theme/ atmosphere restaurants?

[tdelano]

Are there any restaurants with a theme or great atmosphere other than at Disney/Universal/ Citywalk? We will be leaving the park one evening for a basketball game and really enjoy eating someplace new with atmosphere..

In all honesty? No.

Between Disney and CityWalk, they've locked up most of the best of the theme restaurants. Now that's not to say that there aren't some great Orlando restaurants. There are a lot of them around here. But if you're looking for (as Moe said on "The Simpsons") "crazy c--- on the walls", the best you'll do outside of DTD or CW is TGIFriday's, Applebee's, etc.

Well, I don't know what kind of themes you are looking for and if it is for kids or adults. If you don't have a Bahama Breeze in your city, then they are definitely worth checking out. There is the Race Rock Cafe with a big Monster Truck parked outside and all kinds of cars and such around the restaurant. There is an Italian Restaurant in the Mercado with singing waiters. Friday's has a sports bar themed restaurant, I think it is called Front Row Grill. TuTu Tango is a tapas restaurant which has an art theme if it is like the one here in Atlanta. If you are looking for something to amuse little kids the L&N Seafood Restaurant and Joe's Crab Shack have playgrounds. They are a nice break from McD's.
