Being at Bahama Breeze here in Orlando makes me excited and a bit sad at the same time. I still don't understand why they closed down the Broward locations, but it is what it is, so I'm gonna enjoy this moment. The atmosphere was electric, buzzing with loud chatter and classic Caribbean tunes. As soon as my cousin and I sat down, we looked over the menu to decide what to order. For drinks, my cousin ordered The Ultimate Margarita while I ordered Mama's Hooch & Holler Flight. When the server brought our drinks, we cheered to celebrate my birthday week. The flight consisted of three different drinks: Bahama Mama, King Carnival, and Painkiller. Each drink was flavorful and well-balanced. My cousin wasn't feeling his drink as it wasn't strong enough for him. Our food arrived right in the middle of our conversation. Coconut shrimp appetizer, grilled salmon with a side of plantain, and blackened mahi tacos with a side of rice & beans. Everything was well-prepared and delicious. We both declined ordering dessert because we were too full. Thanks for an enjoyable evening cuz.
I'm giving this a two star because our server was awesome she worked there for 10 years. My husband worked there for 5 back in the day so they were able to chat back and forth about the good old days when the food was so much better. So let's get to the food it was absolutely horrible. I got three shrimp tacos and a black bean soup costing well over $20 with a tip. Tacos were served to me cold. The tortilla was dried out and hard as a rock like chewing shoe leather. The shrimp was just slightly warmed. I don't know I was expecting to bite into a nice hot crispy shrimp taco I've gotten better at a box truck. Very disappointed. The soup was actually good but lukewarm. The only thing that saved the night was the key lime pie. My husband said it's still tasted exactly the same as it did 17 years ago using the same recipe and serving a big thick piece. Yeah! They'll be closing in about a year and rebranding into something else probably a good thing. I won't be back.
Okay this is ridiculous. We went three nights in a row we loved the food and drinks so much. My ONLY complaint was the service the first night. I have a special needs daughter and our server looked at her with disgust. She never needed up checking in on us and was incredibly rude. Luckily the next two nights we had a different server. They were amazing. Try the Rum Punch and Painkiller!
Over spring break decided to stop in with other family members for some dinner. Ample parking spots with an outside seating area. The vibe was very chill and relaxed. Lots of Caribbean tunes mixed in to maintain the ambiance. Our server wasn't the friendliest but we enjoyed our own company. The food was hit or miss. Some of us enjoyed our dishes while those that ordered the fish didn't have quite the same experience as it was not cooked through. They did take it off the bill but only after having to be reminded to do so. Nonetheless the kids enjoyed their drinks and the appetizers were satisfying. Would return to sample other dishes and of course the drinks.
Great food, good time... out here celebrating my graduation with my family. I had the vegan dish and it was awesome... definitely ask for the vegan option. Another great dine at Bahama Breeze. Enjoy. Live, love and laugh - Sha
Well, they had a great 30-year run, it's so sad to hear Darden is closing all of the Bahama Breeze locations, I wish they could at least keep the original store running; however, it too will be closing its doors by April 5th 2026. This was my second employer after moving to FL back in 2001. I worked at this restaurant for 5-years and it was a memorable time in my life. Back than all of the food was made from scratch and we only served dinner. Even after opening for lunch a year or so after I started, everything was still made from scratch but many of the soups and sauces were prepared in a test kitchen then delivered to us daily. We used to achieve $14+ million in food sales alone annually, which was amazing back then. I have to say that I haven't dined in at this location in years now, and after hearing they were closing I had to stop in at least one more time for nostalgia purposes. Well after our experience I can see why things are just not going well for the company. They closed down their brick oven, stopped making fresh tossed pizzas and fire roasted shrimp. No more toasted Cuban bread with crouton butter and parmesan cheese, fresh from the oven, huge mistake. No more beef/chicken/shrimp/veggie/mushroom kebabs? How dare you!! They did away with the hand breaded beer-battered onion-rings, we used to make these with Abita beer from the bar. The original conch chowder is gone and replaced with a cream based one, WTF!? The Ropa Vieja is removed from the menu, and so is the Tres Leches, which was a recipe from the mother of one of original employees back in 1996, an absolute best seller. We also used peel and painstaking slice, soak, and fry fresh plantain and malanga chips daily that was served with a delicious and fresh tuna ceviche that was killer, no wonder business is down. Back when I was working at this location there was a two hour wait Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday with a line out the door until the kitchen closed at 12am. There was almost never a time where I came into work during service where it wasn't absolute chaos at every station and tickets hanging to the floor. The only days we were closed were Thanksgiving and Christmas Day. Bahama Breeze on I-drive was the place to be for dinner, drinks, and Live music. We came on a Saturday night and it was dead in here, no live music, no steel drums, nothing reminiscent of the old days. The restaurant is still as beautiful as I remember, I honestly hope they don't tear it down because there are so much beautiful wooden beams used in the structure and interior. Staff provided exceptional service as they always have and our meals were out relatively