    As always, a great dinner and experience with 4 of our good friends. Chef makes some of the best soups I have ever tasted! Halibut was cooked perfectly as were the steaks the other 5 people in my party ordered. Our server was great, very attentive but not intrusive! All in all, another great evening at The Spott!

    Fantastic tasting and presented food with extremely fresh fish dinners, coupled with outstanding sides. We were delighted by a terrific team of servers. Owners also engaged in conversation presenting The Spot as a warm and friendly restaurant that was perfect for our Brother’s Weekend kick off dinner. Highly recommended by a friend in Orlando and now I know why. BTW…upstairs definitely worth a peak. Cheers!

    We did not stay & eat on this visit. We have loved this restaurant since they opened because we could get a high-quality meal at a reasonable price AND keep up with the evening's football or baseball, etc., game at the same time. It was our idea of the perfect "sports bar" because of the fine dining and the game. They have apparently changed their format and no longer have televisions showing sports events. We were hoping to see the UCF-UF game and one of us felt seeing the game was more important than a fine dinner. However, even without the sports in the background it is still very noisy in the restaurant. Hope to return after the season ends. Food has always been excellent.

    Without question, this is the best restaurant for steak and seafood in this area. I highly recommend "The Spott" for your next dining experience. They do not play around when it comes to fresh seafood and prime beef prepared by a true Chef. Gordon Ramsay would fit right in. We had dinner there last night, and once again were not disappointed. The personalized service was fantastic, the appetizer's were delicious, and the entrée's were spectacular. This place may not fall in line with the budget of some, but I believe it is well worth the price. We joined together for three Birthday's this one evening, and could not think a better place to have a wonderful dinner and celebrate. Thanks so much to the entire staff for your hard work and making this such an enjoyable evening for all of us.

    Service was impeccable. The people are wonderful and the vibe is energetic and friendly. My specific concerns: I had my 80-year-old parents in tow, so maybe I'm not being fair about the noise level. But a serious response -- the grilled caesar salad was very saucy and wet. Not my cup of tea. Everything else is a full send and I hope that you read this and go there.
