We tried the burger, fish sandwich, and wings, and this restaurant's take on Polynesian inspired food was excellent. The flavors were well done across the board. The fish sandwich could have used a bit more fish, but the taste itself was very good. The dining experience was professional, and the atmosphere was pleasant and relaxed. While prices at the resort are on the higher side, they clearly put care into the quality of the food, and the meal felt worth the price. read more

Papaya Club is Polynesian inspired that alone was reason for me to try. The grouper market fish sandwich had a lovely poly sauce with very thinly diced carrots and cabbage. I throughly enjoyed and ravished every bite of it. read more

Papaya Club - Yum in the Tum. - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Papaya Club is located at Conrad Orlando at Evermore. It's next to the lagoon and has beautiful water views. We were sat at a nice lounge seating area overlooking the lagoon. Nice and cozy for a relaxed dinner. Not gonna lie, everything here is quite pricey! But beautiful indoor/outdoor tropical beach vibe here with plenty of seating. Our server was Omar and he was wonderful. Very hospitable and nice. He was also helpful in recommendations for food and drinks. Everything we ordered: * Surf Rider $20 * Grilled Jerk Chicken Wings $28 * Maui-Style Ribs $26 * Crab Cake $28 * Fried Fish Sandwich $32 MKT * Pandan Tres Leches $12 Got Surf Rider with Mezcal substitute, no additional cost. Omar confirmed price was same for this sub. Grilled Jerk Chicken Wings had great flavor but wish it was crispier. Maui-Style Ribs were so damn good and I don't even love ribs, I think it was the Asian style ribs and flavor that I actually enjoyed. Fell off the bone meat too. Crab Cakes were just ok and for $28 it was not worth it for that one crab cake. Fried Fish Sandwich was my favorite as it had good texture with slaw, pickled and herbs combo along with the generous portion of red snapper fish! I was excited about the Pandan Tres Leches because I love pandan flavors but this didn't hit the spot for me. Pandan flavor was good but didn't love it as Tres Leches, maybe try a Pandan Creme Brûlée or Cheesecake? Just an idea. Lovely dinner all in all. You cannot beat the front row seat to the lagoon and sunset. But honestly, it's really expensive for the appetizers. The market price of $32 for the Fried Fish Sandwich was fair and that was my favorite so it was worth it. Appetizers costing a whopping $26-$28 each was too much. We had a lovely experience though and happy we got to check it out. Food if great quality but overpriced for the appetizers. That's all. Everything else was wonderful. read more

Finally made it over to the Conrad! What a beautiful resort with plenty of fun places for food and drinks. We stopped for a drink at the Papaya Club before dinner, and the ambiance in there is gorgeous. Feels just like a tropical beach vacation! We didn't try any of the food, but it looked good as well. I chose the spritz drink with gin; it wasn't my favorite, but there is a whole book of tiki drinks to choose from and I know tiki drinks are often on the sweeter side. Bartenders were very friendly and helpful, and I'd love to come back! read more

Stopped by on Saturday and had an amazing meal! We had the poke bowl & the chicken Thai noodle bowl. I added Serrano peppers to my poke bowl and it was *chef's kiss* The poke bowl was so filling and delicious. I can't stop thinking about it! I want to go back and have another! It was truly so amazing and refreshing! read more

Service was fantastic, food was just ehhhh, I expected a lot more for what I was paying. Environment is very relaxed, situated between the pool and the lagoon, it's open air dining. Although, they do have a poo poo platter... So they get points for having poo poo on their menu. And no, I won't grow up. read more

Full disclosure: I came with a friend who works at Hilton headquarters so I got all the following food items 50% off. We sat by the lagoon, which is beautiful and ordered food and drinks from the menu and they were brought to us, so this was a very pleasant and relaxing experience. Our server Carmen went above and beyond and brought us an ice bucket to cool down the drinks we even brought in. For starters we had the Asian Hummus, which was a very fun twist to the typical Mediterranean spices and I loved it. We also had the calamari and fried okra. The sauce was really good. Finally I had the papaya burger, and for a beach bar I did not have high hopes but it was actually really taste and done medium rare how I like it. We were also given complimentary scented towels and frozen grapes! I was impressed overall with the food and would come again. read more

