50 Best Steakhouses in Orlando

“Papa Llama, 2840 Curry Ford Road, Orlando- 4-Stars Michelin Recommended- Bib Gourmand! Peruvian immigrants, Kevin and Maria Ruiz, say they founded Papa Llama in 2016 as an experimental pop up and opened the doors of this location in August 2020. In 2022, they earned the Michelin Guide's coveted "Bib Gourmand" award for establishments that serve good food at reasonable prices so naturally, I got excited. Paulina, my server, was well prepared and knowledgeable, making for an auspicious beginning in a gorgeous environment featuring good prices for dishes that could be made to satisfy both carnivores and herbivores alike. I ordered the entire family style menu which was, according to Papa Llama, "designed to be tasted together, shared, and fought over." So much food for just over a hundred dollars. The prices may have been cheap but the taste and quality of (most) victuals valieron un Perú! A hearty Big Boy Thank You (Sulpayki!) to Kevin and Maria and the culinary dactylograms of their ancestors, on this amazing cuisine (Somaq Mihuna!). The first item on the menu was Olives--whole green Castelvetrano olives marinated in house with aji panca--which were so delectable I could eat them all day. Next, the Red + Gold Beets, a minty beet salad with honey ají amarillo vinaigrette, queso fresco, and candied pistachio, which started out smooth and creamy and ended with a pleasantly piquant bite. Papas a la Huancaína followed, a fingerling potato dish with spicy aji amarillo cream, wakatay (black mint) salsa verde, and beef chicharron, topped with a fried egg. The potatoes themselves were not the star, but the combination of flavors in the sauce were amazing, unctuous but smooth. Papa Llama carries a long list of natural wines, more wines than food items, actually. That evening, I chose the Yuzu Sake, and may I say, "Holy smokes!" How refreshing after consuming so many peppers. The rest of the dishes I would give 4.5 to 5-Stars, EXCEPT for the side of frozen Sysco French fries which almost ruined an otherwise stellar meal. There are over 300 kinds of potatoes in Peru. Over 300! Perhaps in the United States we don't have the same abundance as found in El Valle Sagrado (the Sacred Valley) but, por favor, do not stoop to this! The Big Boy says, "Eat here. All the authentic Peruvian flavors at Papa Llama are 5-Star, but skip the fries, which are a corporate conglomerate frozen food disappointment."“

“Great atmosphere and great steak!!“

“Valeria was a wonderful server. She was very attentive to special requests and food restrictions needs due to allergies. The food was excellent too. Get the trifasico and ask for all the sauces!“

“Our server Mike was phenomenal. He was very well educated in the menu items and ingredients. He sold us on the whole menu but we decided on a New York strip and filet mignon. We celebrated a birthday, and he went the extra mile to make the night special.“

“Seasons 52 never disappoints us and that is why we go back over and over. We tried the new Alaskan Butterfish on the fall menu. It melted in my mouth. Ponzu broth was good but personally, I prefer the butterfish to be cooked miso glazed and the rice under the fish to be dry. The wilted spinach in between the tower of fish and the rice was a very generous portion and the shiitake mushroom topping was just right. I will ask the broth to be on the side when I go back for this dish again!“

“My husband and I celebrated our 45th anniversary with Eddie Vs and it was amazing! The staff was courteous, helpful and professional. Our waiter Hugo and he was amazing! The food was exquisite and delicious. The ambiance was beautiful and the noise levels were very low and allowed us to have an amazing experience. We will DEFINITELY be back!“

“We had the best experience here in Terneritas! The attention was absolutely amazing and the food was delicious. Luz was our server, and she was so kind and helpful!! The best service we’ve had in a Venezuelan restaurant so far! Recommended 100%“

“The food was amazing. The staff…. Incredible. Moises, Santiago and the dude with the cool handle bar mustache. All wonderful. After a long long day of moving this is exactly what I needed. Thank you!“

“I’ve been wanting to come here for so long and we finally got in! You’re best off making a reservation or be prepared to wait 1+ hr for a table. Reservations are made by texting them, which is a little strange, but maybe it’s just part of their charm. This place has such a great vibe, was packed but not too loud, and the service was great! We both had 4 oz filets, I had the sweet potato fries and he had a side of spaghetti with meat sauce. Both entrees came with a house salad and one side. The house vinaigrette is SO yum and their homemade croutons are perfect (just wish there were more)! The steaks were cooked and seasoned to absolute perfection! The sweet potato fries were ok, they were hot but they are crinkle cut and not all of them were crispy. They come plain so if you’re looking for something to dip, I guess you have to ask. The side of spaghetti with meat sauce was underwhelming but had good flavor. I really enjoyed this first experience here and am excited to come back.“

