FIVE-time Florida Trend Golden Spoon Award (2015 – 19) winner, Dragonfly Robata Grill & Sushi features authentic modern Japanese gastropub cuisine.

Our diverse menu features sushi, steak, veggies, seafood, noodles, and rice dishes, but a must-try on your visit—your favorite(s) from our robatayaki (robata) grill. One of the nation’s first to use traditional robata grilling techniques & white-oak (binchōtan) charcoal, our team has perfected the art of grilling using the smokeless 1,000° heat of binchotān to unlock the natural flavors of vegetables and proteins.

A favorite of locals, conventioneers, and tourists, Dragonfly is centrally located 3 miles from the Orange County Convention Center and IDrive, 4 miles from Universal, and 5 miles from Disney. Whether you’re looking to host a private event, chef’s table dinner, enjoy a fountain-side patio or just relax in the lounge, we’ve got you covered. Join us and share in our #artfulflavors!

    I had the ribeye with mushrooms and the salmon belly sashimi. The steak is cubed and cooked on a skillet. It was tender and flavorful. The sashimi was fresh and buttery.

    this will be the last time we will visit Dragonfly after being a regular for the last ten years. The service is bad when you have to ask for soy sauce ,the food is not tasty or presented as its on the web site and finally this has happened to us the last three visit we get the worst table in the corner away from the main dining area with a reservation and the restaurant half empty.The management needs to wake up

    We had excellent meals at Dragonfly! Our favorite menu items that we ordered were: Lychee martini, Fried veggie and pork dumplings, Buttery Edamame, Smokey dragon sushi roll, and Cobra Kai sushi roll. On the raw menu, we loved the fresh Wagyu, Blue Fin Tuna, Yellowtail, and Salmon. We can’t wait to go back!!

    We booked a 9:30 reservation and showed up to doors being locked. The restaurant wasn’t supposed to close until 10 pm. We saw workers inside. So disappointed in the lack of consideration by their staff.

    Food was good our issue was with two things. First one is: We ordered an old fashion cocktail as we always do before dinner and when I tell you that it was two sips, we have never had so little of a drink! It should have been half the price of what they charged. They charged for a full drink and that’s definitely not what we got. Second issue: was the amount or dare I say lack of, when you order sushi pieces (nigiri) what arrived to the table was so absolutely small that we could not believe it, we ordered 8 pieces and truly they were good but so unbelievably small. Thank goodness we ordered the gyoza and a roll. Best to order appetizers and rolls if you go.

    Whenever my wife and I have dinner at Dragonfly Robata Grill. We are greeted with big smiles, and always have a great time. The food as usual, was excellent, we tried almost all the appetizers. Our server Michael delivered superb service , he was attentive, but not intrusive. We also had the pleasure to meet Andrew who I believe is one of the managers of the restaurant. He came to ask if we had ordered a particular dish, and then we had a nice conversation. A great service provider. Thank you all for a terrific time. We’ll see you again soon. C.Kelly

    The restaurant was also able to deal with two large groups (29 & 20 people) while not letting it impact the other customers. It typically is a moderate noise level but with that many people it was louder than usual. Continues to be my business dinner and special occasion sushi choice
