We sampled a bunch of things off the Izakaya menu listed above, and our favorites were easily the “made-to-order” items – sushi & poké. It was so nice to be able to build our own dishes with what we love! We were also fans of the gyoza (who isn’t?) and crispy shrimp specials. The chicken katsudon, with a perfectly poached egg ready to be stirred in, was a classic done right. We really enjoyed the hand roll station as well: lots of options, rolled up right in front of you with yummy sushi rice and thin nori. The salmon was fresh & tender, along with multiple taste whitefish options.

The word of the new Izakaya brunch has clearly gotten out since its debut on June 3. Dragonfly Robata was bustling at noon on the Sunday we visited, and the service remained on point throughout. Unlimited Izakaya Lunch takes place every Sunday from 11AM-2:30PM. Reservations are required, so call in advance at (407) 370-3359! Lunch is $39.00 per person for adults, and $19 per person for children ages 5-12. Kids 5 and under eat free.
Dragonfly Robata is located at 7972 Via Dellagio Way, Orlando.
