Dim lights and couches making it feel casual but yet upscale at the same time. The host and the wait staff was super attentive and great to have, no issues or problems with them. They were very kind and accommodating and super helpful in terms of trying to figure out all allergies and what my child could or cannot eat, but also make adjustments so that she has options. Now for the food! We had gotten the beef skewer and chicken skewers as appetizers and let me tell you they were probably the best meat skewers that I've had in a Izakaya style Japanese restaurant. The steak was so tender and had great flavor, same with the chicken! The sauce was good, maybe a bit too heavy on the sauce but good pairing! 5/5 The tuna flight was . So good and the cuts of tuna was so tender and was amazing, good garnishes on top! 5/5 The rolls, we got a couple Yellow Fever: it was good, I'm not sure if I was a fan of the asparagus but it was good to have every now and then every other bite or so but not every time. It did have a slight kick to it but I liked it. Distinguished Gentleman: was great. The meat was tender and it had good flavor and my kids enjoyed it as a more kid friendly sushi, but I also enjoyed one bite that I was able to sneak before the kids devoured it. Shrimp Tempura roll (specially made for allergies): Standard goodness! I also almost forgot, I had gotten King Salmon nigiri and also eel nigiri, salmon was good! Normal salmon vibes 4/5 but the eel...probably the most disappointing menu item tbh. Tasted like the frozen Asian grocery store eel, just underwhelming and not a little tough. 2/5 wouldn't order again. but Overall, it was everything was great, we had good service and good food! It's a bit expensive but I Would come back!

Kitchen is also open with a bar that looks directly into the kitchen as you dine. Drinks are simple. Plum wine, Japanese whisky options, beer, and soft drinks. Also a few mixed drinks, but again nothing crazy or exciting. Food was fresh and pretty good. The tuna sashimi appetizer was fantastic! The sauce is like a yum-yum and black sesame blend. Incredible. The bowl was wayyyyyy too sweet for me. Too much of the sauce. But the rice and chicken were pretty good. The pork belly is grilled and not seasoned much. So added it to the bowl to calm the sweet and it worked well. Overall, this place isn't worth queuing for, but still pretty good considering its location. Solid 6/10 for me.

The water here is clean tasting. To save the turtles they do not provide straws. I usually request the tempura and CA roll dine in and the rest is packed to go. (I get full fast). I always request to replace the side salad with the miso soup instead and they are ok with doing that. The tempura is lightly battered (2 shrimp, 2 green bean, eggplant , sweet potato). The tempura sauce is delicious. The CA roll is ok I mean its krab, avocado. Nothing fancy. It is rolled in masago. Staff here they have tendency to forget to refill water so try to request 2-3 glasses in advance when they ask for drink orders. Always check out the menu board - The specials can be interesting. My fave on that board that they offer sometimes is the beef tendon with tofu for like $6 ish. Love it with a side of white rice . The sauce is delicious. Reminds me of beef gyudon sauce. This place can get busy with japanese customers - especially lunch hours. The lunch bento specials only are for lunch. Dinner do not have bento specials. They are closed for summer vacation and will re open on June 19th - I am not sure the start date of the vacation - I know its sometime early June.

We went all in on the Supreme AYCE ($74 per person) and honestly? Worth every dollar. The meat was insanely fresh, super tender, and just kept coming. There's something about grilling it yourself that makes the whole experience feel fun and a little bougie at the same time. Shoutout to June, our waitress -- she was attentive, quick, and made sure we never ran low on anything (which is crucial when you're in AYCE mode). If you're in Orlando and want a solid, interactive dining experience with top-tier meats, this is it. Already plotting my next visit.

I did enjoy the salon and scallop don as well as the tempura don. Sour: the appetizers aren't anything special especially the shrimp shumai. Seems like the frozen ones you can get at the grocery store. Stick to the don bowls or even the bentos.

