Fishbones has some of the best steaks and seafood you'll find in Orlando. The atmosphere and service is phenomenal. Ask for Steve, he is a fantastic waiter. We celebrated our 39th anniversary there and had a pleasant time. read more

Food was fabulous and our server gave us great recommendations. The lamb is the best we've eaten. We will be back!

We have been repeat guest over the years but this past year- customer service is lacking. Steve- the WAITER is fantastic but the other staff on hand (host and management) is just not anything to sing about. Unfortunately the manager is unhelpful- offering her words of apologies (I do believe she is sorry she cant help us) but the team is unwilling to accept a called in order. We Received an holiday gift card, which the website for ordering online does not accept. We were advised to pay with our card and then get a refund which is bad business. We then called to see if we can pay over the phone or place our order over the phone and were refused. It's that or walk away OR drive in, order in person, wait 30 minutes to get your order, why? Also, the online ordering platform enforced (not optional) a $20 tip. I tip for good service and do not like to be forced to pay regardless. I apologize, but I do not want to pay company employees when the company should be paying a competitive wage AND Ill tip if I'd like. Its to go! I understand the chef is cooking the food and the host are bagging the food- so is McDonalds' employees but they are not collecting a mandatory $20 tip for bagging my order. I am a generous tipper but Ill go elsewhere for respect. We choose to walk away and go to another Talk of the Town restaurant. This was the second day in a row we were having troubles. We decided to goto another Fishbones -where they were more helpful. read more

Service here really shines .... They are very proud of their steaks which honestly for the price might be high. I do like the ambiance and it is relaxing but I think the price is definitely up there. I have to say it is a good place but I feel a 3.5 adequately describes the experience. read more

Fish bones has one of the best quality happy hours around. I love to go sit on the outside patio and have a nice cocktail and a quick bite. The service is always great. The servers make quality drinks and our professional. I'll definitely be back. read more

5* for some tasty food. But. Minus 3* for these uber-high prices. Who can afford to eat here? Food has always been good, but when did it become ridiculously expensive? $6 for a simple non-alcoholic unsweetened iced tea. $26 for an Old Fashion that was $10 just 3-4 years ago. $24 for 6 medium-sized blackened scallops. $23 for 7 dang-bang shrimp - 3 years ago, we could enjoy 12+ of these shrimp for $7 at HH. Desserts were outrageously high: $14 for a small slice of Key Lime pie. $14 for a ramekin of Creme Brulee. Unconscionable. Eating out in Manhattan, NY costs less than going out to eat in Lake Mary, FL. This is absurd. read more

Dinner visit on 4/10/23 First time visiting, I met 3 colleagues for dinner, we had a reservation. Atmosphere, service and food were each outstanding. I arrived a little early and was greeted at the bar. At the recommended of the bartender, I enjoyed a Gary's Smoked Old Fashion (I didn't name it) - it was excellent! Dinner was equally amazing. I went with the server recommendation (as did two of my colleagues) Fresh Fish Feature - Triggerfish with crab meat. All in a great visit and I will return! read more

FishBones - Trigger fish entree - Sushi Bars Near Me - Lake Mary, Florida

ALL THE STARS! We had a fantastic experience from beginning to end. The hostesses were friendly. Our waiter, Brian, was personable & made many great recommendations that we happily accepted. It was our anniversary so we even got a visit with a special sushi treat from one of the managing partners, Matt. Top notch service! The char-grilled oysters were awesome, the special with the crab topped grouper & shrimp scampi was great, but the steak was out of this world. Don't skip out on the cocktails! The Old Fashioned & Watermelon Celebration were also fantastic! The restaurant itself is classy & a bit upscale, but we were still comfortable in our blue jeans. read more

We always love FishBones, and it is our go-to spot for date-night and regular dining. We went there last night for my birthday celebration, and Lili did a marvelous job it making it special. There were five of us, and nothing was hurried or pushed. Each meal was perfectly cooked and presented. I hadn't ordered the escargot previously, and I was so excited to enjoy them - there were two in each pod!! The garlic and butter made me put it in my future order category. GM Matt spoiled me with his surprise birthday desert - nothing we ever expected. Matt, you and your staff are the reason we are regulars. Thank you again! read more

