Nbc Orlando Review

There are so many memories to relive from The Simpsons, The Cat in the hat and Scooby Doo to modern favorites like Harry Potter. Worth a trip instead of mega-overoriced Disney parks any day. Unfortunately, their popular rides are always having problems which dampens the experience such as Hagrid's motorbike coaster and then ancient ones like Poseidon need to be replaced. Another thing that prevents a 5 star review is the souvenirs and food are overpriced. A corn dog and Duff beer are a heart wrenching $22! Avoid going during busy seasons or you won't feel like it was worth the money. Still it's MUCH cheaper than any Disney vacation.

What a fun grown up place to enjoy. All types.of food clubs and KAROKE BAR. Very family friendly. I always enjoy this place at night with friends. I would definitely recommend as you'll find anything and everything you want
This particular trip we ate at vivos Italian restaurant. Probably the best lasagna I have ever had on the East Coast.Mu firmds orders meatballs and a cheese and meat appetizers Service was exceptional. Young man named Seth from Niceville Florida was our server and did a fantastic job. What a great server. Price was equal to quality of food and service. Definitely will revisit.

Ok, went later in the day just to check it out, after 6 entry is free b4 6 26.00

Always good fun
Not too crowded given the rona bs

This is such an interesting place with all move theme decorated restaurants, shops and stalls, and the entry is totally free. Totally a must go if you don't have much time in Orlando or can't afford a ticket to enter Universal.

Great place to bring the family and have some fun. Great restaurants to pick from and some shopping. The best part of the CityWalk is the addition of Voodoo donuts. The donuts are great and some crazy concoctions. You will love this place. I have never waited in line for donuts, but I did today and it is worth every calorie. Be sure and check out the Universal store. Great place to buy souvenirs and save time in the parks riding instead of buying.

The Blue Man group show was amazing! I highly recommend this show! The music was spectacular and the blue men were so talented with an unexpected hysterical side! We loved it!

Lot of interesting shops and Vodoo Donuts were delicious.

Very nice selection of shops, resturaunts, and clubs

First time i've been since COVID... Pretty surprised how many people they allow in and how relaxed the mask rule was.

Had the best time! Dinner at Margaritaville was so good! The shark fin drinks are outstanding.

It was awesome! I got some nice frozen yogurt and some delicious Panda Express.

Lots of food options indoor and out. Kiosks galore of trinkets and other distractions.

It was so wonderful! We will visit again some day. We went to see The Lion King at the theater there.

Be prepared for a lot of walking. We had a good time. Lines where not too long but was disappointed as we stood in line for the transformer 3d ride 2 hours only for it to be closed.

great food, amazing beer and a great place to spend some time

A magical, bright, wonderful place. An absolute must.

Great area to eat and drink. Restaurants and staff were very friendly and prices were reasonable.

Universal CityWalk is a fun destination for girls night. My friends and I have eaten at Cowfish and Antojitos and had a great time at dinner, followed by shopping.

In walking distance from Loews Royal Pacific Resort and Universal s Sapphire Falls Resort.

CityWalk connects Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure theme parks.

Parking in the garage here starts at $25 USD per day.

There are Guest Services ticket windows here, as well, and a large Starbucks with a restroom nearby.

I look forward to returning to CityWalk later this month!

It's pricey, I'm continually irritated that they charge for parking... But I'm always comfortable there, I always have a great time, and everybody is always great to me and my family. I spend a whole day at City Walk, it's not just an entry to the amusement parks.

Fun place to walk around, tons of restaurants and shops to check out. It's pretty at night when everything is lit up.

Loved it that universal created this citywalk like Disney springs. Shop, walk, ear and be merry, there is something fir every age

Citywalk is a free place to eat,shop and hangout. Lots of places to eat and a good place to spend time with family. Always a crowd day and night. Place gets lit up at night.

Loved it so much fun, great food options shopping and fun stuff to do the food at the Chocolate Emporium was delicious

It was great. First time there. Can't wait to move down here for good.

Really cool bars, clubs and restaurants to say the least!

The CityWalk is a great place to visit in Orlando even if you do not have a ticket to get into any parks. There are a lot of food options, merchandise, and souvenirs to browse if you do not feel like entering any park. The view and layout is also incredibly pleasing and there are fireworks at night.

SO expensive, but a good experience overall. Although, they had my grandpa take off his belt at the security check, and had him walk through like 6 times. C'mon. That did not need to happen.

Fun place to hang out! Make sure you don t forget your wallet though

I just love the city walk. I'm glad they opened back up even on limited hours and under the CDC guidelines. It was easy to get in even with the extra measures and there really weren't many people so we got to take our tourist type photos (we are locals) without having a bunch of random people in them. Not much was open but just walking around to get out of the house was great. We felt safe and they did a great job making sure everything was constantly being cleaned.

I have been going to CityWalk since 2005 and have seen the changes it has went through over the years. Unfortunately, during the time of COVID-19, Universal has handled social distancing and mask wearing measures incredibly poorly as compared to other places like Disney Springs. There was no limit to the amount of guests let into CityWalk, no enforcement of wearing masks, and an extreme lack of social distancing. I will not be coming back to Universal anytime soon. I felt VERY unsafe and a very obvious lack of caring for COVID-19 preventative measures from Universal.

Nice place to walk around at night. Much less crowd than other downtowns.

A stunning specatcle at night. Lots of choices around for something to eat. Well worth a visit if you are in Orlando.

