    Chocolate Torte
    Scott T.

    So was in Orlando for the SFA Spacepower Conference and stayed at the Rosen Plaza in Orlando. We would wind up eating at the lounge two straight nights and grabbing dinner there at the restaurant. The first night we just sampled several appetizers - shrimp cocktail, calamari, and ahi tuna. The shrimp was grilled and was just ok. The calamari was great and we enjoyed it. Tender and crisp with nice dunking sauces. The tuna was the surprise with the cracked black pepper. I haven't had it that way before but definitely would try it again. On the second night we both ordered the crab cakes and they were definitely well cooked and loved the flavor. The staff was exceptional and we wound up also trying a few after dinner drinks. Really loved the Nuts and Berries and even cloned it last night here at the house! The final night we went for dinner. We each tried the Surf and Turf special. My 8 oz filet was perfectly cooked - I ordered Medium and it turned out fantastic. Loved the crisp string onions and the meat was tender and tasted great. The filet sat on a bed of scalloped potatoes and they were also delicious. Butter and cheese made them even better. The surf was a lobster tail. Unfortunately, mine was overcooked and was so soft it just fell apart. Yasir was our server and he was great. Friendly for start to finish and always made great recommendations. The Chocolate Torte was outstanding and we split it as we were so full from dinner. Overall, Jack's was an up and down experience. The restaurant itself was an experience and the caricatures on the wall of famous people were a lot of fun to look at and it was much quieter than the lounge!

    We hosted a business dinner here and the food, staff, and ambiance were all lovely. They printed prix fixe menus with our company logo. I had the filet mignon with au gratin potatoes and it was delicious. The highlight for me, though, was the key lime pie! Hands down the most delicious key lime I've ever had. The wait staff were friendly and attentive. The lighting and decor provided an elegant yet relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended!

    We saw the amazing photos and advertisements surrounding Jack's place and Bite30 so we knew it had to be one of the places we tried this month. I was able to get a reservation with just a couple days notice and when I accidentally made the reservation for the wrong day the young lady who answered the phone was so helpful to move our reservation one more day. We arrived on time and were seated immediately. Jack's Place is located inside of one of the Rosen hotels which we didn't realize until we were on our way. It was easy to find once we got inside though. We were seated and we each ordered one of their beers that is made specifically for Jack's. We obviously did the Bite30 menu, both of us getting the crab cake as an appt, I got the tomahawk pork chop & my SO got the filet for entrees. I got the flourless chocolate cake for dessert and he got the key lime pie. My food was great, my SO had to send back his steak because it was over cooked. He ordered it med-rare and it was more medium done. My pork chop was delicious and so were the crab cake and chocolate cake. Service was a little slow though, there were multiple periods where we were just sitting and waiting, looking for our server, wondering where he was. Overall Jack's Place was good but I'm not sure that it lived up to the hype!

