The Atomic Tonic is one of the pool area quick service restaurants. We grabbed some quick eats and really enjoyed it. Everything is made to order so it's very fresh. We grabbed a chicken quesadilla and a philly cheese steak. Both were delicious for being a pool bar and grill area. The quesadillas had a nice crunch to them and the quesadillas had a nice flavor with the addition of the peppers and onions. They and the rest of the resort are doing an amazing job at keeping things clean for everyone especially during this pandemic. I would suggest giving this place a try if you are hanging out in the pool at Cabana Bay.

Great service. Greeted with a smile. Three bartenders available for drinks. Small area where you can walk up and order, otherwise plenty of bar seating. Menu includes beer, spirits and fancy cocktails. The cocktails come in their green cabana bay tumbler. Keeps the drinks cold. It's not a fancy tumbler; maybe a one day use kinda cup. Might hold up for a week if you're staying there. Refills are cheaper, so keep your cup. Lots of options. I went with the strawberry margarita. It was good. Tasted like tequila. The Thunderbird was good too, but more juice than alcohol in my opinion. We came back for more drinks throughout the day and were taken care of quickly. You can't have a tab unless you sit at the bar. You can charge to your room if you aren't checking out that day. Too bad they don't have waiter service for the cabanas.

Awesome relaxing bar at Cabana Bay Resort. Kim and Cody made our weekend very fun very professional GREAT Experience!!!!!

Avocado Chicken Wrap with fries and Pizza

Decent poolside food. We got a few different things. I enjoyed my avocado chicken wrap, tasty and came with fries. Wanted to try the gyro too but no regrets. Pizza was average but good of course.

Frozé, $13, includes refillable souvenir cup.

While checking in, the front desk rep mentioned this restaurant was new. Since I remembered at least a poolside bar on my previous visits to Cabana Bay, I wondered if the name &/or menu are new. Regardless, Atomic Tonic is strategically situated on the pool deck, so we had the opportunity to dine & drink here on two separate occasions this past week while at the pool. The full-bar area offers stools at the bar as well as covered table seating. The quick-service food side features window ordering & made-to-order food. Between the two is a beverage station for refilling resort cups. Food can also be ordered from the bar, but table service is not available. On Tuesday, I enjoyed an Atomic Salad with shredded beef for $7.99 from the quick-service window. This salad was HUGE, with mixed lettuces, shredded carrots, diced cucumbers & tomatoes, plus pickles, green olives & pepperoncinos that I didn't eat. The amount of tasty beef piled on top was amazing, and I actually ran out of lettuce! All of the salad ingredients were fresh & delicious, including the feta cubes I added for $1 extra. On Thursday, I started with a Frozé at the bar ($13, includes souvenir cup). I hadn't tried this frozen delight before, but now I'm in love! We also ordered cheese fries with beef ($7.99) to share. The serving was huge & yummy; plenty for two hungry ladies to split, with enough extra for a couple of nibblers. Then I ordered the Drink of the Day as a refill for $7.99 (all other refills from the menu are $10). This was a mango orange concoction and not really my taste... But the price was definitely right. Because of Atomic Tonic's ultra convenient poolside location, I'm glad the reasonably priced food & drinks are great here. Plus, the service I experienced on both sides was incredibly friendly and efficient... very well-staffed. The food service team members were smiling & helpful, while the bartenders were cheerful & quick.

