    This was our 2nd and last time visiting Bull and Bear. The food is good however the service SUCKS! We had a terrible service experience our 1st time to Bull and Bear and thought it may have been a one off but no their service is horrible. We sat at our table and waited over 30 minutes before anyone came over to take our drink order or anything, we were on of the first tables in the restaurant for the evening yet other tables had gotten their drinks and even bread service while we sat and waited for someone to come over. They messed up our entire order and had no clue where any of our food went. We had a party of 5 and the entire time we were handing each other plates as the servers had no clue where to place anyone's meals. We didn't have a designated server and multiple times they refilled my soda water with regular still water and I had to have it changed out. We spent around $850 and regretted not spending that somewhere else and getting exceptional service instead of the service we received.

    Best meal experience we have had in years. Every dish was delicious and perfect. We tried the corn soup. Fried chicken and mashed potatoes and the Chateaubriand then ended with the Lemon for dessert. Ask for Timmy to be your host through the experience.

    Four of us had a very good but very expensive dinner here Saturday night. The lobster bisque was heavenly. The gentleman who prepared food tableside was a true pro. The only miss was the lobster Mac and cheese - skip that! If you order anything not on the menu, ask the price: they charged almost $130 for a Delmonico for one! When they said it was like a Tomahawk, but for one, we thought it would be about half the price of it. Shame on us for assuming half the size equated to half the cost. We would return, just with caution.

    Well, I dont normally make posts about restaurants, especially when it is in a hotel that I am staying in, but this definitely needs to be reviewed. The reasons for the 2 stars: Good: The servers for the first 30 minutes were phenomenal, with greeting, bringing out water, eventually bread, and tasting a wine, good service for those 30 minutes. Bad: It seemed like after we informed the restaurant that we did not wish to have a glass of wine or even purchase a bottle, the customer service just stopped dead in its tracks, and that was the last 30 minutes before my wife and I decided to leave, no servers, no checking on us, just a glass of water that eventually got warm. Then to make matters worse, it was a couple of tables that came in after us that received their food, and we did not even receive ours, so immediately I felt that "since we aren't trying to spend a lot of money, then you are no longer our priority", which made me feel incredibly some type of way. What's sad is that if I really wanted to, I could have bought all of their wine bottles had I had a taste for wine, I really just wanted the food and experience, but I guess that wasn't enough for Bull & Bear. Never judge a book by its cover ladies and gentlemen. I suppose that unless you are stating that you are coming with deep pockets, then you will not be served well. Won't be returning and I should get an apology for being treated like that, especially when I could have afforded everything in that restaurant plus more.

    Cannot say enough good things about the experience. And that is exactly what it was an experience! The service was great, but the food far surpassed my expectations. Every single bite was immaculate! Literally everything I ate was perfect! Perfectly executed and timed. Hats off to the kitchen on being at the top of its game! I look forward to coming back!!!

    We decided to try Bull and Bear for our 25th anniversary. They had prepared the table with a special decor which added a nice touch. The bread and water filler staff were very attentive. The tea glass filler was a little slower :-) . The food was prepared as requested on the first attempt for all but 1 person at the table. But it took well over 30 minutes for the main course to be served. The entire experience lasted longer than it needed to which would be our only complaint. Back to the food everything we had was very tasty we had Filet, NY Sirloin, Mashed Potatoes, Cream Corn, Steamed Spinach. For dessert, we had The Lemon, which was tasty and a must try if you visit. We also were treated to a flaming creme brulee, which was also very tasty. We have eaten at most of the steak houses around Orlando and would put this in the top 5.

    We were a little hesitant to return based on our last experience but glad we went. Service by Tim P. and team was outstanding. I recommend the Iberico pork chop and Australian wagyu. The Caesar salad prepared tableside was excellent. My wife also enjoyed the corn soup. Let’s be real - if places like Knife & Spoon or Capa can earn a Michelin star then Bull & Bear certainly deserves one because they are just as good if not better.

    I have to say I’ve been waiting to come to the restaurant but I was very underwhelmed - all of the staff was really nice but the entree’s lacked salt until they brought the salt tray which was cool. Drinks were amazing, apps and salad were really good but the pork chop and Steal frites truly lacked flavor - even the peppercorn sauce.

    We were in Florida on holiday on our 25th anniversary so booked a meal for two at Bull & Bear. Everything was just awesome and amazing. The service was exceptional. The food delicious with too many great options, thank goodness they allow half portions of the sides so you can try more. Splitting of mains wasn't an issue either. They accommodated us having the split steak cooked to both our likings, medium for me and then cooked further at the table on a sizzler to medium-well done for the wife. It was expensive but well worth it to celebrate our anniversary, I would recommend a visit.