fast. I ordered an Aruba Red Beer ($7), Fish Tacos (3) with a side of seafood chowder ($19), Nancy decided on the Fried Coconut Shrimp Tacos (3) with a side of black bean soup ($18.50). The soups were good overall but I wish they had the old conch chowder available, bummer! I was very happy with my tacos but Nancy's were not very hot. I honestly think they did not fry the coconut prawns fresh and this is why they were more lukewarm than hot. We also ordered the Key Lime Pie ($10) to share and fortunately they are still using the original recipe and making these in-house, so great job there! Our server, Samantha C., was great! We had a great chat about our history working at this location, I was amazed and saddened at the same time to find that she had been working here for 10-years and now they are closing the doors, what a shame. All-in-all, I hate to see this store close up because it will most likely be replaced with something more generic. I guess that is just a sign of the times. At the end of the day, Bahama Breeze will always have a place in my heart.
Bahama Breeze in Orange County is one of those chain spots that you can always count on. The food is consistently fresh, delicious, and surprisingly affordable, which makes it an easy go-to for a laid-back meal. The atmosphere brings fun island vibes without trying too hard -- upbeat, colorful, and relaxing. The staff here are genuinely friendly and helpful, and service has been steady every time I've visited. Whether you're grabbing drinks, splitting appetizers, or settling in for a full meal, everything comes out tasting great. A solid, reliable spot that never disappoints. Perfect for casual nights out or whenever you're craving a little tropical escape!
Too little too late for me to finally try and enjoy Bahama Breeze Orlando. The restaurant on Idrive along with all its other locations will close down soon and I am sad to see it go. Everything we ate was delicious. Our service from Jasmine was honest and caring. She made the best recommendations. And the space is plentiful. I'm interested to see what Darden will transform the space into. I wish I could've had way more days of way more coconut shrimp.
We booked a reservation there because they can accommodate a large party and we had about 16 people. We understand that it is in a tourist spot on international Drive so we understand that it could get busy and crowded. We sat outside in the back patio area, where there was live music. The person playing in the band playing was definitely a nice touch and add to the ambience. Our wait staff was nice and not rude. However there was some issues with service. Out of all the people that ordered the food are senior VP. The seniority at the table was the last one to get his food, which was only a salad. I ordered the skirt steak with chimichurri sauce and rice and plantains. The steak was not good. The chimichurri sauce was OK. I had to ask for more chimichurri sauce to help mask the flavor of the meat. I found the rice to be pretty good and the plantains were cooked well. We ordered a few appetizers and the firecracker shrimp was yummy. I give that 10. It was crispy enough and a good size bite . Ordered two of those and then ordered one set of buffalo sauce, chicken wings, and one set of spicy jalapeño barbecue sauce, chicken wings. They both came with ranch and celery. I really enjoyed the wings. The jalapeño has a little cake. I would give the spice level a six out of 10. For drinks, I ordered a Bahama Rita and that was yummy. Then I ordered a classic Cadillac margarita and that was strong. Teammates ordered beers and some of the drinks and it seemed like everyone was pretty much pleased with drinks and appetizers. Food did take a while to get to everyone like I said our senior VP was the last one to get his plate which was a salad as a meal. That definitely didn't fare well with him. I know our waiter did the best you could I'd like to believe. I wouldn't recommend the chimichurri skirt steak. Colleague had the pork chop and said it was good. They didn't like that. It was on a bed of sweet potatoes though. Would I come here again when I'm in the area? Maybe if they offered a discounted admission into some of the amusement park places. Wouldn't be my first choice.
We came to Bahama Breeze for lunch around 11:30 ok Saturday and had amazing service and food. I had a strawberry mojito- pretty good, however what I did not realize was the strawberry portion came as a portion of their strawberry daiquiri, atop my traditional mojito (almost like a dollop). It was unexpected- I love mojitos and this was an absolute first. After the strawberry portion thawed some, and I could mix it into the drink, it was good. We shared appetizers- beef empanadas and yucca cheese sticks- both were incredible! If you are familiar with either item, i highly recommend both. Both were hot and fresh, and came with dipping sauces which were all delicious! For lunch (party of 3) , we had the honey chicken sandwich- great flavor, crispy chicken, crispy well done fries. All delicious. I had the Jamaican Jerk Chicken plate- the chicken was great- favorable, generous portion and cooked well, served with rice, black beans and plantains- to be honest, the sides were just ok to not very good. I think plantains were alright, could have been cooked longer. The rice was decent (yellow), but the black beans weren't good. I did not like their flavor , especially paired with the jerk chicken. Lastly, the plain rain bowl- a real pile of goodness! I did not try it, but it looked great and my friend really enjoyed it (but I'll say I'm not sure I'd like it as it has those black beans, of which I did not like). We did not have dessert. The service was wonderful! I wish I could remember our serves name as she was great. We would come back- the place was so clean and just gives a great vibe for Saturday lunch.
Very tasty dishes and drinks. Customer service could have been better. Would come and try more dishes.

