OK, it's been long enough! I need to have the FISH at FLYING FISH ((because their Filet & NY Strip are so, so good!)) .. ..
Had their CHILEAN SEA BASS and it was 1,000.00% lovely .. .. Perfectly-cooked, subtle with a sauce to die for .. ..
The left over sauce was so mind-blowing, everyone at our table of 12 passed it around with the bread to try it!
THANK YOU FLYING FISH for your patience with our tardy, large family!

Flying Fish
Pros:
The soup and bread was good, as was the service.Cons:
My husband’s steak was over cooked and I did not really like the sauce on the Seafood Pearl Pasta. However I did enjoy the seafood, but it did not enjoy me. Later that night was was sick to my stomach, and voided my entire dinner. It was obvious food poisoning and while we dine often at Disney, the Flying Fish has been crossed off our list!Reviewed by DVCSammy Review Date: 12/19/2022

Ever heard ANGELS SING after a single bite?
OK, a little flowery, but finally was able to snap a reservation after years of trying and reading glowing tributes to their NEW YORK STRIP .. ..
Eagerly ordered mine and all those reviews were not just lies, they were damn lies!
This NY STRIP may have been the best meal for eternity -->> Cooked perfectly (actually medium rare), charred to perfection, and almost didn't even need a steak knife .. .. And, that first bite .. ..
(angels singing, bells ringing)
Every bite was mouth-watering and amazingly, the very last bite was as good as the first bite! How many meals can you say that about? My mum's SCALLOPS were also delicious & beautiful but I regress .. ..
Our server CHELSEA was wonderful and must have gotten a good chuckle at how quickly I finished off the meal as she had her manager come over to say HI .. .. :)))
This single meal made the entire trip for me and I'm already looking at airfares to return here as soon as I can .. ..
ps > Not to bring $$$ into this but the NY Strip was just $56, almost half the price of what we paid @ Le Cellier and might have been one of the cheapest entrees we had the entire week and this meal was almost mind-altering!
THANKS FLYING FISH & CHELSEA!!
Pros:
Heavenly NY Strip!Cons:
Can't eat here every night because they probably wouldn't let me in every nightReviewed by tetimko5 Review Date: 02/14/2021

My husband LOVES it here and I think its pretty good. I personally think it has some of the better seafood options you can get on Disney property. It is a great place if you are planning a trip without little kids or are looking for a date night outside of the parks. Atmosphere is beautiful, service was very good, food was good.
Pros:
Good seafood, pretty restaurant, good for a fancier meal or date nightCons:
Probably not the best for kiddos, priceyReviewed by Anonymous Review Date: 06/04/2020

I liked this place more before the refurb. Feels a bit too stuffy now. Food is still good, service is great, but nothing knocks me away.

This was the best meal I’ve had property in a long time. First our server was excellent. He took the appropriate amount of time to explain the menu but wasn’t over bearing. For the appetizer, we had the pork belly. This was different than I expected, but in a good way. Instead of being crispy this was very tender like “meat butter.” It was delicious. For our entree’s I ordered the
Scallops and my wife had the waygu filet. My wife loved her filet. It was served with a truffle sauce and risotto. My scallops were served with grits and a pepper sauce. They were cooked perfectly. It was really outstanding. The desserts were also both very good. I will warn you that the cocktails are strong here. This is the first time we have dined here since the refurbishment and we had a great time.

We've been to Flying Fish several times, both pre- and post-refurb. After a disappointing dinner there right after the refurb, we thought we should give it a second chance and are we glad we did! Our wonderful evening started with our server. A former cast member from the Norway pavilion, she was charming, passionate about her job and had lovely stories to tell. She provided excellent and attentive service and her recommendations from the menu were spot-on. The food was amazing. I had the fish special of the evening and my son had the steak. Both excellent. We ate at a few signatures over the course of our trip and Flying Fish was, by far, the best. We will definitely be back!
Pros:
Amazing food, fantastic serviceCons:

I hadn’t dined at Flying Fish since the remodel, so I was long overdue for a visit. I was dining alone, checked in shortly before my 7:05 ADR time on Sunday, July 1st, and was seated at a table for 2 within minutes. My server was Izzy who had a great personality and was very knowledgeable about the menu. I ordered a glass of chardonnay, the seasonal salad and the sea bass. The wine was good, the salad was tasty and the sea bass was OK--the sauce tasted pretty much the same as what used to be served with the potato-wrapped snapper at the “old†Flying Fish and the side of leeks was similar as well. I should’ve asked that my fish be prepared more well done—my error. Overall, the meal made me wish that the old Flying Fish was still there. I was hoping to be impressed, but almost $80 later (with my Tables in Wonderland discount plus a little extra for my wonderful server), I kind of felt let down. I don’t think I’ll go back anytime soon, which is very disappointing to me—Flying Fish used to be a great “go to†spot on the Boardwalk.