    We drove almost an hour to this restaurant to try magical dining for the first time, as well as try this restaurant. We did research before and saw some reviews with what is now my same experience. Upon arrival, you have the option to either pay $15 for valet parking (located at the front entrance of the hotel) or self park (located to the left when you pull in. We had to pull around twice for self parking because when you pull up to the gate there is no option to pick for "just restaurant", so you would have to pay up to $25 just for parking...luckily once we pulled around the second time because we were so confused, a kind gentlemen was working the parking lot gate so we were able to explain to him that we were just going to the restaurant; so he let us right in without having to pay for parking. We arrived about 10 minutes prior to our reservation time and was seated about 5 minutes prior to checking in for our reservation. (Make sure to ask for the magical dining menu when you have checked in at the hostess desk) Once seated we were served water immediately, and our server for the night introduced herself just minutes after sitting down. Our server was Sophia, she was very kind and made us feel very comfortable. She answered any questions we had and checked in often (but not too often). My boyfriend had the "Manhattan Clam Chowder" and I had the "Chilled West Indies Salad" for our first course. The clam chowder was great, full of flavor and was very light! The salad was honestly amazing. So fresh, so flavorful, so light but satisfying! Everything blended nicely together complimented one another. I had never had a salad like this before, and has now made me more open to trying something like this, I loved it! For our second course we both had the "Filet Mignon 6oz" (his cooked medium, and mine cooked medium rare). Here is where things started to take a turn for the worst. My boyfriend's steak was delicious and cooked to perfection. However, my steak, though was cooked seemingly correct, was not good quality. There was a sour, metallic after taste to every.single.bite.... the most shameful part of this, on my end, is the fact that I couldn't truly accept this until almost half the steak was eaten. I thought maybe I am just imagining things, or maybe it's been too long since eating a filet. But after consuming so many bites the after taste became overwhelming and nauseating. That's when I had to confirm with my boyfriend, who, with one bite had to spit out the piece and couldn't stomach it. I felt so embarrassed and disgusted that I had eaten this steak. After this, I smelled the steak too as I began investigating whether or not I have just eaten a spoiled cut of steak, and it too had that awful smell that was similar to what I was tasting. I am not one to complain regularly. I was taught to eat what was on my plate and never complain but this was far too worrisome a situation that I had to speak up. The manager, Stephanie, came over to ask how everything was going and this is when I took my opportunity. We tried our best to explain that this steak had something very wrong with it, and that it felt unsafe to consume. Stephanie was very kind and understanding of this. She was also very accommodating to our situation. She offered us many replacements and options, which I was not expecting, but at that point I could hardly think about eating. Stephanie kindly took care of us though. Our server Sophia also came over afterwards and expressed her apologies for my meal's quality. The desserts were good as well. My boyfriend had the "Chocolate Mousse" and I the "Jack's Key Lime Pie". You can never go wrong with either of these, and they were delicious as can be expected. Though the initial experience starting out was good, the situation with the steak kind of ruined the rest of the experience for me as I was then too concerned if I might've just given myself food poisoning. One of the only things that really helped this experience was the wonderful, amazing, and very talented Ron!!! Ronald Weber is the caricature artist there. He came over and offered to draw us, which we were so excited about. He needs to take a picture of you in order to do this, so be prepared for that. He came back, quite quickly might I add, with the most AMAZING finished product. I will be framing this! Ron was truly so kind and you could feel his positive energy and happiness radiating off of him. I truly hope this guy is recognized for his work. Ron immediately helped cheer me up after such an unfortunate experience with this, and we will cherish this art forever! Majority of my stars are for Ron, our server Sophia, and the manager Stephanie. Those three made our experience the most positive. The staff is caring and attentive, and the restaurant is clean with a unique, intimate theme. However, the food quality doesn't match the prices or the polished presentation--I could likely find better value elsewhere

    File mignon (went from hell to heaven, read full review of the nightmare)
    Victor B.

    I was so excited about this place, we went for the first time to have dinner. It's inside the hotel, he's a complementary parking or paid vallet. We had reservation but restaurant wasn't full. We just ordered some soda and beer, they brought an complementary bread with a really good kind of pesto sauce(amazing) After 15 minutes still waiting for beers, and as soon our appetizer arrived I just asked to cancel the beer's as I like to enjoy before the meal. We had the crab cake that was amazing, I could eat every single day in my life The onion soup was horrible, tasted like canned onion soup with cheese. We asked about the bread, if we could order more (not because of the bread, but because we still had that amzzing amazing sauce) the waiter told us that would be charged 10 bucks for one tray of small bread, we were in 4, just received one to split, but for 10 bucks I declined, it's not about the price, but the bread isn't worth, wasn't a good bread not worth even 3 bucks. But the nightmare happened with our main dish, our file took more than 1 hour and 20 minutes, they blamed my wife saying that she asked well done and that was the cause of the delay. Cmon wouldn't take more than 10 min max to do that, and at that time our 3 years old started being bored... After all the delay our dishs arrived, wife's was OK, my friend (Medium) was OK but mine Medium was WAY overcooked. I cut in the middle and showed that they overcooked a lot, wasn't even red... Só I waited about 25 minutes and they brought a new file (but looked like they used the same sides that were in the plate before. This steak was one of the best I had in my life, that time the manager come and asked to cut in front of her (probably she wasn't confident about the point) Was so tender, I could even taste the difference of my friends steak that come correct to mine, was much better. The deserts are big! Specially the passion fruit creme brulee (but a little sweet for my taste) The flowerless chocolate cake was really good. At the end of our nightmare manager come again, said sorry and didn't charge one of our 4 plates. Food was really good, but experience wasn't good, I don't know if I will go back again, maybe I give another chance, but the service was so bad and our water wasn't friendly (when we asked why our order we'd taking more than an hour and half he said was because of the well done file, my wife told that was impossible and he just replied "yes, it is, do you want to talk with the manager?" she wouldn't, but as he suggested she said yes... That's all, sorry for the long review, I wish next time I will just post "amazing service, amazing food"

