My boyfriend took me to the Whisky the first time a few months ago simply because when he did a Google search for “best burgers in Orlando” this place came up. We went for lunch, and it was amazing!
I have some weird dietary allergies, and burgers are hard for me to get out because the standard fat to meat ratio in the grinding process is too high for my system to handle. Our lunch here was a surprise he planned for me, and when I looked at the menu I felt really bad because I didn’t see anything I could eat. The server was so nice trying to help me pick something out. She eventually offered to have the chef come out to better answer my questions. The chef came out, and he custom made a burger and side salad for me that was out of this world!!! Paired with a whisky, and it was the best burger I had ever had.
We have gone back a few times, and love it!!! The server was really sweet and remembers us each time we come in now. It does get busy in the evenings, and the venue is small, so get there early unless you don’t mind standing.

Everything about this place is amazing. We had the brisket sandwich and a mushroom swiss burger. By far the best burger I've ever had. The brisket was equally great. It was so tender. The beer is ice cold and the bartenders are friendly and knowledgable.
I stopped into the Whiskey at happy hour and ordered off of that menu. Had the Small Batch Whiskey Burger, medium well done, and it was an incredibly good burger in every way. The meat was moist, well-seasoned and flavorful, and everything else on it is elevated compared to other restaurants. This had smoked Gouda, arugula, tomato, smoked bacon, whiskey onions and a dill aioli. The combo was outstanding and one of the best burgers I’ve had anywhere. Obviously, they have great whiskey/bourbon and nice cocktails overall. Atmosphere is casually sophisticated and moody in a good way. Highly recommend, would repeat.
So Wiskey has an array of burgers in it, probably the best selection of whiskey in Central Florida,
small location very well situated we came early they do a happy hour. Glass of wine is
$4 dollars. I would definitely recommend it if you are a whiskey connoisseur and if you like special burgers, they do a Wagyu burger. They also do an elk burger and then do a beer burger. Those are just three we decided to go for the Wagyu burger. I really enjoyed it
Service was excellent
Awesome burgers at reasonable price coupled with awesome lineup of alcoholic beverages. Vibrant vibe, friendly staff, convenient parking, delicious food, what else can you ask for? This place became my go-to spot when I crave American food since I partially moved to Dr. Phillips.
Great place and great food. The drink selection is one of the largest I've ever seen. We had the S & S potatoes and they were delicious. (Could almost have had them for dessert!) And the small batch whiskey burger. Again, delicious and juicy! Service was great and food came out on record time. Highly recommend if you are in the area.
5 ⭐️ stars for those burgers. Food was really good. We had truffles fries, wings, burgers and tacos; all was tasty.
Unfortunately our waitress was not helpful or friendly. I thought it was me, but when we had another waitress bringing the food to our table we could see the difference.
In regards atmosphere I rated 4 because they at rock music most of time and loud. I personally don’t like that type of music.
Our new must go to restaurant while in Orlando. The burgers are so delicious!! 🤤 Staff is very pleasant and knowledgeable. 🤩 We like to enjoy an appetizer or two and split an entree or skip the app and dive into our own burger. 🍔 I had the Salty Pear burger and my husband had the Whiskey.
Loved everything about The Whiskey. One of the best burgers in Orlando. Definitely coming back again to try the other burgers and drinks! I ordered The Whiskey burger and fried pickles. The patty was thick and juicy. The buns were crispy and firm on the outside, soft on the inside. Great structure on the burger. Fries were very crispy and well seasoned.
We love the whiskey, cocktails, food, music, and service. The people that work there are great. It’s a mix of gourmet burger and drinks in a very chill atmosphere (love the metal and punk music). I wish it were closer I would visit every week.
Dropped in for a mid-afternoon late lunch. It was Monday so not super busy and we sat at the bar. The 2 bartenders were friendly and offered suggestions to help us out. Service was good and the food was prepared quickly.
We ordered 2 burgers. The Whiskey and The Shroom & Swiss, both with fries.
The Whiskey was very flavorful. Bacon was cooked just right. Tasty and everything was hot. The Gouda cheese was nice and melty.
The Shroom & Swiss was piled with cheese and mushrooms and the dill aioli added a nice flavor.
Both burgers were super juicy! The buns were fresh. They take pride in their burgers and it shows. The Whiskey is consistently mentioned as one of the top burgers in Central Florida. You won't be disappointed.
Also... the House Fries must be made with sorcery and grease blessed by the gods. They're delicious.
While burgers are the main draw as far as food, there are plenty of options. Over a dozen starters / appetizers, several sides and salads, and even some exotic game meats such as elk, camel, wild boar, and bison.
Happy Hour runs from 4 to 7 and there are several specials on the menu at reasonable prices.
There are a few TVs for sports and the left side is mostly bar seating with a shotgun-style setup flowing front to back. There's a stage in the back for live entertainment. The bar is well stocked with about every whiskey you can imagine.
This would be a fun place for a lively date night or a group of friends to meet up.
If you love the area, there are multiple great neighborhoods nearby to check out! 😎

We saw their reviews online and had to check it out. Did not disappoint! Food and drinks were great! Atmosphere was also nice and clean. Our waitress/ bartender was also very nice.
I love the concept and stopped by for their Orlando Burger Week special, The Whiskey Burger. That's a 5oz. patty, smoked gouda, applewood bacon, whiskey carmelized onions, lett., tomato with dill aoli and fries for $10.
Verdict: That's a great burger. They missed the med/rare cook on the under side, but that happens.
Free live music every night and a full Jack Daniels lineup including Sinatra to please any bourbon man.

Would go back. We loved their fried dill pickles that were homemade. Dark place but lit enough to see the menus and your surroundings. The hamburgers were great at medium rare.
Food was amazing. Got the crab fries and a burger. Enjoyed both. Everyone in our party enjoyed the food. Atmosphere was cool with a live singer.
Wow is a very hidden treasure! Service is excellent food is great one of the most delicious burgers we did in long time, very spacious and comfortable
First time eating here and boy they did not disappoint. The service and food were great, loved the atmosphere and character of the restaurant! We tried the Black Apple cocktail and their Old Fashioned, and we were impressed with both. We ordered fried pickles as an appetizer then as entrees we tried their Whiskey Burger with Truffle Fries, and their Smoked Brisket Grilled Cheese with regular fries. If you’re in the mood for a good burger this is the place. Overall it was a little pricey but well worth it in my opinion. 10/10 recommend giving this place a try!
Headed to The Whiskey on the way to Universal. It had a nice large bar area and plenty of seating.
I started with the onion rings that were tasty. Good ratio of batter to onion.
I decided on the The Salty Pear burger which was just okay. The flavor was good, but the burger didn’t seem cooked all the way through and the bun wasn’t toasted enough to hold everything together.
My friend liked his brisket burger better. It was smoky and well seasoned. All of the ingredients blended together well.
It’s still worth giving them a try.
Excellent location that's only hampered by how cramped you may feel depending on the time you go. When we went it was admittedly busy as one would expect on a Sunday evening, and a bit noisy, as we needed to shout our orders in order to be heard.
Food is amazing if not a bit pricey. Definitely not normal bar food however, expect quality food and a surprisingly diverse menu.
Also, I don't recommend kids here but hey to each their own.
The food? AMAZING. I highly recommend their bang bang shrimp, black and bleu burger and fries (which is nicely seasoned). Just wasn’t a fan of the live music too much. Either way I would come back for the food again. The waiter/bartender was also pleasant. A great massive variety of drinks as well. Almost every drink you can think of. Great experience!
