Good seafood restaurant around Universal

[knighthammer]

My wife & I really enjoyed the Alaskan King Crab Legs & Claws at Fulton's Crab House in Downtown Disney. Are there any good choices at Universal?

Yes there is Lombards (sp?) at the main Universal park, its really nice, on kind of a dock over the pond, similar to a seafood restaurant you would find in a harbor or something. Its a nice sit down seafood restaurant.

Bubba gumps is a seafood place, but I've heard it has had mixed reviews, and I've never been to that one myself, I've heard its much more casual, lots of fried food, which I don't do fried seafood.

Several of the restaurants have plenty of seafood on the menu as well. Mythos has had some GREAT scallops, last one I did was their risotto for the day or something. And I'm going off memory but I'm pretty sure both Emerils restaurants have some seafood on the menu, but not 100% sure. I know I'm missing quite a few things as well, I know several of the other restaurants, particularly in the hotels have seafood on the menu. I want to say that Jake's American bar even has some seafood on the menu, that's a great place IMO too. And it seems like I'm missing another seafood restaurant outright.

We really loved the seafood at the Hard Rock Hotel, especially at the Palm. If you aren't going to be near the hotels, here is a link to the menus at many of the USO/IOA restaurants. I haven't tried the seafood at these, but I've heard that most of the table service restaurants at Universal are really good.

Hope this helps!

As much as I love Univeral Restaurants, for good seafood I suggest driving 5 minutes to fishbones http://www.talkofthetownrestaurants.com/fishbones_orlando.html

Fishbones is excellent. Moonfish, also located very nearby, is another DIVINE seafood place. They're part of the Talk of the Town group, so if you follow sha_lyn's link, you can find Moonfish.