I vent been to a Bahama Breeze in years! I love the Caribbean Cabana/ Island resort vibe of this Darden concept. The service was good. The server was very polite and helpful. My guest and I got Coconut Shrimp tacos with a side salad. The tacos were delicious! The shrimp was light and flavorful! The pineapple salad that went with it was really good too! I will definitely be back!

I will always love Bahama Breeze! Best mojitos & coconut shrimp i've ever had. For the mojitos, the ice is perfect, the sugar cane they give you makes it so special. If there is a Bahama Breeze by you go! They're all closing! There's only 10 left in the country. They're selling each one off. They tried to sell the brand but no one would buy it. What a shame. Get it while you can! I moved to Vegas a couple years ago and my first stop was Bahama breeze. Had to show my husband the best mojitos and coconut shrimp in town. Not is closed so I was so happy to see this location so open. I love coconut shrimp and get it everywhere. I'm telling you the shrimp is cooked perfectly, the outside is crispy, the sauce is sweet & tangy. It's the perfect bite. Chris was my server at this location. He made me a virgin dragonfruit mojito that I loved. He made me feel very comfortable. It was raining in Florida that day and the island vibe was felt inside as well as out. I love how big the restaurant is and I love the decor, it always made me feel like I'm on vacation. read more
Enjoying a light dinner with live reggae music. It is very humid in the 90' and rainy. Bahama Breeze Bartender and Server - Maysa, she was great. Helped pick a fun drink and shared the yummy special of the day. In addition, she brought out the local hot sause. Because, I sad I love very spicy food. Coconut Mojito A medley of Island Flavors Cruzan Coconut Rum, Cream of Coconut Pineapple and Lime Juice Rasta Pasta Sautéed shrimp and chicken grilled chorizo linguine tossed in a spicy red pepper cream sause. Request extra spicy. The deco of the place makes me feel I am in the islands. Outdoor bar and a stage for performances. A must visit. read more
I had never thought of stopping and eating here, but my mother in law chose it for her birthday dinner spot and I was thoroughly impressed! LOTS of food to choose from that it became hard to make a decision! I ordered the jerk mahi mahi and oh my goodness... I have been thinking about it nonstop since then. It was so flavorful! A little overcooked, but I prefer my fish cooked so it didn't bother me. My boyfriend devoured his mahi tacos as well! We will be coming back for sure and trying other items! read more

This is a relatively new place, the decor is awesome and very tropical! Very nice place for dinner, drinks, appetizers or just a drink! Our waitress was great, very attentive and checked in on us. We had three different dishes, I had the Island Snapper, my wife had Jerk Mahi and our daughter had the Mahi Tacos(3), appetizer was crab and three cheese dip! All excellent , fresh, hot and wonderful dishes! We were thrilled with the food, service and atmosphere! The new menu and offerings are all great and so much to choose from. Highly recommend this restaurant and location. Enjoy and have a Caribbean get away! read more

