on the website is an advertisement for a 15% off coupon. I told the server before he came with our bills and when he came back, everyone else dining with us did not have the 15% off. I asked if we all needed to be on one bill to get the discount or needed to pull it up on our phones. He told everyone to get the offer on their phones and he said he would talk to the manager. Eventually he did give us all the discount, but it was an extra hassle for no reason when it is not a targeted offer or something specific to me. If you go to their website you don't even have to click a link, it is the first thing shown on the top of their page. The manager never came to check on us. It seems like a simple gesture to make sure your customers are happy. I prefer a visit from a manager even though 90% of my meals are issue free. It makes me feel good knowing the manager is engaged with their guests and their experiences and able to ensure their servers are delivering on their brand experience. When a manager fails to check on your meal, I think there is a correlation with the increased likelihood of having a poor experience. In this case my thoughts were correct.

This location always seem to be busy, but never a long wait. I've sat at both the bar area and the dining room, and experience has been about the same. The baked Rockefeller style oysters are amazing!! I also enjoyed the calamari - the sweet and spicy sauce is so tasty. Their fish is fresh and you have options to either get the item grilled with lemon, or a sauce on the side. Options include lime tomato garlic, mango salsa, herb pesto, pan asian sauce, and lemon butter. I couldn't choose between two different sauces, and I was able to select two at no charge. The complimentary bread is probably one of the best breads I've ever had... fresh, hot, crusty and did I mention hot? Sooo good.

I know this is a chain but the staff make it feel like a stand alone restaurant. Really friendly bartenders who remember you and a kitchen staff that enjoy taking special requests...particularly when it involves increasing the spice level. Sit at the bar and you can't go wrong.
Always reliable. Best crab cakes around. Delicious salmon with Pan Asian sauce. Crusty, tasty bread. Our server, Adam, was friendly and very helpful. The Bonefish chain serves really good food at reasonable prices at all of their sites.

Well, we showed up at Bonefish because we thought they offered sushi, but they do not. However, we decided to stay anyway and had a great meal. We were able to sit right down when we arrived at 5:30 pm, but as we were leaving around 6:30 there was a wait. As much as I like Red Lobster's cheddar biscuits, the seafood at Bonefish Grill is far and away a million times fresher and better prepared for the same price-point. We started out with the item closest to our original want of sushi: the ahi tuna appetizer. We got the small order and it was about 3 pieces of both of us. I really loved the ahi tuna. The sauce was fantastic and it was very well prepared. Delicious. Since it was Sunday, they have happy hour until 6:30 pm. We ordered a couple beers and their pomegranate sangria. The sangria especially was very solid. For our meals I got the Bang Bang Shrimp tacos and the husband got the Fish tacos. He added avocado to his and it cost $0.50 extra, but it really kicked them up a notch. I loved my Bang Bang Shrimp tacos. SO good. Breaded and fried, but still tasted fresh and super flavorful. I would order these again in a heartbeat. Both dishes came with a side of the homemade chips and we liked these, but thought they needed a lot of salt. A great meal and well priced compared to the rest of anything near to Disney. A nice escape from the parks with fast and friendly service.

I have my concerns due to the poor reviews this October. I asked two people on my way into the restaurant how the food was. They both said excellent. I concur. Everything from the service to the quality of the food was excellent. This was our first visit to the restaurant but it won't be our last.

We were on vacation so decided to splurge. We ordered the mixed grill for two which is $39. The mixed grill came with blackened tuna, grilled salmon and chilean sea bass, and BBQ shrimp with scallops. The tuna was spicy as expected so I ate all of that. My companion ate all the salmon and she said it was the best grilled salmon she ever tasted, including my own! Oh well. I absolutely loved the sea bass and I would order a full entree if I ever go to Bonefish again. The shrimp and scallops were just average. The BBQ sauce was sweet. I wouldn't mind splurging again and going back.

My husband and I were very excited to finally get a chance to go to Bonefish Grill and try the Bang Bang Shrimp, that my parents have been raving about for over a year, so while on our honeymoon, we made sure to make plans to go to dinner there as soon as we found out there was one near our resort. The restaurant was very well kept, and the wait time was not long, however our service was terrible. Our server took forever to get our drink orders. She took so long that we had already decided on food, and ordered drinks, appetizers and main course all together. By the time appetizers came out we had all finished our first round of sodas, and they had been sitting empty for quiet awhile, and we only received 1 out of the 2 apps that we ordered. We finished out bang Bang Shrimp (which was delicious and is what earned them the 2 stars in my eyes) before our server came to check on us again... Which is when she told us that she had ASSUMED that my Aunt's mussel order was her meal... Then she told us that the kitchen was backed up.......... But somehow about 10 minutes later, the mussels had magically been quickfired... If the kitchen was as backed up as she had expressed, they still would have taken a great deal longer. Yet again, our drinks were left empty for a good deal of time. When out food was served, my food was cold. Instead of complaining, we just quickly got out of the restaurant. We were there to celebrate our honeymoon and my husbands birthday, but the experience left us in a less than celebratory mood. I might try Bonefish again, but not at this location. I'm sad to say that we were very disappointed.

This was my first visit to Bonefish and I was not impressed! The only reason it gets 2 stars is the atmosphere. The prices at first seemed reasonable and got the fish and chips, but when food came I was disappointed for sure! The portion size was small for the cost and noticed everyone portions were small for the price. The fish was just as good as captain d's fast food and fries were average at best. If you like small portions for high prices then this is place, but I expect a decent portion when prices top $12 per entree. I will stick to my seafood buffets places.

First off, we've tried many restaurant on Irlo and this is by far the best restaurant to go to. So if you're a Yelper who doesn't like to read a whole review then just come in! Ambiance: fabulous. Lighting is low enough to be elegant and comforting. Artwork is gorgeous and it feels like a high end restaurant with very appealing prices. Full bar: great drink prices and Happy hour from 5-630 daily. They know how to make a wonderful Raspberry Martini and Manhattans. Service: couldn't have asked for better. Jennifer our waitress was phenomenal. Her enthusiasm was welcoming, she was very informed on their menu and recommended great entrees. She was simply amazing. Bryan, who we believe may have been a manager was very gracious and professional when we had a hiccup. Can say management is above all concerned about the guest's experience. Our family would like to thank Jennifer and Bryan for a great dining experience. Food: Appetizers - 1. Bang bang shrimp (it's a must, don't debate) 2. Calamari (sauce was delicious, cooked well) 3. Edamame (always a good choice and the portion was great) 4. Gyoza (mhmmmm good) Entrees - 1. Sirloin steak 11oz - A+, awesome meal! 2. Diablo Shrimp Fettuccine - A+, huge portion size that's delicious. 3. Rainbow Trout - A, cooked to perfection. 4. Lily's Chicken - B, chicken was great, maybe hold on the goat cheese but the broccoli was uh-mazing! 5. Flour less brownie - A+, just freaking order it! 6. Key Lime pie - A, very delicious. To sum it up, do yourself a favor and come to this wonderful location. It's a great experience, wonderful atmosphere, elegant ambiance and very very welcoming prices for what is offered. Come to California, Bonefish Grill, because we'd absolutely come back! Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Came in on a midweek night for an inpromptu dinner after touring the parks. Service was fantastic. Food was okay. My wife ordered the fish and chips which were outstanding. Three large pieces of tilapia, nicely battered and fried with good fries. I ordered a house special, the Lily's chicken. This was grilled checken breast baked with spinach, hearts of palm and a thick slab of cream cheese.. Chicken was way dry and overcooked. Yuck! Minus 1 star. We'll be back but I won't make the mistake of ordering chicken at a seafood restaurant again.