Of the two poolside bars this one is not my favorite, but they still offer some really great food! I really love their doner chicken gyros, so fresh, garlicy and delicious. They cheese fries are also so great, I love the crinkle cut fries at this resort. The bar has some unique mixes drinks. Both sides are a bit different, so check out both menus before ordering. There is ample room to sit, and many umbrella topped tables. I believe they also have shorter hours than the other pool, so check the times as well. This one closes earlier than the lazy river pool. I really appreciate the variety offered at this hotel when it comes to food. Don't get me wrong, I love their burgers a lot, and the pizza is not bad, but look into their assortment, like the gyros, very, very tasty for a "theme park" hotel! read more

Located at one of two pools at Cabana Bay (the one with the water slide), Atomic Tonic serves a double purpose as a bar and a quick service pool restaurant. For the purposes of this review, I'm speaking about the restaurant. One thing that continually blows my mind is how Universal hotels tend to crush Disney hotels in the quality of poolside food. In the case of Atomic Tonic, this is proven true once again. My continue go-to item here is the Philly Style Hoagie Roll. This thing comes on a nicely buttered and toasted soft roll, loaded with well-seasoned meat and cheese. The only downside for me is I do not like peppers in my food (they take over the flavor), and the only way to get onions is to get them mixed with peppers. It comes with a heaping portion of crinkle cut fries. Quite honestly, the sandwich is so filling, you could potentially split this thing with your partner there. Also served up here are kids meals, and as you can guess....these again come loaded with fries. Unless you have a teenager with you, these kids meals can totally be split between two kids. They also come with a soda that has a chip on it, basically set to start a clock of how long you can get refills (I believe it is either 1.5 or 2 hours). Quick tip here, that timer doesn't start until you get that first drink. If you want to save that cup for later, by all means, do so. read more

Froze cocktail was pretty good but very sweet. Bar had several beers on tap and a wide selection of alcohol. Our teenager had chicken fingers with fries. Fries could be crispier. My husband had a philly style hogue roll. I had the Falafel Wrap. The wrap has a lot of garlic flavor, but that's what I like. For a pool side bar and quick serve the food was solid. Once you order they give you a food pager to come back for pickup. The pager works all around the pool. read more

I love tabouli and order it at every Mediterranean restaurant I go to, and this was the worst I ever had. The ingredients might have been off (either the ratio, or maybe something even went bad. It looked normal but tasted terrible). When we asked for cups of water (after spending upwards of $100) we were told they "don't do that" - because obviously they expect you to purchase bottled water. I find this to be unacceptable. Last but not least: we witnessed a cockroach crawling across the floor. One of the little German ones. Although not as scary as their larger, American counterparts, they still carry lots of germs that can make you sick, and when you see one you can assume there are many more close by. Would I be back? Hard pass. I'm sure I can find great hummus and chicken shawarma elsewhere.

Both of the guys working tried nicely and calmly to explain that they were preparing the food etc - she was literally having a temper tantrum. Thank goodness I don't work in that field as I think she would have been wearing that food. Anyway this review is long overdue! I am always happy with the food. Seeing how they handled a wacko customer made me sure these guys care very much about their business. The garlic sauce is to die for!

They torch the butter right at your table, which is such a fun touch, and it smells incredible. The mentaiko fries are still a must order every single visit, and for dessert you can't skip the matcha tiramisu or the taro ice cream with the hot green tea. The ramen, grilled meats, addicting appetizers, fun drinks, awesome atmosphere, and consistently amazing staff are exactly why I keep coming back. Easily one of my favorite spots in Orlando.

Sit at the bar if you want to be served. It was a birthday dinner so we did that & were NOT…read moredisappointed. The service was great, and the food and drinks were fabulous. If you're a foodie and visiting Orlando, this should be at the top of your list. If you live in Orlando, I'm jealous- I'd go here a lot. The vibe is very cool- feels very chameleon: girl's night, date night, big group all trying a bunch of small plates - all yes! I wish I could find the order form that I took so I could properly give credit to each of the delicious things we ordered. There's a menu and then a small piece of paper with pencils and you put in your order at the bar where they give you a number.