Love it , nice night atmosphere. Really a good place to have fun and relax with friends and family. Highly recommended.

Free parking as of 10/3, and plenty of shopping and dining options. Whopper Bar where you make your own Whopper is a fav. Views of both Universal Theme Parks, Hard Rock Hotel, and a candy factory. Take pictures at the famous Universal sign or catch live music on the water. Plenty to do and see without paying for admission into the parks.

Absolutely amazing!! Love to visit everytime. The atmosphere is always so lively and there is free parking after 6pm!!

It was a good place...but not sure why we had to pay $26 for the parking. We visited Disney springs, the parking was free all the time and we enjoyed more at Disney springs.

It's a great place to spend the evening after visiting the parks, they have different restaurants to offer the kind of food that you're looking for. We went to Bubba Gump and we enjoy our food.

Universal studios is just one of my favorite patks!

Really cool place with lots of restaurants, great variety of choice, attracks a very trendy crowd.

Nice spot doesn't get 5 star because it's pricey. Otherwise very picturesque.

Listen to my music, Spotify: Dr Vega

Tons of different eateries and places to shop on the way to Universal and worth it on it's own as a destination. New addition of Voodoo Donuts is awesome! Lots of great restaurants, lively atmosphere and plenty to see. Lots of walking but worth the trek.

New construction means fun and exciting things coming soon! Definitely check out Voodoo Doughnuts for a yummy treat!

I wasn t interested in paying for a Universal ticket so I just went to CityWalk instead. I was there yesterday and it was awesome! Lots of shops, a movie theater, restaurants and even a tattoo parlor. Best of all it s free! You definitely won t get bored. I enjoyed this more than Magic Kingdom. Will definitely be visiting again when I m back in the Orlando area.

Walked around hardly anybody around great food great picture opportunities

City Walk is a lot of fun! I could easily spend the day there exploring the shops and sampling all the delicious food. There is tons to do and see, and it has a great fun vibe.

Expected you to wear masks in the rain and humidity walking around

The people, the atmosphere, the restaurants, are all amazing!!!

Great party atmosphere at night. Love that this adult area is open later and a short walk from several onsite hotels. We had a blast every night during our stay.

We had a nice dinner at the sports bar. Very friendly atmosphere and staff

Universal City walk is a great place to enjoy your time for free :)

Great atmosphere. Has both family friendly stuff during the day and early evening then the adult night life. Typical prices you would see at a tourist destination. Had great food and great service at every restaurant.

I absolutely love Universal and the boardwalk. They have great restaurants and shopping stores.

Pretty small compared to Disney springs. But it's next to both parks so it is in great location

Really great place, food is great! Loved the chocolate factory and the Cowfish is the best! Vivo Italian was okay, nothing to write home about.

Looking for a nice night for a tourist walk and stroll

Great place for a movie with friends and family. Great place to have a bridal shower and other excitement

Great place to hanging out with your friends. There are a lot of places to eat, dance, drink and shopping. Close to Universal Studios or Island of Adventure, is a great place to finish your day.

Amazing place for dates or family hang outs. I love to bar hop here. I feel safe and the places are clean. Don t forget to ride share there and back so you can drink up and arrive alive!

Great theme park and good alternative to Disney (although we love Disney as well). Kids loved it and the Harry Potter section and rides are amazing.

While Citywalk does have a great selection of shops,bars, and restaurants they are enormously expensive for what they are. I will give them that as far a tourist nightlife goes. They can't be beaten, with 3 distinct dance clubs.

A must see!! Whether at Universal Studios or just in the area, CityWalk is a great place to vusit!! Incredibly lit up, great atmosphere, and so much fun!!!

Even with the restrictions of covid-19 my kids had fun. The prices were out of control so we just did some shopping. Wouldn't recommend the theme park for less than two days. It's not worth the money...unless you are a resident.

Great atmosphere. A bit pricey but to be expected in theme parks.

Nice place to have a fun night out, great food and lots to do.

So much to see so much to do. So many great places to eat. We had a blast just walking around and talking to the staff. Check out the Chocolate Emporium if you are in the area they have the best treats.

Amazing place. Any time, you will find a wide variety of places to eat, drink, shop and just be there. There are daily Attraction and live concerts to enjoy.

Citywalk party pass is not of much use. Otherwise good and lively place to hang out, specially on weekend nights.

Fun fun fun. Even for us oldies who love rides. Needed more accessible handicap areas for rides and restaurants. Fast passes are worth the money especially if you are only there for a few days.

This was my girlfriends first time it was very packed and we enjoyed every second of it

Saturday night stroll was great. Lots of restaurants & bars, live music too. Great atmosphere

As you reach the end of the moving walkway and descend the stairs make a hard right and you will discover the most delightful mini golf putt-putt venue with two 18-hole courses. One side is the haunted greens and the other is an alien encounter theme. I played them both and it was fabulous.

Amazing always love coming even if for a walk. To enjoy music and a few drinks.

A boardwalk of chain restaurants and your typical overpriced shops. The chocolate emporium looked fantastic. Had dinner at a sushi burger place, very nice. Sushi was great, they know how to mix a drink and the service was just fine

Enjoy the Bob Marley Club and other clubs, including Voo Doo donuts.

Nice
cool spot to grab a nice dinner

A lot to do day or night, love the different restaurants and all the lights at night, and a awesome movie theater

A great place for food and entertainment. Currently, it is being remodeled so the are less shops than normal.
