Some celebrations feel like gentle waves, and others arrive with a splash.

We are thrilled, grateful, and full of energy as we raise a toast to everyone who helped make this achievement possible.

Orlando Dining Awards 2025 - Readers’ Choice

A Coastal Dream With a Soundtrack

From the beginning our goal was simple. We wanted The Wharf to be a place where guests could enjoy the warmth of coastal dining mixed with the excitement of live music. A place where great meals, good friends, and unforgettable nights come together. Being recognized as one of Orlando’s top restaurants for live music tells us that this dream is sailing strong, supported by the people who visit us, cheer for us, and choose us as one of their favorite places to gather.

Thank You to the Readers Who Voted

This award means so much because it comes directly from the community. It comes from the readers who took the time to cast a vote. It comes from our regulars who cheer us on and our first time guests who experience something special the moment they walk in. Your support lifts our sails. Your enthusiasm fuels our momentum. Your votes filled our docks with excitement and helped us reach this incredible milestone. Thank you for believing in The Wharf and for celebrating this journey with us.

Live Music That Keeps the Night Flowing

At The Wharf music is part of our heartbeat. Every performance brings something different, from smooth acoustic sets carried across the dining room to lively bands that inspire the whole crowd to move. Our musicians create an atmosphere filled with energy, connection, and joy. Guests often tell us that the music makes their night feel complete. Hearing that reminds us how powerful these moments are. This recognition belongs to every artist who steps onto our stage and every guest who claps, sings along, or simply soaks in the sound.

Coastal Inspired Flavors That Bring People Together

While the music guides the experience, our food anchors it. The Wharf menu is built on dishes that capture the warmth and comfort of coastal dining. From seafood favorites to hearty classics our plates are crafted with care. We love hearing guests say a dish reminded them of a sunny shoreline or a favorite memory on the water. When you share those moments with us we know we are fulfilling our purpose. This Top 3 recognition reflects both the meals we serve and the memories created around them.

A Round of Applause for Our Crew

Behind every successful night is a team that gives its all. Our chefs, servers, bartenders, managers, and support staff bring life to The Wharf through their dedication and passion. Their hard work gives each evening its rhythm and helps shape the experience that guests return for time and time again. This win is a tribute to their commitment and the heart they pour into every detail. We are incredibly proud of our Wharf family.

Charting the Next Course

This recognition is a moment worth celebrating, but it is also a launch point for what comes next. We are excited to continue growing and creating even more for our guests to enjoy. You can look forward to more live performances, high energy dueling pianos nights, unforgettable tribute concerts, more coastal inspired dishes, more opportunities to connect, and more evenings filled with laughter and great company. The Wharf is always evolving, and we cannot wait for you to experience everything that is on the horizon.

A Final Wave of Gratitude

To the readers of Orlando Magazine, to our guests, to our supporters, and to everyone who helped The Wharf become a Top 3 Best of Orlando Live Music Restaurant, thank you. You helped us reach this moment. You helped us shine. You helped us grow into a place where the tides meet tunes and every evening brings something memorable.

Here’s to many more nights on the water, many more melodies in the air, and many more meals enjoyed together. The Wharf is honored to be part of your story, and we cannot wait to welcome you back for the next chapter.

Thank you, Orlando. You made this wave worth riding.
