I can only speak about how the place looks and the vibe since we did not stay for dinner. We stopped by for Bite 30 Orlando, featuring three courses for $38. We made a reservation for Thursday night. Parking was not issue since they weren't busy at all but they do offer free valet parking with reservation. The restaurant is beautiful inside. We loved the theme, the free bracelets around the silverware when you get seated. They had a live DJ, looks very cool. It was Thursday evening so it was pretty empty. Reservation was not needed at all. Service was subpar though. To the point that we got up and left before even ordering our food. We asked for the Bite 30 menu and our sever seemed displeased. As soon as we asked for the Bite 30 menu our server mentally checked out. He stood at the corner with another employee talking and facing our table just watching and waiting while we looked over the menu. We felt rushed and uncomfortable. We asked a couple questions about the menu because we wanted to order several dishes for us to try. We felt like we were almost annoying our server. While we sat there we read a few negative yelp reviews on the dishes we wanted to try outside of the Bite 30 menu and decided to eat elsewhere for dinner. They get 3/5 stars for their beautiful decor and subpar service. Will not be back and would not recommend

Visited on Monday for my bestie's bday. (They should update their website it says they are closed on Mondays) it is located in the same plaza as King's Bowling and Charley's Steakhouse. So beware of the parking situation. It wasn't really busy. They were able to accommodate our large party and other large parties at the same time. I wasn't really sure of what to order but I didn't want to be disappointed so I went with the Lobster Pasta. I thought it could use a little salt but other than that, it was delicious. Everyone in our party seemed to have enjoyed the food (lamb chops, steak, chicken) I didn't love the drink menu. I was told that they couldn't sub any of the ingredients in the drinks... so I settled for this drink which was made with Bacardi. It was surprisingly tasty. The staff brought out signs and sang happy birthday at the end for an extra charge. They offer cake with this we brought our own) I would visit again. I'll prob get the Branzino next time.

Calamari

Came for dinner for the first time tonight due to Bite30 as I'd never even heard of this place. It's over near The Orlando Eye on Idrive but is completely unrelated and is simply named that for the theme. They even wrap the napkin and silverware in a complementary evil eye bracelet you get to take home as a souvenir and have special doggie bags with them. Everything is covered in evil eyes and it's very neat and unique inside. It's well decorated and gives a very modern, sleek vibe. We arrived in time for happy hour and the cocktails were half price from the typical $20 to $10. They were all beautifully presented in fun theme containers and some with dry ice and other enhancements. They were very tasty and we managed to squeeze in two drink orders before happy hour ended. Our server was nice enough to submit the second round of drinks to get the deal but hold off on placing the order until we finished our first round. The highlight of the meal was by far the cocktails and appetizers. The calamari had an amazing crisp and seasoning with a well flavored sauce. The chicken skewers were also tasty and two of the three sauces in the trio were good. The hummus and whipped feta were awesome but the middle sauce lacked much flavor and there wasn't enough pita. The rigatoni was a decent portion and taste but we were not asked what temperature to cook our filets and they came out well done and not well seasoned. The salad and fries with feta were also lackluster. The creme brulee tasted fine though the presentation with the chocolate butterflies was really well done. There was a DJ who came after happy hour ended and the music got louder and louder as the meal progressed. The restaurant had reached out ahead of time to warn it becomes more of a club atmosphere 21+ at 9:30 but it seemed to start well before then. It took a bit long to order the food initially but once ordered, everything came out in a timely manner and the staff was super nice. I would come back but would definitely not rush back and would probably aim to come just for happy hour drinks and apps.

This is one of the places that looks so Cool on social media but when you go isn't deme experience. Atmosphere it's good, I mean, different, ambient has o lot of "eyes" but it's too much for me. Food was ok, nothing special. It's those places that sell "gold" steak for crazy prices, flamethrower to sear the meat, sparkling candles on cakes, dry ice on drinker. The calamari had too much oil and old oil, the pasta was ok, file mignon was good but small (sauce was too salty) the best plate was the chicken! The crème brûlée was very burnt and the soda was too watery, missing syrup. Service was good! I know some people would like to go there and take Instagram photos, but i would rather had better food!

