    Stopped by Ole Red on International Drive on a Saturday night. It was surprisingly pretty quiet for a weekend evening, which made for a laid-back atmosphere but not quite the lively vibe we expected. The drinks were okay -- nothing standout, but decent. The highlight of the night was definitely the band. They did a great job, sounded tight, and brought good energy to the room. If you're looking for live music in the area, it's worth checking out -- hopefully on a busier night for a more upbeat crowd.

    My mother was visiting town and is a fan of Blake Shelton, so why not stop in for dinner. We were already at Icon Park for the Orlando Eye when we heard the country music playing which drew us in. It was around 5pm on a Friday night and the place was not very busy and we were seated right away. The restaurant is a live music venue. It has two floors, large stage in the center of the first floor and a large bar in the back. There is also a gift shop in the front with all sorts of merch and a photo booth where you can take a selfie with the Blake Shelton cardboard cutouts (which of course we had to do). The whole time (besides a few breaks) live music bands are playing. Our server was friendly and attentive. We started out trying one of the cocktails which was not bad and you even got to keep the glass mason jar style cup. Let's get to the food. We ordered the giant BBQ board to split between the two of us and had LOTS of leftovers to bring home. We thought this was the best way to try a little bit of everything. Standouts were the pulled pork and sausage. Plus the cornbread was delicious. The Mac n cheese was so-so. Also the baked beans needed more seasoning. The corn was yummy and the ribs were cooked well. The music was good and had nice energy in the room. Plenty of songs to sing along to.

    I really enjoyed coming here. I came on a Sunday around 1 and they had great live music. It was surprisingly, not too busy so service was fast. The burger and fries were great, but the loaded tattoo is what really did it for me!

    Took over 15 minutes to even get a server after we were sat. Then an additional 15 to get drinks. Food was horrible. Everything was lacking flavor.Burger was rubbery and the only taste you really got was liquid smoke. Should have known better when we didnt smell any smoke walking up to the building or when we walked in. On top of the over priced bad food, if you have a party of 6 or more they automatically add gratuity so you have no choice but to tip 20% for the horrible service

    Never have been here before, but when I walked up the stairs, we came as a group from our company and they had every TV advertising our company which was really cool and very welcoming. Didn't understand exactly what I was looking at because I was like wait a minute that's her logo so that was very impressive. Then as we walked around, they were handing out hors d'oeuvres and the bar was open and there's gaming and we were upstairs because I heard some music that I looked down to see what I'm listening to and there was a live band, which is really really cool. The food was pretty good not five stars or anything, but it was pretty good. I will tell you that this service is absolutely amazing. The place is really awesome. Overall I would say this is a great place to go and hang out dance. Play some games and have some pretty decent food.

    Got seated sooner than expected, host and server with good memory. Adequate food portion. Good place for live music if your ears aren't as sensitive to the volume, 4 stars overall as talented performers won't disappoint.

    My family and I love Ole Red. Service was great. My niece had a great time learning to line dance to a couple songs. The live music is always so good. I tried the Buckshot Tacos which were yummy. We all shared the cornbread which is so good and I definitely recommend trying.

    This looks like such a cool place. I could never spend long inside as I arrived late. The first night it was closed due to a private party, which is nice that you have that option. We wanted to eat there for a late night snack but the kitchen was already closed so I recommend checking the hours beforehand. Seems to have two tiers...upstairs may be just for dining. Heading back soon and will come earlier.

    Tania was great ! Food was also very good. came to Orlando to celebrate an 18th birthday and defiantly enjoyed ole red.

    Not sure my wife and I are the TARGET AUDIENCE for Ole Red. Located on International Drive in Orlando, this is Blake Shelton's restaurant. He has one in Nashville as well. Our experience in Orlando was ok. First let me say our waitress Julianna was very good. She served with a smile and knew the menu very well as she had many favorites and recommendations. There was live music going on from a local duo and I have to admit the volume was very nice...not real loud which was nice. The prices went from reasonable to expensive but our bill for 2 was manageable. The food was tasty but at the same time just ok. I will say parking was challenging as we had to drive around the block before finding a parking garage. Understand on International Drive you have many options for food. Do your research ahead of time so you are not stuck at a place you will not be happy at

    Bluetick Burger with tots
    Jenn B.

