Why Travelers Love Kres Chophouse

Sourced from recent guest feedback and verified reviews.

4.7 / 5.0(3,129 reviews)

For impeccable service, food cooked to perfection and cocktails crafted just right you'll want to visit Kres Chophouse. The atmosphere is dark and edgy, almost a step back in time but yet modern, the staff is friendly and knowledgeable about their products, exactly the service you want from a fine establishment. The steaks are superb and you will not find better truffle parmesan fries anywhere. For appetizers you cannot go wrong with the shrimp cocktail because it is a classic but if you are a more adventurous person then try the oysters Rockefeller or the filet mignon tartare, you will not be disappointed. Hands down Kres Chophouse is my favorite restaurant in Orlando and I always look forward to my next visit. I recently experienced the three-course vegan menu at Kres Chophouse, and it truly exceeded all expectations. This is easily one of the best high-end vegan experiences available in Central Florida, whether you're plant-based or not. From the moment we arrived, the wonderful service and cozy atmosphere made the dining experience welcoming and memorable. We started with the Tofu Chimichurri Skewers, which were incredibly flavorful and a vibrant way to begin the meal. Every dish was beautifully plated, showing the care and artistry of the kitchen staff. The small touches made a huge difference: the vegan butter served with the bread was out of this world, rich and perfectly seasoned, and the side of sweet potato mash was phenomenal—easily some of the best I've ever had. The main course, the Vegan Wellington, was a true triumph. I was blown away by how much it tasted like meat; the flavor profile was incredibly rich and savory. While my puff pastry was slightly burned on the bottom, the incredible flavor of the filling and the execution of the dish still made it taste great. I was also impressed by the large portions, leading me to take half of the entree home—great value for the quality. The meal concluded perfectly with the brownie and accompanying salted caramel ice cream and sauce. The house-made ice cream was phenomenal, and the sauce paired with the brownie was equally delicious. This was a five-star finish to a remarkable meal. A fantastic night (birthdays for my twins who just turned 21 and were having their first legal dinner libation at Kres). What a great vibe inside the restaurant - high end city but extremely cozy. It was really a special night - service from front door to server was great, food was on point - with most of my fam getting the Wellington, while I got the 8oz Filet with wild mushrooms. An excellent calamari starter and a couple of their excellent specialty drinks.. By the way.. the IntoTheWoods old fashion was superb. Neighboring tables even commented how nice it smelled (arrived with a bit of trapped smoke) and along with the bourbon and cinnamon, was one of the best I've had. The icing on the cake was the birthday deserts for my birthday girls - each superb. I've been looking for a great central florida chophouse - and we all agreed, it was better than any we've been to yet. Return visits are a definite.

Food here is amazing! We had the Old-Fashioned and the S’mores Old-Fashioned — both were delicious and perfectly balanced. For dinner, we ordered the ribeye, asparagus, and parmesan mashed potatoes. Everything was cooked to perfection and full of flavor. The ribeye, especially, was tender, juicy, and cooked exactly how we wanted it. The crème brûlée was also excellent, creamy, rich, and with the perfect caramelized top. Our waiter, Robert, made the experience even better! He was incredibly kind, attentive, and gave us great recommendations. We’ll definitely be coming back!

This was an absolutely incredible experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with smiles, authenticity, and acknowledgement for our first year anniversary. We got a great table and an even better waiter. Sterling was knowledgeable, kind, and very good at his job. Our drinks were never empty, he didn’t leave us too long but didn’t come back too often either. His recommendations were incredible and we were extremely happy with the service. The food was even more incredible. From the starters to the dessert, each dish was the perfect temperature, seasoned well, and delivered promptly. My wife and I had a great time and this just might be our special occasion spot from here on out. The prices weren’t even too bad either for such high quality food and service. Highly recommend and very glad to have experienced this. Thanks so much!
