Editorial Review for Fulton's Crab House – by Mary Meehan

In Short
Situated in the heart of Downtown Disney, Fulton's is housed in a replica of a turn-of-the-century riverboat. The deck offers lovely outdoor dining--and great people-watching. Each day, Fulton's produces a special menu utilizing the freshest fish to be found around the country. Starters include a variety of tempting shellfish options, plus lobster bisque and clam chowder. Hearty entrees feature various combinations of lobster, crab, steak, shrimp and fish. Lighter lunch items include salads and sandwiches.

Insider Tips

What to Drink

The wine list at Fulton's is better than most of those found in tourist areas.

Know Before You Go

Because it's located in the tourist hub of Pleasure Island, the line during the peak tourist season gets very long.

Living in Orlando, we have been to Fulton's several times, and never have any major complaints about the food or service, but I always feel slightly silly paying the these prices, even with 10% off for season passholders. This time, the noise and table location was especially intrusive. Absolute madhouse upon arrival, jammed, hectic, noisy. Our party of six had "reservations" for 8:50 on a Friday and we were seated earlier, which was nice. Tables are too close together. Our chairs bumped the folks behind us; large folks can actually become completely trapped! The noise continued throughout our stay. Average entree is $50, including NO side dishes (which run $6-10) . With the automatic 18% gratuity, you can easily pay $90-100 per person for a basic meal with a beer. If you add appetizers, wine and dessert, you should expect $130-150 per person - and this is just NOT that level of dining experience. I had an 8oz filet Oscar. Filet was good and done as ordered. My wife had a combo of wahoo (like swordfish), crab cake and grilled shrimp. I love crabcakes, and hers was somewhat dry, and had way too much filler for my taste. The service was good, and our waitress was kind enough to point out that the gratuity was already included in the bill. Given a choice, the next time I will opt for Flying Fish at the Boardwalk. [For comparison - some of our favories Disney World restaurants are Spoodles, Kona Cafe, O'Hanas, Victoria and Albert's)

Not a good place at all. The food was served at room temperature. We ordered calamari as an appetizer and it took a 30 minutes to arrive cold. The main course arrive 30 minutes later and it was cold as well. Olive Garden and Red Lobster serve better food at a better price. This was a bummer!!! High Price not good at all.
