   Wonderful service from start to finish. It is expensive but worth the price. Our food was outstanding. We had the waygu carpaccio, tomahawk for 2, sauce flight, mashed potatoes and asparagus. The red wine reduction was our favorite of the flight, wish we could bottle it and take it home. They also started with an amuse of tuna tartare with mango which was delicious. We will definitely be back and bring others the next time we are in town.

   Limited menu on line says most items can be gluten free when we sat down minimum items gluten free. Filet was over cooked and dry No seasoning on anything. For the price and quality of food would not recommend

   A rare treat in fine dining, food, atmosphere and most importantly, the service was outstanding! It just so happened that our salad, main course and dessert were prepared table side which provided entertainment as well with Disney fireworks out the window in the distance, well done Bull and Bear!

   The ‘server team’ concept was a failure. We had a celebratory dinner planned and were very excited to try the Bull and Bear. The restaurant is beautiful and the seating was spacious and private. The menu offerings were classic steakhouse with the right touch of modern concepts. Our problem stemmed from having too many servers. My wife has allergies to peanuts and tree nuts and we told a couple of the servers as we were ordering drinks and food. We had a little confusion with allergy questions regarding drink ingredients but got it sorted out. I’m pretty sure the servers reversed our steak temperature orders because one was too done and the other too rare. They ultimately re-fired our steaks and supplied fresh sides with the new steaks to replace those that had gone cold. Great recovery and we loved the steaks and sides! The problem came with dessert. We ordered ‘The Lemon’ and asked about the nut allergy again. The first server said the cookie that came with it had cross-contamination concerns because it was made with almond flour. This was concerning as an ingredient is way different than cross contamination. We told him we didn’t want the cookie but he insisted on bringing it on a side plate. A different server brought ‘The Lemon’ and the cookie was on the main plate. He began his presentation of ‘The Lemon’ and we interrupted him as he began cutting the cookie up and mixing with the other part. He confirmed that the cookie did contain almond flour but said no worries because the allergy was to tree nuts. Super concerning! Once we explained that almonds are indeed a tree nut he quickly and shamefully removed the plate and brought one without the cookie. He passive-aggressively cut it up quickly and without a word he left. This was obviously a dangerous mistake and I think resulted from the confusion of too many servers. To me it seems like an unnecessary and pretentious choice. We felt that the servers overall were rushed, manic, and confused.

   It has been several years since we have been at the Bull and Bear but we have been there many times over the years. They still have outstanding service and food. I can highly recommend them.
