My family of 4 ate at STK Steakhouse for the first time. Our $460 meal was pretty great, but the atmosphere wasn't our cup of tea.

• My family of four ate dinner at STK Steakhouse for the first time.
• Our meal cost $460 and included drinks, side dishes, four entrées, and a shared dessert.

There aren't a lot of chain restaurants at Disney World, and with lots of dining options across the parks, my family hasn't been to many of the property's franchises. But recently, my husband, two teens, and I visited STK Steakhouse at Disney Springs for the first time.

STK walks the line between an upscale steak house and a trendy lounge — it's known for having live DJs spinning club-style music while diners feast on entrées like seafood, lamb, and beef.

In addition to Orlando, the restaurant has several locations in the US and worldwide, including New York City, Toronto, Milan, and Dubai.

However, the chain's parent company, The One Group, reported that first-quarter revenue at STK was down nearly 7% from 2023, so I wondered if the chain's food and dining experience would really match the high-end image it depicts.