Came to Bahama Breeze with my little brother and honestly had a really solid experience from start to finish. The place has a relaxed island vibe that makes it easy to settle in and enjoy your time there. We both ordered the chicken cilantro crema, and it was a good call. The chicken was cooked well, juicy, and flavorful, and the cilantro crema sauce tied everything together without being too heavy. The portions were filling without feeling overdone, and the quality matched the price. Everything tasted fresh and well put together, which isn't always guaranteed at chain restaurants. Service was a highlight. Colleen was super friendly, attentive, and checked in on us just enough. You can tell when someone actually cares about the table, and it made the experience better. Overall, good food, fair prices, and great service. Easy spot to recommend if you want a laid-back dinner that still feels like good quality. read more

I had been hearing about Bahama breeze for a long time so we finally were able to go for lunch. One person in our party got the shrimp tacos, which were very fresh with a pineapple chutney and tomato salsa. I really like the fresh side of fresh fruit and sorbet. I got the crispy chicken and Johnny cakes, which was a Caribbean take on chicken and waffles, and it was also served with pickled vegetables which consisted of pickled onions and pickled cucumbers. Everyone in the party seem to really enjoy their lunch. Even though we sat indoors, the decor gives the feel of an open air restaurant in the Caribbean. read more
So FUN. Hopped right off the plane after a day of airport delays and this place did not disappoint. We sat on the patio and listened 4o reggae and island music live, had countless drinks which were all potent, and ate enough for an army. I had the salmon salad and it was fresh and scrumptious. MY kiddo had rhe perk fettuccine and he said it was one of the better fettuccines he's ever had. Maybe we were just starving from a day of flying but either way we left full, tipsy, and ready to sleep hard for a vacation kick off week! Thanks Bahama Breeze. U were great read more

Good was fast and delicious. Our waiter was on point and made sure he checked on us regularly. While vacationing here I'll be sure to come back. The family loved the food and vibe. read more
Great food, great service, little overpriced for lunch. But what do you expect on international drive? Haha. Love the Caribbean style food and decorations in the restaurant. Makes you feel like you're on an island. I had the fish tacos where we excellent with a side of fries. It even came with a side of guacamole which was great. I got a sweet tea to go with it. Will be back to try more dishes, I wish they had a rewards program. They have the little machines you pay at the table when you're done. read more
We came to celebrate my nephews graduation. We were a party of six and opted for the patio for the fresh air. The light fixture on the patio are bottles of gin, vodka, and rum bottles. What a great idea. The vibe here is good. The colorful patio feels like you are in another country. The food was delicious as well as the drinks. There are TV's located fr those who wish to watch a sport game from the bar and patio. You are served a proper portion of food for the price per plate. Service was great from the bar to the restaurant. read more

This place was good! I feel like this place gives uninformed tourists the idea it's "authentic" Florida cuisine, but for what it is, it's good! I enjoyed the patio seating. The live music was enjoyable. Drinks were quite tasty! Food was good! Service wasn't bad... not mind blowing, but good. Overall, if I'm back in the area and craving tropical vibes for a meal, I'd definitely come back. read more

Here's a shorter version of your review: Lunch at Bahama Breeze We popped into Bahama Breeze for lunch and had a wonderful experience. Our server, Chloe, was absolutely the best--so sweet, incredibly informative, and offered spot‑on food recommendations. Thanks to her, we tried some amazing dishes we wouldn't have thought to order otherwise. The food was delicious and the Caribbean‑inspired atmosphere felt bright, fun, and relaxed. Chloe's warm and enthusiastic service truly made our lunch memorable. Highly recommend asking for her--she really made our visit special! read more

This place is very touristy but adorable. Prices seemed reasonable to me and loved the ambiance. Since I'm a Californian, it made me feel like I was on vacation. We got an appetizer that had chips, wings (jamaican jerk?), and the salmon with sweet potato and green beans. I came here around 10/11 pm and was grateful something was open near the airport. I'd go again for the vibes. read more