Well next time I come to the Conrad you definitely find me in the club. The Papaya Club that is! What a great spot located right under the beautiful Conrad, Over looking the huge lagoon/ pool. The spot is low lit and with some good weather it is a great date spot. Starter: to start of the night we got some octopus, this was a grilled dish with some sauce the octopus was cooked perfectly not chewy at all. We also got some crudo (ceviche) this was the fish of the day ( can't remember what it was) with a some coconut milk and Serrano peppers. This was so refreshing with some great spice, this was my star starter. Lastly some shrimp toast and the spring roll these I put together because we did send the spring roll back not because it was bad but because we did like the shrimp toast better. Was fried toast with Shrimp. You have to see the picture to know what I am talking about only hint I can give is take it easy on the cilantro next time that was a BUNCH OR SHOULD I SAY BUSH. MAIN: For our main we did get the papaya burger that was yum yum gota get you some. It was very well cooked and the toppings all came together so well. The sandwich I also did enjoy a lot but I would have wanted some more meat. Unless my wife took some out without me looking. The bred was toasted and the meat was nice and juicy the toppings were fresh and the amount was just right. Service: This they get an A++ I am horrible with names so I can't shout out anyone but all I know if they all looked the same. It was awesome. They had great recommendations and they were very friendly. It was cool talking to them. Highly recommended!! read more

We stayed at the Conrad Orlando, which is a five star Hilton resort with a variety of different dining options. The papaya club is an indoor/outdoor poolside restaurant with a tiki bar inspired menu and a variety of food options, including Asian inspired cuisine. First, we truly enjoyed our cocktails, a mai tai and a Negroni. The mai tai was sweet, but not overly so, and refreshing with fresh mint, the Negroni was certainly more spirit forward as I had hoped it would be and served with a block of ice cube which I also appreciated for that extra touch. The presentation of the drinks was spectacular. The the menu also had several spirit free options, which looked equally delicious. We then perused the manual and instantly opted for the bahn mi, one of our favorite sandwiches, and a pork belly Ramen that I asked to be made extra spicy. First of all the Ramen was incredible and the noodles were Al dente and tasted homemade. The pork belly was perfectly juicy and crunchy, and there was an assortment of vegetables and mushrooms. The spice hit the spot. The bahn mi sandwich was crunchy, with freshly topped vegetables and delicious shaved ribeye steak. The fried tasted just like the ones from McDonald's! Overall, the food was totally worth it. The one drawback is that the entrée items range from $25-$30 which is not a surprise as this is a resort and prices are bound to be a bit higher, I still felt like it was worth the money. Of note, the final Bill includes a 18% service fee even for smaller tables of 2, so make sure to account for that! read more

A great vibe for lunch or dinner!! They had tables right in the sand for a more relaxed beach vibe, or tables in their gorgeous tropical space. I felt like I was in Hawaii. The poke bowl was fresh and yummy and I did ask for a side of spicy mayo which they had! The Thai steak salad was delicious I loved it and would get both again! They had a really nice cocktail menu as well with photos of the drinks and nice descriptions. A great place to dine! read more

This is located at the Conrad Orlando and is near the lagoon with a great view of the lagoon. Service was very good, all the servers are very friendly and helpful. The food is not cheap, as it is a Conrad hotel, but it is pretty good. I would give it a 3.5 out of five based on the selection of things we tried there. All in all, the atmosphere makes up for any shortcomings in the food. read more

Papaya Club - Oaxaca Colada - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Orlando, Florida

This restaurant charges gratuity on your bill, which is very high ! Pay your servers a decent wage so you don't try to rob your customers to pay them with high gratuities. The food was average, food prices fair , gratuities are too high. They want you to pay their employee fair, but right they don't pay the employee fair.!!! Not good! read more

This location is set on a beautiful resort. The presentation of the drinks were as unique as they were tasty. The service was excellent and fast considering the size of our party. The only downside was the mosquitos. They were terrible! I would definitely recommend but be sure to take the mosquito problem into consideration if you are sensitive. read more

Recently attended a conference at the Conrad Orlando. Found ourselves at the papaya club three different times for lunch. I was able to try multiple menu items and enjoyed all of them. The burger was one of the standouts. Everything was fresh and delicious. They had some absolutely french fries. read more

We popped into this restaurant to escape the rain from the lagoon and grab a bite for lunch. The drinks were pretty and delicious... made for a pretty picture, not too strong. The Brioche Buns were phenomenal! The bread was light and fluffy with a ginger sauce on top, crispy pork belly, and fresh veggies / herbs which balanced the heaviness of the pork. We sat at the couches on the outer edge so we were able to watch the lagoon also. Staff was very friendly and only a slight wait. read more

Great food. Good atmosphere. Very friendly. Would recommend. Nice view of the lagoon with great ambience.

