What does this mean? →Why it's listed
Knife & Spoon is a Michelin-starred fine-dining steak and seafood restaurant from chef John Tesar inside The Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes. Its specialty is dry-aged beef, with a Creekstone Prime bone-in ribeye and New York strip and an Akaushi bone-in ribeye on the broiler, and steaks aged 30 to 120 days offered as a daily staff-guided selection. Wagyu also appears as a picanha frites main and a Wagyu tenderloin steak tartare. The restaurant markets certified Kobe beef, and it holds a Kobe Beef Association licence, but Kobe is not printed as a named dish on the current menu.
Authenticity flags
- The restaurant advertises authentic certified Kobe beef and does hold a Kobe Beef Association licence, but Kobe is not listed as a set dish on the current menu; its premium dry-aged beef changes daily and is chosen with the staff. The named Wagyu on the printed menu is a picanha and a tartare with no stated grade or region, plus an Akaushi ribeye. If you are visiting specifically for Kobe, confirm it is available and ask its origin before you go.
