    A forever favorite spot. Anytime in Disney Springs, this is our go to (even making reservations well in advance). Grateful for another lovely experience with excellent service and incredible food - shrimp, salad, mac-n-cheese (adult and child versions), steak, roasted chicken, and cocktails! Yum!

    The service was absolutely terrible it took the server 30 minutes to even address the table, and then it was down hill from there … it took forever to get our drinks to our bread to our food. My son didn’t get his side that came with the meal and when we asked the server he said he would bring it out but never did …. Never once did the server ask if we wanted anything except when taking our order. It ruined my parent’s anniversary dinner. It also took 20 minutes to get the bill once we were done.

    We were seated outside so the noise level was minimal. However, inside it was so much worse. The prices are high so be prrpared before you choose this. The ambience of the water and heater lamps were so nice. The food was good.

    We waited over 40 minutes for 2 tacos and 2 kids meals. Food was not tasty at all. Small portion and bland. The restaurant itself is beautiful.

    We’ve dined many times at The Boathouse and have been very happy with our visits. The food was good but the kitchen was a little slow with our service but Shante was a delight: professional and knowledgeable. Good job. We will be back.

    Nathan was our server and he was fabulous. So attentive, helpful, knowledgeable and funny. He’s such a great asset to this company. I had a bowl of soup, which was very good. For my entree I ordered a crab cake. It was a good size however I found it a bit dry. I wouldn’t order it again. There are so many items to choose from. I will definitely come back again. Drinks & complementary bread were very good. Great ambiance.
