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

Once you learn how it all works, you can park and get to your destination fairly quickly. I've never had any issues finding parking, even on the weekends. It's not far from the "other" restaurants on Restaurant Row, but just keep going past the Homegoods plaza (if you're going west on Sand Lake) and you'll see it.

Martin Tailors is my go to for anything that needs a hem etc. There is a Good Will Express drop off donation center which I love to drop stuff off before I go to Home Goods so I do not feel like the packrat I am. There are several beauty related places (nail, hair salons/ULTA). Drycleaners, Banks, Eye dr, BUT my favorite is Home Goods & now Home Sense.

As a Floridian who makes it to Orlando a few times a year, I always make it a point to stop at the…read moreDisney outlets. There are two outlet centers close to each other--Orlando International Premium Outlets and Orlando Vineland Premium Outlets--and both have a Disney Character Warehouse. If you're looking for discounted items for your Disney trip--or you're just a Disney fan--this is definitely the place to go. The price cuts compared to Walt Disney World are huge, and you can save a lot instead of paying those in-park prices. I've been here when it's super quiet, and I've also had to wait in line just to get inside--it really depends on timing. I've found everything from Lilly Pulitzer pieces to great clothing, accessories, and Disney bags. It can be hit or miss, but when you score, it's worth it. If you have kids--or just want to avoid breaking the bank--this is absolutely a must-stop.

Generally speaking these are probably the only outlets you will find me at. More specifically, the…read moreRobert Graham store here is amazing. No reason to fight online sales since the value and selection is so amazing here. Also, where else can you get a tequila tasting (if you catch it on the right day) when shopping for your RGs? Anyway... the one downside, well, I guess two, but they sort of go together are the crowds and parking. I can't tell you how much I don't like trolling for an opening. Yes, I'll pay the ten dollars, or whatever it is, to go premium on the parking in addition to the outlets!

I was a regular at Brio Italian Grille, they are no longer there. After 20+ years they closed their flagship location at Millenia. I was bummed because I wanted to have dinner there.

I never really know how to rate malls because I mean, they are just malls. If they are not visibly…read moredying and hanging on for dear life, they usually have something for someone at some point throughout their time span. The Mall of Millenia falls comfortably in that category. While it is a mall that offers more higher-end shopping experiences, it still has a handful of affordable fashion retailers as well as numerous restaurants and eateries that can cater to just about anyone. Parking is ample - even on BUSY, sale days or holidays. They are home to local favorites like the Apple Store - which is always BUSY no matter the day or time. They are home to the Cheesecake Factory, The Capitol Grille, Earl's Kitchen, P.F. Changs, among other restaurants and eateries. They have, at a minimum, three Starbucks for the Starbucks fanatics. They have numerous notable department stores like Macy's and Bloomingdale's (both at opposing ends). And of course, they house Gucci, Marc Jacobs, YSL, just to name a few of the many luxury brands they have to offer. They have H&M, Urban Outfitters, Aldo, Warby Parker, and just SO MANY places to name. They will also be home to one of my favorite stores, Zara, soon enough - which I cannot wait for. I tend to frequent this mall in the evening to avoid some of the daytime crowds. Staff, from store to store, varies, but for the MOST part, they have been helpful and kind. Some of the higher-end stores do not give you weird vibes when you walk in to just look around - which is always a good thing. There's nothing worse than feeling like you are unwanted in a store. On busy days, the check-out lines can get long depending on the store you are in. However, most of the time, they are staffed well, and you are in and out. All in all, this is a pretty good mall. Did I mention, they have a small postal service area on the ground floor if you need to mail/ship out anything. I really do not have any negative experiences that turned me away from this mall as a whole. Now I've had some negative experiences with staff in certain stores, but again, those moments have been so few and far between. I will continue to patronize this mall. Also, it's pretty close to home - so it is convenient. P.S. I do miss when they were home to Crate & Barrel - it was one of my favorite stores for home décor. However, they left many, many moons ago.

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 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.
