Best Oysters in Orlando
by AVFoodie
I live in NY and FL, I have been going to Lee & Rick's for ten years now and the Oysters have always been fantastic. They have cooked foods like crab and shrimp for the faint of heart, but the Oysters are the star. There are many types of Oysters in the world and I have had unbelievable meals around the world. When in Orlando Lee & Ricks is a must do if you love food as the locals eat it.
- Pros: Great place to bring a friend and enjoy a simple meal.
- Cons: Not enough seating at the Oyster Bar.

Not my favorite.
by Harrybeldonga
Quite a well known place for oysters. Been around for ever it seems. I wasn't over impressed to be honest. The oysters were kinda average and the staff were not really that friendly. I preferred the Thirsty Gator on Goldenrod Winter Park.
- Pros: not many. Wouldn't go back
- Cons: not great oysters
