The food is always awesome! Try something different, the chicken with garlic, and pepperoni is my niece’s favorite! Tacos are very good! Fresh chips and salsa! Margaritas the best! Be sure to get there early as this place fills up fast! But if not have a pitcher of margaritas it’s worth the wait ! Always enjoy this place!

You can dine inside in elegant setting or outside which feels more casual. Attentive, friendly service. Food is generally very good. Coquilles St Jacques tasted a little burned on top. Escargot pasta very garlic. Bread for the table seemed more appropriate for an Italian restaurant. Salads are pricey compared to other items on the menu which come with a small salad or soup.

The service was great and the food was even better. There is a large menu with plenty of options for everyone. The place can be busy during peak times. Would highly recommend if you are looking for a casual place serving great sushi.

Reviewed By Seth P
My brother and I are from Virginia and travel to Cape Canaveral to see family and we first visited Oasis 3-4 years ago.
They serve shaved ice (think snow) flavored with your choice of flavor syrup which are made fresh directly by the owner weekly. My favorite is the "budder beer" which an identical copy (but better) of the drink from the Harry Potter universe "Butter Beer".
The product is excellent! Its tasty and one can get ice cream, condensed milk, and marshmallow fluff on top. However, the owner Ms. Vicky is number one! She not only works daily making/ executing the product and running the restraurant but, cares so much about the customer!
Today (8/16/17) was our last visit to oasis this summer and my aunt, brother and I were getting the usual (budder beer, half cherry/half ice cream flavor, and dreamscicle). We love chatting with Ms. Vicky but, we were on a time crunch thus, thanked her and left. We were just turning onto the main road enjoying the icies when we get a phone call. It was Ms. Vicky who said we left behind my aunts purse with credit cards! Ms. Vicky had looked up our number from our loyalty card and called us. We immediately headed back and she handed us the purse.
Wrapping up, Oasis is fresh, different shaved ice place where the staff is great and the atmosphere is chill. The owner is what makes this place special however, her friendlyness and care for the customer is the best.
Sean, Seth, and Diana will be back next summer (hopefully sooner god willing) Ms Vicky and will be praying that you get through your struggles. Thanks again!
8. Sonny's BBQ
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 488 reviews
In 1968, we were just a local BBQ joint in Gainesville, Florida. Today, we're still a local BBQ joint. We just happen to be in a few more locations. But we still do things the same way Floyd "Sonny" Tillman and his wife, Lucille, did back then. We still slow-smoke over oak for up to 12 hours at a time. We still serve generous portions. And we still believe people should be able to go out to eat and feel right at home.

My wife opted for this place for dinner on our way to Orlando. It's really a guy's sort of restaurant, despite my opting for the salad bar. Lots of patrons clad in camo. And lots of apparent heavy smokers too, based on the persistent coughing...MoreThank you for your great review! We’re glad to hear you enjoyed your dinner with your wife, and we can’t wait to see you again for your next visit.

Been to Longhorns elsewhere and been disappointed but local friends recommended this one and we had a very good meal . Prime rib especially good. White Peach Sangria one of better Sangrias out there. Big portions particularly deserts. Bread is indeed endless if you keep asking for it.