Overall, I really enjoyed our meal here…read more Just a heads up this place is loud so this is not the restaurant you want to have an intimate conversation. However, it is quite fun, when we got there on a Saturday night, they were having a Taylor Swift look alike performance. I absolutely loved it. It turned out it was happening every hour so we were able to watch her perform twice. They also had someone selling jewelry and an artist painting, overall it is such a fun vibe. If you want a standard table, you need to make a reservation, I made a reservation like 15 minutes before and they only had outdoor seating and high tops available. We chose a high top and it was fine. They do have a kids menu so my son was able to order a cheese pizza with a side of fries and the other one ordered a chicken quesadilla with a side of fruit. On the kids menu it says cheese quesadilla but he really wanted chicken, I was surprised the chicken was a bit spicy. He ate a couple bites and then asked for his own cheese pizza after seeing his brothers. All the plates are meant to be shared so they come out whenever they're ready. My older son's cheese pizza came out immediately and then my younger son's chicken quesadilla came out after all our food had been delivered. I think this is what made him want a cheese pizza because he didn't have his own meal for majority of the time we were eating. When we finally ordered his cheese pizza it then took a long time to come out. I'm guessing it's because it's woodfired and his pizza was behind a ton of other pizzas whereas with my older son we must've ordered at a good time. My absolute favorite dish was the marinated cucumbers. It was a light and delicious. It reminds me of what I find at a Japanese restaurant. I also got the butter chicken, it was OK. I didn't find the chicken super tender so I would skip it next time. We also got the maple glazed chicken wings. I found the breading to be overly salty. I ended up taking off all of the breading and my younger son ate a ton of the chicken. I would skip it next time. We got the steak skewers, which were pretty delicious. Again didn't love it so probably would get something else next time. My husband did not like his ribs so he definitely should skip that next time. So overall, the food was OK, but my kids absolutely destroyed their pizza and I love the atmosphere, which is why I'm giving this place four stars. I see that it has great potential. If parking is a problem, I recommend parking at icon park and walking because it's about five minutes away. Our server was super nice, she was a bit slow, but she also had a giant table next to us, which could've contributed to that. I would definitely come back. I enjoyed our experience here.

The service was attentive throughout the meal, and the ambiance was modern, lively, and perfect for celebrations. I was honestly really surprised by the quality of the fish for an AYCE sushi spot. Everything tasted fresh and was beautifully presented. My favorites were definitely the scallops, salmon, and ebi shrimp -- all were fresh, flavorful, and nicely prepared. The presentation of each dish made the experience feel more upscale than your typical all-you-can-eat restaurant. Overall, we had a great dining experience and would absolutely come back again whenever we're in Orlando. Perfect spot for groups, celebrations, or sushi lovers looking for good quality AYCE.

Dragonfly is like in between a pretty upscale and a more lowkey sushi place. The ambiance is really pleasant and it's decorated nicely. We sat in the big outdoor patio which was really nice. We tried the nigiri sampler and it was incredible. 9-10 different slices of a variety of fish atop rice beds, and everything was splendid. It was such high quality and that's not always the case when trying nigiri, sashimi or sushi rolls. The rolls we tried were delish too, everything we tried was so good. If you want an overall lovely dining experience, from entry to atmosphere to service to actual food, you'll get exactly that from Dragonfly Robata!

Both the host and our server, Hannah, were very friendly throughout the evening. The restaurant was unfortunately quite loud and cold, which made for an uncomfortable atmosphere at times. On the drinks side, service was quick and the selection was excellent -- be sure to check out the rotating tap menu on the back wall, as it features some of the best options. That said, our attention was never pointed to the draft list, so it's worth seeking it out yourself when you visit. The wings were a standout -- our group went through four orders. The ramen was solid as well; one person did receive the wrong bowl, but Hannah promptly corrected the order without any fuss. One thing worth noting: there is a 20% autogratuity applied to parties of six or more. Totally understandable, though it would have been appreciated if this had been mentioned when the bill was presented. Overall an enjoyable outing!
