Zagat

“Perfectly grilled steaks headline a roster of superbly prepared plates paired with excellent wines at this high-end Winter Park chophouse; an experienced team oversees a formal, old-time setting complete with a piano lounge, and the special-occasion prices are worth it for an all-around memorable meal; P.S. magicians perform tableside on Saturdays.”