We showed up with a group of 8. I hadn't been to Fish Bones before. Bone Fish, yes. Great ambiance inside and the location they had us in was nice and quiet to talk. Six of us ordered the Chef's Combo, which gives you four options: pork chop, chicken breast, Jumbo fried shrimp and Trigger Fish. It also came with a nice cheesy bread and salad. All for $39. I opted for the pork chop and Trigger Fish. Pork chop was huuuuuuge. Great flavor. Trigger fish was okay but kind of bland. We also had the Cauliflower app. An entire head with cheesy awesomeness baked all over it. Yummy! Service was mixed. The server was super nice and provided a lot of information. And it seemed like we had at least 3 managers stop by to ask how things were. But the delivery was off on refills. My wife loves unsweet tea with lime. The tea came. No lime. And it took at least 15 minutes to get to our table. Then a different server came back with a plate of cut up limes... nice. But she had to ask for a refill on the tea and it eventually came 15 or more minutes later. Her ice had melted. She asked for more. Never came. She said "forget it," and just drank water. Overall good experience and we plan to come back as a couple and see if it is different than as a group. read more

The aroma when you first walk in is amazing. The atmosphere was lovely. Every employee that we encountered was friendly and welcoming. Our server was so attentive and gave us great recommendations.

First time visiting and it will not be our last. When you arrive you are instantly greeted. The waiters are all dressed to the 9 and wear gloves when serving your food. They are also very courteous and attentive. We got our drinks and appetizer quickly. The food was very good & fresh. I love how private and cozy the room we were in felt, I ordered the Salmon and my husband got the combo with trigger fish & shrimp. I am very very picky with my seafood since we are a fishing family and eat fresh fish constantly. This fish was DELICIOUS. The salmon was moist and buttery, the seasoning was perfection & the garlic broccoli was cooked just right with whole garlic, butter and red pepper flakes. My husband thoroughly enjoyed his meal. The drink was very good and my affogato was the cherry on top for dessert. Espresso was not burnt & paired perfectly with the icecream. Impressed with the service & the restaurant wasn't very busy. read more

This was my 3rd time patronizing this restaurant. And I enjoyed the food and staff were very attentive. Kareem was our waitstaff and he took very good care of all our dining needs. Whenever we're in the Sanford area we will definitely come back. Highly recommend. read more

Stopped in to FishBones. Last time I was here it was great. Today I am so disappointed. My grouper for $43 was burnt on one side and over done (dry & tough). While the waiter was very good, friendly and professional; the manager, Sam, was not. He seemed more combative and confrontational than trying to be helpful. I didn't ask for anything and didn't receive anything. I'm mostly really disappointed that i drove 45 min to go here. I'll never be back. read more

My husband and I were just here for our anniversary dinner. It was, by far, the best dinner experience we've ever had. I say experience because what we had was a completely awesome experience, from our absolutely fabulous and attentive server, Mitchell, to our wonderfully engaging conversation with the Operating Partner, Matthew, to the above and beyond delicious meal. We couldn't have had a better anniversary dinner anywhere. Our meal began with the Colossal Blue Crab Martini which was so fresh and delicious. Mitchell recommended the truffle butter, which was such a nice compliment to the fresh crab. But, if truffle butter isn't your thing, you will enjoy the cocktail sauce and aioli that comes with it. My husband really enjoyed the clam chowder (filled with fresh clams). We then had the house salad and garlic cheese bread. One word: YUM!! Because it was our anniversary, the manager brought us a tasting of tuna tartar on tortilla chips. Oh my goodness! How tasty. Next were our entrees. Me: halibut; my husband: triggerfish. Both in a Beurre Blanc sauce. DEVINE!! Our sides: lobster mac nand cheese and a Colossal Sea Salted Baked Potato. Both of them were so good. Our last course was the Redemption Bourbon Salted Carmel Brownie. That was the best salted carmel ice cream I've ever had. The brownie was pretty good, too. You really need to make a reservation and go to Fishbones. You will not be disappointed. I'm already looking forward to my next visit. read more

Food was great. Ambience and service was outstanding. Great restaurant for fine dining.

