Congratulations to Boston’s Fish House, and, as promised, my review in the next post. However, this time at least, I disagree with the readers. Boston's is a great fried seafood pick, but the absolute best fish and chips in Orlando is at, well, let's just allow Boston's to bask in the glory of their victory for a little bit longer. My pick soon...

I don't mind the weird ordering-first setup (keeps me from ordering dessert, true) because I remember what it was like at the "old" Boston's location further down Aloma 20 years ago... In that little shack that was 1/4 the size of the present place but same amount of people.
