    Overall Rating: 4.5 Atmosphere: 4.5 | Service: 5.0 | Food: N/A | Cocktails: 4.8 | Price Per Sip: 3.9 We arrived in Orlando about an hour early for our flight check in at the nearby Airport. Rolled in to the bar section here. First bartender made some great drinks and was super friendly. Shift change happened and the next bartender was also very friendly and made great drinks. The bar area was clean and relaxing. Keep up the great work. Drinks were spend, but very, VERY good.

    Grouper sandwich
    Jennifer G.

    I had the Pan Seared Trout which was good. It was not overcooked but the vegetables that it came with were swimming in oil because there was too much oil. My husband said the grouper sandwich did not have much taste but he liked the blue cheese dressing had put on his salad. Service was very good. The children's chicken tender came with a to lot of food.

    Steak and eggs

    Food was tasty, service was friendly and prompt and the mimosas were flowing! We had a successful father's days brunch, the server was so kind towards the kids and ensured everyone was well taken care of. Couldn't believe this hidden gem didn't have a line out the door. Overall restaurant had a dimly lit vibe with bar, table and booth seating options

    Miso Asian Salad
    Steve A.

    I was pleasantly surprised by this place. I attended a reunion here with 30-40 guests held in the outside patio area. The servers did an amazing job of keeping up with drink orders and dining orders from individuals as we milled around and eventually sat down to eat. How they kept everyone straight and presented everyone with the correct checks at the end of the meal is beyond me. The menu tends to be an upscale version of a sports bar menu with a large selection of appetizers and burgers, but also a surprising variety of salads and other dishes. I had the miso Asian salad, which was fantastic, very refreshing and light. Yet a large enough serving to be satisfying. They also have an extensive selection of beers, including some dark ones that are my favorites. All in all, an excellent experience.

    We were staying at the Marriott down the street and had a day to spare before our flight so we found this restaurant on Google. Located in a strip style plaza shopping center. Lots of parking and nice, clean area. We stopped in around 11:30 am on Saturday. We were greeted right away and sat down at a comfy booth. Love the inside, lots of t.v.s with games on, nice bar and simple/clean decor. Our server was excellent, really knew the menu and always checked on us to make sure we were good. We ordered a mexican standoff cocktail, so good and not too sweet. Also got the blue cheese chips OMG these are a must. The flavors are incredible and the quality of the chips was 10 out of 10. I got the vegetarian burger with a side salad and my guy got the regular burger with fries. The veggie burger was super soft and fell apart but wow it was so delicious. Side salad was just mid. Burger and fries, also excellent. We were highly impressed with the service and the food - highly recommend!

    I've had some great experiences here and a few not-so-great ones, but this last visit was just okay. The service was slow, not because it was busy, but because the server seemed a bit aloof. My cocktail didn't arrive until almost the same time as my meal, and when I asked for a straw, he forgot about me. Normally that wouldn't bother me, but the drink came in a tall, narrow glass where all the ice slides forward when you tip it, making it almost impossible to sip. I still chose to come here because I really like the variety on their menu compared to other nearby spots. They have some great healthy options, and the overall menu feels a bit more upscale, which I appreciate. The place has a dark, cozy ambiance and a cocktail-lounge vibe that feels surprisingly refined for somewhere with "tavern" in the name. 5 stars for the food, 4 for the wait time albeit the server was friendly and hospitable.

    My intention was to stop for Happy Hour. Unfortunately it ended at 6pm. I stayed and ordered a couple of appetizers and drinks. Great location by the airport. It was pleasantly surprised it wasn't crowded or too loud. Kevin at the bar was great. Very attentive and polite. I started with the Passion Fruit Mojito. It was great and not too sweet. I learned Marlow's make their own syrups. For the appetizers I ordered the Seared Beef Carpaccio. Good portion, tasty, would order again. The second appetizer was the wings with Buffalo sauce. I really enjoyed them. Perfect for a light snack. I will go back to try dinner. They have a nice indoor/outdoor bar with TV's and music.

