We love Kres! I'm vegan and love all of their options. It's nice to go to a fancy restaurant and always get a top notch meal. Alexi was our server for Mother's Day dinner. He's the best! Thanks for making our meal so memorable. Alexi and all of the staff made our dining experience enjoyable and memorable. My mother always gets the carpacio, it melts in your mouth. She got the pork chop for dinner, it was plump and juicy. A round of applause to the Kres team. Keep up the great work! read more

We walked here from our hotel for dinner. It was a little busy. Without a reservation they said we could wait 45 minutes or sit at the bar. We chose to sit at the bar. The restaurant is nicely decorated. It feels warm and inviting. Clean, but nostalgic. The waiter/bartender was wonderful. Very attentive, friendly and hard working. They were super busy, but we felt well-taken care of. I ordered the 8oz filet with broccolini as a side. We ordered truffle fries to share as a table. We had a couple of glasses of wine. The meal was delicious. Everything came out perfect! I would definitely return. But I'd make reservations next time. read more

Last night my friend took me to Kres for an early birthday celebration. The hostesses were SO welcoming and kind and wished me a happy birthday. The ambiance of the restaurant was very intimate and dimly lit, with black and red accents everywhere, including the tables with one red rose placed in a small vase. Bojan was our server and he was spectacular. He explained the wine list and menu to us and asked if we needed any assistance in choosing / had any questions about the menu. My only complaint of the evening is our appetizers seemed to take a tad bit long to be served, but everything else was fabulous. I ordered the tequila lavender cocktail, which is nothing like I've ever tasted before. It had coconut cream, lime, tequila, and lavender. It was delicious. We started off by sharing a Caesar salad and Parmesan truffle fries. We also were served bread service with a side of garlic oil. The caesar salad was served with a Parmesan pita crisp, and the fries were very crunchy and delicious. We split two entrees: the salmon and the vegan stuffed shells. The stuffed shells were fairly small, with only 4 in the entree, but was nonetheless flavorful and delicious. I almost forgot it was vegan! The salmon was a large cut and served over a creamy risotto and was my favorite of the evening. It was delicious. We ordered the lava cake for dessert and Bojan went the extra mile by placing a birthday candle inside of it and ended up providing the dessert on the house! This was so special and we appreciated it so much. read more

Celebrating a milestone anniversary here with my Mr. made quite the impression. It was his pick. Clearly he has good taste. Further evidence, his choice of spouse. Anyhoo.... stepping into the place sets the mood for romance. It has a sexiness to it, with red tones, retro vibes, and ambiance lighting. Lately I'm really appreciating the historical value of venues, and this building definitely has it. Originally constructed in the 30s as a five-and-dime retailer, the current upscale dining is a departure from those earlier days, yet respectful of the nostalgic aura. Honestly I wasn't wowed by the service. Not lacking in meeting needs, yet also not a standout in the experience for me. The food, however, was stellar. My Filet Wellington was indulgently tender and all our sides were delicious. Even as leftovers, it still hit almost the same. No stringent dress code here. People in t-shirts, maybe just from the theme parks. Not so upscale in that regard. read more

Omg. This place knows how to make Vegan food. Let me start by saying, I'm not vegan. My son is vegan and he invited me to this amazing steakhouse for mother's day. He heard from coworkers that they had a full vegan menu. Guys, everything was so good! I got the pork chop and pork belly but everything else, the appetizer and dessert was vegan. The sourdough bread was so good and the vegan butter was amazing. We started with "oysters" Rockefeller (oyster mushrooms, vegan parm and some other yummy stuff on an artichoke "shell") as our appetizer. My son got the vegan "beef" wellington and he said it was really really good. The dessert was a churro waffle with vegan housemade ice cream that was to die for. Unfotunately i forgot to take a pic of it. Definitely need to come back. Our server Robert was amazing and kind! read more

I would give Kres Chophouse more than five stars if I could. We chose this spot for a last-minute dinner, and it ended up being one of the best meals I've had in Orlando. We sat at the bar and were taken care of by Heidi, who was incredibly sweet and gave great recommendations. We ordered a variety of dishes and drinks to try, and everything exceeded our expectations. The dim lighting creates such an intimate setting, which made the whole experience feel even more special. I've already recommended this place to my girlfriends, and I'm already looking forward to my next visit! read more