    Filet for bite 30
    Apple S.

    Ronnald and I wanted to try out one of the participating restaurants of Bite 30. I ended up choosing this place. I have regrets because it was just not that good. I had not taken the time to check the most recent reviews and I would possibly have changed our choice. The establishment was very nice. It's inside a Rosen hotel. Parking is complimentary for the restaurant which is great. Everyone was very friendly. Service was good. First complimentary warm bread with butter and pesto comes out. It was good. For first course we both picked the French onion soup. I wanted the crab cake but changed my mind after reading the reviews. However the French onion soup was in my personal option not good. It was fine but whoever decided to put a slice of bread in there that soaked up all the juice and there was not really any soup just soaked bread with cheese over it, ruined it for me (see picture). Flavor wise it was good. The main dish was an absolute failure. I had salmon with rice and vegetables. It was as bland as can be and very over cooked. Simply not good. I hardly ate any and took it home to my dog. The dessert was outstanding. I had something called passion fruit cheesecake crème brûlée and it was all that yet not too much, delicious. Presentation also amazing. And a huge portion. We found out desserts are not made in home but bought from an external company which made sense how this was so excellent but my other courses were so bad. Overall a great evening, I had a pleasant dining experience thanks to Ronnald M. with lots of laughter. Hope we can add some better food to our next Bite 30 experience.

    Magical wine - really delicious!

    This has been a place we have very much enjoyed over the years. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is upscale and the caricatures are so fun. We went the last night with our close friends and it was wonderful with excellent service by Sofia. We started with the complimentary bread and 'crack' pesto. The pesto is very delicious but I felt as thought it was almost too powerful in pesto flavor and needed more olive oil or something to tame it. Don't get me wrong - I still ate it...and, I always love their butter. Appetizers were the cheesy onion soup, New England clam chowder, ahi tuna and the Caesar salad. All were excellent. The soup was large enough to take some home. Next up was the filet, sea bass and chicken saltimbocca. These were well executed and delicious. We thought the sea bass was not as melt in your mouth as last time we went but still great. The server suggested the chicken and I loved it. I had never had it before and anything wrapped in prosciutto or bacon, I'm in. The al dente pesto pasta was an amazing accompaniment to the dish. We took leftovers here too. Desserts were the macaroons with lemon gelato - simple and refreshing. And, the key lime pie and chocolate torte. The torte was the rock star. Wow. Super chocolatey! We will certainly return again in the future.

    Nestled in the Rosen Centre Hotel you will find Jack's Place. We made a reservation to come for the tail end of bite30. We were seated close to the front, so I cannot comment too much about the layout and true ambience. We ordered the crab cake (amazing), 8oz filet (medium rare- closer to medium), and key lime pie. Everything was delicious; our server was very kind, but the entire service experience was on the slower end from getting our table after check in to taking orders.

    Highly recommend this place & I'm excited for their magical dining menu!! Great place for an upscale dinner date night, steak, and caricatures. The walls were decorated with cool drawings of icons throughout time. You can also get your own personal caricature drawn here by an artist Had the pleasure of enjoying their chicken pasta dish, glass of Cabernet. The pasta sauce was very savory and the glaze complimented the chicken If you're a fan of steak, their tomahawk steak was most popular and cooked to perfection. They had cuts available for every preference you could imagine. The service was generous and provided with a smile, all were helpful, and knowledgeable of the foods & drinks. Be sure to check them out!!

