K Restaurant

It was my turn to plan the date night, and I was really searching for something new. We have lived on the east side of Orlando for almost 14 years, and have seen and done pretty much every restaurant in the area. Thank goodness for Yelp, because I searched "romantic restaurant" and this came up!

I have to say I was really unimpressed with the decor. We were in the front room, by the windows, and it just seemed dated and cramped. However, the server (can't remember his name, but he's loud and proud, and a whole lotta fun!! You'll know him when you get him...) was great. Very attentive and hilarious! Had my husband in tears with his humor. The food was equally as good. I am allergic to shellfish, so we asked them to modify the fried green tomatoes. I'm sure they are tons better with all the crab stuffing, but I'd much prefer NOT to spend the night in the hospital.

They have a great wine list; I was impressed with some hard to find wines on there. I had the duck, and loved it. We spent hours at our table, talking, laughing, and really enjoying the evening. It is definitely a romantic dinner spot, and we will be back!

We decided to to take our friends out for dinner at K.  We heard great reviews about the food, especially how the menu options change frequently and they offer an eclectic range of various varieties for foodies!  K did not disappoint!  

We all started out with individual salads, I had the "Stacked" (Heirloom tomatoes with whipped goat cheese and a vinaigrette).  Simply Amazing!  Wish every salad tasted so good.  The other salads were Arugula, and Wedge.  The one disappointment, was that 2 of the featured salads along with some appetizers were sold out.  

For our entrees, I had the Wagyu Strip, basically an intense cut of Japanese beef presented on a bamboo cutting board along with thick, well-seasoned fries.  My wife had the succulent Filet Mignon, our guests had the Eggplant Parm and Venison.  

Both beef dishes were done to perfection.  It was my first time eating Wagyu beef, and I found it to be no different than any other great piece of steak.  The venison, which can be tricky to prepare, due to its toughness and gamey taste, was very tender and was accompanied with a sauce that paired well with it.  

Overall, we had a great time, and will go back again....but be prepared to shell out some $$$ (Party of four = $200).

Pro's:  Great food, nice variety, good wine selection
Con's: Space was a little too cramped, certain foods sold out, no alcohol except wine, pricey.

Great staff, delicious food, classy atmosphere