“We’ve tried this Yard House on I-Drive three times over the past 12 months while on vacation because the location is great, but the food has let us down every visit over the past year. The staff is excellent—attentive and friendly—but the quality from the kitchen just isn’t there. Last night, our salad came out swimming in dressing, the sandwich with truffle fries had cold fries, and the pizza was also served cold. The manager did comp the salad since it was inedible, which we appreciated, but overall we left disappointed and still hungry.
We go to the Yard House near home regularly and the food is always great, so it’s frustrating that this location has been consistently below expectations. Sadly, we’ve learned this one just isn’t for us, even though we love the spot and the service.“

“I had an incredible experience at Chima Steakhouse! The service was top-notch — everyone was friendly, attentive, and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was absolutely amazing — every cut of meat was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. The salad bar was fresh and beautifully presented too. The atmosphere was elegant yet comfortable, perfect for a date night or special occasion. I've been to other Brazilian steakhouses before, but Chima truly stands out as the best. From start to finish, everything was exceptional. Highly recommend — I'll definitely be coming back!“

“Everything we ate and drank was amazing! Everyone we encountered from the moment the doors open treated us so nicely, so friendly and a wonderful atmosphere! Highly recommend it!!“

“Never been to a Longhorn before. Server Riley was very informative and very friendly. The food was fantastic. I had the French onion soup .... by far the best I have EVER had. Our steaks were full of flavor and perfectly cooked. Will definitely try it again.“

“Had a lovely evening at Outback tonight with the family! Food was really good and the service was outstanding! Jennifer was friendly, funny, and super attentive. We will be back!“

“we stumbled on Vito's while looking for a nice quiet Italian meal. What we found was an awesome fine dining restaurant. Everyone was exactly what you expect from a 5 star establishment. After valet parking and being warmly greeted by the host and hostess, we were shown our table. Great decor and background music to match. Our server explained all of our options with recommendations. our food was SUPERB. The steak was in the top three, I have ever had. I'm from Missouri, but if I lived here, this would be my GO TO PLACE. It looks like I'm posting this on Serenity's page. So any of you Veteran loving friends in the Orlando area, here is your new restaurant to try. 2 THUMBS UP, 5 STARS, GO EAT HERE, YOU EILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED. Chris and Serenity“

“Our server was Riley. He was fantastic, server assistant was Diego. The manager was Sarah and the Host was Jah, Cian, and Mattew.... Exceptional team. Highly recommend the Outback on Lake Underhill Rd Orlando“

“I was looking for a restaurant for a large group of us that was in Orlando for a convention but wanted to go out as a group on one of the nights where dinner wasn't provided. I initially made a reservation for 20 people, then added another 5 the day of the reservation. They set aside 3 large tables for us in one area and we ended up adding 2 more tables to accommodate our whole group. We had an excellent experience with great service for all of our tables! The food was delicious, the drinks were really good, and the best part for this large group was that the bills could be split at each table using the kiosks at each table. It was easy and everyone left very happy! This was perfect for our large group that ended up being 31 total!“

“Pablo Marrero was excellent in every way. He went above and beyond in EVERY aspect of our Christmas Employee Dinner. The meals were delicious and the service TOP NOTCH. Highly recommend!!!“

“My husband and I went here for my birthday last night. Every person that worked there was friendly and welcoming. They made us feel like they appreciated us choosing them for dinner. Our food was delicious and perfectly prepared. Usually my steak is cooked terribly because I need it well done. When the steak came it was huge, I just knew it would not be right. The steak was perfect! Well done, yet still not dried out! From the time we entered the door, every single worker greeted us and made me feel special.“

“We recently dined at Outbacks and loved everything. The food was exceptional as was our waiter, Edward. He helped me decide on a cocktail as I am not a drinker but he was so helpful. When we return, we will defenitly ask for Edward.“

“The food 🥘 is here in Texas the food is ready for pick up 🆙 and to share with the family and friends“

“Came for lunch by myself and ordered the beef empanadas which were delicious, love the atmosphere of this restaurant and loved my server Kara even more! She’s fantastic & passionate about her job which is what made my experience at Bahama Breeze one i won’t forget!!“

“What a delight!