    Excellent dinner with Bite30 set menu. We tried filet mignon, tomahawk pork chop, salmon and chicken. All were very good. Caesar salad was a Caesar salad, crab cakes were hot and fresh off the grill. Deserts were all outstanding we had creme brûlée cheesecake, chocolate cake and key lime pie. Dave was an excellent server, good prompt service. Hot breads are really nice. Most highly recommended.

    Ribeye, asparagus and potatoes

    So good, cooked to perfection and potatoes were amazing!! Service was also great! Also had pretzel bites and i recommend!

    Where to start... oh I know, the amazing seafood platter. I don't even like cake, but I will eat these crab cakes all day until I turn purple. I may be allergic, but it is worth the epipen. Trust me. It is a bit pricey and it is an off menu item, but by far the starlight of the show. I lied. The starlight of the show actually was our server Erick who embraces the definition of 5-star service. Witty banter had my friend and I laughing the entire night. Served us with a smile, made excellent recommendations and paired a nice Malbec with our steak - I'll get to that thing later... Later is now. This steak, oh my god. The crust was so good it makes Papa John's "well done" look like a pizza without the oven. This thing was crispier than KFC extra crispy wings. It literally taught Popeyes how to cook in Louisiana that's how good this crust was. The flavor profile is intense, very well seasoned through each bite and it left me wanting my next bite. The ambiance is cozy, warm and inviting and it is an awesome spot to bring a date, Jack's Place is now my place. Thank you again to the awesome service and the experience we were provided during our visit. Erick again, if you were drafted for basketball for your service you'd be D1. Kudos. P.S. I want to add, if you've ever had a McDonalds apple pie, I need you to forget about it. If you've ever had a cookie made at home by Nonna I need you to forget about it. If you've ever had any dessert that made you think it was 5-stars, NO it is officially only 2 stars at best, and that's because you decided to dress up for Sunday and go to church so you were being polite. This Crème Brûlée is made with a passion-fruit cheesecake base and it is mind blowing. It is crispy, like the steak, where it needs to be. It is smooth, like butter. Please get this. P.P.S Stephanie, the one overlooking the entire operation at Jacks was a treat almost as sweet as the Crème Brûlée. Extremely personable, at the very end of our meal, introduced herself asked about our experience and talked to us about the history of Jack's Place. If I had the money, I'd buy some land here, but for now I'll respect the history and let them keep it.

    Salmon and Brussel sprouts
    Jennifer M.

    Honestly this is possibly the worst meal I've ever had. We were staying at the hotel due to Power being out & hurricane mess. We were excited to have a hot meal & enjoy magical dining here. The food was like school kid lunch is the best way I can describe it. Bread- hard, dry, store bought. They do serve it was a pesto sauce that was good. The Cesar salad was the most basic Cesar salad you can get. Filet- first one came out wayyy over cooked. It was like beef jerkey. Second one came out about 30 mins later and was very fatty and seemed like it was boiled in water. Absolutely no char at all, no flavor. Mashed potatoes were okay. Also came with ONE asparagus. I ordered the salmon which two people working told me it was good. It was the most dry fishy salmon I've ever had. I also asked to sub the rice pilaf it came w for Brussel sprouts which they did. These were the absolute worst Brussel sprouts I've ever had a restaurant. Also only came w about 6! I had asked the server to not cook any of my veggies in butter or oil please & he actually said "oh we don't" which was a lie because my veggies were covered in butter. My husband did like The key lime pie. The chocolate pie on the magical dining menu was good but whatever the stuff is on top seems stale. The restaurant is also kept at about 65 degrees so plan to dress warm or freeze. I'm honestly so bummed we wasted our money here.

    Food was ok. Not worth the money. Service was subpar at best. The only thing that was good was the ambiance. I do not recommend.