    Great truffle fries
    Eddie H.

    Hotel wasn't ready so had to kill an hour. Ordered the truffle fries and the were 10/10. We ordered 6 Michelob ultras. The bill with 20% tip came out to $65. Was charged $7 per beer. Food here is great but not coming back for beers. Could've bought a 12 pack and drank them in the car. Waitress was excellent and place is well kept.

    Marlow's is in my steady rotation of restaurants that I frequent when I'm in the Waterford Lakes area. On this particular Saturday night there were low crowds and no wait for a table. I do have a tendency to eat on the early side, though. I think we were there by 6pm. Service was impeccable tonight and usually is. I have only had poor service here once over the years. My Grinch cocktail was creamy and delicious with just a nice, small hint of mint. My steak salad was a generous size and perfectly flavored. My son enjoyed his steak and his dad enjoyed his chicken piccata. His only complain was that it appeared to have no salt. Once that was added, it was very enjoyable,

    My husband and I just wanted to get a quick drink and appetizer so we decided to stop by Marlow's Tavern. When we walked in they had a musician playing guitar and singing which was really nice. We sat at the bar and were greeted by the bartender with menus and a smile. We decided to order the PARMESAN CRAB DIP for an appetizer, the POMEGRANATE SPICE MOJITO and the TROPICAL RUM PUNCH for cocktails. The food and drinks were served to us relatively fast which is always a plus. The crab dip was hot, fresh, and cheesy, it had really good seasoning and was the perfect appetizer for us two to share. Both cocktails were delicious, light, and refreshing. We would definitely order the same cocktails again. This was the perfect place for a quick little date night at the bar. Food, service, and vibes were a 10/10 we'll definitely be back to get more appetizers and try other cocktails.

    Ordered the shrimp and crab nachos, I was disappointed because I don't like Crab and they don't have a regular shrimp nacho but I ordered them anyway and was pleasantly surprised. They have a good flavor and weren't fishy tasting. The cheese was tasty and the jalapeños add a nice flavor. I do still wish they had the option to have them without crab though. The asparagus fries and dip were DELICIOUS! If you've never had fried asparagus before you should give it a try! My waiter was very kind and friendly, though service did seem slow for the amount of people inside and only 45 mins after opening. The ambiance is very relaxing, I love the dim lighting and it seems like a great place to come and have a nice drink and date night dinner. I let my partner try my leftovers and is already bugging me about going to try it himself!

    Fish tacos and fries
    Eileen J.

    Decided to have dinner here tonight while we had some time before we had to pick up our boys. I ordered the fish tacos and my husband ordered the wings. Our server was very friendly and had the kitchen prepare my tacos without any black beans. The tacos were delicious but came out a little greasy. My husband loved his tavern wings. They were listed as an appetizer but the portion was enough for his entree. The only thing that kept it from being 5 stars was that it was freezing cold inside so it was hard to enjoy our food and the other being that our server was hard to find. We actually had to ask another server for more bleu cheese and to refill our waters. Overall, we had a great meal and will be back to try more items on the menu.

    Our Fam @ Marlow's Tavern
    Chris E.