My husband and I haven't been to Fish Bones for many years due to the fact that the place went downhill; however, after some research and looking at their current menu, we decided to give this restaurant another try. Soooo happy we did! The inside of the restaurant has been totally remodeled and is gorgeous. Except for the outside dining area, we didn't recognize it. They have quite a number of different dining areas including the outdoor dining. Beautiful bar area (with beautiful high top tables, totally separate from the other dining areas. Now the food...delicious, delectable and plenty of it. I had the Seafood Scampi with shrimp, clams and scallops. My dish was scrumptious! My husband had the 16 ounce Prime Rib (medium) came out perfect. He also had a loaded baked potato, which was enough for two people. What really made our eyes bug out is when they brought his side of broccoli , (this is no exaggeration) there was enough for FOUR PEOPLE! Needless to say, we took a lot of food home. I had a wonderful cocktail before dinner called a bacon blue cheese martini...yum and some delightful Moscato wine with my meal. Oh, as an appetizer, we both had escargot, which we love. It was scrumptious! Gary had a cocktail before dinner called, Gary's smoked old fashioned, also very tasty The staff is very professional, helpful, attentive and courteous! The restaurant is just huge inside so the only negative thing I have is that need restrooms at either end of the restaurant! My husband and I had the most amazing dining experience and will be back soon. Along with our boxes of extra food to take home, we ordered two desserts to go; Chocolate Cake and a Salted Caramel Cheesecake! WOW Go online and take a look see at the pictures of the restaurant, food and cocktails. read more

FishBones - Great Happy Hour menu - Sushi Bars Near Me - Lake Mary, Florida

Went during happy hour. The good drinks and craft beer you would want is of course not on special. Only 2 craft beers on happy hour and wasn't the popular good choices. I tried a sample of the craft beer with a hint of grapefruit in it and it was not cold at all and wasn't good in my opinion. Tried an old fashioned during happy hour and it wasn't good either because it had way too many original bitters in it instead of orange bitters and all I could taste was bitters not bourbon at all. Bitters can be very strong and a little bit goes a long way. Please don't use crushed ice in an old fashioned. Please use a large or round cube for a true proper old fashioned and the drink should not have a red color to it. Didn't taste any bourbon in it. Prime rib steak sandwich is on the happy hour menu and it actually tastes and the texture of a Arby's roast beef sandwich. The beef is shaved like a Arby's sandwich and actually tastes like one. Comes with fries. The oysters were very small and was not cleaned properly. Was not worth $18. The dang bang shrimp was the winner of the night and other $5.00 tea. Tried to give this place another chance but not sure I will come back $62 for happy hour is pretty pricey for happy hour plus tip. Like the atmosphere. You can sit inside and outside. Hostess was very nice. Would have liked to see a printed list of happy hour drinks on the menu instead of select martinis, select beer and select cocktails. It should be easy for a customer to select the right cocktail for them not guess what is on happy hour. Manager never came to our table on both visits. read more

I'll start with the server. She was amazing and knowledgeable. The salad and garlic butter rolls are really a great way to start the meal. You don't even need to order any apps because of this. However I was told the lobster bisque was really good. I got the crab cakes. More than filling. The au gratin potatoes were great too. Cool restaurant with Aquarium when you walk in. Neat place in Lake Mary. read more

We hosted our mom's 90th birthday party here, and the experience exceeded our expectations. The event was a combination cocktail party and dinner in one of their private spaces, and the people, food and space made it memorable (predominantly the people and food). 1. Food: in an area not exactly known for cuisine, the food was great! We had passed apps in addition to a multi-course dinner, as well as a cake from the Glass Knife (which was soo tasty). People repeatedly commented on the quality of the food, and I was on the same page - everything I tasted was good-to-great (didn't waste space on the bread). We figured the fried lobster would be basic because...it's fried, but it was flavorful even without the sauce. The most surprising were the scallops: restaurants regularly ruin them, and these were perfect and packed with flavor. Hats off to both the recipe creators and the chefs of the evening. 2. Staff: top notch. We worked with Jessica in the months leading up to the event, and the on-site team - Kimberly, Dylan, Daniel, Casey and Michelle - thank you for taking such good care of everyone, and most importantly, for making mom feel special. 3. Vibe: professional team and nice space. We merged two of the private rooms to accommodate a bar, cocktail hour space and dinner tables, and it was great. Nice room, good lighting, etc. Overall, a great event! We highly recommend them. read more