Stopped for an early dinner on the way to taking my Mom to catch her flight home to England. She was in the mood for fish and we knew that this restaurant had just opened. We sat outside (still lovely and warm) and were greeted by a our lovely waitress, who was most attentive and professional during the whole meal. So if you go in at 5 it's a happy hour (hurrah).. so $3 G&T's all round... Next of course we had to have some bang bang shrimp... OMG...and some calamari.. both cooked to perfection and so much food! We all settled on good old fish and chips.. although it was tilapia, not my favorite, it was lightly battered and cooked to perfection.. we all had three large pieces.. each of us only managed two pieces. The fries were tasted, still with the skins on the potatoes and the tartar sauce zezty... the only thing missing was the mushy peas.. but then I am British!! The check was great value at $70 for 3 of us, Mom and I had two rounds of cocktails... Hubbie and I will be back...

BangBang shrimp was awesome however the remainder of our evening was less than stellar. 25 minutes after shrimp came to the bartop bartender finally came back to take our order. We ordered salads and dinner, within about 7 minutes our salads were delivered from the barside. At the same time our dinner was being delivered from behind us. It took us 90 minutes from the time we were seated to get our check.never did get my coffee

My family and I ate at the Kissimmee, FL location last night. I had the salmon special and Bang Bang shrimp and my wife had the Sea bass. Both my wife & daughter have gluten allergies (and my daughter is also allergic to dairy.) The service and food couldn't have been better. The gluten-free menu was impressive and, as my daughter said, they didn't make her allergies a big deal which means the staff was attentive but low key. My younger daughter had the kids menu chicken fingers and fries. Highly recommended for those on vacation looking for a great meal at reasonable prices. Please open a Massachusetts location (preferably north of Boston!)

Tis is a newer Bonefish location. My wife and I like Bonefish and choose to eat at our Lancaster, PA location frequently. Bonefish certainly is a chain but their menu choices are good and generally well prepared. We had no wait to be seated on a wednesday evening. The service was very prompt. For those not familiar, on Wednesday Bonefish Grille offers their popular Bang Bang Shrimp appetizer for $5. We love this menu item and both ordered one. Yummy. I also had fish tacos (pretty good) and my wife had the fish chowder (she thought the amount for the price was somewhat small and it didn't seem to include much seafood in the creamy mixture). All in all a good choice for our dinner.

Bonefish Grill is a good place to have a nice dinner with healthy food options to choose from. This location also boasts little to no wait times! Something hard to find at many of their restaurants. I have been twice and both times the servers are very professional and kind. They were able to server our meal in a timely manner without over-rushing the process. I would certainly recommend trying this location, especially if you're on a date!

Great new location right at the Gateway to Walt Disney World. The restaurant is clean, our server was attentive & knowledgable and the food was good as it always is at Bonefish. The only thing I didn't like was the slimy crab cake. I expected more on that from a restaurant specializing in seafood. But the corn & seafood chowder was hearty, the bread & olive oil was great and the food in general was delicious. I would recommend the place!

I first stumbled upon Bonefish Grill when I was in Miami some years ago. On a recent trip, I noticed this location in passing. I loved the first visit to this place, and had to check out this site. We walked in about 10pm on a Saturday night (this location is scheduled to close at 11:30pm on Saturdays). The place was pretty much dead, but the venue was clean. In addition, the host was near the door prepared for anyone who walked in. To me this shows, through first impression, that the staff is not lazy. We requested to be seated outside since it was a nice evening, and as expected from the nearly empty inside the outside was empty. Note: There is a nice outside patio area w\ patio lounge furniture if you just want to have drinks, or waiting on a table. Our waitor was friendly, but you could tell it had been a long slow night for him. Coming from a customer service background, I could feel his pain. He was very attentive and helpful with our questions, and prompt with our needs. I ordered the Filet Mignon medium rare w\ a garlic gargonzola butter. To add, steamed broccoli on the side. Let me tell you, I'm a picky f*cker when it comes to food prep, and this meal was PERFECT. When I asked for medium rare, I received a flawless medium rare filet. The garlic gorganzola was the icing on the cake, this stuff is an option, but make it a must. The broccoli was not overly steamed, and came out just right. Again, Bonefish Grill impressed. I really wish more people in the area would go to this restaurant, because it's truely just a spot on place. I cannot wait for the one in Rockland County (Nanuet) to open up already. If it's anything like the ones I've been to in Florida, then there's much to look forward too.

I asked if we all needed to be on one bill to get the discount or needed to pull it up on our phones. He told everyone to get the offer on their phones and he said he would talk to the manager. Eventually he did give us all the discount, but it was an extra hassle for no reason when it is not a targeted offer or something specific to me. If you go to their website you don't even have to click a link, it is the first thing shown on the top of their page. The manager never came to check on us. It seems like a simple gesture to make sure your customers are happy. I prefer a visit from a manager even though 90% of my meals are issue free. It makes me feel good knowing the manager is engaged with their guests and their experiences and able to ensure their servers are delivering on their brand experience. When a manager fails to check on your meal, I think there is a correlation with the increased likelihood of having a poor experience. In this case my thoughts were correct.

For Starters: Oysters on the half shell and Rockefeller split. Great! Bang bang shrimp, Boom! For Dinner: Grouper. Fantastic Tuna bowl. Damn! Top it off: Happy Hour beverages. Ask for Sharon!

This location always seem to be busy, but never a long wait. I've sat at both the bar area and the dining room, and experience has been about the same. The baked Rockefeller style oysters are amazing!! I also enjoyed the calamari - the sweet and spicy sauce is so tasty. Their fish is fresh and you have options to either get the item grilled with lemon, or a sauce on the side. Options include lime tomato garlic, mango salsa, herb pesto, pan asian sauce, and lemon butter. I couldn't choose between two different sauces, and I was able to select two at no charge. The complimentary bread is probably one of the best breads I've ever had... fresh, hot, crusty and did I mention hot? Sooo good.

Great service from our server Adam C. (According to my receipt). He was able to make recommendations since it was my first time for drinks and even my meal. He did a great job checking up on us and making sure everything was up to par. He was even able to switch my drink because it was not what I expected. Dinner was served perfectly and tasted amazing! The bang bang shrimp was an amazing appraiser! Definitely 5 yelp stars!
(5)Kearstin C.
Food is very fresh here, Service is great as well. I would stick with ordering the seafood on the grill menu. I feel like that is where this place shines the best. I ordered the Shrimp Pad Thai. It was not really that good. Did not taste authentic. I should have known better, being a lover of thai food. If you order this be expecting a very americanized version of Pad Thai. For a fresh seafood restaurant the prices are very reasonable. Make sure you get BANG BANG SHRIMP! THE BEST

Very impressive for a chain! We were in town for a nationals volleyball tournament & we were just looking for some decent seafood. We decided on this place based on other's reviews and it did not disappoint! There were 4 adults in our group & 3 of us ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp. I actually got the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos, & they got the single person appetizer. This dish is a MUST! Very delicious! I had sweet potato mash for my side dish, which was also very good. My husband ordered the sirloin with asparagus & was very pleased. My son ordered the calamari & the lump crab soup (?) & said both were delicious. The staff was friendly from beginning to end & our server Bryan took good care of us. We would highly recommend this place & would happily return again.
(5)Brian K.
We had Bang Bang Shrimp and the Thai Coconut Shrimp both where amazing. John was our server we sat in the bar area and had excellent service!
(5)Rafael C.
First time coming to this restaurant and the food is amazing, I ordered the bang bang shrimp as a meal with the crab fried rice and it looked great, tasted even better.
(5)Sarah C.
Last night, my boyfriend and I had an impromptu date night. We thought let's try BoneFish!! What a good idea it was. We thought on a Sunday night it would be busy, and boy it was! Lots of large parties, hustle and bustle but we were seated immediately. Next, our waitress was attentive and sweet. I wish I remembered her name. She gave excellent recommendations!! We enjoyed dinner. My boyfriends grouper was a bit over cooked, but he's a Chef and picky about his food. We truly had a lovely evening!! Thank you, BoneFish!!!

