One of the better oyster locations in Orlando, offering a nice selection and served clean. The bar area offers great food specials for happy hour (5-7). Gets pretty crowded due to limited bar area space, but if you can get a spot its worth it. Pretty expensive for the seafood on the main menu in the dining room, but all... More

If you want to go and have seafood in a perfectly nice, casual environment and have some great service then you can't go wrong with Big Fin. The location is nice since it is on the newer development on Via Dellagio Way at the end of West Sand Lake Road. Free valet parking and a quick and easy place to... More

We have been to Big Fin before, but it has been several months ago. My husband and I decided visit again last Friday for dinner. Since the weather was nice we sat at a high-top table on the outside patio overlooking the large retention pond. We decided to order appetizers instead of an entree and we weren't disappointed. Our picks... More

Grouper topped with blue crab was succulent. Incredible taste and would recommend highly. Seared ahi Tuna was also delicious. It was perfectly complimented with pearl pasta. Would dine there again in a heartbeat. More

If you're staying at the JW / Ritz Grande Lakes, the concierge might recommend this to you. Skip the cab fare and the cab ride (15+ minutes) and head to Norman's at the Ritz instead - better food there and it will cost you about the same, after that cab ride. The cocktails were a little watery, there are screaming... More

Happy hour is every day from 5-7. The appetizers then are plate sized. We enjoyed 4 (small 3-oz) lobster tails, a large plate of calimari, some delish beef satay, two bar drinks all for $70. No better seafood anywhere, we will definitely be going back for more. Highly recommended! More

We went here specifically to try Stone Crab and also to get away from the Disney property restaurants. The service was excellent and the Stone Crab was to die for. It is on the expensive side but was worth the splurge. More

We had a wonderful birthday meal at the Big Fin Seafood Kitchen this past week. We canceled a reservation at a Disney property restaurant we love due to having a budget of less than $100 for a special birthday meal and wanted to make the most of it. This sent me on a mission to find a well reviewed seafood... More

Great service from everyone - valet, hostess, manager and server. At the end of our meal, the owner came over and chatted. The meal was very good. Server's recommendations were spot on. I found it slightly on the expensive side. More

We were seated promptly after handing our car over to the complimentary valet parking. The area was crowded and it was nice not having to find a parking spot. A pleasant server arrived shortly and we ordered a glasess of wine. It took about 10 minutes for the wine to show up but after that the service was very good... More