    Good food, reasonably priced and verrry, verry chill, but lively atmosphere. During our 1 night stay in Orlando, we dined at Marlow's Tavern on a beautiful Saturday evening. We decided to dine at Marlow's after taking a short stroll around the area near our hotel. We didn't do ANNNYY research what so ever on the menu, but we heard the live music and it looked like a decent restaurant (after I did a quick check of the reviews), so we gave it a shot. We were quickly seated indoors (by our choice) when we arrived and service was friendly and quick throughout the night. The menu was typical gastropub with a variety of appetizers, salads, burgers, sandwiches and entrees. After a few minutes of mulling over the menu, we got our kids the Kids Chicken Fingers and Kids Mac N Cheese, while my better half settled on the Infamous Fish Tacos and I got the Brisket Grilled Cheese. First, the Kids items - SO GOOD that my wife and I would have more than happy to eat it for our kids. The Mac N Cheese was super hot and fresh and ooooozzy good. It was the type of mac and cheese that we love. The Kids Chicken Fingers were super crispy and ALSO verrrry, verrry good. Typically, a restaurant doesn't put much time into making Kids' items, but these might as well have been on the adult, regular menu because they were so crispy and delicious. As for my wife's Infamous Fish Tacos, I had a small bite and it was solid. My wife loved her dish though and raved about how good it was. For my Brisket Grilled Cheese, I really liked it, but I DID feel that the bread was a bit overcooked and burnt. With every bite, there was this charred taste. It wasn't terrible, but I would have preferred the bread to be less burnt. The brisket was very tasty though. One thing I do want to mention was that my entree and the Chicken Fingers arrived with fries and the fries were sooooooo gooooood. They were obviously freshly cut and addictively delicious. Overall, good restaurant, we loved the food and the place was busy, but not overly so where the service came to a crawl. Definitely a great spot to grab a bit, especially if you're staying in one of the nearby hotels.

We chose seats at the bar and were greeted promptly by Brian and Rowan. Because there were a lot of people and just the two of them, they were running around taking orders from tables as well as servicing the bar so it did take a little bit to get our drink orders in, but we were enjoying looking through the whiskey library anyways. I started off with a Suncreek blonde ale. It is strawberry blonde ale and it's delicious. My husband started with the Yingling. He keeps hoping they will bring the Kentucky bourbon ale back on tap again. For lunch, I got the whiskey dip which is full of chopped beef with cheese and onions. Served with an herb, dipping sauce, and your choice of side. I opted for the sweet potato waffle fries because they are delicious. My husband got a burger with fries cooked perfectly. Once we are done with our food, we did opt for a taster. My husband had to go through several different bottles before he found one they actually had in stock. That is one of the downside is the whiskey library that is online is not always reflective of what they actually have in stock as he was really looking forward to trying the old Fitzgerald birthday, but alas, they did not have it in stock. He ended up going with the jack Daniels 12 year and really enjoyed it. I opted for the widow Jane 14 year very sweet easy to drink. Great service from Bryan and Rowan always enjoy seeing them behind the bar

Our waitress was also wonderful, she was friendly, attentive, and consistently checked in on our table to make sure we were doing well and had everything we needed. We started with the Tabla Bulla, which was a great way to sample different flavors. The Patatas Bravas were especially delicious, and if you enjoy a little spice, I definitely recommend giving them a try. The Spanish Ham Croquettes are always a must for me, and I loved how well the flavor paired with the accompanying guava jelly, that sweet and savory combination was fantastic. Unfortunately, we didn't get the chance to try the Albóndigas because they were already sold out for the night, but that's just another reason to come back next time! For our main dish, we shared the Seafood Paella, and it was definitely a highlight of the meal. It was savory, flavorful, and packed with seafood, making it a great choice for anyone who loves seafood. The portion was also generous enough to comfortably feed our party of five when sharing it with the other dishes. Of course, we couldn't end the night without something sweet.

That set a great tone and our server, Hannah, kept it going. Even with the dining room busy, she was a total pro.

It was rich, creamy, and loaded with generous amounts of mushrooms and bacon. If you're ordering a comforting pasta dish, this is the way to go. Pollo al Chilindrón 1/5. Unfortunately, a major miss. The menu describes it as pan-seared, but the chicken had zero sear and no flavor. The red pepper stew lacked depth, and the accompanying rice was equally bland. If this were a quick frozen meal from Trader Joe's, you might forgive it, but coming out of a restaurant kitchen, it just doesn't land. Go for the great service and a stellar carbonara but I'll definitely be steering clear of the chicken next time. Hope they tighten up that recipe!