From the moment we walked in, he made sure to ask us questions and give recommendations because it was our first time. He let us know that these were the best burgers in Orlando, and he wasn't lying. The food, although a little pricey, was absolutely amazing. I ordered the Bangin' Shrimp as an appetizer, which blew me away. The shrimp had a tempura fry to it, giving it a perfectly crispy crunch. The sauces that were drizzled on top helped to amplify the flavor of the dish. For my main course, I ordered the Shroom N Swiss burger. I love how thick and juicy the burger patties are. It's hard to find a good burger place that has thick patties, and The Whiskey delivers that meat. Another thing that blew me away was the mushroom that came on top. Usually, mushroom burgers have little slices of mushrooms, but this burger had a big fat slice of mushroom on top. And it tasted so good. This is a perfect atmosphere to come in, grab a couple drinks, eat good food, and maybe even catch a sports game or live music. Only thing I will say is that it may be a little loud for some, making it hard to hear conversations. But if you love a loud atmosphere, then this place is perfect!

    I went Friday night at about 8pm and was able to find seating at the bar instantly. I ordered a…read moredrink called the Black Apple and it was delicious and decently sized. You can tell there was fresh fruit in it by the blackberry pieces in the drink. For my entree, I ordered The Royal and this was actually one of the best burgers I've had in my life. It was so juicy and flavorful, everything in the burger worked together. The house fries were crispy and tasty. The service itself was excellent and food and drinks came out quickly. Loved the vibes too. Next time I go will definitely be to catch the live music. I've already recommended this place to friends.

For a simple meal for two people, the service was unreasonably slow throughout the evening. Our server, Svet, was polite and personable, but friendliness alone could not make up for the delays. The hummus appetizer was excellent and was easily the highlight of the meal. It was flavorful and served with pita, cucumbers, carrots, and red peppers. The food presentation overall was attractive and showed promise. The most serious issue occurred when my son ordered a refill of his virgin mojito and was served a drink containing alcohol. He immediately noticed something was wrong after taking a sip and handed it to me. I tasted it as well and confirmed that it contained alcohol. Serving alcohol in a child's drink is a significant mistake and should never happen. We also ordered the steak frites based on a recommendation and were told it was exceptional. Unfortunately, the steak was extremely tough and chewy, making it difficult to eat and far from what was described. Management apologized and removed the steak from the bill, but the combination of excessive wait times, the alcohol mix-up involving a minor, and the disappointing entrée left a poor overall impression.

We didn't have a reservation and the wait time was over 40 minutes but we were able to find a couple seats at the bar. We came in for a couple drinks and some appetizers.

Honestly all the drinks I've had here have been great, that's just my go to at the moment. They were playing the game so we ordered a couple more drinks and sat at the bar for a bit.

It sends you text updates, and the technology is actually pretty cool. It can tell when you're not close enough yet and will tell you to check in once you're closer to the restaurant. There were 6 of us in the group, so reserving ahead definitely helped. I actually had to do it twice because we reserved our spot before we left, and by the time we got there, it had timed out. I checked in again, and when we arrived, the host said, "I see you checked in twice." He told us the wait would probably be about 10 minutes, and we ended up waiting less than that before being seated. Considering it's at Icon Park and it was the night of a game, the place was packed with a lot of hustle and bustle. I was impressed that we were seated so quickly, especially with a party of 6. Our waiter, Matt, was amazing, and the food was amazing too. We ordered what felt like almost every appetizer on the menu. We had the Cali Roll Stack, Parmesan truffle fries, crispy Brussels sprouts, spinach dip, and the vegan Gardein wings. The Cali Roll Stack was probably my favorite appetizer. It was so good, and it was made with real crab. Most places use imitation crab, and Matt even told us that's why it's his favorite appetizer too. He was absolutely right. The Gardein wings were surprisingly good. We ordered the Korean chili garlic and Buffalo flavors, and if nobody had told me they were vegan, I probably wouldn't have known. I'd never had a soy-based wing before, but I would definitely order them again. The Parmesan truffle fries were exactly what you want them to be, and the crispy Brussels sprouts disappeared fast. At that point, it seemed like everyone else was tapped out, but somehow we still had room to eat. We ordered the lobster garlic noodles, and they were amazing. They didn't skimp on the lobster either. There were big chunks of real lobster throughout the dish, along with spinach and garlic noodles. Definitely one of my favorite entrées of the night. I also tried the Key Lime Cider, and I liked that they let me sample it before ordering. It ended up being really refreshing and exactly what I was looking for. For dessert, we shared the brownie cookie topped with ice cream. Oh my God. I don't even like chocolate like that, and it was amazing. Yard House has never really disappointed me, but this visit was especially good. I don't know if we were just starving or if the chef was having an exceptional night, but kudos and hats off to the kitchen. Parking was easy too. Levels 3 and 4 of the garage were free, so there was no need to pay or get anything validated. Overall, everything was smooth from start to finish. Great service, great food, easy parking, and a surprisingly short wait despite how busy it was. 10/10, highly recommend.

