Had my anniversary dinner here and everything was fantastic. Service and food quality was up to par with prices. Don't expect to pay a low price but definitely worth it for a special night. Would recommend the filet mignon for 2 as that is what I jus thourougly enjoyed.
Steak was exquisite.. Sweet mashed potato was a treat.
For the last night of our stay, and for an anniversary dinner, we decided to book in here as we were staying at the Rosen Shingle Creek. The concierge recommended the September Magic menu.
We arrived and were greeted very nicely and led to our booth, where some decorations had been put with a card signed by some of the staff, including our very friendly and humorous host, Bob F. We did look at the main menu, but decided on the S.M.
The starters were Crab Cake and Ahi Tuna, which although not big (just as well, as we found out!) were well presented and tasty.
We'd ordered Filet Mignon and NY Sirloin, but there was a bit of miscommunication in the order - Bob hadn't taken the order, but between him, and the amicable manager, Thiago, they sorted everything out without any hesitation, and the meals came - perfectly cooked. From then on they both checked on us and chatted to round off our day as one to be remembered, for all the right reasons.
Desserts came with a beautifully presented couple of Creme Brûlées, and a chocolate offering which had to be tasted to be described.
Thanks guys for making it a great evening 🥂😄
Had dinner here during Magical Dining..The food was amazing and service was impeccable.
A Land Remembered, Rosen Shingle Creek's signature restaurant, places great importance on values. The value of quality on every level is top priority.
The chefs and staff go extra steps to ensure complete culinary perfection. One big step is the Harris Ranch beef, which brings them quality meats, far superior to the typical provisioner provided fare.
Attention to detail reigns supreme, down to details such as the alligator shaped pats of butter.
My lovely lady, otherwise known as Fab Fiancée, and I have grown to love all things Rosen! Take the time to read my heart-felt review of Rosen Shingle Creek Resort. That will give you some insight into how our passion has grown over just a few years. Whenever we stay at the resort, we look forward to at least one memorable night at A Land Remembered.
Our most recent visit, mid-July, was a celebratory weekend. The celebration of Fab One's birthday! How intriguing she'd ask to stay here for her birthday..I'm smiling and soooo thankful, too! I immediately put in our reservations for Saturday night dinner at ALR!
As we exited the waning Florida heat, we entered into an ambiance of excellence. The hostess somehow knew (Wink! Wink!) and wished Fab One a very 'Happy Birthday!'
We were delighted at her choice of table in a far and romantic corner near a window. As if that was not enough, we were thrilled when we saw Jorge approach our table. Jorge has served us before, and we absolutely love him! This wonderful gentleman would be our escort through the pages of this novel journey tonight. Hello Jorge!
Chapter one began with a captivating cup of Lobster Bisque. An ocean of flavor cresting with a splash of Sherry, this is a 'must-have' for us. Delectably deliciousOh so good!
Our main course selection was an incredibly easy decision to make. We've had it before and we were ready for it now..Drum-roll please.
Chateaubriand for Two!
I love the look of excitement on her face, the look of anticipation. (I know that look!)
The sweet aroma of grilled magnificence infuses the air. Our heads follow our olfactory commands to see Jorge wheeling up tableside with a cart of visual grandeur.
We are witness to finesse in a 20 ounce Center Cut Filet surrounded by the accompanying food accoutrements!
It was pure magic watching as Jorge carves each savory slice, then arranges and plates these with equal portions of Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Grilled Asparagus and Organic Wild Mushrooms. Our taste buds are dancing as he drizzles the Béarnaise Sauce ever so deftly.
The next 30 minutes are a bit of a haze. I think we entered A Land Slightly Blurred as we were carried away into food oblivion! Rational thought riding on the edge of a knife with only our senses razor sharp!
IF only I could write scents into my sentences, then I could truly share the aromatic array that so appealed to us.
Enter the Fine Dining Manager, Thiago. This young well-spoken gent introduced himself along with a newest member to the Rosen resort family. We eagerly engaged them in a conversation of epic proportions, as I saw it. Laughs Out Loud!
Thiago wanted to be totally sure our celebration was all that we expected and more. To which we gave a resounding positive affirmation!
Much to our surprise and her delight, to finish the night with a bang, Thiago and Jorge presented us with a decadently huge slice of Chocolate Mousse Cake!
Imagine a flourless Chocolate Cake layered with a Pecan Nougatine and a Milk Chocolate Cream Filling, topped with Raspberry Ganache & Fresh Fruit!
To properly give this restaurant 5 stars I must fly into the Cosmos and hand pick 5 of the most exquisitely luminous spheres in the universe.
Fortunately for all of us, we must travel no further than Shingle Creek to enjoy this stellar presence.
Tell them we sent you!
One of the best meals I have had in awhile. The seafood and steaks were beautifully seasoned and prepared and our host was incredibly attentive. I eat out a lot - this place stands out!
Amazing lobster and steak! I highly recommend it!
Great food, great service. Dry aged ribeye was perfectly medium rare and flavorful. Lobster bisque and goat cheese fritters were fine starters. Valet parking is complimentary.
The best steak, without exception! You will not be disappointed!
Worst streak house I have ever been to. Steak was over cooked, service was slow and very expensive for the poor quality. The bone in filet was very fatty. Heard from several other people that had the same experience.
The best steak I've had in years. Everything they served looked great and tasted even better! Service was went out of their way to make the experience great. Thank you guys!
