Favorite Offsite Restaurant? Locals encouraged!

[DLBDS]

I was just wondering where folks go for really good food offsite. So far, I've discovered Bubbalou's Bodacious BBQ to be very promising. What's your opinion? Are there any locals here that know of some really good eats that's maybe off the beaten path? I have 3 nights that are OPEN on my itinerary. I want to have some really good choices besides Applebee's, Ruby Tuesday, Red Lobster etc. etc.. Where can you get awesome fried seafood and steak? I love seafood. Hubby loves steak and pork. So, what says YOU?

We love Bahama Breeze, it is the only offsite must do for us.

Celebration Town Tavern - not a chain, locally owned.

Primarily a seafood restaurant I suppose but they also have baby back ribs to kill for, if you're a fan of wet ribs. And very good fried shrimp.

Reasonably priced and they offer a 10% discount for DDE cardholders.

on the cheaper end we love sweet tomatoes for lunch too. Just off Kirkman road.

I have two places-Jungle Jim's and a sports bar that I can't remmber the name of but it isn't smokey and they have really great wings.

We went to Amigos on International during our last trip and really enjoyed it.

We love Race Rock on International Drive. We have gone during our last 3 visits to Orlando. It is perfect after a day at the park, and we will get 2 appetizers and drinks-it feeds our family of 5 for really cheap. It has a racing theme-all sorts-cars, motorcycles, trucks, etc.

Our last trip to Disney was offsite and we had the chance to discover the Orlando Ale House. It offers really great food at even better prices. We can't wait for our trip back in Dec. b/c this is a must do for us.

We would definitely have to agree. DD loves the bananas. They also have a club you can join on their website, they will email coupons (25-50% off) to you. I am negotiating with DH to go to WDW at the end of the month. I told him we could go to Texas de Brazil. I think I've almost go him convinced.

Where can we find this Texas de Brazil in the Orlando area - sounds like a place we might like, from the name.

Our vote is for Charley's Steakhouse. They have 2 locations. One near Celebration and the other on International Drive. We love the steaks there!!!! It is one of the best steaks we have ever had. They know a lot about steaks. My favorite is the 20oz Filet. It can be pricey, but is a fun indulgence for us when we can visit.

Our must do every trip is Fish Bones (not to be confused with Bonefish )
Excellent wood-fired steaks and seafood. Great service. I think it is off I-drive on Sandlake Blvd. Oh, I can taste it already
