    This hookah bar is awesome! Great atmosphere and music. Will definitely be coming back in the near future

    Been coming here for years. Nice spot to chill as an after spot. Great hookah flavors.. Always a chill spot with okay music depending on the DJ. But there has been a blown speaker that has been since I've first come here which is a bit annoying but....if you move outside it's not bothersome.

    Best hookah lounge best service , definitely I will come again : Andres best server and hookah maker

    Spooky decor for Halloween!

    Was on vacation and wanted a hookah so I decided to stop here on a Thursday night. Wasn't busy at all - they had cute Halloween decor inside that was so cute. I decided to get their $40 special for the premium glass hookah, glass hose, LED base, special flavor, pineapple bowl and a few other things that I can't think of at the time of writing this. The hookah is much pricier than I usually pay for a hookah in Jacksonville where I live but this was also a "premium" hookah - for all the extras you get it's worth it. They use HMDs on the hookah which I love to see. The hookah was probably one of the smoothest hookahs I have ever hit. 10/10 would recommend this place.

From the first night, he was welcoming, fun to talk to, and mixed some of the best cocktails I've had.

Anthony gave me great food recommendations around the resort, and on the night of my birthday he surprised me by sending an assortment of snacks up to my room. It was such a thoughtful touch that made me feel celebrated and really added to the whole trip. Anthony goes above and beyond--great drinks, great conversation, and genuinely top-notch service. If you're at The Hard Rock, or enjoying the universal parks or resort, do yourself a favor and spend some time at the bar with him. He was there the last time we stayed there for my birthday as well. He's the best.

It is such a relaxing environment, think of this like a high end cocktail bar but for hookahs. Almost any flavor you could imagine, they have. I thought I understood the world of hookah until I came here. I left with a Masters in Hookology and I am hooked - no pun intended. The experience and service you receive here is second to none; have you ever been to a really nice restaurant where they know how to pair a nice wine to your dinner? Well they know how to pair a nice hookah with your hookah. Have you ever done hookah on hookah? I have, and it is an enlightening experience. I have found a new home to experiment with all the different flavors. Also, moving on to the food, the Plov, the napoleon cake, the Pepperoni Pizza, and the Khachipouri are things I have tried and have been blown away by. It's almost like the first time you use a bidet, mind blowing. And again, I'll bring up Hunter again, he makes you really love enjoying a hookah. Come with an open mind if you don't know what to get and trust in Hunter.

When I was running late, driving north after work from South Florida I had a 1st primary objective, make it in time to grab one martini at Swizzle. I was making ok time but when I got into the lobby I knew I only had 15 minutes to spare. And there was a long line to check in. When I finally checked in I only had minutes left. I walked up the busy evening bar with little to no hope. And yet one of the busy bartenders saw me and said they had last call already, but they would get me for one. Halleluiah. One martini later and I was ready to wander to our room. The Swizzle is retro, brightly lit, and especially friendly. Looking forward to stopping in again soon.

It's the perfect mix of delicious food, artsy and fun ambiance, interactive elements, and reasonable pricing. The wait staff is always fantastic, friendly, and great about explaining how things work if you've never visited before. Tu Tu Tango is a small plates restaurant known for their incredible bottomless brunch, which includes a fabulous self serve taco bar and unlimited small plates from their brunch menu. They also have bottomless mimosas at brunch and awesome happy hour specials from 3-6 *and* late night every day except Saturday. All of the food is outstanding and their dishes span a wide variety of options from across the globe. To top it off, the whole restaurant is colorful, funky and the walls are covered with artwork (which you can purchase if you fall in love with a piece!). There is always something going on- from live music to fortune telling to artists sitting at their easels creating right in front of you. I visit Orlando often, and this is the place I always recommend when people ask me where to go. Five stars, don't miss it!

It was a bit of a bummer since we couldn't enjoy all of the crazy artwork, but at least there was the perfect weather. Overcast with a beautiful breeze.

We decided to give a little bit of everything a try so we ordered the "Get 'Em All!" It had jerk chicken skewers, a Cuban slider, a cauliflower taco and more! In my opinion, the best bite of the plate is always the jerk chicken. A close second was the chicken chorizo slider, which was also bursting with flavor. And don't even get me started on the dessert! Those triple chocolate cake pops were so decadent. The strawberry and whipped cream were a nice pallet cleanser in between nibbles. All in all it was a great time with delicious drinks and bites.

I had my 82 yr old father and 49 yr old Down's syndrome brother with me. My dad's mobility scooter ran out of power and there were no outlets to be found. I was pushing the scooter for an hour as my father struggled to walk with his cane when we reached the steps of the restaurant. The manager said she was more than willing to let us charge the scooter as we ate which was above and beyond what they needed to do. It went further. I discussed how bad of a day we were having and she brought us an appetizer and said she hoped that might help in leasing the bad day. Another employee helped my ailing father up some stairs and to the table. The waitress was very nice and accommodating. Instead of making us walk back to the front where the scooter was charging, another manager brought it to our table. I don't think they realized how much that meant to us and me. Both my dad and brother have challenges and I have to help a lot which I am willing to do but by Margaritaville and their staff giving me a small respite and helping us out, it meant the world to all three of us by helping out when they had 0 obligation to. Friendly staff and good food. Please give them a chance and I guarantee they will move heaven and earth to make your experience an amazing one! Ty! Forever grateful and thankful, Mark Harris

Yes, I know youa re paying theme park pricing but at least for that you typically get some sort of presentation. These were served in a plastic cup, that of which you would recive at a pool bar at an inexpensive resort. They looked nothing like the photo. And for "blended" drinks they were not mixed at all - like literally separated ingrediance. they are also filled so high the you can't pick it up without spilling it. And again we ordered blended so they were sticky. The server spolled some on the ground (whihc was sand) in bring them to us and I spilt on my self when trying to take a sip (because no straws were offered to us until we asked) The food comes out in to-go plates complete with lid so it's soggy to start from the enclosed container keep the heat and mister in. No presentation whatsoever - you can use a covering to shield food from the elements and bugs that is more interested and wont harm the food...this is not a new concept. Food was really bland and flavorless. I truly just do not have anything else to say about it. Just really forgettable. We were not impressed by anything and won't be back unless a visitor (we are newly local) wants to go here. And we will eat something prior to avoid ordering as much as possible.
