10786 S Federal Hwy
Port St Lucie FL
772 335-3616
This is Italian dining at its finest, bar none. Since the first time I went there some 14 years ago I have never ever had to use a knife to cut their veal parmigiana. Their osso bucco is to absolutely die for. If you are up for just spaghetti and meat sauce or meat balls, that too is fantastic.
Casa Stefano is a small family owned and run restaurant. Stefano does all the cooking and his wife runs the dining room. Extremely rare is the occasion when Stefano does not come out from the kitchen to say hello and ask how your dinner was. As with most restaurants in the area, dress is as you please, from casual, as in shorts, to dressed to the nines. Casa Stefano is all about great food and very reasonable prices. Sorry though, they do not serve pizza, but do have beer and wine.

last modified: 2009-05-30 20:47:36 | | | If you want to get away from Disney, and want a good steakhouse, Del Frisco's is excellent. A bit pricey, but worth it. It's located not far form where I live, but it about 1/2 hour from Disney. It will give you a tiny taste of the "real" Orlando, however.
Orlando offers excellent barbecue. Bubbalou's Bodacious BAR-B-QUE is a local favorite, but can be a bit spotty now and then. ( »www.bubbalous.com/ ) The Kirkman Rd/Universal Studios location is about 15 minutes from Disney. One of my favorites is Cecil's Texas Style Bar-B-Q. There's a location nearby which was recently featured on Al Roker's show. It has the added benefit of being a favorite of the local Sheriff's office, so there's usually armed security. :) »www.cecilsbbq.com/ (Orange Ave. location ... about 20 minuts from Disney, south of downtown).
If you want to stay close to Disney, but leave the property, you have a huge number of options within 5 miles. If you haven't been to a Bahama Breeze (location: »www.bahamabreeze.com/ ) yet, they're fun. The prices are reasonable, the food is good, and it's like a quick trip to the islands. It's a favorite in my household. It's brought to you by Darden, the folks behind Olive Garden and Red Lobster, but don't let that scare you away.
Additionally, there are a number of chains and some decent buffets on International Drive. Keep in mind that that's the tourist area and is frequently very crowded. Severe traffic jams are not uncommon. Since it's Orlando's tourist trap, quality and service of restaurants in that area can be spotty. It's generally best to avoid that whole mess if you can.

There are plenty of excellent upscale restaurants as well a decent eateries for those on a budget. The California Grill at the Contemporary (»disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/di···ningPage ) is great, and if you get there at the right time, you can watch the fireworks at The Magic Kingdom while you eat. Moderately expensive.
If you want to spend a fortune, but have a meal you will never forget, Victoria and Albert's (»disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/di···ningPage ) at the Grand Floridian is world-class. But so are the prices. I've never eaten there, but know people who have. Expect to pay $100/person or more if you have fancy wine. One step down at the same hotel, and nearly as elegant, is Citrico's (»disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/di···ningPage ).
The parks also offer various restaurants, but you'll need to pay park admission to eat there. EPCOT has great restaurants featuring cuisine from around the world (»disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/di···tingPage ). The secret is that the restaurants are actually owned and staffed by people from the native countries, so the food is authentic and excellent. They're all a bit pricey (I had a $60 lunch with my wife in Morocco once) but totally worth it. If you're fans of a specific cuisine ... Mexican, Italian, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Moroccan, and even Canadian (steaks and other meats) they're all great. Yes, I've eaten at all of them and recommend them with equal enthusiasm. If you're going to have a special dinner at an EPCOT restaurant, make reservations. And if I was spending the day at EPCOT and could pick anything for lunch and dinner it would be sushi at the Japanese restaurant for lunch (»disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/di···ningPage ) and dinner in Germany (»disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/di···ningPage ). Great beers and plenty of sausages.
Fulton's Crab House in Downtown Disney (»disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/di···ningPage ) has fantastic seafood. Friendly service and good food. Great for lunch or dinner.
Take a look at the Disney Dining Finder for all the choices: »disneyworld.disney.go.com/wdw/di···nderPage

Ambiance, quality, quantity, and price- hard to beat them. The place looks like it was transplanted from Mulberry Street, and between the music, wait staff and decor, truly feels like it as well. Portions are more than generous, and prices are quite reasonable. The food and the attention to detail was truly excellent. As a plus for the addicts around here, there's free internet access.
The picture is of the display calzone- the real one is just as large and tempting.

Located just West of Flamingo Road or a mile east of highway 75 on Pines Boulevard is the Latin American Grill at 12638 Pines Boulevard. Fast service by great people generous servings and excellent prices are to be found here.
Yes for the gringos they have plenty of “American” breakfast choices but what ever you order don’t pass on the toasted Cuban bread.
