MY favourite place is Texas de Brazil, pricey but fabulous meats and service. Caters to the grown up brigade and quite posh!
Mannys is good and can recommend the Filet with blue cheese but there are better steaks out there as it is more home cooked type of meals. Mind you we visit each trip as it is only 15-20 minutes from the villa, so they must be doing something right!
Outback is on our list of places not to go after two badly cooked steaks, we only went back on the second ocassion as friends wanted to go.

Black Angus on the 192 West
and Norbys in Lake Wales

Gotta be Yachtsman Steakhouse for its wonderful service and food.Ian
Got to be the Outback, then Norby's. Oh and the Black Angus, and it's got to be ribeye done medium rare:tounge: :tounge:

Black Angus is our favourite bar but always thought it quite expensive and not that exciting a menu. Our favourite is the Outback at Clearwater Beach, always add on a lobster tail for around $2 which is nothing.

Key W Kool on the 192. Looking forward to trying Texas de Brazil for the first time though!

My fav was always Daryls on IDrive but last year it had gone and is now a mexican:(
Best steak for me was at Charlies, last year I went to The Butchers Shop and it was lovely too but $500 for a family of four:omg: :tounge:
If anyone can commend a "fairly" decent restaurant with more normal prices for everyday meals i would appreciate it, I normally expect to spend about $100 for two peeps. Someone mentioned one on Sandlake, please could you give me a bit more ddeetail on thatone, I will be staying at The Wyndham OR

Think the prices at ruths chris are about the same as the outback, roughly $20 for a top quality 12oz filet mignion. They also do a kids menu which isnt advertised on their website (i emailed them last week and asked) for $12.95 the kids get a choice of either baby fillet, grilled salmon or grilled chicken breast with choice of potato's salad and veg, a drink and a mini tub of hagen daz ice cream is also included in the price which i thought was very reasonable. Ruths chris is a place that the locals go and always comes out rated highly on trip advisor and the orlando dining guide :) I will be sure to let you all know what it was like when I get back!

I'm sure you will love Le Cellier, its my favourite restaurant in the whole world....you must have the beef and barley soup for starters, and then 14 oz New York Strip Steak with Yukon Potatoes and Veal Demi Glace (which is a little gravy sauce made with the juices that the steak is cooked in....mmmm!). I want it NOW!! Lol! :d:

I don`t mean to sound thick but what are Yukon potates? :confused2 Are they a particular type of potato? Also, the sauce sounds gorgeous but it has the word "veal" in it. I`m totally against eating veal so does the sauce have anything to do with veal or is it just a fancy name they have given it? Thanks.

I would like to know about the veal reference too fiona, I have only ever tried it once and hated it, literally had to run to the loo with a napkin over my mouth. I was worried that the steak would be served with a slice of veal on top and red wine reduction or something similar. I am hoping its just a posh word for steak sauce!
Mel2607
16 Mar 06, 05:45 PM
Lol, its just a posh word for the sauce.....it really is gorgeous. Yukon Potatoes are like the little potatoes with skin on. It really is a sexy meal!! I'd love to marry the chef so I could have it every day! The food that is ;)
Thanks Mel. We`ll have to give it a go, it sounds delicious. :-)

We`ve passed this place loads of times and have always wondered what it is like. Am I thinking of the right one though? The one I am thinking of is built underneath an adventure golf place. Could be Hawaiian Golf, but not 100% sure.

We had a wonderful and romantic steak meal at The Butchers Shop at the Mercado last October. Huge portions and, yes, it wasn't cheap, but, I thought it was well worth the money. :)

Key W Kool and Outback.
Key W Kool was pretty expensive for 5 of us though.

Another vote for Black Angus, its very reasonable and great. Its a place you could eat out at every night without over spending. I do fancy the Ruth Chris place and Charley's too.
best steak - longhorn
best ribs - black angus

I love the steaks at:
Hard Rock Cafe
Chillis (the one with the sticky bbq sauce :tounge: )
Roadhouse Steakhouse (in Kissimmee). Served with grilled shrimp!
All served with loaded mashed potato of course!!
Yes that's the one.
Thanks. :) We`ll have to give this one a try.

We loved the Black Angus, we had a wonderful waitress (Barb) who made sure she served us everytime we went in, and told us the cheapest ways to do things bless her.

I find Key W Kools to be most consistently best. I love the filet mignon.
This place converted my wife to a steak eater, she wouldn't touch it til we ate there.
Last year i also tried Ruths which was excellent but pricey,Charlys again excellent but pricey, Houlihans further down the 192 (the new one) which was also good, Mannys was simple but good, magic mining and black angus which were both average and the outback on the 192 (Formosa) which was awful.
I'm luck enough to be going back in June and will be back at Kools atleast twice. Houlihans,Mannys will get a visit each and i'm thinking of trying Texas de Brazil.
Does anyone know of any others that are really good that i need to try, whose holding out and keeping there favourite quiet.
:D

My two DSs also enjoyed this place as the youngest could have a small steak too and they loved the chocolate stampede for dessert!

Darryls was are favourite on 192 it was by the old wild bills dinner show. Both have disappeared :tounge: Norbys at lake Wales was also excellent. Tony romas is also very good.
We are going to the outback this time:tounge:

We went to the black angus for brekfast and it wasnt that good. There was a very limited selection and it was very dark inside, it was not very busy!!!
PLEASE END THIS THREAD NOW!!!!, Its over a year till our next planned trip and im drooling like a cat in a fish shop, Its not fair people!
I used to rate Wild Jacks for a good steak, but our last visit was a real let down. We are not in a rush to go back.
