STK opened in 2016 promising to bring Vegas steakhouse swagger to Disney Springs.
I can now officially say I've eaten at every restaurant in Disney Springs -- and STK Steakhouse is the latest (and last) box checked off the list. And while the service was wonderful, the steak was... well, let's just say it didn't exactly sizzle its way into my memory.
History check: STK is part of the ONE Group's portfolio, blending steakhouse dining with nightclub vibes. The Disney Springs location opened in May 2016, one of the flagship additions during Disney Springs' big transformation from Downtown Disney into the sleek shopping-and-dining hub we know today. It was pitched as the "modern steakhouse for a younger crowd," where the DJ booth is as important as the grill.
The atmosphere is undeniably stylish: sleek leather seating, glowing neon, and a DJ spinning beats like you just wandered into a Vegas lounge instead of ordering a filet. It's fun, energetic, and definitely stands out among Disney Springs' lineup of themed eateries.
But let's talk food: I ordered the filet -- the crown jewel of any steakhouse menu -- and it was... forgettable. Cooked properly, sure, but lacking the bold flavor and "wow factor" that justifies the price tag. For a place that markets itself as the steakhouse, I expected to be telling stories about this filet for years. Instead, I left remembering the playlist more than the plate.
The service, however, was excellent. Polished, warm, and attentive -- my server was easily the highlight of the night. Drinks arrived promptly, recommendations were on point, and every interaction felt genuinely welcoming.
So here's my verdict: STK is a great place if you want the vibe -- loud music, fancy cocktails, dressed-up energy, and a "see and be seen" kind of crowd. But if you're looking for the kind of steak that defines a steakhouse, you may leave feeling like you paid more for the atmosphere than the meat.
Excellent service, flashy atmosphere, but a forgettable filet. Glad I went once -- gladder still that I can now officially say I've eaten at every restaurant in Disney Springs.
It nailed the nightclub vibe -- but if the filet is the headliner, this show closed early.
