Fodor's Expert Review Knife & Spoon

$$$$ Florida Dinner

Awarded one of the four Orlando Michelin Stars in 2022, this elegant-but-casual eatery is helmed by two-time Top Chef contestant John Tesar (you know, the mean one) and focuses on turf (prime, house-aged steaks) and surf (raw bar, local seafood). Interesting dishes include sushi-grade tuna and torched foie gras or 45-day, dry-aged, 32-ounce, bone-in rib eye (at $130). As is typical for a steak house, sides like kimchi creamed spinach or fried potatoes with caviar are extra.