Wow! What a great surprise it was to visit this restaurant. I was in town for a meeting with two important clients this week when we can for dinner. We were staying at the neighboring Marriott and none of us had ever been to FishBones and we had no preconceived impressions and honestly didn't really have high expectations. We'd just gotten off planes and were looking for a place to eat. From the moment we entered, the three of us were treated like the most important guests. Our server, Latroy, was a true professional. He knew the menu inside and out and made all of us feel welcome. The manager who came by (I can't remember her name) was also fantastic. Oh, and the food was delightful! Everything was beautifully prepared, fresh, and very visually appealing. I think we all took pics to share with our significant others who weren't able to join us. My clients also inquired about holing future events at FishBones and Latroy was equally great at showing us the rooms available and discussing potential options. It's obvious that the staff care about a job well done and ensuring their customers have a great experience. I'd recommend FishBones to any friend or colleague and I'd love to return there for another meal. read more

I would like to say thank you to the young gentleman and young lady that works at Fishbone. On Saturday, May 10,2025 after me and my wife left your establishment our vehicle would not start and you came out to help us you went above and beyond the call of duty and I sincerely appreciate that. You two are prime examples of what great customer satisfaction is all about creating a great guest experience and you did that for us you have a bright future ahead and great things are coming. Thank you read more

I ordered the chef special, which was a humongous Caribbean lobster tail, and it tasted fantastic. The Dang Bang shrimp was also pretty good. However, I was disappointed to be charged for butter, as it's something everyone typically eats with lobster. For such a nice establishment, it felt like they were nickel-and-diming. That said, the service was exceptional. My waitress was phenomenal, and two managers checked in during my meal. I would definitely recommend this place and plan to return to try other menu items. They should consider including sauces for the lobster tail as well. read more

Fish Bones never disappoints! It has been a while since going there (over a year). It's nice to see that the service, menu, and atmosphere is still on point. Honestly, I forgot how great this restaurant is! I highly recommend reservations if you are planning on going on a Friday evening or the weekend for dinner. Something that is new, or I do not remember is the $38 Chef special. For 38 you can choose 2 proteins and it comes with bottomless house salad and bread. The portions are huge! I had the char-grilled pork chop and fried shrimp. The shrimp was enough for dinner and the pork chop could have easily been for 2 people. The house salad was also amazing. I am not sure what their inhouse salad dressing is, but it is very good. They have a nice selection of signature cocktails. Yes, at signature cocktail prices. But again, you get what you pay for 100% at Fish Bones. This was the first time sitting outside on their covered patio. The patio has full service the same as the restaurant as well as a full-service bar. It was a little louder than I would have like just because we were sat close to the live acoustic singer. But you can request a table that is further away. The outdoor patio is large with plenty of regular table and high-top table seating. This place is the perfect location for a date night or special occasion! read more

Spent my birthday at Fishbones hoping for a great dining experience and it was just that! Great service, great food, and great ambience. We had two appetizers shrimp and scallops, both were delicious! The house salad was extra special and delicious. The crab cakes seemed plentiful, 3 served, too salty, sure it was the claw meet and not lump crab, hence the larger serving, would not recommend, ribeye steak tender but little salty too.. Complimementary icecream for my birthday which was sweet! Overall excellent experience and will visit again. read more

Maddie is a friendly server. If she worked at a place that didn't sneak a tip on the bill without telling you she'd make more money. One of the two stars belong to her. Cold food. Steak, potatoes not even warm much less hot. Sushi guy quit in the middle of our order. Manager came by our table and long after our table mates got their appetizers asking how things were, we mentioned not seeing our sushi. She left and we assumed she or someone would be back (with the sushi ideally) but after 10 more minutes...nothing. Had to ask again. We were gracious and patient but seriously. We cancelled it and shortly after it arrived...everyone else long done with their items. They comped us so thank you but really... Ordered a 24oz lobster. Came breaded, chopped in pieces, stringy and (you guessed it) cold. Served on a huge bed of lettuce to make it look like there was a lot of lobster. Nah. Happy hour is the only reason to ever come here again as this is not even remotely up to the $ and standard for "nice dining". Never returning for dinner... read more

FishBones - Scraps of breaded (lobster??) stringy mess, ice cold. Piled on lettuce to make it look good, hard to imagine it was 24oz as represented. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Lake Mary, Florida

We love going here for happy hour! alex is a fabulous manager who got us a great table outside by the fire pits. Happy hour has fabulous sushi and great drinks from 4-6. On the main menu we love the lobster mac and the mahi. for happy hour, we always get the dragon roll, and a spicy, tuna roll paired with the wontons (shown below). The lobster Mac is a " side" but it's definitely big enough for two people to share and we usually have leftovers to take home. The ambience near the fire pits outside is very calming. However, the inside is a little bit more elegant with the lighting. read more

Food was outstanding. service was excellent and they always make us feel special. Highly recommended.