The service:

The attention of the waitress, Leah, was exceptional and of quality. She was well educated, humble, and kind.

The food:

The food was delicious and fresh. All five dishes were salty and juicy.

The drinks:

The juices were perfectly done. The glasses were clean.

The price:

For five dishes I found the bill so reasonable.

The atmosphere:
I love going to a restaurant and being able to talk with my family without problems. Although the televisions were on, the volume was correct.“

“I don’t even know where to start. The food is amazing, the empanadas come hot because they fry it on the spot, not super greasy. I got a chicken empanada, it was very crispy and the chicken tasted amazing. Outside were extremely comfortable couches and chairs, inside and outside was very clean not a single spec of crumbs. The sauce is also very good especially when paired with the chicken empanadas. Maria Fernandez was our waitress, she is super nice and sweet. The interior was super nice, especially the bathrooms, the bathrooms are extremely clean, I wish I knew how to put pictures, the sink was golden, the walls were black and gold, it may not sound nice but it’s beautiful. 10/10 restaurant, recommend go, and chicken empanada with cilantro garlic sauce recommended if getting empanadas. If the owner sees this, please give Maria Fernandez a raise.“

“Food was hot fresh but a little on the salty side. No hand sopa in bathroom. The toilet had a leaking problem. Puddle was accumulating on the floor. They had no sign says floor wet. They were other customers that were louder than then music playing. But after they left it was very nice and quiet.“

“My wife and I went to Charley’s for the first time for our 20 year anniversary and they went above and beyond to make it special. The service was amazing and the food was excellent. Highly recommend!“

“I love going to Bahama Breeze! I love listening to the steel drums and getting in the Caribbean mood. Our food was absolutely delicious and our drinks too. The bartender Brittany was very welcoming and our server was wonderful. Keep doing what you're doing, we will definitely be back! “

“⸻ 10/10 Experience at the Vineland Location! I had an absolutely amazing experience at the Vineland location. The food came out quickly and was incredibly delicious—fresh, flavorful, and well-prepared. Our server, Edisson, truly went above and beyond. He made us feel like royalty with his attentiveness, kindness, and genuine passion for what he does. Even with our large group, everything was handled flawlessly and with a smile. A big shoutout to the manager as well, who was so friendly and accommodating in helping arrange everything perfectly. This visit was easily a 10/10, and I will definitely be coming back. Highly recommend!“

“The best ribeye steak I’ve ever had, extremely friendly people, and for chocolate lovers, the biggest piece of cake with ice cream for dessert including the tastiest icing on it😋“

“Delicious!! Everyone was happy with their choice. Great service! Clean restaurant! Nice staff! 5 out of 5! So happy we tried them can’t wait to go back.“

“OMG this food truck blew me away! They have this amazing picanha steak Pepito and it is to die for! The tequenos are also a must order! I always make sure to stop by. Huge shout out to the to the owner Andres, he is so attentive to his customers. #toasttoyou“

“As far as chain restaurants go, Longhorn is the absolute best for food, service and atmosphere! Sat at the bar with a long time friend I hadn't seen in a while. Bartender was friendly and quick. Ordered the spicy chicken bites and Spinach Artichoke dip. I think it's the best dip I've ever had. My friend (a former bartender) said it her margarita was the best she'd ever had at a restaurant as well.“

“LongHorn Steakhouse is a meat lover’s paradise! The cuts are cooked to perfection, juicy and full of flavor, especially the Flo’s Filet and the Outlaw Ribeye. The appetizers, such as the famous warm bread and seasoned fries, are also delicious. The atmosphere is cozy and the service is always friendly. A great option for those looking for a quality meal at fair prices. Highly recommended!“

“Very nice setting for a special dinner. Extremely helpful serving staff. We had the bone in veal parmigiana and the tagliatelle bolognese. Each could have fed 2 people! Giant portions but really perfectly done. Vegetable extras also enough for 2. It was hard to take home large leftovers since we were staying in the hotel.“

“Thank You, Texas Roadhouse Orlando airport Semoran for making my birthday so fun.Great staff, yummy cocktails, delicious, generous portions, and complimentary birthday song and dessert.Thank you for supporting BASE camp children cancer and local children's baseball. awesomeness 👌“

