The restaurant got busy just before our arrival, which was a little wait before being helped. Floor manager Angela came over to check on us and offered to buy us an appetizer for the inconvenience, which was not expected but very kind. We ended up having the goat cheese croquettes, whixh were nice. Our server, Jules, was very upbeat and detailed and a pleasure to have. The Mahi sliders were soooo good....I added onion, blue cheese crumble, and cilantro lime sauce to them, which enhanced the flavor. The restaurant is located in a shopping plaza that iffers plenty of parkonf parking. The restaurant itself has a nice inside dining area surrounded by a middle bar, and has two private areas that can host a private event, both of which were occupied at the time. The bar was impressive as it was stocked with certain spirits that I cannot find locally. Looking forward to coming back for a visit.

Social Smash Burger

Nice looking sports bar. Sat at the bar for lunch on a weekday and it wasn't very busy. Great smashburger on a pretzel bun and espresso martini (Got my morning coffee and lunch beverage all in one). Would go back.

A girls dream when it comes to Sports Bars. Long story short. We just moved to Orlando. We needed a new spot to watch football on Sunday's. I went on Yelp and found this place- it checks off all of my boxes: 1. It's NOT a dive bar. 2. Great food 3. Happy Hour Specials The place is modern and new, and I love the whole vibe. It has upscale sports bar vibes. Great bathroom too! The food is excellent and on Sundays they have a Happy Hour menu! We ordered the 4:15pm games are the sweet spot because Happy Hour goes from 4pm-7pm. Basically, the whole time your here- it's Happy Hour! We ordered the Hot Honey Pepperoni and it was phenomenal. The sweet and spicy contrast was perfect. Now I feel like I need honey with all my Pepperoni Pizzas going forward. We will be back!

Spinach and Artichoke Dip, Shrimp Tacos, and Hamburger Tacos

We were sat immediately after walking in and were pleasantly surprised to learn it was Happy Hour! The atmosphere was upbeat and welcoming, which set a great tone for the evening. Although a few menu items we hoped to try were unavailable, the food we did order was fresh and flavorful. We shared 2 Hamburger Tacos, 2 Shrimp Tacos, deviled eggs, and the Spinach & Artichoke dip. Each dish was presented nicely and tasted great -- the tacos were the highlight of the meal! Overall, a solid experience with friendly service and a lively vibe. I'd definitely return, especially to take advantage of Happy Hour again.

Old Fashioned
Brett B.

A friend took us here when we visited Orlando. So glad he did, this is a great place. I had a very nice Old fashioned, well made by our bartender, Jess, who said I would be happy with it. Jess was so Cheerful, outgoing and friendly to us, even though we just met. We ordered the soft pretzel and it had to be the best one we ever ate.

Spicy Ranch Wedges were really great, worth the price! Great selection, fun atmosphere & server Brooke was so personable. Burger was good, the Goat Cheese Croquettes were not great tbh, cooked fine but the flavor & sauce combo wasnt my thing.

Chicken Cobb
Stephanie M.

Decent meal here. If you're looking for something with good options and drinks. Only had time for a quick lunch. But it was tasty and relatively quick. The servers were nice and even though we got there before they opened, they went ahead and sat us, which was really nice.

Social Smash Burger. Spicy Ranch Wedges
Jo D.

The smash burger was good, but the service was disappointing. Our waitress was inattentive and a bit dismissive. We often had to flag down other staff for help. Someone higher-up stopped by to check on us, but I said we were fine because I just wanted to leave and figured maybe she was having a rough night. Oddly, the friendliness only showed up once the bill arrived, which felt insincere. I recommend the location in St. Pete.

Blackened mahi Caesar Salad
Samantha P.

Love coming to this place every time, the green goddess Caesar wrap is delicious ! I will get it every time i come! The vibes are super chill and love seeing the DJ when he's playing. The staff is all gorgeous and very attentive . Will definitely come back :)

Cari W.

Very nice place. The cocktails were too many to choose from but the one I ordered was delicious!! Definitely a great vibe. I highly recommend this place!

In general, I am a fan of the American Social franchise. However, the Orlando locale, is not my favorite of their various locales. In fact, I prefer their Ft. Lauderdale locale the best, but alas, that is neither here nor there. I came to this location for a friend's birthday brunch last weekend. It had been a while since I'd been back, so, in all honesty, I was excited to pay American Social a visit again. The space in general is nice. Nothing to brag about but they do have ample seating. My favorite area is their patio area but since it was chilly, we were seated indoors. Our waiter was amazing and super sweet. The DJ was jamming, so that was a nice touch. The food was just a okay. While it came promptly, it was just on the blander side of things. I wanted the food to have a bit more razzle and bit more dazzle. Nonetheless, it was filling. The bottomless brunch was great. It's quite hard to mess up a mimosa. So, I enjoyed that and their bottomless mimosa special was reasonable in price ($25.00 to be exact). Overall, it was an average brunch experience. I did enjoy the staff coming out with a "birthday" song, sign and shot for the birthday girl! So, that was really cute!! I will say this though, I enjoy coming on calmer days and sitting at the bar on their patio area. While their food isn't anything to brag about, they do a great job on drinks! It's a great spot for Happy Hour!! Definitely check them out if you're in the area. They are worth the try and if you're a sports enthusiast, they have AMPLE TVs all throughout the facility to keep you abreast with latest and greatest happenings. Pay them a visit one day.

