    2026-2-20 Menu Part 2/2
    Trent N.

    The quest to try every Disney restaurant continues. Flying Fish is located at the Disney's Boardwalk Resort. If you are at EPCOT, you can leave through the south exit and walk to the resort in about 10-15 minutes. Or because I was tired, I took the boat and it is the first stop on the boat leaving EPCOT and it lets you off basically at the restaurant. The restaurant opens at 5pm and I did not have a reservation so I decided to show up right at 5pm. I walk in and asked if the bar is first come first serve and the hostesses say yes. I go and sit at the bar (I'm the first person in the entire restaurant) and the bartender tells me I need to go back to the hostess stand and have them seat me at the bar. I get up confused and halfway back to the hostess stand one of the hostesses is walking over with a menu and taking it to where I was sitting at the bar. I thought this is weird. And then, another minute goes by and another girl comes up to me and asks me if I asked the hostess if I was allowed to sit there. Hello make up your mind restaurant. Either this is open seating or it isn't. How many people need to check in and see if I'm allowed to eat here. Once again, I am literally the only person here. After getting that all cleared up, I then was given a bartender who might as well been Where's Waldo. She let my water sit empty 45 minutes at a time. Was no where to be seen, and had nothing to say other than what do I want? Service here is a 0/10, hence I removed a star. Now, onto the food: I sat next to these 2 guys that told me that had been coming to this restaurant for 20+ years and had seen multiple renovations. They were definitely telling the truth as half the restaurant staff came over to greet them. All 3 of us joked how much horrible the service was this night. They didn't eat meat, but said this was their favorite Disney seafood restaurant. I don't eat seafood, but they named all of my favorite Disney restaurants also as their favorites so I think we mostly agreed on quality food. The menu here is pretty small. For an appetizer I had the $19 slow-roasted pork belly. I thought it was excellent and would definitely order it again. Not a huge portion though. For my entrée there wasn't a whole lot to pick from since I don't eat seafood. I went with the $62 filet mignon. I was blown away. It was excellent. I was extra worried because I really like Bourbon Steak which is a quick walk away at Disney's Dolphin Hotel. I didn't try any cocktails here. The steak was on par with Le Cellier or Bourbon Steak. I will need to bring a seafood eater here to see their review. Very pretty restaurant.

    As a single I was able to walk right in and take a seat at the bar. I was acknowledged quickly and the service overall was very good. The Lobster Bisque was less than stellar - honestly one of the most disappointing lobster bisques I've ever had ..... just no umph. The Chilean Sea Bass over fork crushed potatoes on the other hand was excellent and went very well with the Chardonnay ..... this dish I would highly recommend.

    I truly wanted to give Flying Fish high ratings, but can't in good conscience. The evening started strong. The atmosphere is refined and inviting, and our appetizers and initial dishes came out promptly. Everything felt promising. The issues began when we waited what felt like 45 minutes for our main entrées. By then, all of our earlier dishes were finished, and we were simply sitting there waiting. We understand that restaurants get busy, so we didn't make a fuss. When the entrées finally started coming out, only half the table was served. Our server mentioned something about ensuring we had finished our previous dishes before bringing out the mains, which was framed as the reason for the delay. Unfortunately, it felt more like an excuse than an explanation. Then we realized one dish was missing entirely. The server asked our friend to repeat his order and claimed he had misheard and had put in the wrong order. Our friend even offered to take whatever the kitchen already had in progress to avoid further delay, trying to be flexible and understanding. Still, it took another 15 to 20 minutes for his meal to arrive. Given the timeline, it strongly felt like the order hadn't been submitted at all and was only fired once the mistake was realized. For a premium-priced restaurant, the experience felt disorganized and full of avoidable missteps. We would have appreciated straightforward honesty. As for the food: my steak had good flavor but was tough to cut and chew. The lobster bisque was noticeably bitter. The standout for me was the scallops I ordered on the side. They were the best part of the meal. The only reason this is a two-star review instead of one is because they ultimately comped my friend's entrée after it took about an hour to arrive. Overall, the level of care and execution did not match the premium price point. Unfortunately, I would not recommend Flying Fish.

    Mike had the NY Strip med rare and it was almost rare in places. We both really enjoy the Potato Gratin but we may request it without sea salt next time. The green beans were pretty al dente and not very flavorful. I didn't really care for the NY Strip when I ordered it previously, so I went with the Plancha-Seared Scallops. Excellent choice and I might choose the scallops next time, too. The Savory Grits were pretty tasty but had a Corn O'Brien vibe. Did not have dessert this time but you can't go wrong.

    Love flying fish still believe it's the best flavored steak on disney property. We had wonderful service by Carla and leader Daniel. Ambiance is so relaxing and aesthetically beautiful.