Kind of dissapointed. We read the reviews before we went tonight and we decided to give it a chance. Unfortunately, the negative reviews were pretty much spot on. We had the Bang Bang shrimp and it was pretty good. I'll break it down to pros and cons. Pros: -The first part of the meal, the service was speedy but as the restaurant got busier the service got slower. A lot slower and sloppier. -The bread was fresh and came with a delicious olive oil/pesto dip. -The server was polite and happy to help. We got plenty of refills of water and drinks when we needed them. -The outdoor patio is nice and has a lounge area. -The kids activity/menu book is pretty impressive. Cons: -The food came out in varying degrees of temperature. Fried calamari was cold, and two of our orders side dishes were wrong. - I would have to say overall, overpriced. My wife had a shrimp and scallop dish. 24$. 3 small shrimp and 1 scallop. Pretty light on the fish, I would say for the price. Desert was their signature doughuts. $5 for three small doughnut holes. -We heard several apologies being made at the adjacent tables. It looked like we weren't the only ones receiving shoddy service. -Side dish of steamed broccoli was almost mush. I got the feeling that a lot of the problems at this place aren't the fault of the servers. I could sense some of them were frustrated with the kitchen. Overall, I would suggest going somewhere else for dinner. Too overvalued, obvious managerial problems and a lengthy dinner. Go for drinks and an app or 2 but anything more, be prepared for a marathon.

