If you have ever walked in Universal CityWalk Orlando then you can definitely say that the Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar restaurant sticks out like a sore thumb. Not only does the name catch you off guard, but the location definitely has its perks. Located in the heart of Universal CityWalk Orlando visible from the watertaxi’s you can find this delicious restaurant.
Dive into a custom-designed burger or saddle up to some sushi. Whether you keep them separate or embrace the spirit of Burgushi®, a cutting-edge fusion of sandwiches made with sushi stuff, and sushi built with burger stuff, this unique eatery offers the best of both worlds. You can also opt for a bento box to sample a little of everything.
Did you know that there is an actual fish named the Longhorn Cowfish? It looks like fish with two long horns and really does resemble a cow and a fish. I wasn’t able to catch the one in the tank at the front of the restaurant but it’s super cute. This charismatic fish is a member of the boxfish family and is easily recognizable by its long horns that protrude from the front of its head. This fish displays a unique behavior of blowing into the sand of the sea floor to uncover buried food items such as small worms.
Did You Know? This fish can excrete a toxin to deter predators. Good thing the actual Longhorn Cowfish isn’t actually on the menu here. An array of different sushi options is available on the menu as well as fun bento boxes for the kids and adults. Their portions are huge so make sure you come hungry!

The girls opted to get the MacNCheese bento boxes which they picked french fries and a rice crispy for their sides. The boys opted to get cheeseburgers and sushi kids bento boxes with the same sides as the girls. Malik really loves sushi, so when he found out he could get his own bento box he was very excited. Each kids bento box comes with a rice crispy treat and some swordfish, as well as a fun tattoo. They loved their food and asked to come back again the next day for lunch.
As the mom of this group, I got to pick the delicious adult sized bento box with a cheeseburger and sushi. I am a true Asian cuisine lover when it comes to sushi and I must say this sushi was delicious. I’m not one to lick my sushi plate when I go out but I licked this one. The fries are hands down one of the best-seasoned fries I’ve had while eating out. The cheeseburger was slider sized but fully packed with flavor that kept this mom’s taste buds satisfied.
Hands down this was a great restaurant experience and delicious place to eat. My kids loved the bento boxes and I loved the fresh sushi. To get to the restaurant you must take an elevator to get to the 2nd floor but, the restaurant is actually 3 levels. Have you ever visited The Cowfish Sushi Burger Bar at Universal CityWalk?

Sushi always looks amazingly beautiful, but I just can’t do it. Love taking pictures of it, but don’t like the consistency of it. :/
This is an amazing venue! Love, love, love the concept and decor! Wish we had something like this in the Atlanta area.
Rebecca Swenor says
This place sounds amazing even though I never had sushi or really don’t think I would like the texture. I know my family probably would love eating there though. The aquarium in the center looks gorgeous and really does add to your experience there it seems. Thanks for sharing your experience.