Got our table exactly 20 minutes after checking in, the non talkative hostess took us to our table. Waiter very nice. The table we sat at was in a very warm section, our party sat down and uh didn't offer us additional water the entire time we were there. It was hot and I was thirsty and a refill would have been nice. Food was really good, I had a ruben sandwich lots of flavor. Which made up for the ambiance not sure what was going on but I have been to this place many times and never had a bad experience until now. I think our waiter was overloaded with tables but was super nice.

I've come here for my birthday. I already have plans for a visit when my family gets here in two weeks. Obviously, the food is phenomenal. I usually get Art's Famous Fried Chicken, which they say is Buttermilk-brined for 24 hours then and then flash fried. I have a severe shellfish allergy, and they're always very cautious. No matter who the server or floor manager is. Typically, it's served with creamy mashed potatoes, but I usually swap it out with Momma's Mac and Cheese. I've also had the Smothered Chicken, Bee Haven Fried Green Tomatoes, and the Skilled-fried Chicken Paillard, which is what most of the staff recommends as their favorite dish. And you always have to get a cheddar drop biscuit. That's a non-negotiable. This restaurant is very popular and often gets quite busy, so I recommend to make a reservation as soon as you're ready. But the busyness of the restaurant won't matter once you take a bite. The food is the ambiance and changes everything. Just trust me.

The fried chicken, which they're known for, was very disappointing. It was one of the driest fried chicken I've had in a while. The biscuit side was also very mid. Overall, I do recommend trying this place out, but skip their fried chicken (unless you just love chicken).

    Amazing place to grab lunch that's only steps from epic universe…read more I often forget that there's actual restaurants that sit outside the theme park bubble. I was really surprised when I found this place was only eight minutes from our hotel, which was the Helios, and that it had abundant parking. I had thought we were going to have to go to I drive to find lunch, but this place popped up on my Yelp search. I am so glad it did because it was amazing. On Saturday at 11 AM we were one of only a couple people in the restaurant, and the restaurant is huge. I heard it does get busy for dinner. Our waitress was so nice, whenever she left the table my younger son would ask where she went because he wanted to talk with her again. Almost everything is made in house and it shows. We loved everything we got. I got a Matcha cocktail off the brunch menu and it was amazing. Not too sweet and made with real Matcha powder. They do have a kids menu so my son got cheese pizza and it came with a side of fries or fruit. He decided on fries and the fries are delicious. We got a Caesar salad to share along with the steak and fries. The Caesar salad was amazing. The croutons were absolutely delicious and it was quite large so I'm glad we got it to share. The Steak Frites was also very good. It was topped with chimichurri sauce and the medium rare was cooked to perfection. The fries were the same as my sons fries and everybody loved them. They're skinny and seasoned with just the right amount of salt. After eating at the theme park, it is a joy to have high-quality food at reasonable prices. This restaurant is also beautiful and they have so many different types of wine on top that you can try. I really love this concept. I'm a huge fan of the drink menu, there were many other drinks that I wanted to try. If we were local, we'd be coming here almost every weekend. I highly recommend checking this place out.