If it's Wednesday, it must be Bang Bang shrimp day at Bonefish! We all knew about the special day, so waited all day for happy hour to begin. And servers Matt and Thomas did not disappoint. The servings were hot and generous and that was all I needed. My wife and mother-in-law also had Caesar salads to go along with theirs, and my father-in-law had a cup of their delicious crab corn chowder. My wife and I stuck to one of our favorites, Curious Traveler Lemon Shandy. Nanny had a Chardonnay to go with her dinner, and Paw Paw got his favorite CC and 7. Another stellar night out in Orlando! We love this town!
(5)Will G.
Had a great dinner with my bon boncita The service and food and customers were excellent ..we will return I had the sirloin and crab cake and she had the salmon The wines were delicious and the boricua bartender is a very attentive salesperson
(5)Kevin M.
Decent service, the food was well prepared and reasonably priced. The only reason I give it three stars is because I had heard such good things about this place and I thought reality didnt match what I had heard.
(3)Gerald F.
Great sushi tuna. Fantastic Thai shrimp. Haddock was delish. Bread and olive oil was a great homemade taste. I love their seafood. Wifey loves lobster rolls.
(5)Pamela R.
My husband and I came here this past weekend to try the most raved about dish. You've guessed it the bang bang shrimp! As soon as we arrived we were seated. At first our service started off a little slow with our drinks, but picked up once we received them. We loved everything about this place, the food was amazing and yes the bang bang shrimp was all that and a bag of chips lol.... All in all we had a great experience and plan on coming back VERY soon!
(5)Jo S.
Food was excellent except the oysters were too grity for my taste. We also had a little wait even with a reservation. Our server Carly made up for any negatives by being attentive and patient. Overall a great experience on our anniversary!
(4)Angel C.
The service was ok, to me it felt like it was a little rushed. I was never offered any water, but I don't know if that is part of their service. To start, I had the Ceviche, the Tuna sashimi and the mushroom flatbread. The Ceviche was ok nothing special. The Sashimi was incredible, very fresh and tasteful. But the flatbread let me down. It was described as having garlic, mozarella cheese and truffle essence, but it just tasted like crackers with mushroom. It was too toasted and flavorless. For Dinner I had the Kobe Burger, but that's a shame on me for eating a burger at a fish place. The burger was good, but nothing special. I don't think I'll be coming back here. There are way too many good places in that price range that I rather eat at.
(3)Rachel S.
Amazing first experience at bonefish for me and my boyfriend. Waiter was very nice and accomadating, i never felt like a bother to him. My boyfriend and i split the bang bang shrimp appetizer, which was more than enough for 2, and let me just say, best ive ever had in my life. I ordered the imperial tilapia and my boyfriend ordered the kobe burger. My tilapia was amazing, perfect flavor, perfectly cooked. I was very impresed. My boyfriends burger was amazing also, it was medium well, he really loved the soft warm bun. Overall A+. This is our new go-to restaurant.
(5)Jenn F.
Excellent meal. Attentive server. Pear martini spot on! Bread is awesome! Sea bass was excellent. We got the the larger portion and added a salad and split it all. Kids popcorn shrimp was awesome! Definitely to return.
(5)JoAnn P.
I took my husband and boys here for their first time (this was only my second time, first was in Buffalo, NY...let me just say that I was SO disappointed. I really wanted my family to experience a nice, classy seafood restaurant on the East Coast since this was also our very first visit to Florida. Sara, our server, took awhile to come to our table to greet us. She was good. Appetizers and drinks came pretty quickly, but our entrees took so long, we went through 2 loaves of bread and was still looking for our food. Sara acknowledged this, but that didn't seem to help it any. Even when the manager came over to check in on us, I had to say to her that the food took too long to come out. She said she knew and offered us a free dessert - which also took awhile to come out! Seriously? And when our bill came, I caught that they charged us a sangria that I ordered, but never came and I completely forgot about because of the wait! Overall, the food and atmosphere was good. But, if you know that the kitchen was overwhelmed, say something and let us know! And knock off an appetizer for the trouble instead of offering us 1 free dessert and making us wait for that too! We weren't the last ones to be seated, but we were one of the last ones left in the restaurant!!!
(3)Gwen K.
Fish tacos were fab. The ahi sashimi was seared. I may have missed the word "seared" in the description. It was delish but if it says sashimi I expect raw.
(5)Fiona D.
Nice bottle of wine for $28 & good quality food. Portions are perfect size not too big. Make sure you use the $10 off coupon on their website!
(5)Oopey A.
Very good service with Melvin:) the ceviche was perfect....all the fish and steak was cooked perfectly but most importantly was the Hawaiian martini...absolutely amazing!!! A must have!!!
(5)Shawn L.
Bad service, cold food, overcharged. Had to contact management to get the check fixed. This was after being notified by credit card company of the generous tip. Thought after everything they would have at least covered the check but nope. More places out there want my business. Haven't had any restaurant in a while that I have sworn to never go back but this is one of them. Could have just been a one time thing but the general manager either doesn't care or maybe this is just the norm at this location
(1)Joanna T.
Generally, I think the Bonefish Chain is "okay" but I have to give mad props to the way they handled our group of 20-ish. Our server (with some help) was on TOP of things - refilling drinks, clearing plates, delivering stuff, etc. Everyone got the right order, and I heard lots of comments about how good the food was from our group. Personally, I had salmon which I often avoid due to fears that it will be fishy + gross. Not this - nicely seasoned, well cooked and delicious all the way. If salmon always tasted like this, I'd eat it regularly. Management was also accommodating when booking our party. There isn't a catering menu, but they happily made us a custom menu. Prices were reasonable, the food was really very good and service was great. What's not to like? (Also of note - this Bonefish is located on a delightfully touristy and tacky road. Think lots of neon and giant gift shops. It's like the WalMart equivalent of the Vegas Strip. I say this in the most positive way possible)
(4)Andrea R.
Visiting this location for a second time (the first was right after they opened). Good food, good service, good price. Patient with dietary restrictions. Manager stopped by the table and we complimented our visit. We would happily go back. Update 8/12/14: Went back again today. No complaints, same as above! :)
(4)Derek W.
This place wowed me... There was a long wait, because we came here on New Year's Day. This place is nice attire and the servers are friendly. While we were waiting, a server walked over to us and offered us some food, their bang bang shrimp. That is what impressed me the most. The food here was excellent, a rare find in Orlando. Orlando is very hard to find quality food, but here is the place. If you come here, definitely get the tacos... A must come especially if you stay at orange lake, as it is close and can be easily accessed.
(5)Kelly W.
The food was on par with other Bonefish Grills. Normally I get fish, but I was in the mood for a burger, so I went with it. Very good! It was our server that I had a slight issue with. She whispered pretty much the entire time. I have no idea what she said her name was and for the most part I guessed what she was saying. Once our food was brought out we asked for ketchup and it took quite a while to get some. After that, she didn't come back to our table. No drink refills, nothing. We saw her go to other tables but I could never get her attention. She perked up more when we requested the check. Oh and I'm not sure how I feel about them running the credit card at the table. Seems odd for a place like that.
(3)Denise L.
Great food but, horrible service. Food was tardy and tuna was overcooked. Greeter? Never bothered to even say hello. Sat down was given food...no silverware. Get it together people.
(3)Cheryl D.
We had the Bang Bang Shrimp, and seasonal specials including the Mahi Mahi. We also had the blackberry cocktail, espresso martini, raspberry martini, and damn fine dirty martini (infused for 3 days). Everything was superb, and the service was phenomenal! We were pleasantly surprised by this restaurant and will definitely eat here again! Highly recommended!
(4)Scott R.
Fellow Yelpers I'm a seafood junky, and I totally approve this joint! The fish is very fresh, appetizers are great. Perfect portions. Although most people would say they are too small. This place really did it right !! I'm very impressed! Great atmosphere and decorations as well They are popping up new locations everywhere. They don't seem to hold a lot of patrons so reservation is a good idea. Bang bang shrimp is a signature appetizer. They do a special on Wednesday for a discounted order it's gets the people excited and Wednesday is their super busy day of the week because of it. The fresh fish is usually on point. I have had a few instances where a medium rare ordered salmon came out well done. But with no problem they have fixed it for me. Desserts area great!! The macadamia nut brownie with raspberry sauce and house made whipped cream is great. Prices are a little high, but everything is good and this is expected from a seafood restaurant. I do recommend this place. Enjoy!!
(4)Michael B.
This is a great restraint over all we have been here twice once in Georgia and the other in Florida. For a fancy restraint the prices aren't bad. Lots to choose from and plenty of deals. Gotta get the bang bang shrimp, it's a Starter but I get it as a meal
(4)Courtney L.
Well, we showed up at Bonefish because we thought they offered sushi, but they do not. However, we decided to stay anyway and had a great meal. We were able to sit right down when we arrived at 5:30 pm, but as we were leaving around 6:30 there was a wait. As much as I like Red Lobster's cheddar biscuits, the seafood at Bonefish Grill is far and away a million times fresher and better prepared for the same price-point. We started out with the item closest to our original want of sushi: the ahi tuna appetizer. We got the small order and it was about 3 pieces of both of us. I really loved the ahi tuna. The sauce was fantastic and it was very well prepared. Delicious. Since it was Sunday, they have happy hour until 6:30 pm. We ordered a couple beers and their pomegranate sangria. The sangria especially was very solid. For our meals I got the Bang Bang Shrimp tacos and the husband got the Fish tacos. He added avocado to his and it cost $0.50 extra, but it really kicked them up a notch. I loved my Bang Bang Shrimp tacos. SO good. Breaded and fried, but still tasted fresh and super flavorful. I would order these again in a heartbeat. Both dishes came with a side of the homemade chips and we liked these, but thought they needed a lot of salt. A great meal and well priced compared to the rest of anything near to Disney. A nice escape from the parks with fast and friendly service.
(4)Simon C.
I have my concerns due to the poor reviews this October. I asked two people on my way into the restaurant how the food was. They both said excellent. I concur. Everything from the service to the quality of the food was excellent. This was our first visit to the restaurant but it won't be our last.
(4)Catharine C.
My husband and I were very excited to finally get a chance to go to Bonefish Grill and try the Bang Bang Shrimp, that my parents have been raving about for over a year, so while on our honeymoon, we made sure to make plans to go to dinner there as soon as we found out there was one near our resort. The restaurant was very well kept, and the wait time was not long, however our service was terrible. Our server took forever to get our drink orders. She took so long that we had already decided on food, and ordered drinks, appetizers and main course all together. By the time appetizers came out we had all finished our first round of sodas, and they had been sitting empty for quiet awhile, and we only received 1 out of the 2 apps that we ordered. We finished out bang Bang Shrimp (which was delicious and is what earned them the 2 stars in my eyes) before our server came to check on us again... Which is when she told us that she had ASSUMED that my Aunt's mussel order was her meal... Then she told us that the kitchen was backed up.......... But somehow about 10 minutes later, the mussels had magically been quickfired... If the kitchen was as backed up as she had expressed, they still would have taken a great deal longer. Yet again, our drinks were left empty for a good deal of time. When out food was served, my food was cold. Instead of complaining, we just quickly got out of the restaurant. We were there to celebrate our honeymoon and my husbands birthday, but the experience left us in a less than celebratory mood. I might try Bonefish again, but not at this location. I'm sad to say that we were very disappointed.
(2)L K.
Had the bang shrimp tacos and they were very tasty. Three were served in a taco rack and other than wanting one more, they were great.
(4)Kevin S.
This was my first visit to Bonefish and I was not impressed! The only reason it gets 2 stars is the atmosphere. The prices at first seemed reasonable and got the fish and chips, but when food came I was disappointed for sure! The portion size was small for the cost and noticed everyone portions were small for the price. The fish was just as good as captain d's fast food and fries were average at best. If you like small portions for high prices then this is place, but I expect a decent portion when prices top $12 per entree. I will stick to my seafood buffets places.
(2)Ken B.
1st we really like the Bonefish, and the staff here was great. Good to get away from Disneyworld rush. On our GPS.
(5)Matthew H.
First off, we've tried many restaurant on Irlo and this is by far the best restaurant to go to. So if you're a Yelper who doesn't like to read a whole review then just come in! Ambiance: fabulous. Lighting is low enough to be elegant and comforting. Artwork is gorgeous and it feels like a high end restaurant with very appealing prices. Full bar: great drink prices and Happy hour from 5-630 daily. They know how to make a wonderful Raspberry Martini and Manhattans. Service: couldn't have asked for better. Jennifer our waitress was phenomenal. Her enthusiasm was welcoming, she was very informed on their menu and recommended great entrees. She was simply amazing. Bryan, who we believe may have been a manager was very gracious and professional when we had a hiccup. Can say management is above all concerned about the guest's experience. Our family would like to thank Jennifer and Bryan for a great dining experience. Food: Appetizers - 1. Bang bang shrimp (it's a must, don't debate) 2. Calamari (sauce was delicious, cooked well) 3. Edamame (always a good choice and the portion was great) 4. Gyoza (mhmmmm good) Entrees - 1. Sirloin steak 11oz - A+, awesome meal! 2. Diablo Shrimp Fettuccine - A+, huge portion size that's delicious. 3. Rainbow Trout - A, cooked to perfection. 4. Lily's Chicken - B, chicken was great, maybe hold on the goat cheese but the broccoli was uh-mazing! 5. Flour less brownie - A+, just freaking order it! 6. Key Lime pie - A, very delicious. To sum it up, do yourself a favor and come to this wonderful location. It's a great experience, wonderful atmosphere, elegant ambiance and very very welcoming prices for what is offered. Come to California, Bonefish Grill, because we'd absolutely come back! Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Started out sketchy with host, and initial experience... However KATHY the mgr recovered very well and assured us of the standard we should expect... We are going back on Thursday... Thanks Kathy!
(4)Steve C.
Came in on a midweek night for an inpromptu dinner after touring the parks. Service was fantastic. Food was okay. My wife ordered the fish and chips which were outstanding. Three large pieces of tilapia, nicely battered and fried with good fries. I ordered a house special, the Lily's chicken. This was grilled checken breast baked with spinach, hearts of palm and a thick slab of cream cheese.. Chicken was way dry and overcooked. Yuck! Minus 1 star. We'll be back but I won't make the mistake of ordering chicken at a seafood restaurant again.
(3)John V.
I know this is a chain but the staff make it feel like a stand alone restaurant. Really friendly bartenders who remember you and a kitchen staff that enjoy taking special requests...particularly when it involves increasing the spice level. Sit at the bar and you can't go wrong.
(5)Mark K.
First time at the Bonefish in Orlando. Have dined many times at Bonefish in Venice Florida. Ordered apps we love, Bang Bang Shrimp(quite possibly my favorite appetizer anywhere)-sauce has a tangy zip that pleases all palates, crab cakes-good and do not seem to have much filler, and bacon wrapped scallops-excellent flavor. Ordered special Filet and lobster Thermidor. Green beans were lightly sautéed and very good. Filet and Thermidor were perfect complement, however ordered filet medium and middle was very rare exposing what may have been a lower quality cut... They put it back on the grill and got it right as manager brought it out. Service was stellar...timely, engaging, and upbeat. Key lime pie was just dart enough. Overall, excellent experience even given one of four entrees not quite cooked on the money. Love bonefish
(5)Randy K.
Always reliable. Best crab cakes around. Delicious salmon with Pan Asian sauce. Crusty, tasty bread. Our server, Adam, was friendly and very helpful. The Bonefish chain serves really good food at reasonable prices at all of their sites.
(5)Savanna D.
Amazing experience here. Had the Bang Bang Shrimp on a flatbread and was astounded with how good it was. The sauce is what makes it. Both people with me had tilapia (one the Imperial Tilapia and the other tilapia with the lemon sauce) and they loved it. I had sirloin with lobster stuffed shrimp. The meat was cooked perfectly and the lobster tasted great. Would definitely recommend this to anyone.
(5)Dewayne S.
Starting with the staff. Very knowledgeable on the products they are pushing out. I stopped by to watch Monday night football not pack. As usual I got the ahi tuna and it was great. I would recommend. It was the best I've had at any Bonefish Grill, Ever!

