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!

What is the point of using Open Table for a reservation if they will make you wait 20 minutes anyway after you get there. They sincerely did not put in their best effort in terms of service. Food was typical of this type of Asian cuisine but was sorely lacking in real substance. Plus the prices were much higher than the quality of the food. We ordered 6 plates and only one I considered delicious everything else including the sushi was just "Meh". The waitress let it be know that the chef was this Mexican guy trying to appeal to the fact that we were Hispanic but all that did was make me question the authenticity of the food it self. Way too expensive for the quality and definitely overrated.

This was hands down one of the best experiences at Dragonfly. Don’t get me wrong- food and service has always been good, but tonight it was exceptional. Our server Cynthia was as sweet as could be and she was running her butt off. It was very busy. But our meal and the sushi was so fresh. It melted in our mouths like butter. We even expressed our wonderful experience to the manager James, who was very grateful we did. We will be going here even more often.

Stunningly fresh nigiri. The omakase sampler was excellent with each item having a complementary garnish. Miso soup was textbook good. Robata shrimp and shishito were both very tasty.

Hadn't been out for sushi in ages. It was fabulous. The seaweed salad and vegetable gyoza were excellent. We also shared some nigiri and a specialty roll. All fresh and delicious. The service was great as well. My only complaint is that many of the specialty rolls have fake "krab" in them, with an upcharge for the real deal. I've never met anyone who likes the fake stuff, so maybe it would be nice to see less menu items with it. Other than that, great experience.

Food was good. Service fair. Our table was awful. Between the bathroom doors constantly banging and also near the kitchen entrance , where u constantly heard “corner” from the servers. The atmosphere suffered making the experience less than it could have been.

It's a little pricey at around $15-25 per plate, but it's not without justification. There are some really incredible flavor pairings and sauces, unique grilled dishes cooked over imported Japanese Robata charcoal, and a respectable selection of nagiri, sashimi and house rolls. If you're a fan of mushrooms, don't miss the fried Maitaki plate! Suggest going with a party of 4 or more so you can share several dishes.

Business Dinner. Food and Sushi was good. Service was good and attentive. My only knock would be that this being a business dinner, lots of family with small children and a pretty lax dress code. I know i'm not from Florida and the Orlando area- I'm guessing this is normal.

Sent to a room in the back with no restaurant experience. Could have been in a room anywhere as nothing representative of the restaurant on show Ordered Miso Soup which tasted like a pot of salt had been dropped in it. Told that it had been simmering for too long and was not offered fresh The wine list was apparently out of date so we could not get the chosen wine The Cod in Miso overcooked and sparse for $29 Left hungry and disappointed

We have been frequent diners at Dragonfly and enjoy eating outside on the patio. The food tastes fresh and well prepared and cocktails are enjoyable. Service is perfect. Our only complaint is that the music was so loud that it inhibited conversation. One of the main reasons for dining out is to be able to enjoy the social aspect of exchanging thoughts and ideas. This really was a challenge and adversely affected our experience.

Service could’ve been way better, our waiter never refilled our waters, even after visiting the table to ask if we were ok. We ordered sushi & apparently one order was lost, after reminding the waiter twice about it, we finally received it 45 min later.