Margarita - passion fruit
Genevere S.

Been here a few times already and I really enjoyed the ambiance. We actually made in time right before happy hour ended and our waiter was super nice and helpful with placing our order right before the happy hour ended so that was nice. Food was good. I tried the chicken quesadilla and it was fulfilling. My husband tried the social smash burger and he really enjoyed it, the pretzel bun was a great touch! The happy hour margaritas were delicious and strong!

Let me just say, it was our first time here and I already love this place! We had amazing service throughout the night and seriously every person we interacted with was kind! The food was great and there was such an awesome vibe! Addy was a great server and she went out of her way to give the best service

Do they have all NFL games on Sunday or just local teams?

Yes absolutely

Can you bring a dog?

We permit dogs on our patio which is covered, cooled, and also has it's own bar if that is of interest. Certified service dogs are of course permitted inside the restaurant.

Food was good, Manhattan was meh, 2 stars, service sucked.

We had a nice comfy seat on a couch & thank goodness because it got extremely packed! They had several drink specials going for shots , beers etc . So we def had a good time. The food was good and so were the drinks . For drinks we had Long Island, rum & pineapple, peach Bourbon Palmer, Raspberry limoncello martini & a crush shots ( I wasn't a fan of the shot) it was to rep your team and we were repping UM!

I am writing to formally express my concern regarding a recent experience at Paddywagon Orlando…read moreinvolving one of your employees, Seto. I am reaching out because your stated mission -- that every guest should feel "like coming home" -- is something I have always valued about Paddywagon, which is why this experience was so deeply disappointing. On more than one occasion, Seto has been rude and unprofessional toward paying customers, including myself and my guests. Most troubling, however, was a discriminatory comment made to my boyfriend, who is an Indian man. Seto asked him, "Where is your Jasmine?" -- a remark that was inappropriate, offensive, and rooted in racial stereotyping. This made both of us uncomfortable and unwelcome in what is meant to be a hospitality-driven establishment. I am a local teacher and have also worked in the hospitality industry in the past, so I understand the demands of the field and the importance of customer service. I have never been treated so poorly at a business I once enjoyed and recommended to others. I have previously brought out-of-town friends to Paddywagon, but this experience has made me hesitant to return or to continue doing so. It is truly a shame, because I genuinely loved coming to Paddywagon and appreciated its atmosphere. I hope that this matter can be addressed appropriately so that I -- along with my visiting friends and fellow educators -- can feel comfortable returning in the future.

After the 1st hour, it's $5 & up depending how long you stay. There is an elevator that takes you to the rooftop. The inside of the restaurant is HUGE & there are alot of TVs to look at sports. My husband and I came in here on a Sunday. They didn't have any drink or food specials. I ordered the chicken nachos & my husband got a salad. They both were huge portions and were good. I was actually going to ask for extra queso bc restaurants try to skimp you on them but Toms definitely didn't. I think it was a good portion of all ingredients. Our server was nice & attentive. My beer was very cold & crisp! My cons were the plastic cups. It reminded me of being on a cruise ship that they serve drinks from. Absolutely hate them. I had to get a straw from the bar bc the cups were cloudy & I can never tell if they're clean or not. I also hate the cloth napkins that they have. I had to go to the bar to get paper napkins bc i never trust them being clean & it was a blonde hair in mine. My last gripe was the extra fee for operational use that they charge. I noticed it on the menu. Yes I know inflation is everywhere but adding more to the tab & then being sure to state that it doesn't go towards the tip is kind of a rip off to me. Also .. when it's big time sports going on, they need to have drink specials . $11 for a michelob ultra is wild

We initially sat at the outdoor(ish) bar which had a bunch of people there...but no bartender. After 5 minutes or so, we opted to go inside. The inside bar was bit fuller and we spotted the bartender right away. We sat down ordered drinks and viewed the menu. We started off with the pretzel which was good. It was a bit undercooked, but not a dealbreaker. And here's where things got a little interesting. There was a group there who was celebrating a wedding. They were LOUD. Not rude or inappropriate, but just loud. I'm all for having fun, but they were a bit over the top. Through some conversation with the staff, we found out the outdoor bartender came in to make sure the inside bartender was ok given those particular patrons. Solid move on his part for helping out a colleague! The food from here was scattered. My wife's salad came out and was drenched in dressing. Despite the menu saying all dressings on the side, that apparently doesn't apply to the Caesar according to the staff. My wings came much later...much much later. It wasn't a complicated order, so it was a bit surprising. That being said, they were cooked well and seasoned/sauced nicely. It seemed they had a bit of an off day here, so I want to review accordingly.