Normally would never give this place a bad review. We came in for happy hour and one of the items we ordered was the oysters on the half shell raw and also smoked. 4 orders at $17 & $19 for 6 oysters on each platter. They should have never made it to our table. They were awful, so small about the size of a dime. The raw were not even shucked properly and the smoked oysters were burnt so when we let the waitress know, the manager sent another 6 smoked oysters and they were even smaller and worse. Do not recommend ordering the oysters, the reason why we ordered them is because the last time we were there they were delicious. read more

FishBones - Sushi and martini - Sushi Bars Near Me - Lake Mary, Florida

In decades of fine dining this experience was new to me--feeling that the proprietor was purposely scamming me. An unpalatable vein steak was attempted to be passed as a NY Strip, which is shocking because I can't imagine anyone being pleased with the majority of it being connective tissue and fat. Separately, a prime rib arrived that was cold to the touch (literally refrigerated cold!). The "Hawaiian triggerfish" entrée was a bit of a conundrum as we are not sure what iit actually was--too large a fillet to be the popular Hawaiian reef triggerfish (humuhumunukunukuapua'a in Hawaiian), and too tasteless to be a grey triggerfish. Perhaps another imposter? In any case all three entrees were embarrassingly bad. I felt really bad for our server who was very attentive. With that said the sushi rolls were good, the cocktails creative and well crafted. The bread service was truly fantastic. The dessert and service did not disappoint. It was not lost on me that the beef is not said to be prime, and clearly it is not, despite being priced at that level. read more

I totally will recommend Fishbones !!! I'm always excited when I come here .. I got the filet 8oz with 3 shareable sides how do you spell as asparagus , loaded bake potato, and sauté mushrooms... absolutely delicious they have an all you can eat house salad with olive vinaigrette that's amazing along with cheesy garlic bread that automatically vines to the table ... service was on point and next to none ... she absolutely made sure we had full glasses at all times .. we sat outside on the patio and the weather was perfect.. I love the mermaid name bathrooms for the women and the ocean themed decor was my style ... it's a step above the rest type of restaurant. read more

My wife and I stopped into FishBones to take advantage of their happy hour prices for appetizers and drinks on a Saturday evening in late October. It has been a while since we have been here; however, not much has changed. We were greeted promptly and chose our seats at the bar. Shortly after, the bartender took our drink and food order. We ordered the Dang Bang Shrimp ($10), Lady Dragon Roll ($12), and two draft IPA's ($5 each). We received our drinks right away, and the food was out in about 10 minutes. Our dishes were fresh and delicious! I love the Dang Bang Shrimp - crunchy fried butterflied shrimp coated in spicy sauce. I could eat these all night long, not the best contrast with an IPA, but who cares! The Lady Dragon Roll had the perfect amount of sweet/savory mix: Eel sauce, cream cheese, and avocado to offset the heat of the Dang Bang shrimp. I highly recommend stopping in during happy hour as both of these menu items price for $17 each. We had a great experience at FishBones; however, dining is pricy! Two beers and two appetizers cost $40 minus tip, which is a full tank of gas for some people. I will return in the future for the drink specials but might reserve my appetite for a more affordable local favorite. read more

We went to celebrate our recent marriage. We were given a sushi appetizer on the house, had a round of sparkling rosè and Prosecco, the oysters were fresh, house salads and bread were amazing, we had the double cut pork chop and the prime rib as our entrees (au gratin potatoes and sautéed mushrooms as sides) and our 2nd drinks were the watermelon celebration and Washington state apple.

My family made a reservation here for my birthday. I love steak, but I couldn't even eat half of my $70 plate. The meat was completely salty. I hope the chef finds this recommendation helpful, because it's a good restaurant. read more

This is the first time I've left Fish Bones disappointed. The first over sight was I had to ask for bread service. Bread service usually comes out with the drinks, or shortly after. Ours had not arrived by the time the appetizers were served. The steaks were cooked well as were the baked potatoes. But, the food was salty, it wasn't just my dish, it was the entire table. So the chef has a heavy hand with the salt. I would love to say it was just the steaks, but it was the potatoes and the chicken. That was what made the experience disappointing for my family. The food on this night definitely wasn't worth the price we paid. read more
