Main floor. Live band
Victoria G.

Atmosphere/music - Five stars Food/Drinks - Zero stars Service - 3 stars Live bands with good music on the first floor. We ended up in the second floor because we wanted food. No view unless you have a railing table. Service was okay. Seemed annoyed and it was so loud it was hard to communicate. Ordered a burger with a beyond patty substitute. The burger comes with 2 patties. I got ONE SUPER THIN patty even though I had to pay a $4 up charge. There were a half a handful of fries that were cold and I also got the Brussels sprouts. Those were Soaked in oil, hard, and had no flavor. They were awful. Super super disappointing and the prices are way higher than they should be even for a bar on the strip. Shots were flavorful but you barely get anything for the price and it's mostly mixers. Went to level 4 which had a DJ. Super fun, more of the party atmosphere. Great mix of music, fresh air, decent views although the side with good views was blocked off. This was the best part but again, no specialty cocktails. Just regular bar drinks that were extremely overpriced and the bartenders were pretty snotty. I get it's busy but you still have to have some customer service (no it had nothing to do with tipping - I had an open tab and my friend and I tip well). Ended up spending $250 on the burger brussel sprouts and a few drinks for me and my friend. Fun experience but probably wouldnt do it again and if I did would definitelyyyy not eat there. Wish I would've snagged a picture of the menu but I didn't. All the menus on Yelp are outdated. I want to say the burgers were $26 for the cheapest and up and the beyond substitute is four dollars. $30 horrible burger.

The best part about this spot is the live music. Saw Jordan Mohr there and she was great. Food was just okay. Service was right on par. I think it's cool to offer the take-home glass with certain drinks at the price they do offer that option at. The cocktails are good. I like that they offer the Seniorita THC beverage. But other than that? Overall, it's just a very "okay" experience.

So happy to discover that this restaurant owned by Blake Shelton is in Orlando as well. Nicole was the server that took care of my family and I when we stopped by to have lunch. My family and I ordered the jam burger and it was delicious. I tried this burger at the Tennessee location and I enjoyed that location and the burger even more. However, this burger was delicious still. I ordered this burger with tater tots and they were amazing as well. I really like this place because they play live country music everyday. The valet is free if you go to this restaurant. I would definitely go back.

First time eating at Ole red and it such a beautiful restaurant. This restaurant is Blake Shelton restaurant. This restaurant provides free valet parking. I ordered a bacon jam burger on which was very good along with a side of homemade tater tots. Nicole was our server and she provided great customer service. There was live band performing. Today was my twin sister and I birthday and I think Ole red should make your birthday special with a dessert or something. Beside that the food was good.

Stopped by Ole Red on International Drive on a Saturday night. It was surprisingly pretty quiet for a weekend evening, which made for a laid-back atmosphere but not quite the lively vibe we expected. The drinks were okay -- nothing standout, but decent. The highlight of the night was definitely the band. They did a great job, sounded tight, and brought good energy to the room. If you're looking for live music in the area, it's worth checking out -- hopefully on a busier night for a more upbeat crowd.

My mother was visiting town and is a fan of Blake Shelton, so why not stop in for dinner. We were already at Icon Park for the Orlando Eye when we heard the country music playing which drew us in. It was around 5pm on a Friday night and the place was not very busy and we were seated right away. The restaurant is a live music venue. It has two floors, large stage in the center of the first floor and a large bar in the back. There is also a gift shop in the front with all sorts of merch and a photo booth where you can take a selfie with the Blake Shelton cardboard cutouts (which of course we had to do). The whole time (besides a few breaks) live music bands are playing. Our server was friendly and attentive. We started out trying one of the cocktails which was not bad and you even got to keep the glass mason jar style cup. Let's get to the food. We ordered the giant BBQ board to split between the two of us and had LOTS of leftovers to bring home. We thought this was the best way to try a little bit of everything. Standouts were the pulled pork and sausage. Plus the cornbread was delicious. The Mac n cheese was so-so. Also the baked beans needed more seasoning. The corn was yummy and the ribs were cooked well. The music was good and had nice energy in the room. Plenty of songs to sing along to.

Fully Loaded Tots

I really enjoyed coming here. I came on a Sunday around 1 and they had great live music. It was surprisingly, not too busy so service was fast. The burger and fries were great, but the loaded tattoo is what really did it for me!

Band
Tommy M.

Never have been here before, but when I walked up the stairs, we came as a group from our company and they had every TV advertising our company which was really cool and very welcoming. Didn't understand exactly what I was looking at because I was like wait a minute that's her logo so that was very impressive. Then as we walked around, they were handing out hors d'oeuvres and the bar was open and there's gaming and we were upstairs because I heard some music that I looked down to see what I'm listening to and there was a live band, which is really really cool. The food was pretty good not five stars or anything, but it was pretty good. I will tell you that this service is absolutely amazing. The place is really awesome. Overall I would say this is a great place to go and hang out dance. Play some games and have some pretty decent food.

