The drinks here and potent and free-flowing. An 86oz bucket of signature mixed drink will run you about $35, and its enough for two or more people for sure. The dueling piano players take request and do covers all night, keeping the party going. The lighting is mellow, searing is plentiful, and the vibe is relaxed. Its a fun way to spend a night out after a long day in the parks.

Fun place to sit back relax, request some awesome music to be played by piano. This bar is frequented by those local and out of town alike. The drinks are moderately priced and the atmosphere is welcoming for those on their first or fiftieth visit. Bring yourself or go with friends, leave happy.

I did not go here expecting much, but my friend convinced me and my wife to pay the $10 cover charge and go in. It ended up being one of my favorite times with him. It was a great place and the musicians are incredibly talented. They are all able to play piano, drums, bass, guitart and can sing! It was an incredible night and would recommend it to most people. They dont bleep out swear words.

Great atmosphere. Stephanie was awesome last night! Food was decent and filling. Music was great just need more R&B music!The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because the drinks are watered down. I drank 6 drinks and part of an 86 ounce hurricane and was not even tipsy!

Ive been to many Howl at the Moon clubs...this one is the best. Joe and Amy, and the whole music group, are awesome. Loved their renditions, especially Shallows (Lady G/Bradley C duet). Put this I-Drive establishment on your list of places to visit!

Dueling piano bars with talented musicians playing popular covers. Talented is an understatement. Most of them could play 3+ instruments (Keyboard, base guitar, drums, lead guitar). Watching the pianists multi-task jumping in and out of songs while playing rythm or the melody was interesting. The setup was great, as you could hangout near the dance floor to take in the live music / karaoke or step out near the patio for a quiter vibe to have a conversation.

My favorite bar for sure. Brandy and Brandon and rob are my favorites. Theyre on top of the game and never disappoint. Theyre like a dream team and all together they make awesome bar service. I come from Tampa just to see them. Howl at the moon, you have the ultimate dream team and hands down best employees. Weve easily been here 10 times and have never been disappointed and I thank you for that.

This was my first time here & I have to say it was very entertaining. Im glad I experienced it. I requested a song & it was played & played well. Definitely a fun place and would come again when we visit Orlando again. Our waitress was very attentive and nice.

We were in the area and decided to check this place out! We had the pleasure of meeting Brandon he was amazing. Very social and welcoming. If you’re in the area come check this spot out. We had some great shots and drinks. Ask for Brandon he’s great. It was my best friends birthday and we had a great time here.

NYE Party. Great music. I called and got a machine. It said cover was $10. We went and was charged 25. I told the doorman and he gave me the 1000 yard stare. So typical of low wage jobs. No one cares. Just saying.

Music was better some years ago... am visiting this place every year since they exist... sometimes they allow people from the crowd do karaoke.. can be good, but mostly annoying... typical spot for trade show attendees. Would recommend Tin roof at Icon Park underneath the big wheel more...

Fun place. One of the singers was a little too high pitched and they didnt seem to know some of the songs we requested but overall it was a good time.

So fun! Be sure to bring cash to make it more interesting. They will call you out, sing happy birthday, sing your fave jams, sing your favorite sports team chants. The service was speedy and funny and friendly and you can’t. Go. Wrong. With the free photo booth. We will def be back!

Was good but bouncer was on a power trip. Friends were carrying on a bit outside which might have resulted in beer being spilt.. fair enough but bouncer was quite over the top giving them into a row over it asking if they would clean it up. 5 mins later he spat on the ground.Classy

I cant say enough good things about this place!My wife won a free Happy Hour after we attended one organized by a friend.The staff was great about scheduling, and the drinks were really good!Make sure you eat before coming as happy hour only has an appetizer bar.You can order food and have it delivered, but youll be too busy singing along and enjoying the Pianos!

Good place to hang out. Only serves drinks (no food). Has a cover to get in 7 days a week typically after 8pm weekdays and weekends all day long and its $10 or up. Drinks are pricey. Beers average $7 and drinks are over $11 and up. Overall it was a ok experience.

I love this place. A favourite place in orlando. Busy bar. Two pianos. You put a request on a paper, you pay 5 10 or 20 dollars. They will write on the mirror your statement. They will sing your song. Beer is flowing constantly. Smoking available outside. Best ambiance you can find. Sometimes booked for private party so be ready to get disappointed from disallowing entrance. Still a great place. Musicians are top rated.

