Best Neighborhood Gem Restaurants in Waterford Lakes

We had a wonderful Valentines dinner and they offered a single rose to each woman as a small token. We did ask to be reseated, the whoe place has a wonderfull dimly lit ambience except this one room they tried to seat us. Super bright, white walls instead of the wood panels and a cheesy large screen TV playing a virtual fireplace. Once re seated we were very happy. The only other issue and the deductiion of a star waa the broccoli cheese side dish. For some reason our serving was all small bits of stalks and no flowerets. The rest of the meal, the steaks, cheeseboard, potatoes were all excellent. Still a great dinner out, has been awhile since I visited there.

Had an amazing time at The Tap Room! The atmosphere was fantastic, with a great selection of drinks and delicious food that hit the spot. Everything we ordered was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly prepared. A huge shoutout to Kenny, our server, who truly made the experience even better. He was friendly, attentive, and had great recommendations. His energy and hospitality made us feel right at home. If you’re looking for a place with great vibes, top-notch service, and incredible food, The Tap Room at Dubsdread is the spot. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely be back!

First visit to Ocean Prime Orlando. We’ve been to the Manhattan location many times. Our first visit did not disappoint. Great food. Great service. Great atmosphere! Wonderful Valentines’ Day experience.

We got the lobster bisque and truffle fries to start. I LOVED the lobster bisque so much! We had never had fries cooked in truffle oil before so the flavor was weird, but they were yummy and crunchy. The bread was hot and fluffy! My boyfriend had the Elk filet, and he loved it! He said it was delicious and tender, and the mushrooms he added to it were juicy and flavorful. I has the filet wellington, and it came with parmesan mashed potatoes and asparagus. It was everything I dreamed it would be when I searched the menu and picked it before we even arrived. The pastry was super light and flaky and the filet just melted through with each cut. It comes with a sauce that they pour over it for you. Everything on my plate was high class and definitely worth it. The only thing I can say is that parking was hard to find, but that was because there was an event happening up the road, and the roads were blocked. Also, this wasn't a big deal for us, but the regular filets like a sirloin, ribeye, filet mignon or the elk filet do not come with sides. Just a heads up about that. Great place though! Highly recommend for a small celebration or girls nights.

Wonderful dining experience. We met the Manager, Scott who was the nicest, friendliest person who went above and beyond to make our dinner so very special. You see....we lost our precious daughter, Jenna 20 months ago. It was sudden and traumatic. The Boathouse and the Fillet Mignon sliders were here favorite. Her last birthday Orlando celebration in February 2023 was so special. We lost her suddenly in June 2023. We live on Long Island, we visit 3 to 4 times per year and T.J. has always taken care of us. Thank you to the staff at Tje Boathouse, T.J. and Scott for helping us through our grief at Jenna's favorite restaurant. You help to heal my heart! Sincerely, Jayne Hudson💜💜💜