My husband planned a date night and set up a reservation for Kres Chophouse. When you walk in it's dark and romantic with a single light and fresh flower on each table. Our server was very polite and attentive. He also was very helpful when looking at the menu, since it was our first time dining. We ordered the Calamari for an appetizer, my husband ordered the 16oz Ribeye, and I ordered the Filets with Shrimp and Carbonara, and a Bread a Pudding for dessert. The calamari was so tender, fresh, and seasoned really well. My husband's ribeye was cooked to perfection and was so soft a butter knife could cut through it. My filet and shrimp tasted amazing. The carbonara had fresh veggies and the egg yolk mixed into the pasta make it into a silky sauce. The steak was the best steak I've had in Orlando in a very long time. We also ordered a side of Mac and Cheese with Shrimp. This Mac and cheese was so good I could've just ate a bowl of that for dinner and been happy. To finish our meal we had bread pudding and it was the perfect ending to the meal. The hospitality and quality of food was next level and I'm shocked more people aren't talking about Kres. I will definitely be back in the near future. read more

Amazing anniversary dinner! The service is fantastic, and we loved our food. The interior is dark and has classic steakhouse vibes. You wouldn't expect to find vegan dishes at a steakhouse, but Kres has a whole vegan menu with tons of options. I started off with the Pear Martini, which was very refreshing and not too sweet. I ordered off the Kres Vegan prix fixe menu, which gives you an appetizer, entree, and dessert for $49. I thought it was well worth the money! The Chickpea & Artichoke "Crab" Cake was very good and crispy. It was served with some pickled vegetables that paired very nicely. The Vegan "Beef" Wellington was a stunning dish, unlike anything I have tried before. The flavor was amazing, and the vegan beef had a spot-on meat texture. I also loved the sweet potato mash. The churro waffle was crispy and covered with cinnamon sugar. The vegan ice cream was amazing and went perfectly with the warm waffle. My husband ordered the Filet with a side of Parmesan Mashed Potatoes. He loved his steak, and we both thought the potatoes were delicious and smooth. We also shared the creme brulee, which had a great crust on top. This dinner was pricey but very worth it. The service was amazing from start to finish, and we both left so full. read more

Still my favorite restaurant in Orlando. My family went here for dinner to celebrate my son's birthday. The food was amazing as always. Our server made sure that we had a good experience celebrating our son. They brought out a nice dessert and sang Happy Birthday. We found out that the restaurant no longer validates the valet parking. It is still the best bet and most convenient option. It cost $20. My partner and I tried the Filet Wellington which was absolutely amazing. The meat was so tender that I did not need a knife to cut it. The other main dishes were the Chicken PIccata and the Mixed Grill. The lamb on the mixed grill was delicious. One of the members of the party had the Maine Lobster Bisque as a starter, and I had the Chophouse Caesar Salad. We had the Bread Pudding for dessert. Always a winner. The ambiance is perfect for a quite dinner or a romantic meal. read more

Listen... when your husband picks the spot for your 21st wedding anniversary and actually gets it RIGHT... yeah, I had to give him his props From the moment we walked into Kres Chophouse, the tone was set. The hostesses were polite, welcoming, and attentive... one even gave us a heads up to watch our step on the way to the table. Small detail, big impression. Now let's talk about Justin, our waiter... baby, when I say top-tier service, I mean that. He had that effortless vibe like "I'd grab drinks with him" energy, but still kept it professional. He wasn't hovering, wasn't missing... just right there when needed. You could tell he treats every table with care because other guests were low-key watching how he handled us... and we all had that silent "yeah, he's good" moment. IYKYK. What really stood out though... the teamwork. We watched the staff reset and prepare for another party, and it was like a well-oiled machine. No chaos, no confusion... just smooth coordination. Even the manager made rounds, spoke to guests, and personally brought out our calamari appetizer. That kind of presence matters. Now the food... whew. The calamari? Seasoned ALL the way through... not just a little sprinkle on the outside. You could taste it in the meat... and that's how it's supposed to be done. My husband ordered the pork chop... which threw me off because we don't even eat pork like that. But listen... he trusted the reviews and took a chance... and it paid off. Tender, juicy, seasoned right... every bite. And then... we did what we always do... turned a table for two into a whole situation Ribeye... shrimp & bacon mac... au gratin potatoes... Brussels sprouts (because yes, we always getting Brussels )... We are real deal food people... not just eating, but tasting. Flavor profiles, seasoning, texture... all of it. I grew up in the kitchen with my grandmother, so trust... I know what I'm talking about. And Kres? They delivered. Bottom line... the service was impeccable, the food matched the energy, and the overall experience felt intentional... not rushed, not forced... just right. We came to celebrate love... and left full, and impressed. read more