“Enjoyed my experience all times I've gone ! Service is nice and friendly. Food is delicious ! And drinks (including alcohol free) are amazing !“

“We went last night off of a recommendation from a friend. It was a pleasant surprise to find this restaurant and we have added it to our favorites list. The staff was excellent, starting with the complimentary valet. The upscale atmosphere is beautiful with interesting art and light installations. We had a party of five. We started with a variety of appetizers and every one of them was excellent: Smoked Wagyu Pastrami, Spicy Wild Caught Shrimp, Josper Grilled Octopus, Pan Seared Foie Gras Jewels. The foie gras was so good that I ordered a second plate to eat with dinner. For dinner we ordered the Pappardelle, two Chateau Filets, Lamb Chops, grilled broccolini and truffle mashed potatoes. We loved the table side presentation of the pappardelle being mixed on the giant Parmesan wheel and the chateau filets being seared to perfection as they were being plated. We had a bottle of wine with dinner and had one person order an Americana and one Turkish coffee, in addition to tea and soft drinks. The service was excellent and the food was some of the best we've ever had. Our bill (with 18% gratuity built in + additional 7% because it was so good), came to $929. Impressive, upscale dining with excellent food and service.“

“Table of 8-10 next to us was abusing the waitstaff. The manager knew what was going on, but did nothing to help protect the staff. The interactions with the large table prevented other guests from getting the service they deserved and took away from the whole guest experience.“

“Server was Carla she was very attentive and a very comforting smile. The steaks were perfect. We wanted to know the cooks work schedule so we could come while he's on duty. All in all a wonderful experience. Minus one star for some minor things not worth mentioning“

“Melissa is an amazing manager, the whole staff was on point , and ready to meet my families needs (we were a party of over 20) thank you Maggie , Lexis, Gabe, And cyndi as well. You are very lucky to have this team, and Melissa’s leasfership!! 5 stars is not enough!“

“The salmon was great and the brussel sprouts were a pleasant surprise for someone who needs convincing to eat most vegetables and never ate brussel sprouts before. They were steeped in a delicious sauce. I liked the asparagus too. Service was great!“

“Mia was exceptional, she has a wonderful personality. She is the epitome of what great customer service is.“

“Outstanding Mother’s Day Dinner – Lake Nona Location Delivered!

We dined at LongHorn in Lake Nona for Mother’s Day, and it was an excellent experience from start to finish. Our group of five ordered a variety of dishes—ribeye, T-bone, ribs and chicken combo, a hamburger, and the chicken and spinach dip appetizers. Every dish came out hot, fresh, and perfectly cooked. The mac and cheese was creamy and flavorful.

Service was friendly and attentive, even with the holiday crowd. Plates were cleared promptly, refills came without asking, and everything ran smoothly. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming—perfect for a special family celebration.

We left feeling satisfied and appreciated. It's definitely one of the best LongHorn locations we've been to.“

“Friendly, great atmosphere.“

“Always excellent food and service!“

“Located inside Dark Universe. I don’t understand why this place gets such low reviews because honestly, the food here is some of the best I’ve had in a theme park. The salmon was delicious and cooked to perfection, and the pork belly with BBQ sauce and mashed potatoes was amazing. The fries were well-seasoned and flavorful. For dessert, the Labotocotta Greek yogurt vanilla panna cotta brain with raspberry sauce was super tasty!!!“

“My all time favorite steakhouse in Orlando !! The service was phenomenal and the food as always is 12/10 perfection. Been here so many times small parties and large it’s 1st class every-time hands down. Hahah too funny it’s so amazing when I see people leave a bad review and list the experience on here it’s 90% can see want free hand outs. Talking about the most asinine and Manute issues and blowin them up to get % off lol. Bums !! This place has been my go to for 15yrs maybe and never done me wrong !! Always leave feeling meat drunk with healthy sleep night after ha.“

“The best Cobb Salad found in a steakhouse!
The steak was very good too, done medium rare to perfection. Paired with a bottle of Duck Horn Merlot. Rebekah our server sourced for a decanter to help the wine breathe. She was totally professional and personable. A great night with our grown up kids.“

“staff & food were great, last night we had a couple of lovely juicy ribeyes cooked just how we like them. chips were lush & a massive salad with hot crusty rolls to start. We were to full for a dessert. Our server Guy was very helpful & attentive throughout & a little witty too 😀“

“If you want everything to be perfect, this is the place.“
