                  My wife and I visit Orlando once or twice a year, and The Boathouse is always on our calendar. Great food in a wonderful venue. One of our favorite restaurants anywhere.

                  The Connecticut style lobster roll was really good and the lobster portion was generous. The Mahi Mahi sandwich was amazing and I highly recommend it. It had a ton of flavor and seasoning. The service is really good too.

                  Great food, a little pricey though. Open dining makes for a loud dining environment. But excellent views of the waterfront