What a delightful place to visit! I wanted to show my cousin the upmost appreciation and asked her where she'd like to have dinner. She's vegan and had been here before. The atmosphere is amazing! Not too loud to have great conversations and enjoy each other's company. As for the food... I wanted to try the vegan menu and it did not disappoint! I had the pear toast - oh my! So light and delicious! Went with the ricotta & spinach stuffed shells - yummy! And the "brookie" for dessert. My cousin had her "usual": Portobello vegan escargot, vegan beef Wellington, and churro waffle. The service was outstanding! A+ I most definitely want to come back with my husband! read more

Once again, Kres did not disappoint. I know I don't need to make reviews each time I go, but I just had to make this one. I went, for my birthday, on 03/22 and my family members got stuck behind an accident, on the way to dinner. Instead of making us wait, we were seated and the great time began. We couldn't sit together, but we were near each other. I ordered the krab cake, chik'n, and the waffle cone from the vegan menu, it was so good (I appreciate their vegan menu). My non-vegan family members enjoyed their meals as well. The team was amazing and accommodating, as we had a little too much fun. I appreciate them being flexible. Friendly folks greet you when you walk in. Valet is across the street. The cost is reasonable for the quality of the food. The atmosphere was great, cozy. The bathroom was clean, as usual. Overall, Kres is a great place to dine for any occasion. Even if you're just hungry and want to vibe while you dine, Kres could be your place. The drinks are, typically, very delicious and you can taste what needs to be tasted (wink). Unfortunately, my Flower drink wasn't as tasty as it usually is. I didn't send it back because I drank it anyway . I figured they were in a rush or something, it's a one-off. Ultimately, I know my drink will be right the next time I go back. read more

Dining at Kres Chophouse feels a bit like spotting a gator in a golf course pond: technically impressive, mildly confusing, and you're never entirely sure who's in charge of the situation. The service moved at the pace of an Orlando theme park line in July but with fewer refreshments. My glass of strawberry lemonade sat empty long enough to qualify as a drought, and it's not like that drink required a mixologist. By the time we hit the 1-hour-and-10-minute mark and had just wrapped appetizers with still more waiting, I began to wonder if our entrées were being sourced locally... on foot. Speaking of appetizers, the lineup read like a greatest hits album: * Escargot: slightly overcooked, proving that even snails can be rushed in Florida. I've had more tender bites on a Carnival Cruise, which is a sentence I don't write lightly. * Snake River Wagyu Carpaccio: Undeniably delicious, though presented as if Jackson Pollock had a late-night caper incident. The drizzle and scatter distracted from what could've been a minimalist masterpiece. * Filet Mignon steak tartare: Solid, but missing the classic quail egg, which felt like forgetting Mickey's ears at Disney, technically fine, but why would you? All of it was good. None of it was unforgettable. Like a Florida sunset slightly upstaged by a passing jet ski. The main courses redeemed things somewhat: * The New Zealand elk paired with shrimp and bacon mac and cheese was genuinely delicious and confidently Floridian in its "why not both?" energy. That said, no one asked how it should be cooked, which felt bold for a place that charges like it definitely should? * The jumbo cold water lobster tail with Three Cheese Au Gratin and Parmesan mashed potatoes was equally solid. No complaints, no standing ovation. Then there's the ambiance, which deserves its own reality show as things go full-Florida. Kres seems caught between identities: is it a high-end chophouse or a downtown lounge with steak privileges? * Seductive red lighting at the bar (date night) * European-style crown molding (low budget Caesar's palace) * Japanese-inspired light fixtures (Tokyo drift, but make it steak) * Deep red walls (Miami nightclub) It' lacked a cohesive aesthetic and was giving "Epcot pavilion after two margaritas." A sign at the entrance politely requested no ball caps or provocative clothing, ironic really. It was about as enforceable as "no feeding the wildlife" in Florida. Caps and clothing provocateur were abundantly present, adding to the ongoing identity crisis. And then, the pièce de résistance: witnessing a woman in minimal clothing directing her son to take influencer-in-the-wild photos. Somewhere, a flamingo nodded in approval. We were seated near the front window, distinctly removed from the main dining room, maybe due to a lack of capacity or maybe due to our party of three not giving "VIP bottle service adjacent" energy. It felt a little off but none of us had the energy to contend with it. Final verdict: Kres Chophouse delivers good food wrapped in an identity crisis and paced like a scenic airboat tour. It's not bad, in fact, far from it, but it's also not the culinary revelation it seems to think it is. In true Florida fashion, it's a little flashy, a little chaotic, and just self-aware enough to be entertaining... the perfect dining experience to capstone a Florida vacation. read more