The ambiance was nice and I loved the entertainment! The tables were a little run-down, but overall, the service, entertainment and food were great. The food was on the expensive side, but the lobster and mac and cheese were delicious!

Great service and food - fun atmosphere and definitely a unique vision for this restaurant!! Our meal was superb and we love the fine attention to detail with each course. Our waiter was extremely helpful with guiding our selections. Thanks for a memorable experience!!!

Happy hour here amazing Monday through Thursday 5 PM to 7 PM. Half off all appetizers and all cocktails. Food and drinks came out pretty quickly. Appetizers were very flavorful and fresh. The drinks are very decadent in their decor and super tasty. We stopped in for happy hour before going to see Blue Man Group. So not too much time to explore inside - sat outside on patio. Definitely will return to dine and enjoy inside with the beautiful ambiance.

Overall, I had a decent experience here. The food was good and enjoyable, but not quite memorable enough for me to go out of my way to return. I visited late on a Saturday night, and the atmosphere was much more of a lounge/club vibe than a traditional restaurant setting. It was lively and energetic, which could be great if you're looking for that kind of night out. However, if you're hoping for a more relaxed, sit-down dinner, this probably isn't the best choice. Service was okay--nothing standout--but the biggest issue was the wait time for the food. It took about 45 minutes for our dishes to come out, which definitely impacted the overall experience. In summary, it's a solid spot if you're going for the vibe and a more upbeat environment, but the long wait and average service might make me think twice about coming back

The Eye offers a vibrant, energetic atmosphere with bold, eye-catching décor that certainly makes an impression, though it can feel a bit loud. The music was good and added to the lively vibe without being overwhelming. It's a nice spot for larger groups, with plenty of space to accommodate celebrations or get-togethers. The staff were professionally warm and attentive. The cocktails were creative and nicely presented and so was the food, but it didn't quite match the wow factor of the ambiance. Overall, it's a fun place to visit for the atmosphere, drinks, and chill!

Vibrant and alive is what you'll feel when you step into They Eye Restaurant Lounge. Fun vibe, live DJ and music/dancers on some nights. When we arrived it wasn't very busy but the service felt rushed. The food came out before our drinks which was a bit off putting. The food was amazing - the wagyu beef sliders were decadent! The crispy cones with tuna in it were amazing. The empanadas also very good. The rack of lamb was done perfect. Each person gets a third eye bracelet waiting for you at your place setting Overall good to check out if in town.

I've been hearing mixed reviews so definitely had to check it out. I will start by saying the aesthetics were 10/10. Have to get a picture by the bathroom with the wavey wall Everything is super cute. 100% love the entertainment they provide every 30 minutes i believe. The service was phenomenal, they checked in often, food came out quick, correctly and hot! Some things I didn't like were a lot of flashing lights. I didn't see any warnings about that. Depending on the seating your whole party maybe be separated and sit across from each other. The drinks are super cute but a couple of them are in bigger cups with dry ice ( definitely picture worthy ) Now to the food . Everything looked, smelled and tasted amazing!! Highly recommend the short rib rigatoni.

Absolutely amazing experience! The food was delicious, the staff was incredibly kind and welcoming, and the drinks were extraordinary, unique, and beautifully presented. I especially loved the little bracelets given to guests as a welcome touch--it made the experience feel extra special. The restaurant itself has a beautiful atmosphere and great vibe. I came for dinner with my best friend, and we ended up staying longer to enjoy the nightlife, hookah, and drinks. Everything from dinner to the late-night experience was fantastic. Definitely a place I would recommend and visit again!

Birthday cake. Vanilla flavor.
Sara R.