Stopped for an early dinner on the way to taking my Mom to catch her flight home to England. She was in the mood for fish and we knew that this restaurant had just opened. We sat outside (still lovely and warm) and were greeted by a our lovely waitress, who was most attentive and professional during the whole meal. So if you go in at 5 it's a happy hour (hurrah).. so $3 G&T's all round... Next of course we had to have some bang bang shrimp... OMG...and some calamari.. both cooked to perfection and so much food! We all settled on good old fish and chips.. although it was tilapia, not my favorite, it was lightly battered and cooked to perfection.. we all had three large pieces.. each of us only managed two pieces. The fries were tasted, still with the skins on the potatoes and the tartar sauce zezty... the only thing missing was the mushy peas.. but then I am British!! The check was great value at $70 for 3 of us, Mom and I had two rounds of cocktails... Hubbie and I will be back...
(5)Carrie C.
Sat at the bar & had bad service, but that was just the bartenders being busy doing something else. However, I went on a Wednesday for happy hour & the $6 special of the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos.....food was on point.
(3)Tom M.
We were on vacation so decided to splurge. We ordered the mixed grill for two which is $39. The mixed grill came with blackened tuna, grilled salmon and chilean sea bass, and BBQ shrimp with scallops. The tuna was spicy as expected so I ate all of that. My companion ate all the salmon and she said it was the best grilled salmon she ever tasted, including my own! Oh well. I absolutely loved the sea bass and I would order a full entree if I ever go to Bonefish again. The shrimp and scallops were just average. The BBQ sauce was sweet. I wouldn't mind splurging again and going back.
(5)Kim A.
For a chain restaurant I really like this place. Bang bang shrimp is a must. They're very accommodating to food concerns and everything we've had has been delicious.

I have had a few instances where a medium rare ordered salmon came out well done. But with no problem they have fixed it for me. Desserts area great!! The macadamia nut brownie with raspberry sauce and house made whipped cream is great. Prices are a little high, but everything is good and this is expected from a seafood restaurant. I do recommend this place. Enjoy!!

Kind of dissapointed. We read the reviews before we went tonight and we decided to give it a chance. Unfortunately, the negative reviews were pretty much spot on. We had the Bang Bang shrimp and it was pretty good. I'll break it down to pros and cons. Pros: -The first part of the meal, the service was speedy but as the restaurant got busier the service got slower. A lot slower and sloppier. -The bread was fresh and came with a delicious olive oil/pesto dip. -The server was polite and happy to help. We got plenty of refills of water and drinks when we needed them. -The outdoor patio is nice and has a lounge area. -The kids activity/menu book is pretty impressive. Cons: -The food came out in varying degrees of temperature. Fried calamari was cold, and two of our orders side dishes were wrong. - I would have to say overall, overpriced. My wife had a shrimp and scallop dish. 24$. 3 small shrimp and 1 scallop. Pretty light on the fish, I would say for the price. Desert was their signature doughuts. $5 for three small doughnut holes. -We heard several apologies being made at the adjacent tables. It looked like we weren't the only ones receiving shoddy service. -Side dish of steamed broccoli was almost mush. I got the feeling that a lot of the problems at this place aren't the fault of the servers. I could sense some of them were frustrated with the kitchen. Overall, I would suggest going somewhere else for dinner. Too overvalued, obvious managerial problems and a lengthy dinner. Go for drinks and an app or 2 but anything more, be prepared for a marathon.

If it's Wednesday, it must be Bang Bang shrimp day at Bonefish! We all knew about the special day, so waited all day for happy hour to begin. And servers Matt and Thomas did not disappoint. The servings were hot and generous and that was all I needed. My wife and mother-in-law also had Caesar salads to go along with theirs, and my father-in-law had a cup of their delicious crab corn chowder. My wife and I stuck to one of our favorites, Curious Traveler Lemon Shandy. Nanny had a Chardonnay to go with her dinner, and Paw Paw got his favorite CC and 7. Another stellar night out in Orlando! We love this town!

Amazing experience here. Had the Bang Bang Shrimp on a flatbread and was astounded with how good it was. The sauce is what makes it. Both people with me had tilapia (one the Imperial Tilapia and the other tilapia with the lemon sauce) and they loved it. I had sirloin with lobster stuffed shrimp. The meat was cooked perfectly and the lobster tasted great. Would definitely recommend this to anyone.