We celebrated my birthday at Kres and had a truly phenomenal experience. The service was ON POINT and the food was so dang good. It's a big space but make sure you have a reservation. We were seated about 10 minutes after our reservation - but to be fair, my birthday is the day before Valentine's Day. Make sure you give yourself time to park, street parking is limited. Service was an A+. We had plenty of table touches, great cocktails, appropriately hot/cold food, you can name it. They gave us a fun birthday dessert that was INSANELY GOOD. Everything was fresh and delicious and I'm honestly ready to come back again. read more

Amazing dinner last night at Kres. Great service, wish I got the servers name he was great, and upscale but comfortable ambiance. Food was one of thr best meals I've had in Orlando in quite some time (outside of bosphorous on park ave obviously). We started with calarami, perfect start. I had the chicken piccata and it was amazing. My mom had the tile fish, brother had the duck and moms husband had the steak/shrimp. Could not recommend this place enough so glad to see this place thriving in Downtown as its historically not the foodiest part of Orlando. See pics below! read more

The baby spinach salad pretty good though the warm bacon dressing was a bit strange due to the temperature difference of the cold greens. The flavor of the salmon was good, though may have been a bit overdone, saved by the sauce. Side of garlic parm green beans was delicious. Ambiance was upscale with dim lighting. Service was adequate, but quite stuffy. Overall an okay experience, but I don't think it's worth the hefty price tag it carries. read more

Celebrated our anniversary at Kres Chophouse, and as always, the food was absolutely amazing. This is one of our go-to spots for special occasions because the quality and consistency never miss. We started with a Caesar salad to share -- crisp, fresh, and perfectly dressed. Simple, but done right. For our mains, we ordered the 20oz ribeye and the 16oz lobster tail. The ribeye was beautifully seasoned with the perfect sear on the outside and juicy, flavorful center. And the lobster tail? Huge, just like they always are. Tender, buttery, and cooked perfectly -- easily one of the standout dishes every time we come. We also had the shrimp and bacon mac and cheese (without the bacon), and it was still rich, creamy, and packed with flavor. The shrimp were cooked just right and blended perfectly into the dish. The ambiance is intimate and upscale without feeling stuffy -- perfect for celebrating something special. Service was attentive without being overbearing, which made our anniversary dinner feel even more relaxed and enjoyable. Kres truly never disappoints. If you're celebrating a milestone or just want a guaranteed great experience, this is the place. We'll definitely be back... again read more

Come to Kres Chophouse for lunch or dinner, and expect a fabulous dining experience! You want to make a reservation before coming, even for lunch. But when you do, you are fretted warmly and the ambience is calm and lovely inside. I tried a swordfish dish, and swordfish is just a dense white fish which can be hard to work with. But it was just divine, all the flavors worked together perfectly and I finished the whole plate. Our servers were super nice and attentive, and it is spendier to eat here but it is well worth it with the whole experience. read more