Got seated sooner than expected, host and server with good memory. Adequate food portion. Good place for live music if your ears aren't as sensitive to the volume, 4 stars overall as talented performers won't disappoint.

Happy to be here (thanks to Cole).

Sometimes it's just takes a kind gesture. Cole (the security guard) noticed my husband was wearing a neck collar and using a walker after a bad accident. He came to our rescue with 2 chairs so he didn't have to stand (which was becoming a problem for him while we waited for a table). Thanks Cole. Tell your momma she did well!

Cornbread
Samantha Q.

My family and I love Ole Red. Service was great. My niece had a great time learning to line dance to a couple songs. The live music is always so good. I tried the Buckshot Tacos which were yummy. We all shared the cornbread which is so good and I definitely recommend trying.

Syreta G.

This looks like such a cool place. I could never spend long inside as I arrived late. The first night it was closed due to a private party, which is nice that you have that option. We wanted to eat there for a late night snack but the kitchen was already closed so I recommend checking the hours beforehand. Seems to have two tiers...upstairs may be just for dining. Heading back soon and will come earlier.

Heather F.

Took over 15 minutes to even get a server after we were sat. Then an additional 15 to get drinks. Food was horrible. Everything was lacking flavor.Burger was rubbery and the only taste you really got was liquid smoke. Should have known better when we didnt smell any smoke walking up to the building or when we walked in. On top of the over priced bad food, if you have a party of 6 or more they automatically add gratuity so you have no choice but to tip 20% for the horrible service

Is there a dance floor?

Not when we went but it didn't stop people from dancing by their tables. There is room. Have fun.

Is there a schedule for live music?

If you go to the "Orlando" location website, it will provide the month of November, the scheduled artist and time. 😁 Have Fun

Where is the best parking to dine at Ole red?

Uber. But if you're driving then park in the parking garage. It's not that bad of a walk!

Opted for the peanut brittle drink which mixed cold brew with peanut brittle whiskey and cream. Saw some cool deviled eggs on instagram which hooked me in here to begin with. However the ones I got were the basic ones from the menu where as the photo I got fished on was for a seasonal version. However they were still good but I was excited to try something a bit different.

What I appreciated most was the flexibility of the menu. There were both sweet and savory brunch options, while the lunch menu was also available. With children, that made a huge difference because no one had to "skip" a meal or feel forced into having breakfast simply because we were dining during brunch hours. The food was a bit of a mixed experience for me personally. The braised greens/kale had an interesting sweet and fermented flavor combination that I'm still deciding how I feel about. The sweet potato mash, topped with a layer of marshmallows, was tasty and definitely a great choice for someone who enjoys sweeter sides. The brined fried chicken was cooked well, but I was a little disappointed that the dark meat was boneless. That is simply a personal preference, as I tend to associate boneless fried chicken more with a chicken tender experience. Overall, the chicken was good, although it wasn't the standout of the meal for me. The kids really enjoyed their selections, including the French toast, Grand-Daddy Plate, and chicken and waffles. My 12-year-old initially ordered a sandwich that didn't quite meet his palate expectations. Within just a few minutes of all of our entrées arriving, a manager came by the table to check on us. Because of her attentiveness and due diligence, we were able to explain the issue and have his meal replaced with chicken and waffles without making the situation feel uncomfortable or difficult. That level of service was greatly appreciated. Jill was also wonderful throughout our visit. She was attentive, patient, personable, and exuded an overall great personality. We chose outdoor seating after the rain had passed, and it ended up being perfect. We were able to enjoy the fresh air, relax, people-watch, and take in the Disney Springs atmosphere while dining. Overall, the variety, flexibility, and service were the highlights of our experience. Even though not every dish was necessarily a personal favorite, the team made the experience enjoyable, accommodating, and memorable for our family.

It was literally bitter sweet, with the sweetness coming from the fruits, and the bitterness most likely from the liquor. It was still a good and refreshing drink. For the appetizer, I had to try their unique and popular pork belly s'mores. It looked like a dessert, but a sweet and savory dish. The pork belly was braised nicely and tender, with the marshmallow adding the sweetness. The homemade crackers were very nice, and the jalapeno added a nice kick. The main dish was the bourbon chicken. It was nicely tender and had a hint of sweetness from the bourbon. The rice went well with the chicken, and the broccolini was perfectly grilled. For dessert, the bread pudding with ice cream was a perfect end. Moist and delicious. It was getting full, so I was able to save some and enjoy at home too. The service was attentive with my bartender checking up with me occasionally. They were quite busy, but still friendly. The dining area looked dark and a bit more formal than last time I visited. But still social and relaxing. I didn't get to see the outdoor patio, but it looked nice from the inside. I parked at the UCF/Valencia garage, which was 3 dollars per hour. Sadly, they don't validate parking. I am so happy I ate at the Monroe for my last magical dining. It's been a while since I eaten there, but the food and drinks are still great. I must say the food was definitely high in calories, sugar, and fat, but it was well worth it. It's just that good in a very nice environment.

The platter was a decent amount of food for two people to share, although if you're both really hungry, you might want to order a little extra. Everything was delicious!