I took my husband and boys here for their first time (this was only my second time, first was in Buffalo, NY...let me just say that I was SO disappointed. I really wanted my family to experience a nice, classy seafood restaurant on the East Coast since this was also our very first visit to Florida. Sara, our server, took awhile to come to our table to greet us. She was good. Appetizers and drinks came pretty quickly, but our entrees took so long, we went through 2 loaves of bread and was still looking for our food. Sara acknowledged this, but that didn't seem to help it any. Even when the manager came over to check in on us, I had to say to her that the food took too long to come out. She said she knew and offered us a free dessert - which also took awhile to come out! Seriously? And when our bill came, I caught that they charged us a sangria that I ordered, but never came and I completely forgot about because of the wait! Overall, the food and atmosphere was good. But, if you know that the kitchen was overwhelmed, say something and let us know! And knock off an appetizer for the trouble instead of offering us 1 free dessert and making us wait for that too! We weren't the last ones to be seated, but we were one of the last ones left in the restaurant!!!

Fish tacos were fab. The ahi sashimi was seared. I may have missed the word "seared" in the description. It was delish but if it says sashimi I expect raw.
(5)Fiona D.
Nice bottle of wine for $28 & good quality food. Portions are perfect size not too big. Make sure you use the $10 off coupon on their website!
(5)Oopey A.
Very good service with Melvin:) the ceviche was perfect....all the fish and steak was cooked perfectly but most importantly was the Hawaiian martini...absolutely amazing!!! A must have!!!
(5)Shawn L.
Bad service, cold food, overcharged. Had to contact management to get the check fixed. This was after being notified by credit card company of the generous tip. Thought after everything they would have at least covered the check but nope. More places out there want my business. Haven't had any restaurant in a while that I have sworn to never go back but this is one of them. Could have just been a one time thing but the general manager either doesn't care or maybe this is just the norm at this location
(1)Kim A.
For a chain restaurant I really like this place. Bang bang shrimp is a must. They're very accommodating to food concerns and everything we've had has been delicious.
(4)Michael B.
This is a great restraint over all we have been here twice once in Georgia and the other in Florida. For a fancy restraint the prices aren't bad. Lots to choose from and plenty of deals. Gotta get the bang bang shrimp, it's a Starter but I get it as a meal
(4)Joanna T.
Generally, I think the Bonefish Chain is "okay" but I have to give mad props to the way they handled our group of 20-ish. Our server (with some help) was on TOP of things - refilling drinks, clearing plates, delivering stuff, etc. Everyone got the right order, and I heard lots of comments about how good the food was from our group. Personally, I had salmon which I often avoid due to fears that it will be fishy + gross. Not this - nicely seasoned, well cooked and delicious all the way. If salmon always tasted like this, I'd eat it regularly. Management was also accommodating when booking our party. There isn't a catering menu, but they happily made us a custom menu. Prices were reasonable, the food was really very good and service was great. What's not to like? (Also of note - this Bonefish is located on a delightfully touristy and tacky road. Think lots of neon and giant gift shops. It's like the WalMart equivalent of the Vegas Strip. I say this in the most positive way possible)
(4)Josh L.
Wow, WOw, WOW! Bang Bang Shrimp = Amazing Corn Chowder = Wonderful Sea Bass = Incredible Salmon = Good Prices = Pretty Good! Server = Great Overal = 10/10 If you are in the area you need to stop here. I was extremely impressed and could not be happier with our decision for dinner!!! We made reservations at 7, showed up early and they were immediately waiting for us. Sat right away and from that moment the experience was wonderful. Wish there was one back home but makes a great memory!
(5)Joseph T.
Great service from our server Adam C. (According to my receipt). He was able to make recommendations since it was my first time for drinks and even my meal. He did a great job checking up on us and making sure everything was up to par. He was even able to switch my drink because it was not what I expected. Dinner was served perfectly and tasted amazing! The bang bang shrimp was an amazing appraiser! Definitely 5 yelp stars!
(5)Kearstin C.
Food is very fresh here, Service is great as well. I would stick with ordering the seafood on the grill menu. I feel like that is where this place shines the best. I ordered the Shrimp Pad Thai. It was not really that good. Did not taste authentic. I should have known better, being a lover of thai food. If you order this be expecting a very americanized version of Pad Thai. For a fresh seafood restaurant the prices are very reasonable. Make sure you get BANG BANG SHRIMP! THE BEST
(3)Becka L.
Very impressive for a chain! We were in town for a nationals volleyball tournament & we were just looking for some decent seafood. We decided on this place based on other's reviews and it did not disappoint! There were 4 adults in our group & 3 of us ordered the Bang Bang Shrimp. I actually got the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos, & they got the single person appetizer. This dish is a MUST! Very delicious! I had sweet potato mash for my side dish, which was also very good. My husband ordered the sirloin with asparagus & was very pleased. My son ordered the calamari & the lump crab soup (?) & said both were delicious. The staff was friendly from beginning to end & our server Bryan took good care of us. We would highly recommend this place & would happily return again.
(5)Brian K.
We had Bang Bang Shrimp and the Thai Coconut Shrimp both where amazing. John was our server we sat in the bar area and had excellent service!
(5)Rafael C.
First time coming to this restaurant and the food is amazing, I ordered the bang bang shrimp as a meal with the crab fried rice and it looked great, tasted even better.
(5)Sarah C.
Last night, my boyfriend and I had an impromptu date night. We thought let's try BoneFish!! What a good idea it was. We thought on a Sunday night it would be busy, and boy it was! Lots of large parties, hustle and bustle but we were seated immediately. Next, our waitress was attentive and sweet. I wish I remembered her name. She gave excellent recommendations!! We enjoyed dinner. My boyfriends grouper was a bit over cooked, but he's a Chef and picky about his food. We truly had a lovely evening!! Thank you, BoneFish!!!
(4)Anthony C.
Good food and poor service. Too long of a wait for a restaurant that was very empty in the back. There were at least 6 empty tables in the back when we sat down after around 20 minutes for a party of 8. We were told 45 minutes, so it was great when we were paged early. That was one of the best parts of the meal. 4 of us received our entrees and waited on the other 4 to get served. The server said it was coming, but when we saw other tables get their food and were frustrated because as a family we expect to eat together. We made a comment that other people were brought their food and it seems like without question one basic expectation is that we should all be served together, not half the people served a good 5 minutes before the others. When the food finally came it was good, but nothing special or extraordinary and there is absolutely no reason I would ever want to visit this location. I asked if they still do a special occasion dessert. I was asked what it was for and told the waitress we were celebrating in between birthdays both for my mom who just had her birthday a few days ago and my nephew who has a birthday in a few days. Then nothing came for dessert. We received a free dessert a few weeks ago at another bonefish so I expected we would be treated to one or two. Before we left I pulled up their website and he first thing on the website is an advertisement for a 15% off coupon. I told the server before he came with our bills and when he came back, everyone else dining with us did not have the 15% off. I asked if we all needed to be on one bill to get the discount or needed to pull it up on our phones. He told everyone to get the offer on their phones and he said he would talk to the manager. Eventually he did give us all the discount, but it was an extra hassle for no reason when it is not a targeted offer or something specific to me. If you go to their website you don't even have to click a link, it is the first thing shown on the top of their page. The manager never came to check on us. It seems like a simple gesture to make sure your customers are happy. I prefer a visit from a manager even though 90% of my meals are issue free. It makes me feel good knowing the manager is engaged with their guests and their experiences and able to ensure their servers are delivering on their brand experience. When a manager fails to check on your meal, I think there is a correlation with the increased likelihood of having a poor experience. In this case my thoughts were correct.

