   Food is quite good (salads, hamachi, onion rings and bolognese pasta are standouts) but the service for a restaurant at this level leaves a lot to be desired. Waited a long time for someone to take our drink orders, had to ask for bread service while we watched the other tables get bread service and the one right behind us get it twice. The table next to us of two got one steak delivered and the woman had to wait several minutes for her steak. That should have been a warning to us. When my table’s food came, my steak was cooked appropriately but was cold. And my husband’s chicken was super hot. Became very apparent the kitchen has timing issues and cannot get the food timed and served appropriately. My steak had definitely been sitting there for a while waiting to be delivered. Such a shame for what was a great filet. They also forgot one of our sides and that came half way through our meal after we had to ask for it. My husband’s drink also sat empty repeatedly and kept having to ask someone to be able to order a new drink. Our waiter disappeared for most of the meal. We were celebrating mine and my Mom’s birthday. And despite the hostess wishing us a happy birthday, that was it. No comped dessert at this place. The dessert was also the worst part of the meal, so I wouldn’t recommend ordering dessert. It’s a shame because the food is very good and that’s normally the hard part. Hopefully it was an off night. But paying $550 for three people, it’s a hard pill to swallow for such off service.

   Knife and Spoon is excellent--the steaks are simply better than anything you are going to find in North/Central Florida--far better...it may be very expensive, but it's worth it...

   Pedro and Petar did an amazing job. They gave us a truly special experience and even remembered that we had dined here before. 10/10 excellent service. Would recommend to a friend.

   We had been to Knife and Spoon before but this last time was to celebrate our 51st wedding anniversary. They made us feel so special. From the greeting to the servers. They even gave us free champagne and dessert. The food was excellent and so were the waiters. This visit was truly extraordinary! And, of course, we will be back.

   This restaurant is located in the Ritz-Carlton with a Michelin star chef. Our expectations were for an elegant, refined and superb meal with world class service and attention to detail. Our bill for 2 was $1,065. The wine we selected was priced at 3X retail. It was served in standard wine glasses and we had to ask for it to be decanted. Our service was at the level I would expect at Shoney's. Inattentive, slow, long intervals between even checking on our table, I refilled our wine glasses. The biggest issue, besides the above, was the noise level came close to what would be expected at a wrestling match. No fabrics, wall hangings or carpet to subdue the noise. The ceiling had visible and large water stains that obviously had been there for years. We ordered the whole fish as well as a prime filet. The fish was well prepared and had a very tasty sauce. The filet was nothing special, but was at the correct temperature. We were, to say the least under whelmed and disappointed.

   What a fabulous evening it was at knife and spoon! We came to celebrate a very special birthday and the staff went out of their way way to make sure we had a perfect night from the hostess to all the servers and the team that helped to make our meal and drinks perfect we were so looked after. Pedro and Petar were outstanding servers and made sure everything was as we ordered and to our liking. They also did a good job at making our friend feel very special, which was so appreciated. The atmosphere in the restaurant is beautiful and we would definitely come again.

   The Knife and Spoon staff always go above and beyond with their service and attention to detail. The meals, especially their steaks, are worth every penny. Literally our #1 steak place we recommend to everyone. We absolutely love this place and can’t wait to be back!

    Truly outstanding in every way. As one of my friends said, "This has ruined eating out at a normal restaurant for me." It is well worth the price.