Kres is a staple in downtown Orlando so I would suggest making a reservation for lunch or you can get lucky and get a spot at the bar. Lunch is the go to spot for business meetings but don't let that scare you away. I have not had anything I didn't like here. For lunch our group likes to get the salmon salad, sandwiches and just everything on the menu. The fish sandwich is now a crispy cod and is very fresh and I always get the sweet potatoes fries. I know it's bad etiquette to finish everything on your plate but I just can't help myself. Then we had the bread pudding and it's a perfect sharing dessert. The bread pudding so warm, comes with a scoop of ice cream and whipped cream. For a non dessert person, this was so good because it's not super sweet. read more

I have been coming to Kres for years and I'm glad I'm finally making a review:) Working downtown it is a great lunch spot that is different than most of the experiences downtown for lunch, for the amount of food and the quality of the food it definitely has a great price point for lunch. It's a fun place to go for birthdays or celebrations for coworkers! I always get the salmon salad. It's so filling and never disappoints. I've also been here for my anniversary and a birthday dinner and I love the change of ambience from lunch to dinner. You definitely feel very upscale and it is probably one of the main places I recommend to people who want just more of an elevated experience! I also want to point out our waitress knew the order of one of my coworkers because my coworker goes there more than I do and I just think that that is such an amazing testament to the customer service that is also provided there as well! read more

We went to Kres Chophouse before seeing The Nutcracker at the Dr. Phillips Center, and it ended up being a great choice. We hadn't been in a few years and really wanted to go back, but there weren't any reservations available online. So we showed up right when the doors opened at 5pm, hoping to grab a spot. The hostess was quick to help us out--she rushed us through the crowd and managed to snag one of the last two tables at the bar for us. We started with the Calamari "Vesuvio", which was delicious. I ordered the Roasted Half Duck, and my husband had the Filet & Shrimp from the Classics & Creative section. Both dishes were excellent, and we paired them with a bottle of Belle Glos Pinot Noir Las Alturas, which worked perfectly with the meal. The service was lovely--both our waiter and waitress were friendly and attentive. The atmosphere was spot-on for a date night: lively but not overwhelming. The music was loud enough to give some privacy from nearby tables, but we could still hear each other easily. Parking is a bit tricky since it's mostly street parking or garages, but being within walking distance of the theater made it super convenient. Overall, it was a great night--fantastic food, great service, and a nice vibe. We'll definitely be back. read more

I was in a group of six coworkers last night and we decided to try Kres. We were not disappointed! The food was amazing including exceptionally prepared beef and surprisingly a fantastic vegan selection. We had one person in our party that was hoping for a vegan option. They found a vegan menu that apparently was very good. The wait staff were friendly, organized, very helpful and just plain pleasant. Definitely give it a shot if you are in town and maybe you will spot someone that is in the public eye like we did. Don't ask. I not saying who it was. read more

10 years later and 5 RESOUNDING stars for spectacular steaks and service, and an additional vegan menu that SHINES! My sister and I eat meat and our husbands are vegetarians. This makes Kres one of the few upscale steakhouses where we are all accommodated since they have a robust vegan menu. It's full of seitan and tofu dishes that mimic traditional steakhouse dishes and it is clear that there was a lot of care, creativity, and intention in crafting this vegetarian / vegan menu to go along with their regular meat-forward menu. Parking: There's convenient parking garages all around Kress, but my preference is the valet just outside on Church Street ($20, but it's a fancy night out, so I'm down). Our server, Angelica, was a GEM. She truly helped make this a standout evening. with suggestions and great banter. I'd ask for her again next time! Food Faves: - Filet Wellington: This was my dish and I was blown away. It was the most perfect Wellington I've ever had. The flavors were deep and the pastry was flakey. It was worth the $50+ price tag. - I tried my sister's Filet (thinking there was no way it could compete with the Wellington) and the rich flavor took me by surprise. No sauce needed- this was a well-seasoned hunk of premium meat. And the medium rare cook was perfect. - White Chocolate Bread Pudding: This is a truly fabulous dessert. Hot meets cold with the bread pudding and whisky sauce hitting the vanilla ice cream. We shared this and the seasonal cheesecake, but our table was evenly divided on a favorite. Everything else we ordered was great and there were truly no misses. My vegetarian husband was thrilled to have something other than a salad or mushroom dish, and the vegan menu pricing was seriously reasonable. This is back on our rotation as a favorite date night spot for this vegetarian/meat-eater household! read more