    Restaurant #3 in my 2026 Magical Dining tour was this fantastic restaurant. This was my first visit…read moreto The Ravenous Pig and will not be my last. I was unable to make a reservation for this night, but walked in and was seated at the bar immediately. There are two hostess stands at this location. The first stand is at the door next to the Valet Parking stand and is for confirmed reservation seating. You are directed to walk further down the hallway towards the bar area for another separate hostess stand for walk-ins. We were seated at a nice two-top table close to the brewery room. (Note: we noticed a separate table inside the brewery which appeared to accommodate a small group and most likely requires a reservation to be seated there.) Kelly was our server and she was efficient, fun and very knowledgeable of the menu. She answered all of our questions, including explaining the ingredients of some of our selections. Our drink selections consisted of the frozen Getaway Car (vodka, sour cherry and maraschino liqueur) and the Woe Is Me martini (herb-infused Grey Goose with a pickled cherry tomato). The tomato made this martini stand out! The presentation of both drinks was memorable as was the taste of each. For our appetizers, we shared the Gatherer Salad (a zesty combination of baby greens, avocado, pickled beets, radish, goat, cheese and walnut granola with a herb vinaigrette dressing-outstanding!) and the Mushroom and Gruyère Beignets, set off by the pecorino cheese and the truffle aioli sauce. We easily could've had a second round of the beignets, but decided to go ahead and order our second course. For the second course, we shared the Pan Seared Redfish with summer vegetables, and the Steak Frites. The fish was delicate, light and the fennel broth made this dish a winner. The Steak Frites consisted of rubbed prime flat iron steak, garlic aïoli and bordelaise sauce-SO GOOD! The truffle fries were plentiful and, when combined with the sauce, resulted in a perfect accompaniment to this meal. For the final course, we shared the Black Forest Cake and the Peaches & Cream (caramelized puff pastry with peach jam, and mascarpone custard). Both desserts were the explanation points of the evening. At the end of the night, we told Kelly that we loved the combination of the "naughty and nice" pairings for this magical dining experience. (For example, the beignets and the salad, plus the redfish and the steak, allow you to both eat healthy and eat decadent.) A final shout out to the General Manager, Scott, who gave me an excellent tour of the outside beer garden (not occupied due to the rain that evening) and the major beer brewery facility next to it. TV screens are available in the garden, and would be an excellent party place for watching football this Fall. I think I have my next visit to The Ravenous Pig planned in the coming weeks. Great service and great food made this easily a 5-star evening.

I was re-reading my old review and was impressed with how they've kept up with obtaining and working with local growers and butchers. I'm sure that's been a big reason behind their continued success. Our waiter Billy was excellent. We were a group of 5 having a girl's dinner. He was great at answering all our questions and recommending certain items to us. We all chose from the magical dinning menu, what a deal! We all ordered different things and they were all excellent. The gatherer salad and the beignets were our favorites for the appetizers. For the entrees; The Red fish was so delicious, but I also tried a piece of the steak frites and that was fantastic as well. The Steak was super tender. That house made pasta linguine with shrimp was incredible as well. The black forest cake dessert was really good. I like that it wasn't too sweet. I love that they continuously update their menu in accordance to what is seasonal. The only critique I have is that when we first arrived, they had trouble finding our reservation. I had to pull up the email confirmation (Which I did confirm) A confirmation that they had actually sent me the previous day. The hostess lady seemed annoyed and asked us to sit and wait while they got a table ready. We waited around 15 minutes. No big deal, but a little nerve wracking when she said: "I don't see your name here." It's a good thing I kept that email confirmation. I'm actually really looking forward to coming back and trying other things from their menu, as well as their house-brewed beer.

I ordered the Shrimp & Grits for my entrée and the Seasonal Bread Pudding for dessert, and overall, I really enjoyed my meal. The shrimp were juicy and flavorful, and the sausage was SO good! All of the flavors came together beautifully. Their Gouda grits are top-notch--creamy, flavorful, the peppers and onions added such a nice touch. Every component worked so well together, and the dish was extremely filling. I was definitely satisfied! I would have given the restaurant 5 stars, yet the bread pudding was a bit of a letdown for me. The texture was much denser than what I'm used to, so it wasn't quite my favorite. And y'all... the portion of ice cream that came with it was laughable! It was basically half a scoop of ice cream sitting next to this HUGE piece of bread pudding. I definitely needed more ice cream to balance it out! Nevertheless, dinner was great and I'd absolutely recommend The Stubborn Mule. The shrimp & grits alone are worth trying, especially if you're looking for a flavorful and filling dish!