For Starters: Oysters on the half shell and Rockefeller split. Great! Bang bang shrimp, Boom! For Dinner: Grouper. Fantastic Tuna bowl. Damn! Top it off: Happy Hour beverages. Ask for Sharon!
(5)Ada C.
This location always seem to be busy, but never a long wait. I've sat at both the bar area and the dining room, and experience has been about the same. The baked Rockefeller style oysters are amazing!! I also enjoyed the calamari - the sweet and spicy sauce is so tasty. Their fish is fresh and you have options to either get the item grilled with lemon, or a sauce on the side. Options include lime tomato garlic, mango salsa, herb pesto, pan asian sauce, and lemon butter. I couldn't choose between two different sauces, and I was able to select two at no charge. The complimentary bread is probably one of the best breads I've ever had... fresh, hot, crusty and did I mention hot? Sooo good.
(4)John V.
I know this is a chain but the staff make it feel like a stand alone restaurant. Really friendly bartenders who remember you and a kitchen staff that enjoy taking special requests...particularly when it involves increasing the spice level. Sit at the bar and you can't go wrong.
(5)Mark K.
First time at the Bonefish in Orlando. Have dined many times at Bonefish in Venice Florida. Ordered apps we love, Bang Bang Shrimp(quite possibly my favorite appetizer anywhere)-sauce has a tangy zip that pleases all palates, crab cakes-good and do not seem to have much filler, and bacon wrapped scallops-excellent flavor. Ordered special Filet and lobster Thermidor. Green beans were lightly sautéed and very good. Filet and Thermidor were perfect complement, however ordered filet medium and middle was very rare exposing what may have been a lower quality cut... They put it back on the grill and got it right as manager brought it out. Service was stellar...timely, engaging, and upbeat. Key lime pie was just dart enough. Overall, excellent experience even given one of four entrees not quite cooked on the money. Love bonefish
(5)Randy K.
Always reliable. Best crab cakes around. Delicious salmon with Pan Asian sauce. Crusty, tasty bread. Our server, Adam, was friendly and very helpful. The Bonefish chain serves really good food at reasonable prices at all of their sites.

Well, we showed up at Bonefish because we thought they offered sushi, but they do not. However, we decided to stay anyway and had a great meal. We were able to sit right down when we arrived at 5:30 pm, but as we were leaving around 6:30 there was a wait. As much as I like Red Lobster's cheddar biscuits, the seafood at Bonefish Grill is far and away a million times fresher and better prepared for the same price-point. We started out with the item closest to our original want of sushi: the ahi tuna appetizer. We got the small order and it was about 3 pieces of both of us. I really loved the ahi tuna. The sauce was fantastic and it was very well prepared. Delicious. Since it was Sunday, they have happy hour until 6:30 pm. We ordered a couple beers and their pomegranate sangria. The sangria especially was very solid. For our meals I got the Bang Bang Shrimp tacos and the husband got the Fish tacos. He added avocado to his and it cost $0.50 extra, but it really kicked them up a notch. I loved my Bang Bang Shrimp tacos. SO good. Breaded and fried, but still tasted fresh and super flavorful. I would order these again in a heartbeat. Both dishes came with a side of the homemade chips and we liked these, but thought they needed a lot of salt. A great meal and well priced compared to the rest of anything near to Disney. A nice escape from the parks with fast and friendly service.
(4)Simon C.
I have my concerns due to the poor reviews this October. I asked two people on my way into the restaurant how the food was. They both said excellent. I concur. Everything from the service to the quality of the food was excellent. This was our first visit to the restaurant but it won't be our last.
(4)Tom M.
We were on vacation so decided to splurge. We ordered the mixed grill for two which is $39. The mixed grill came with blackened tuna, grilled salmon and chilean sea bass, and BBQ shrimp with scallops. The tuna was spicy as expected so I ate all of that. My companion ate all the salmon and she said it was the best grilled salmon she ever tasted, including my own! Oh well. I absolutely loved the sea bass and I would order a full entree if I ever go to Bonefish again. The shrimp and scallops were just average. The BBQ sauce was sweet. I wouldn't mind splurging again and going back.
(5)Catharine C.
My husband and I were very excited to finally get a chance to go to Bonefish Grill and try the Bang Bang Shrimp, that my parents have been raving about for over a year, so while on our honeymoon, we made sure to make plans to go to dinner there as soon as we found out there was one near our resort. The restaurant was very well kept, and the wait time was not long, however our service was terrible. Our server took forever to get our drink orders. She took so long that we had already decided on food, and ordered drinks, appetizers and main course all together. By the time appetizers came out we had all finished our first round of sodas, and they had been sitting empty for quiet awhile, and we only received 1 out of the 2 apps that we ordered. We finished out bang Bang Shrimp (which was delicious and is what earned them the 2 stars in my eyes) before our server came to check on us again... Which is when she told us that she had ASSUMED that my Aunt's mussel order was her meal... Then she told us that the kitchen was backed up.......... But somehow about 10 minutes later, the mussels had magically been quickfired... If the kitchen was as backed up as she had expressed, they still would have taken a great deal longer. Yet again, our drinks were left empty for a good deal of time. When out food was served, my food was cold. Instead of complaining, we just quickly got out of the restaurant. We were there to celebrate our honeymoon and my husbands birthday, but the experience left us in a less than celebratory mood. I might try Bonefish again, but not at this location. I'm sad to say that we were very disappointed.
(2)L K.
Had the bang shrimp tacos and they were very tasty. Three were served in a taco rack and other than wanting one more, they were great.
(4)Kevin S.
This was my first visit to Bonefish and I was not impressed! The only reason it gets 2 stars is the atmosphere. The prices at first seemed reasonable and got the fish and chips, but when food came I was disappointed for sure! The portion size was small for the cost and noticed everyone portions were small for the price. The fish was just as good as captain d's fast food and fries were average at best. If you like small portions for high prices then this is place, but I expect a decent portion when prices top $12 per entree. I will stick to my seafood buffets places.
(2)Ken B.
1st we really like the Bonefish, and the staff here was great. Good to get away from Disneyworld rush. On our GPS.

First off, we've tried many restaurant on Irlo and this is by far the best restaurant to go to. So if you're a Yelper who doesn't like to read a whole review then just come in! Ambiance: fabulous. Lighting is low enough to be elegant and comforting. Artwork is gorgeous and it feels like a high end restaurant with very appealing prices. Full bar: great drink prices and Happy hour from 5-630 daily. They know how to make a wonderful Raspberry Martini and Manhattans. Service: couldn't have asked for better. Jennifer our waitress was phenomenal. Her enthusiasm was welcoming, she was very informed on their menu and recommended great entrees. She was simply amazing. Bryan, who we believe may have been a manager was very gracious and professional when we had a hiccup. Can say management is above all concerned about the guest's experience. Our family would like to thank Jennifer and Bryan for a great dining experience. Food: Appetizers - 1. Bang bang shrimp (it's a must, don't debate) 2. Calamari (sauce was delicious, cooked well) 3. Edamame (always a good choice and the portion was great) 4. Gyoza (mhmmmm good) Entrees - 1. Sirloin steak 11oz - A+, awesome meal! 2. Diablo Shrimp Fettuccine - A+, huge portion size that's delicious. 3. Rainbow Trout - A, cooked to perfection. 4. Lily's Chicken - B, chicken was great, maybe hold on the goat cheese but the broccoli was uh-mazing! 5. Flour less brownie - A+, just freaking order it! 6. Key Lime pie - A, very delicious. To sum it up, do yourself a favor and come to this wonderful location. It's a great experience, wonderful atmosphere, elegant ambiance and very very welcoming prices for what is offered. Come to California, Bonefish Grill, because we'd absolutely come back! Thanks for a wonderful experience.

