Historical Foundation for Excellence

With the goal of playing homage and maintaining the highest of standards of excellence first originated by hotelier Cesar Ritz, Knife & Spoon was created to become a favorite among both the local community and visitors to Orlando, reaffirming the luxury resort as the pinnacle of destination dining.

Meet Chef John Tesar

Chef Tesar is a four-time James Beard "Best of Southwest Chef" semifinalist, a two-time contestant on Bravo's "Top Chef", and the winner of the inaugural season of Food Network's "Extreme Chef". Chef Tesar specializes in modern American cuisine with authentic European techniques.

Our Name

The name Knife & Spoon is representative of the cutting-edge dry aged cuts of meat served in the restaurant and spoon is representative of a fishing lure for the seafood dishes.

Our Meat

Chef Tesar believes the secret to a steak's true flavor is in Dry Aging. Guests can choose 45, 60, 90, 120, 150 and 240-day dry-aged cuts nightly. The aging process provides an incredibly tender cut of steak, which is then cooked with a pan, the preferred method to locking in all the delicious flavors.

Our Seafood

Knife & Spoon exquisitely provides elevated seafood offerings set apart from the traditional Floridian concepts. Fresh catches of the day sourced right out of local waterways and paired with seasonal local produce providing an immensely flavorful experience.

Our Cocktails

The cocktail program at Knife & Spoon is based on traditional recipes, ingredients and history and utilizes various modern techniques. Many cocktails have a connection to the story of Knife & Spoon and the connection to Cesar Ritz, the original Ritz hotel, and John Tesar's own past.
