Fodor's Expert Review Roy's Orlando

Chef Roy Yamaguchi has more or less perfected his own cuisine type, using European-style cooking techniques with Asian ingredients, primarily seafood, together with lots of imagination. The menu changes seasonally, but typical dishes include Hawaiian-style butterfish (black cod) with furikake rice, and hibachi-style grilled Atlantic salmon with Japanese citrus ponzu sauce. If your taste buds want to stay on land, go for hearty fare like grilled filet mignon with shiso Bernaise or braised short ribs with honey mustard. "Mixed plates" featuring two or three entrées are an option. The crunchy golden lobster pot stickers are a Roy's classic.
