    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.

    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!

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    Tania was great ! Food was also very good. came to Orlando to celebrate an 18th birthday and defiantly enjoyed ole red.

    Not sure my wife and I are the TARGET AUDIENCE for Ole Red. Located on International Drive in Orlando, this is Blake Shelton's restaurant. He has one in Nashville as well. Our experience in Orlando was ok. First let me say our waitress Julianna was very good. She served with a smile and knew the menu very well as she had many favorites and recommendations. There was live music going on from a local duo and I have to admit the volume was very nice...not real loud which was nice. The prices went from reasonable to expensive but our bill for 2 was manageable. The food was tasty but at the same time just ok. I will say parking was challenging as we had to drive around the block before finding a parking garage. Understand on International Drive you have many options for food. Do your research ahead of time so you are not stuck at a place you will not be happy at

    Bluetick Burger with tots
    Jenn B.

    My husband and I decided to check out Icon Park today. We decided to have lunch at Blake Shelton's "Ole Red" restaurant. We were seated immediately, our server came over shortly after and took our drink order which was margaritas. When our drinks were served we ordered our lunch. I ordered the Bluetick burger with cheese minus lettuce and done rare with tots. My husband ordered the Boom Smash burger Oklahoma style with fries, he asked done rare but she said it was too hard to do for smash burgers. When our food came out my burger was delicious, so juicy the bottom bun soaked up all the juices. May have been more medium rare vs the rare I ordered but still very satisfying. My husband's smashed burger was ok, his was overcooked for the way he has eaten other smashed burgers. Our drinks were good but were served in little plastic cups which you would expect for the price to be in a glass but they were good drinks. They did have videos playing on a big screen but different music playing in the restaurant, not sure why they don't have the music of the videos playing. We are happy we went and would like to go back to see the live band one evening with dinner.

    The place was awesome walking in the music was great the atmosphere needed a little pep in their step! The bartenders were attentive after a couple minutes waiting. The food around us look good. Bar patrons beware!!!!! We stood for an hour for chairs by the bar waiting for a seat! Once they moved around 7:30 standing right by the chairs we went to sit!! And the security grabbed the chair literally right away as we were about to sit!! It was shocking for us and patrons around us! We spent a lot of money waiting and it was insulting to wait that long and then have it taken away! Understand if there was an over flow but it wasn't even close i included a pictures of space! As a neighborhood place we visit this was a disappointment!!

    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!

    Friday decided to try Icon park, which was cool in itself if you wanted to get away from the Disney Area.

There are so many different tapas to order from, and the best way to try as many as you can is to order the "Get 'Em All" that's offered at their Happy Hour. You can get like 9 different tapas for around $20. My absolute favorite item is the Cajun Chicken Egg Roll. It's stuffed with a good amount of chicken, goat cheese, some veggies, and is served with this not-so-tangy mustard sauce. For all the food that was provided, this is such a good deal. There are a ton of other menu items available, that the "Get 'Em All" doesn't cover, that are also definitely worth trying. The entire place is eclectic and oozing with art and creativity. The walls are covered in paintings and other art pieces made by local artists. Each artwork can be purchased to support them. Sometimes there is a live artist working on their art. You can support them directly by purchasing some prints or any completed pieces they have on display.

I'm glad we picked it because the whole experience was a lot of fun. The first thing you notice is all the artwork and colorful decor. Then a live contortionist started performing while we were eating, which definitely wasn't something I was expecting but made the place feel even more unique. Sebastian took great care of us. We had a few gluten free and other dietary restrictions at the table, and he answered every question without missing a beat. That kind of service always stands out. I had the sweet potato, the street corn and the butter chicken tikka masala, and every plate was worth ordering. I also tried the Starry Night cocktail. I normally avoid vodka whenever I can, but this drink completely won me over. Easily one of the best cocktails I've had in a while. If you're already heading to the attractions on I Drive or catching a movie nearby, I'd definitely recommend stopping here. Great food, creative drinks and an atmosphere that's just plain fun without feeling like a tourist trap.

I went with my brother and sister-in-law, and the food was excellent. The lemon pepper dry rub wings were absolutely amazing--crispy, flavorful, and seasoned perfectly. They were so good I jokingly wanted to bite my fingers afterward! I also tried the Honey Thai wings, but they just weren't for me because I don't really enjoy spicy food. That's completely a personal preference, though. The edamame was fresh and tasty, and the appetizers we shared were all very good. Even though the restaurant was completely packed, the service was impressive. I expected a long wait, but I was seated almost immediately, and our server kept everything moving smoothly despite how busy it was. The only downside is the parking. There isn't convenient parking directly in front of the restaurant, so you'll need to park in the nearby garage, take the elevator down, and walk over. The good news is that parking on the top floor is free. Along the walk, there were several outdoor vendors selling fresh fruit drinks, roasted corn, sweet treats, and small shopping items, which made the walk a little more enjoyable. Overall, this Yard House delivered great food, efficient service, and a fun atmosphere. If you're visiting International Drive and looking for a great place to eat, I definitely recommend stopping by. I'll absolutely be back!