    Service Ambiance and Food all deserve a five star review! The food was so good and flavorful. I enjoyed the mussels and lobster bisque. The restaurant reminds me of Narcoosees at the Grand Floridian. My friend let me try some of her steak and it was divine - cooked to perfection. I absolutely would come back and eat dinner here again.

    This is probably one of my favorite restaurants at Disney. Its not super big so I highly recommend making a reservation. The drinks are always high quality and they have a fantastic wine list. On this visit the Manhattan was our favorite, the flavors were absolutely incredible! We had a larger group so we ordered many things from the menu and not one person was disappointed. Wonderful food and great service make this a must visit for us.

    Service was absolutely horrible. We had a party of 7 with a reservation and our server appeared to be annoyed and angry at her job. This is what happens when gratuity is automatically added to a bill. Good service should only be rewarded.

    The service was one of the best here. They open the door for you when you enter and exit. I can't say many other places here did that. I ordered the red snapper and the kids meals probably had one of the best fruit plates we had. In terms of fruit plate, I was only impressed with this place and Topolino's for the type and quality of fruit that was offered. The water here was fresh and the ambiance of the room was spacious and beautifully themed. I liked the fish art hanging from the ceiling. I don't know if there are as many other options for dishes though that I'd like to try here. I liked the lobster bisque and the red snapper, though I'm not sure I would want to order it again. Unfortunately, none of the dessert dishes spoke out to me. We ended up getting a vegan dessert dish just because I wanted some type of dessert to end the night with. I wouldn't order that again lol. The server warned me.

    Flying Fish is such a fantastic spot at Disney World! The interior is gorgeous... a little bit more elegant than I realized prior to visiting (to my pleasant surprise). It is not very large but always seems pretty busy. The food is incredible. One thing about me is I'm always going to order a pork belly appetizer... the pork belly was so delicious and did not let me down. The steak was perfectly cooked, and a chocolate dessert (can't remember the name) was the sweet treat that I needed at the end of a great meal. Everything was so not only delicious, but beautiful presented, which for me is always a plus. Service was friendly, attentive, and really made the meal feel seamless. Including our transition from the AbracaBar where we were waiting for our table. Honestly, it's a bit of a splurge, but for a memorable Disney dining experience with amazing food and atmosphere, it's totally worth it.

    Really good chocolate

    Understated but my favorite place in all of Disney. Situated in a the boardwalk-which is always a fun spot- this place has some of the best seafood I've ever had. The environment is swanky without pretension The menu has typical staples like steak and salon but with unique twists. The food tastes great. The lobster bisque is the best I've had! We always come where whenever we go to Disney. Also, if you're waiting for your table, the bar next door is really good!

    The food was delicious! I highly recommend making dining reservations as they tend to get busy. Everything I ate was delicious. From my espresso martinis (strong and frothy), mussels (was missing something but it was still good) lobster bisque (I prefer the one from Yachtsman as this one didn't have a biscuit) and filet and lobster (perfectly cooked to desired temp) and dessert, strawberry shortcake! Our server was great and attentive! Overall, it was a good Christmas dinner!

    Chilean Sea Bass*
    Maria A.

    The decor of this restaurant is beautiful, featuring elegant design elements that create a warm and inviting atmosphere. The staff provided attentive and friendly service throughout the meal. The shrimp cocktail was fresh with a very flavorful sauce. The Chilean sea bass was cooked to perfection and presented with great care. Overall a great experience.

    Atmosphere was fun,as always. Sitting at the bar this visit. Great convo and recommendations from…read moreour bartender Matt. The Churrasco sammy was great, though could have used a bit more shaved beef - and the Clothes Line bacon goes without saying - delicious! Limited Reposado tequilla, but Matt made 2 great marg's for hubby. I tried Vic's Wooden leg, an homage to Trader Vic's classic Mai Tai. In a world full of false Mai Tai's filled with sugary fruit juices, this one would have made Vic smile. I also noted the Cachaca on the menu and ordered a perfectly balanced Caipirinha. Looking forward to future visits. Cheers!

    Solid spot to get some drinks and some bar food. I've sat at the teeny tiny upstairs bar before,…read morebut on this night I went downstairs to the main bar. Up first, I had the Oaxacan on Sunshine for $20. It was pretty girly, and I didn't know it was going to come with a flower. Overall, it was fine, I wouldn't order it again though. Then, I went off the menu and had the bartender make me a dirty martini. Ooohwee was this one dirty and delicious. I love the olives with blue cheese in them too. For food, I tried the $15 Deviled eggs. I thought they were super solid. I'd order these again. For my main item, I ordered the $23 American Cheeseburger. It was solid, not as good as STK, but it was fine. Super big space. On the louder side inside. I would come back here again and get some more drinks next time.