Started out sketchy with host, and initial experience... However KATHY the mgr recovered very well and assured us of the standard we should expect... We are going back on Thursday... Thanks Kathy!
(4)Steve C.
Came in on a midweek night for an inpromptu dinner after touring the parks. Service was fantastic. Food was okay. My wife ordered the fish and chips which were outstanding. Three large pieces of tilapia, nicely battered and fried with good fries. I ordered a house special, the Lily's chicken. This was grilled checken breast baked with spinach, hearts of palm and a thick slab of cream cheese.. Chicken was way dry and overcooked. Yuck! Minus 1 star. We'll be back but I won't make the mistake of ordering chicken at a seafood restaurant again.
(3)Dewayne S.
Starting with the staff. Very knowledgeable on the products they are pushing out. I stopped by to watch Monday night football not pack. As usual I got the ahi tuna and it was great. I would recommend. It was the best I've had at any Bonefish Grill, Ever!
(4)Clare J.
Stopped for an early dinner on the way to taking my Mom to catch her flight home to England. She was in the mood for fish and we knew that this restaurant had just opened. We sat outside (still lovely and warm) and were greeted by a our lovely waitress, who was most attentive and professional during the whole meal. So if you go in at 5 it's a happy hour (hurrah).. so $3 G&T's all round... Next of course we had to have some bang bang shrimp... OMG...and some calamari.. both cooked to perfection and so much food! We all settled on good old fish and chips.. although it was tilapia, not my favorite, it was lightly battered and cooked to perfection.. we all had three large pieces.. each of us only managed two pieces. The fries were tasted, still with the skins on the potatoes and the tartar sauce zezty... the only thing missing was the mushy peas.. but then I am British!! The check was great value at $70 for 3 of us, Mom and I had two rounds of cocktails... Hubbie and I will be back...
(5)Carrie C.
Sat at the bar & had bad service, but that was just the bartenders being busy doing something else. However, I went on a Wednesday for happy hour & the $6 special of the Bang Bang Shrimp Tacos.....food was on point.
(3)Jane D.
Made a delightful meal of 3 appetizers. Bang Bang Shrimp, Saucy Shrimp & Scallops (a special) and crab cakes. Delicious and more than 2 of us could eat. Service excellent. Warm & welcoming staff. Good value. Will return!
(5)Devona H.
The experience at specifically THIS Bonefish Grill was amazing. Our waiter, Jason, I think, was excellent. He was extremely knowledgeable in the food and helped us select excellent flavors. He didn't make us feel like outsiders, we felt very welcomed overall. I enjoyed his anecdotes about him fishing with his father, and it made me feel like he was passionate about the place. We got the Bang bang tacos, imperial tilapia with the honey balsamic tomatoes, then creme brûlée for dessert. I highly suggest THIS Bonefish. The bang bang tacos had the perfect amount of heat and the simple dressing complemented it perfectly. The greens with it were dressed with just enough balsamic. The imperial tilapia was warm, flaky, and flavorful. The tomatoes were the best. I could clearly taste the honey, balsamic, basil, feta, and the tomatoes, which made an amazing flavor combination. Lastly, the creme brûlée was lovely with raspberry decoration. We ate at the Bonefish in Pensacola and it was awful, but if you want to read my review, it's on that page.
(5)Angelo T.
Stopped in for drinks and a few appetizers before a party on Christmas eve and had great service and food. Bud Lite is less than $3!!!! The tuna appetizers were particularly good.
(5)Ali K.
Big portions, attentive service, great gluten free menu and good prices! Chilean sea bass and white tuna were amazing! The drink specials were very good. This was the whole family's favorite restaurant while on vacation. The salads were also very fresh and good. We will be eating here again soon!
(5)Larry L.
We've eaten at other Bonefish but this one, I dunno... The service is fantastic but the food is just not as good.
(2)Frank L.
Second visit to this restaurant in 4 days and both times the service has been excellent and the seafood, which is all we ordered, cooked to perfection. Exceptional was the Chilean sea bass with imperial dressing and the bang bang shrimp. A must go if you are in the area.
(5)Audrie O.
BangBang shrimp was awesome however the remainder of our evening was less than stellar. 25 minutes after shrimp came to the bartop bartender finally came back to take our order. We ordered salads and dinner, within about 7 minutes our salads were delivered from the barside. At the same time our dinner was being delivered from behind us. It took us 90 minutes from the time we were seated to get our check.never did get my coffee
(2)Matt B.
My family and I ate at the Kissimmee, FL location last night. I had the salmon special and Bang Bang shrimp and my wife had the Sea bass. Both my wife & daughter have gluten allergies (and my daughter is also allergic to dairy.) The service and food couldn't have been better. The gluten-free menu was impressive and, as my daughter said, they didn't make her allergies a big deal which means the staff was attentive but low key. My younger daughter had the kids menu chicken fingers and fries. Highly recommended for those on vacation looking for a great meal at reasonable prices. Please open a Massachusetts location (preferably north of Boston!)
(5)greg l.
Delicious. We started with the imperial dip, delicious. Wife had bang bang shrimp tacos that she raved about. I had imperial tilapia, delicious. Would definitely come back. Great service too.

Food was amazing. Service was grand! Best part of our vacation!

Tis is a newer Bonefish location. My wife and I like Bonefish and choose to eat at our Lancaster, PA location frequently. Bonefish certainly is a chain but their menu choices are good and generally well prepared. We had no wait to be seated on a wednesday evening. The service was very prompt. For those not familiar, on Wednesday Bonefish Grille offers their popular Bang Bang Shrimp appetizer for $5. We love this menu item and both ordered one. Yummy. I also had fish tacos (pretty good) and my wife had the fish chowder (she thought the amount for the price was somewhat small and it didn't seem to include much seafood in the creamy mixture). All in all a good choice for our dinner.
(4)Ryan N.
Bonefish Grill is a good place to have a nice dinner with healthy food options to choose from. This location also boasts little to no wait times! Something hard to find at many of their restaurants. I have been twice and both times the servers are very professional and kind. They were able to server our meal in a timely manner without over-rushing the process. I would certainly recommend trying this location, especially if you're on a date!
(4)A F.
Great new location right at the Gateway to Walt Disney World. The restaurant is clean, our server was attentive & knowledgable and the food was good as it always is at Bonefish. The only thing I didn't like was the slimy crab cake. I expected more on that from a restaurant specializing in seafood. But the corn & seafood chowder was hearty, the bread & olive oil was great and the food in general was delicious. I would recommend the place!

I first stumbled upon Bonefish Grill when I was in Miami some years ago. On a recent trip, I noticed this location in passing. I loved the first visit to this place, and had to check out this site. We walked in about 10pm on a Saturday night (this location is scheduled to close at 11:30pm on Saturdays). The place was pretty much dead, but the venue was clean. In addition, the host was near the door prepared for anyone who walked in. To me this shows, through first impression, that the staff is not lazy. We requested to be seated outside since it was a nice evening, and as expected from the nearly empty inside the outside was empty. Note: There is a nice outside patio area w\ patio lounge furniture if you just want to have drinks, or waiting on a table. Our waitor was friendly, but you could tell it had been a long slow night for him. Coming from a customer service background, I could feel his pain. He was very attentive and helpful with our questions, and prompt with our needs. I ordered the Filet Mignon medium rare w\ a garlic gargonzola butter. To add, steamed broccoli on the side. Let me tell you, I'm a picky f*cker when it comes to food prep, and this meal was PERFECT. When I asked for medium rare, I received a flawless medium rare filet. The garlic gorganzola was the icing on the cake, this stuff is an option, but make it a must. The broccoli was not overly steamed, and came out just right. Again, Bonefish Grill impressed. I really wish more people in the area would go to this restaurant, because it's truely just a spot on place. I cannot wait for the one in Rockland County (Nanuet) to open up already. If it's anything like the ones I've been to in Florida, then there's much to look forward too.