This is tough. Service is always fantastic and the steaks are generally pretty good. The rotating other options can be great or just not good it really depends since they often change the menu options. They are pretty much the ONLY game in downtown for an upscale dining date or business dinner. You will find them priced appropriately since there are not many other options. I mean downtown is struggling and the historic building that is maintained very well is appreciated. Please not how many people here comment on how fantastic the service is so maybe it's worth a premium price to get excellent service. That's for you to decide but you can bank on getting a good piece of steak nonetheless. read more

We love this steakhouse and typically come in for happy hour or perfect just before a show or concert at the kia center nextdoor. Service was on point as usual. Our wait staff was very attentive and upbeat. They brought items out fresh and without delay. Thanks for recommending the octopus and shrimp appetizer. We had never noticed it and boy were We excited to have it. Absolutely amazing. So soft and tender - just like the ribeye and full of flavor. What stood out this visit was the vegan strawberry ice cream churro waffle. Mind blown. Usually with vegan, you tend to give up flavor BUT not here!! read more

Finally came to the Kres. Kres Chophouse that is. I have heard some very good things about them, but also that it is pricey. Well, I just discovered they have a lunch menu and their prices are reasonable, so here we are. Came with my coworkers and we sat at the tables by the bar, as the restaurant was very busy. It took some time for our server to get to us, so another server assisted us and brought us our drinks. Our server made it to us and we were ready to order. I ordered the Steak Salad and my coworkers ordered the Chophouse Turkey Club and the Wagyu Cheesesteak Sandwich. Everything looked amazing but my coworker with the Turkey Club noticed her sandwich was fish instead of turkey. We called our server to let her know and she immediately knew what was going on, so she did not even let my coworker explain and took the food away, which I thought was little rude on her part. :( My salad was delicious and the steak medallions were savory, tender and mouthwatering. The Cheesesteak was delicious and very filling and the fries that come with it were tasty and scrumptious. Finally, the Turkey Club arrived and it did not disappoint. The restaurant itself is very inviting and classy and by having a lunch menu makes it accessible to almost every crowd. read more

I had a wonderful experience on my recent visit to Kres! My boyfriend picked it for my birthday dinner and it was the perfect selection . The ambience is very nice, kind of sultry with the red being the main focus but I loved the detail of the fresh rose on every table. (I'm not sure if that is year round or just because my birthday is 2 days before V-day lol) They have an exhaustive wine list but we opted for the cocktails and they were very well made! The main star of the night was the food however. I originally wanted the NY strip Au Poivre but it must be popular because the kitchen was sold out for the night so I opted for the chicken piccata. The picture may look messy but that it because it is brought out still in the pan and played table side which was a nice feature. The flavors on everything was perfect! Chicken was tender, noodles were tasty and the overall sauce was so good and flavorful! Would definitely order again! My boyfriend had the duck and loved it! For my birthday dessert I had the chocolate molten turtle with the ice cream...10/10! We loved this place and absolutely plan to return! Also, special shoutout to our waiter Robert for being so knowledgeable on the menu and helping to guide us on our choices! He was very pleasant and certainly added to the experience. read more

Kres is genuinely one of the best restaurants I've ever been to. As a vegetarian, I'm used to picking from a few sides or ordering some not so great black bean burger at restaurants, but Kres has every restaurant beat by miles with their Vegan menu. I did the $49 three course vegan meal and got Strawberry Toast as my appetizer, which was absolutely phenomenal and nothing like anything I've ever had before. For my entree I got the "Chicken" bucatini, which was also incredible as well. The chicken texture was a little softer than I'd prefer, but it's so freaking hard to mimic real meat texture so that's just me being picky lol. The pasta was incredible though and the flavor was fantastic. I took the churro waffle home and ate it a few days later and it was amazing! Whatever house ice cream they had that day was very delicious as well. Staff was incredible and super friendly, and the ambiance was very nice as well. I've told so many people I know about Kres and am very very satisfied with my first experience there! read more

Kres Chophouse may be known for its steaks, but we turned it into a seafood haven and, honestly, what a win.