We enjoyed their Alaula experience last night, which is an intimate beachside dining experience with a set menu. Dinner includes a tiki drink, appetizers, their pu pu platter for two and a dessert. Highly recommend it! read more

We recently stayed at the Conrad Orlando, absolutely beautiful resort, btw. And, we ate at Papaya club several times during our stay as the food was incredibly tasty & fresh. The tuna poke bowl was the best poke bowl I have ever had, & it is presented beautifully. The restaurant looks out onto the lagoon & is very relaxing. The server Stephanie we had a couple of times during our visit to the restaurant was super nice & friendly. Highly recommend this restaurant. We want to go back! Yum! read more

Papaya Club is hitting it out of the park with the perfect marriage of setting, food, drinks and overall service. This open air location boasts the most immersive experience in the Conrad Hotel. Set on the white beaches and poised for beautiful sunsets - we were very comfortable sitting back at our table taking it all in. The menu, both cocktails and food pair perfectly with this setting. We ordered five dishes, and each one was a pleasant surprise - bursts of vibrant, FRESH flavors that we each simply had to share just to show how our dish HAD to be the best one at the table. Our service was lovely, with team service we felt well cared for including offering us blankets when the air became nippy as the evening turned. Our only disappointment was the valet, as mentioned by another reviewer. We actually had a higher tab (due to a larger party) at Papaya Club than we did at Ceiba, yet they charge for parking at Papaya Club. This is NOT the fault of the restaurant and shouldn't deter you from going - but The Conrad is selling this location short by presenting it as less than Sophia or Ceiba. We were charged $10. plus tip for valet - note there is no other option for parking. I absolutely look forward to returning to Conrad and bringing friends to the Papaya Club. It oozes all those amazing Florida vibes you hope to catch when traveling here. I have to add, that wherever they are sourcing their produce - NEVER stop! The robust freshness and mouth-filling, aromatic flavors were beyond notable. It isnt often that you go to a restaurant and come away wishing you got to meet the farmer! read more

Food- Worst tuna sandwich ever. Tastes funky... was definitely not fresh Chicken tenders tasted like something you would buy from the freezer section of a grocery store....nothing special. Service- was there the afternoon of March 31st. The hostess handed us menus after we asked for a table. then we repeated ourselves and said that we had asked for a table, and she gave us attitude. no one greeted us or asked us for water for at least 20 minutes while sitting at a table. worst customer service. Ambience- waterside chill...definitely not the cleanest place. I didn't even have the breath to ask for a manager to discuss my concerns with the rudest hostess and the awful food, we just wanted to leave. Avoid this place if you are looking for a good meal and/or service. read more

We had 5 apps here and were blown away. For a throw away meal between lunch and dinner, we were very VERY pleasantly surprised by the food. This unassuming "pool bar" is putting out some of the best small plates in Orlando. Crazy good food coming out of this kitchen. Rice flour chicken wings and "back of the plate" tuna tar tar were outstanding. read more

This restaurant is offered in "Open Table" among the restaurants of the new Conrad hotel, so I wanted to try it after being enthusiastic about "Sophia's Trattoria". This Thursday evening, we were the only table... The manager Carlos welcomed us well. The waitress was charming but very slow... We tried several dishes which were original and very good, with exotic and refreshing flavors. The big negative point is that when paying the bill, we presented our valet tickets parking lot to have them validated. Carlos the manager then explained that the validation of the valet parking was only valid for Sophia and Ceiba (the Mexican restaurant), and it took a long negotiation to obtain free parking... The hotel not offering self parking, it is absolutely not logical to put "Papaya Club" on "Open Table" and not to validate free parking for local customers!!! The restaurant last night was empty (2 tables in all) so it would still be more profitable to allow locals to come and dine without impose the price of a hotel valet parking( $50!!!) The employees last night for this restaurant were more numerous than the number of customers...If Conrad does not don't change on this point, we won't come anymore...this which is a shame because the setting is very pleasant and exotic! read more