I've been thinking about my recent visit. I went on a Saturday evening at 7: 45 without reservations, with my boyfriend, to celebrate my birthday. After hearing so much hype about it on TikTok, I just had to see for myself. Parking was a bit challenging because the area is quite busy, and it' s on a parking strip with few other restaurants, though the complimentary valet was a nice touch. We were greeted warmly at the booth by a young lady who, since we had no reservations, we only had the table for two hours, which was understandable without an RSVP. Inside, the atmosphere is stunning, with beautiful aesthetics featuring an evil eye and hasma theme. The staff all looked very stylish in matching upscale blazers. Before arriving, we checked the menu, and everything sounded delicious. We started with the croquettes, which are like round empanadas. For entrees, we ordered the churrasco with tossed greens and a lamb chop with rice and vegetables. Our three drinks were incredibly good, and they were presented beautifully. We saw our waiter just twice- once to order appetizers and again when our food arrived. When we arrived, the place had some guests but was relatively quiet. Every 35 minutes or so, ladies and a gentleman entertained the floor, creating a lovely atmosphere. Unfortunately, the churrasco was quite chewy and lacked flavor, and the grand salad, as the waiter described, was just mixed greens with four plum tomatoes. The lamb chop looked fabulous but was very disappointing in taste, mostly fat with little meat. The vegetables were fine. My boyfriend celebrated my birthday with their special birthday cake, and they came to our table to sing happy birthday while showcasing their signature mini blue eye vanilla cake- very pretty and entertaining. The one highlight of the night was the bill: for two people, it came to over $ 300, specifically $315.00. The service fee alone was $89.00, and tax was $13.00. We wouldn' t mind paying for a good meal, but unfortunately, the food didn' t meet expectations. The only enjoyable part was the three drinks. We thought about giving it another try, but after that experience, it' s likely a one- time thing for us. I wouldn' t recommend wasting your money on this restaurant, as the food wasn' t up to par.

I stayed at The Hard Rock for 4 nights to celebrate my birthday in June, and Anthony, the…read morebartender, truly made the trip unforgettable. From the first night, he was welcoming, fun to talk to, and mixed some of the best cocktails I've had. He not only remembered my favorite drinks but also recommended a few new ones that quickly became favorites. What stood out even more was how much he cared about making the experience special. 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.

Whitney was a great server, giving our group guidance based on preferences, and gave just the right amount of attention while we were there. The cocktails were tasty. The inside is cozy with seating at the bar, tables or couches and chairs. They seem to always play good music too!

DEAR SUMMER BAR CRAWL…read more*iDrive Nightlife - *September 2026, my wife and I had dinner at Pointe Orlando. After a lovely evening, we were walking back toward the garage and stopped at Blue Martini to say hello to a great colleague, Mr. Abel. He remembered me, and we talked for a few minutes. Our original plan was simply dinner and walk around, check out a few spots early, and then head home, but Mr. Abel reminded us how important it is to take time--precious time--to enjoy the people you love. He encouraged us not to cut the night short on such a beautiful, cool September evening and suggested that we go inside Blue Martini and check out the atmosphere. He was absolutely right. We went inside, were greeted right away, found a place to sit, and immediately enjoyed the energy. We also received a lanyard with access and offers for several nearby venues, including Ice Bar, Still Lounge, and of course Blue Martini. We ended up visiting several locations, enjoying drinks, music, and an amazing night out. Blue Martini quickly became a favorite. There was a live band performing, and every so often the singer came down to the floor and interacted with the crowd, even letting some guests help finish songs. The music covered everything from Michael Jackson and Alicia Keys to Mary J. Blige, Backstreet Boys, and more. It was just an amazing atmosphere. Sometimes you want a place where you can sit down, relax, have a drink, listen to great music, and enjoy the people around you. We noticed a lot of people enjoying meals and the show. That kind of atmosphere feels harder to find these days, and Blue Martini delivered it. Saturday night was definitely lively, but still comfortable enough to relax and enjoy yourself. And September is such a great time to be out at Pointe Orlando because the weather starts to cool down enough to enjoy the patio and walk around without feeling miserable in the heat. We are very glad we took Mr. Abel's advice and stayed out a little longer. Definitely recommend Blue Martini. Five stars!
