About this restaurant

  • Great for scenic views

Boasting 360 views of Lake Buena Vista, aboard a reimagined, modern, and luxurious steamboat, the Paddlefish dining experience is unmatched in Disney Springs. Serving guests with genuine hospitality and 360 degree
waterfront views, Paddlefish has earned multiple Diners’ Choice badges for good reason.

    The ambience and service were quite good. We loved the fried green tomatoes. I will say that all 3 of the salads we ordered we drowned in dressing which was super disappointing. We did give that feedback to our server. Ask for it on the side!