I just happened to stop in, and after coming back again much later, I'm happy to say the food and service are still just as impressive as I remembered. The whole ordering system is really efficient. You can order directly through the bartender or server, and they'll give you a table number afterward. Finding a table can be a little tricky when it's busy, but don't be shy about asking if you notice someone getting ready to leave. The space is dimly lit, relaxing, and has plenty of seating, so it's a great place to hang out and enjoy a few drinks. The drinks are definitely a highlight for me. I always tell the bartenders what kind of flavor profile I'm in the mood for and let them recommend something, and they've hit the mark every single time. They're great at understanding what you're looking for, even when you don't know exactly what you want. Food-wise, the skewers are a must. They have a really nice char on the outside, and the dipping sauce adds even more flavor. The crab fried rice is another favorite--the portion is generous for the price, and it's flavorful enough to stand on its own or share with the table. What I really appreciate is that the quality has stayed consistent between visits. Great food, creative drinks, efficient service, and a relaxed atmosphere make this a place I'll definitely continue coming back to.

However, if you are pescatarian or vegan, the food options are pretty limited. I would love to see more choices for people with different dietary preferences. Overall, it's a nice place with good food and great service, but those with dietary restrictions may want to check the menu beforehand.

    I stopped by Susuru for a solo dinner and grabbed a seat at the bar. The restaurant was fairly…read morebusy, but I was seated in under 15 minutes. Service was great throughout my visit, and the staff were attentive. The Susuru Gohan was fantastic and definitely my favorite dish of the night. It comes with a soy-cured organic raw egg yolk, sweet aged soy, onion, Japanese seasoning, and steamed rice. I added both uni and ikura, and everything paired really well together. I would absolutely order this again! Their drinks and cocktail menu is very extensive and I chose the Ultraman drink, which was great. It's made with Haku vodka, lime juice, cinnamon chai syrup, grenadine, cran-apple, and ginger beer, topped with a dehydrated apple and normally a limited mini Ultraman toy. They were out of the toy when I went, so they offered a $2 discount, which I didn't mind at all. For yakitori, I tried the Hiza Nankotsu (knee cartilage). Their skewers are prepared in-house and grilled over Japanese binchōtan charcoal, then finished with aged tare and served with Susuru citrus salt. The knee cartilage was good and had a nice crunchy texture. I also tried the Mi-So-Hot ramen which comes with pork chashu, a shoyu soft-boiled egg, corn, scallions, chili hair, and spicy miso broth. It was just okay for me. There wasn't anything particularly wrong with it, but nothing really stood out either. With so many other options on the menu, I probably wouldn't order it again. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience at Susuru! The attentive service made solo dining at the bar comfortable, and the Susuru Gohan was easily the highlight of my meal. I'd definitely come back to try more of the menu.

    Food was mid and absolutely not worth the wait. I came on a Saturday night at 8pm and was told…read morethere would be an hour wait. I fell asleep waiting in my car after an hour goes by and went inside to check because I saw empty tables from the outside and had heard from the hostess. I told her that I had been waiting for over an hour and she said that there was about 4 parties in front of me. I went back outside to wait for less than 5 min and she called me in saying the table had cancelled so my table is now available. That was already a red flag - she totally forgot about me!!! After being seated, the waiter took literally 15min to even come acknowledge us because he was too busy talking to his friends at the next table. Tonkotsu black ramen - 3/5 (not flavorful) Miso-hot ramen - 3/5 (bland and not creamy) Tan tan men ramen - 3/5 (the flavors were there but the noodles were super soggy) Tempura king oyster mushroom - 2/5 (bland, thick and hard to chew. they should've cut it into thinner pieces) Karaage - 3/5 (flavorful but chucks were too big and had too much batter) Inner thighs yakitori - 5/5
