Some of my favorite restaurants include Normans, Dragonfly, Big Fin, and Flemings. While most of these restaurants are expensive, they do have good magical dining deals in September. Self parking is quite plentiful, and there is even a garage for shade. If you eat at some of the fancier restaurants, you can even get free valet parking. What I really love though is the big courtyard fountain, which is roaring water with various sprouts. It's loud and elegant, making it great to watch and enjoy while waiting for your table, or being seated outdoors. There are also smaller fountains in the front, which is enjoyable when seating outdoors. It is one of my favorite plazas in the Dr Phillips area. Overall: A

I didn't come here w/ anything specific in mind I just wanted to look around & see what I could find. I didn't find much deals which was a bummer. A lot of the stores were so busy it was hard to get any service. If you like outlet shopping, there's plenty here to keep you busy!

Before I begin I would like to say that this review is based solely upon my personal experiences…read moreand my personal experiences alone, so without further explanation let's begin! My wife and I thought it would be a great idea to stop here to see what we could find! There were lots of stores to stop in and see if something interesting was worth buying!. Or maybe just browse through some of the merchandise that was available! From what I saw the prices were reasonable, lots of sales and discounts off their products too! Some of the stores had lines because so many people were out there, employees standing at the entrance and letting people come in as people left to avoid overcrowding! There are so many different stores with some of the popular name brand items. They have Starbucks out there if you want a pick me up while you shop, they even have alcoholic drink bars if you want to sit down and have some drinks! There are also independent vendors out there looking for your business as well. You can't go wrong with either option, pick one or choose both! I would definitely recommend this outlet!.

While I haven't been to the stores, I have eaten at many of their restaurants. Some of the great restaurants include The Whiskey, which had some nice hamburgers and whiskey related drinks with occasional live rich and roll music, Thai Thani, which has nice Thai food, and Ruth Chris, a great high end steakhouse. However, my favorite restaurant has to be Mosonori, which just opened recently. From the same owners who does Kabooki Sushi, they make awesome hand rolls with their fresh fish at reasonable prices. While the restaurant is small, it's just amazing! For shipping, I really need to try Wild Forks one day. There are various fountains throughout the place, with many viewable in restaurants with outdoor seating. The centerpiece is the one in the center when you enter the strip. It's grand and gorgeous! Parking can be difficult during the nights and weekends, when it gets crowded. It's best to valet if your restaurant offers it during that time. I am glad this shopping strip is not to far from my parenting house. It's very close to Dr Phillips, has plenty of restaurants, and is gorgeous with their fountains. It's a great strip to try the various restaurants and stores in the Dr Phillips area. Overall: A

We visited at the beginning of September, and they were already previewing some of the Halloween drinks. I tried a couple from the Halloween menu, and they had several different options. If you're a Universal team member, show your ID and you can get a special discount on the drinks, which I thought was pretty cool. For food, I had the fajitas and they were good and definitely enough for two people. Everything came out pretty quickly, too. The atmosphere here is really cool. There's a hanging car right in the middle of the first floor that definitely catches your attention and adds to the whole vibe. Overall, I had a good first experience and would definitely come back to try some of the other things on the menu.

That being said, the huge Universal shop close to the main entrance has everything and anything you could imagine related to Universal's IPs of old and new!

We were looking the for the Orlando International Premium Outlets down the street, but our GPS sent us here. Unfortunately we didn't realize our error until we already committed a chunk of time here. When we first pulled into the parking lot, we were surprised at how lame the place looked. It comes off like a generic, run down strip mall that you probably have near your hometown, but never gave a seconds thought to. After walking around a bit, it was clear that there were no deals here. The pricing for most items we checked seemed to be on par with what you would pay online, maybe even a bit more. Also, the amount of inventory on hand was either erratic or sparse. In the end, the negative vibe of this place just sucked the energy out of us. We didn't find anything worth buying and it wasn't a pleasant place to walk around. Waste of time. Hopefully we'll make it to the Premium Outlet down the road on the next trip.

Exceptional Customer Service…read more Sean, the store manager, provided 10/10 customer service and was absolutely amazing! I shop at EXPRESS often, and after this experience, I will definitely be returning to this location. I originally came in to make a return, but because Sean made the process so easy and pleasant, I ended up doing an exchange and purchasing additional clothing. He was consistently friendly, helpful, and smiling throughout the entire experience. In all my years of shopping at EXPRESS, I have never received customer service quite like this--Sean truly went above and beyond. Thank you, Sean, for your outstanding customer service, positive attitude, and genuine willingness to help customers. You are truly an asset to EXPRESS and an excellent example of what exceptional customer service should look like!

I've been wanting to try their products, so it was worth the visit. I was pleasantly surprised by how much the mall has changed. There are so many new stores, the food court has been remodeled with lots of great food options, and there always seems to be something going on. During my visit they even had a Christmas in July setup with Santa, which made the experience even more fun. Even if you're not planning to shop, it's worth stopping by just to explore, grab a bite to eat, and see what's new. I removed 1 star because the parking is a nightmare. To me, it will be enough to make me avoid the situation or adjust my day or time to go to the mall.