    My husband and I decided to check out Icon Park today. We decided to have lunch at Blake Shelton's "Ole Red" restaurant. We were seated immediately, our server came over shortly after and took our drink order which was margaritas. When our drinks were served we ordered our lunch. I ordered the Bluetick burger with cheese minus lettuce and done rare with tots. My husband ordered the Boom Smash burger Oklahoma style with fries, he asked done rare but she said it was too hard to do for smash burgers. When our food came out my burger was delicious, so juicy the bottom bun soaked up all the juices. May have been more medium rare vs the rare I ordered but still very satisfying. My husband's smashed burger was ok, his was overcooked for the way he has eaten other smashed burgers. Our drinks were good but were served in little plastic cups which you would expect for the price to be in a glass but they were good drinks. They did have videos playing on a big screen but different music playing in the restaurant, not sure why they don't have the music of the videos playing. We are happy we went and would like to go back to see the live band one evening with dinner.

    The place was awesome walking in the music was great the atmosphere needed a little pep in their step! The bartenders were attentive after a couple minutes waiting. The food around us look good. Bar patrons beware!!!!! We stood for an hour for chairs by the bar waiting for a seat! Once they moved around 7:30 standing right by the chairs we went to sit!! And the security grabbed the chair literally right away as we were about to sit!! It was shocking for us and patrons around us! We spent a lot of money waiting and it was insulting to wait that long and then have it taken away! Understand if there was an over flow but it wasn't even close i included a pictures of space! As a neighborhood place we visit this was a disappointment!!

    Is there a dance floor?

    Not when we went but it didn't stop people from dancing by their tables. There is room. Have fun.

    Is there a schedule for live music?

    If you go to the "Orlando" location website, it will provide the month of November, the scheduled artist and time. 😁 Have Fun

    Uber. But if you're driving then park in the parking garage. It's not that bad of a walk!

We were staying at a Holiday Inn near Disney Springs so we decided to come here for a late dinner. One of the best decisions made here. We did a late night walk through the shopping center and landed here around 9:50 pm. It was pretty late and we worried there would be no seats but we were seated promptly. The establishment was very ambient, cozy, and well furnished. I liked the warm, glowing atmosphere of the restaurant. The server was extremely polite and took our order quite soon. We were starving after a long day but the food came out in around 20ish minutes which wasn't too bad. The serving sizes were quite huge. We didn't expect this much food for two portions. For $34 per plate, the dishes were large and came with a large helping of sides. The fried chicken was extremely crispy and juicy. They originally wanted to serve the food quickly/more fresh so they served a chicken thigh to me after on a second plate. They also forgot my substitution of Mac n cheese for mash potatoes so I got a free helping of mash which was sweet. The pickled cucumber was light and fresh which tasted great with the heavier chicken. The potatoes were a little heavy and I wish came with gravy, but still delicious. I really loved the Mac n cheese and finished that up. The chicken steak was also delicious with the grits but a little too salty. Wish they added the grits to the side for me to dip as it became a little too much at times. It was better to eat it with a side of potatoes to balance the flavor. The broccolini was sautéed perfectly and delicious, could eat a whole plate of those alone. The biscuits weren't bad but tasted better eaten with the potatoes. The food was a little heavy but so so good. We had to take half of the food to our hotel and ate it the next day for dinner as it was way too much food for one meal. Even after microwaving it, the food was just as delicious and flavorful. We spent about $80 but had so much food leftover. An expensive dinner, but everything tasted amazing. Would definitely come back if I had the chance.

She should have taken it off the bill considering only 1 bite was eaten. Main courses, Shrimp Etouffee for my husband and Shrimp and Grits with Debris Gravy for me. The Etouffee was very soupy. It had to be eaten with a spoon. I tasted it and all I could taste was tomato sauce and stewed Tomatoes. He said it was ok, but was obvious no one ever tasted ot while cooking.