I visited Tori Tori yesterday and overall had a really good experience. The food was so good. I…read moreordered the crab fried rice and fried chicken, and both were flavorful. Definitely worth trying. I also enjoyed a couple of drinks with my meal. My only complaint was the service setup. There wasn't table service, so we had to place our food order at the bar even though we were seated at a table, and at times we had to pick up our own drinks from the bar as well. It wasn't a huge issue, but it did take away a bit from the experience. That said, the quality of the food made up for it. If you're looking for great food and don't mind a more self-service style experience, Tori Tori is worth a visit. I'll be back for the crab fried rice ;)

Cuba Libre Restaurant & Rum Bar

I recently went to Orlando for a conference, and while we spent the majority of our time in a large…read moreresort and convention center, the leadership of the organization hosting the conference hosted a special dinner in one of the reservable ballrooms at the Cuba Libre Restaurant. I believe it may have been the Havana Ballroom. There was plenty of food, drinks, and mingling. The Cuba Libre Restaurant staff were great, and the venue was well laid out and worked for this event very well. When we arrived around 6:30 PM on a Saturday evening for our event, we first mingled around the tables and near the cash bar. There were a bunch of large tables that we began to fill out. As our program began and announces made and awards given out, appetizers were passed out. We were offered Guacamole Cubano, Mama Amelia's Empanadas, and Shrimp Cocktail which we passed around to the entire table. Personally, I skipped the guacamole and shrimp dishes but absolutely loved the empanadas. Yum! Then, an individual Cuban House Salad was passed out with red wine vinaigrette. This was also quite tasty. Next came the entrees including a choice of Salmon Paradiso, Ropa Vieja, Citrus Chicken, or Paella Vegetariana. I was trying to decide between the Ropa Vieja (beef brisket) and the Citrus Chicken. While the Citrus Chicken sounded perfect, I asked the serving staff their advice, and they recommended the Ropa Vieja for a true taste of Cuba. I was happy that I did even though it may have been more heavy and with a kick than I was expecting. I'm still glad I ordered it though. It was wonderfully prepared! And then, everyone received Cuban Flan for dessert. The Cuba Libre Restaurant & Rum Bar celebrates Cuban heritage and explores Cuban flavors, music, art, and traditions. The mission of the restaurant is to provide an "escape" to Havana through exciting food and beverages and entertainment experiences to celebrate the Cuban people and their culture. Orlando hosts one of several of this restaurant around the United States. This restaurant is in the midst of the Pointe Orlando. You can find details on their website: https://cubalibrerestaurant.com/en/orlando. You can find menus, entertainment, blogs, make reservations, specials, and more. The Cuba Libre Restaurant is open for brunch on weekends from 12 PM to 4 PM, for dinner Monday through Thursday from 5 PM to 10 PM, Friday from 5 PM to 10:30 PM, Saturday from 4 PM to 10:30 PM, and Sunday from 4 PM to 10 PM.

They also host weekend nightlife and shows on Fridays with a live band from 7:30 PM to 12:15 AM and a DJ and dancing from 10 PM to 2 AM on both Fridays and Saturdays. It was certainly a great event and a fun place to be!

The Whiskey

Such a fun spot for happy hour! We came in ready to relax and left already planning our next visit…read more The drink specials were generous and the vibe was warm and lively without being too loud to actually talk. Hands down the star of the show was the shrimp dish, perfectly cooked, packed with flavor, and honestly some of the best we've had in a while. We ended up ordering a second round just to enjoy it a little longer. Service was friendly and attentive the whole time, which made the experience even better. If you're looking for a great happy hour with a standout menu item, The Whyskey delivers. We'll definitely be back!

Monica was friendly, welcoming, and provided excellent customer service. Unfortunately, our interaction with Mary was the complete opposite. She was rude and unaccommodating, which made our visit unpleasant. After ordering a few drinks, we decided to patronize another business. As a group of returning customers, we were also disappointed that no effort was made to accommodate us. We've supported this restaurant year after year, and we expected a more welcoming experience, especially as loyal guests. We hope management recognizes the difference that customer service can make and addresses these concerns so future guests--and returning customers like us--have a better experience.
