FIVE-time Florida Trend Golden Spoon Award (2015 – 19) winner, Dragonfly Robata Grill & Sushi features authentic modern Japanese gastropub cuisine.

Our diverse menu features sushi, steak, veggies, seafood, noodles, and rice dishes, but a must-try on your visit—your favorite(s) from our robatayaki (robata) grill. One of the nation’s first to use traditional robata grilling techniques & white-oak (binchōtan) charcoal, our team has perfected the art of grilling using the smokeless 1,000° heat of binchotān to unlock the natural flavors of vegetables and proteins.

A favorite of locals, conventioneers, and tourists, Dragonfly is centrally located 3 miles from the Orange County Convention Center and IDrive, 4 miles from Universal, and 5 miles from Disney. Whether you’re looking to host a private event, chef’s table dinner, enjoy a fountain-side patio or just relax in the lounge, we’ve got you covered. Join us and share in our #artfulflavors!

Nice place to go for Japanese. Short rib was a bit tough. Gyozas may have been the best we’ve had anywhere. Sushi pretty good. Blue crab rice was good but could have used a bit more flavor. Cocktails were fab!

We have been coming to the Dragonfly when we are in town for the last 8 years. Our last experience was very disappointing. Our food during the happy out was good and came in a timely manner. But after that time we had to question our server as to where our food was. The Manager did come over to let us know he would take them off the bill. Shortly after that late food arrived but it obviously had been sitting some where for some time and was not very appealing to eat. Also, our last set of drinks we ordered to have with our food took about 1/2 hour to arrive…a long time after we finished eating. A very disappointing meal out,

Amazing food and well priced. The ambience could be improved with some work on the acoustics and maybe some booths to make dining more intimate and less diner-like although that will likely affect the price.

Enjoyed happy hour small plates (gyoza, shrimp tempura sushi) followed by ramen. All plates were paced well, fresh and enjoyable. Knew nothing about venue prior to the stop..unexpected treat!

Dragonfly was truly fabulous! We had a large group of 11 there last night, and had a wonderful time. Our server, Ashley, was a delight and took excellent care of us. We got off to a slightly slow start, but I think they were just waiting for our last couple stragglers to arrive — after the drinks and food were ordered, everything started coming out in waves and it was literally ALL delicious! Service was efficient and prompt, every single person who took care of us was friendly and helpful, and the food itself was so unbelievably tasty. Highly recommend the bone-in short rib, crispy tuna rice, and The Bomb roll! All were so, so good, as well as pretty much everything else. Definitely will be going back! :)
