jackadapt Posted August 12, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 12, 2022 We sail out of Orlando on the Wonder of the Seas next year and will have a few days to mill around Orlando beforehand. Everything I've seen online only features deep fried gator nuggets/bites. Any restaurants that have a deeper gator menu that's not a tourist trap? If gator bites are all there is, anyone try the ones in Disney Spring at Chef Art Smiths Homecomin? We are staying near Disney, at the Hyatt Regency Cypress if that helps narrow down a restaurant list. Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diver2014 Posted August 14, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Why anyone would want to eat gator is beyond me......but the restaurants that do only offer gator bites. That's enough to turn you off on gator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted August 15, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 15, 2022 (edited) but the restaurants that do only offer gator bites. in general I agree ... most places sell gator bites or nuggets which are breaded and hard to tell from McNuggets! HOWEVER this past weekend while down in West Palm Beach visited a newish BBQ place which had Gator sausage prepared in the traditional BBQ place sausage style (wood smoked) and it was GOOD . . . https://www.eattropical.com/ just sayin' ... yep it ain't Orlando ... but there's better out there!!

Gators want to eat you, why shouldn't you want to eat the gator first! There's a restaurant chain with numerous locations around Orlando called Gator's Dockside. They serve fried gator tail.