Not a fan. Its a bar with cover bands that you have to pay to get into. No thanks. Plenty of other places nextdoor or a few blocks away. I drive has better options.

We had our Christmas party there. Place was really nice. Will try to return for a night out

Review №52

This place is located right in the heart of International Drive. There is a cover charge combined with frequent requests for tips so a night out can get very pricey. The staff is nice and the service was incredibly fast. I was surprised to see that there was no food served but our server informed us that outside food was allowed. If you like live music and dueling pianos then this might be the place for you.

Review №64

Got charged 2 different prices for the same beer. When you ask for the manager they say you just have to ask the bartenders who have no real reason and blow you off... what a joke. Bartender Brandy will rip you off. I wish I could post my picture of the receipt but they’re definitely doing shady business.

Really fun spot for drinks, music, dancing. Our waitress was awesome. Anything goes, casual, dressy, flip flops, shorts, T-shirt’s, young, old everyone welcome, well drinking age at least. They have a photo booth setup too, the work group I was with got a picture- fun memories. They also had a hot dog stand out front when we left, smelled amazing, but we skipped due to the long line of patrons- must be good.

We had a great time at Howl at the moon. We started at the bar because the room was busy. Staff was incredibly helpful with drink suggestions. Went to a table around 9:30. Song selection was great. Good mix of classic and today standards. Good fun for all. Mix of bachelorette and group hangs. Would come back again anytime.

Review №84

Howl at the Moon seems to be a popular spot for tourists and also for those celebrating events like bachelorette parties. The staff members are generally friendly and the performers are very talented. Prices are pretty high unless you are a member of a party (which the parties are pretty easy to win). The parties are the best bang for your buck since they throw in a couple free drinks and discounted drinks until 10. They also have a buffet included which is pretty decent with items like tacos, pulled pork, and Mac and cheese.The major downside here is that it gets pretty packed and its fairly cramped with the way tables are set up. Its also very loud so its not easy to converse. The drinks are pretty average and not very strong. Its a decent enough place and worth visiting from time to time for a special occasion, but its not usually my first choice for an evening out.

Review №85

0 stars if I could possibly leave no stars.This place is honestly at the bottom of the barrel of things to do on I drive. The employees are extremely RUDE. The drinks are overpriced and 95% ice. The music is pretty terrible and you get kicked out for being the only people In the place having fun and brining life to their “entertainment” As a local I will never recommend this to anyone I know of anyone I speak to. They need to work on a lot of things and the biggest is not having TERRIBLE customer service. I can not stress this enough save your money and just go to downtown. DO NOT COME HERE!

Review №87

Went there a few months ago the place is nice drinks are pricey the reason for only 4 stars is that one of the musicians tall thin white guy dont know his name good piano player but his singing is not very good. Sounded on key but his voice didnt sound the best just my opinion

Review №89

Came out here for my friends bachelorette. Very fun time. She was made to feel special early on when another table bought her a shot. Later in the night she was brought on stage for a fun/funny song. When we first arrived, it was not the most welcoming or informative of service from the staff. I had purchased a groupon which I multiple times had to ask various staff to allow me to redeem it and they referred me to other people or said to come back later in the night. I finally later in the night was able to use it after much hassle. We asked for napkins multiple times (to get moisture on the table from drinks, and clean up where some food had spilled on the table from the earlier in the night buffet) but never could get any from the waitress. The best she would do was that she did finally wipe the table off for us. I would come back for sure and probably will, but I would keep in mind ahead of time when planning about the lack of staff hospitality and less friendliness a time or two than I would expect.

Review №94

Drove two hours down for 90’s night was told it was free cover if we dressed up which we did and we still got charged a cover. She ended up giving the money back. Bartender was rude and had an attitude for whatever reason. We ordered a bucket and it was cool. However the 90’s event HARDLY had any 90’s music. Definitely disappointed ️

My favorite bar!!! I wish there was one near home. Its fun to listen to the music played by incredibly talented people who can play numerous instruments and can play just about anything. Theres dueling pianos with drums, guitars and etc and normally about 5 musicians that switch h off to play anything you request (with a tip). Its so much fun. Definitely a place to check out.

Great take on a classic piano bar with talented musicians working individually or up to a 4 piece band. Songs range from rock and country to pop and even hip hop. Drinks are solid and service is quick. Staff is accommodating. The ability to pay for written messages on mirrors behind the performers is a neat twist. Great place for groups and events
