Dining

Daniel's, A Florida Steakhouse

Restaurant$$$$8.9 km

A busy bar, a dining room with dark wood tables and banquette seating, and moody lighting—Daniel's looks like a page ripped from the playbook of American steakhouses. This is a place to come with a group, as the large menu of steakhouse favorites is designed for sampling and sharing. Settle in over wagyu tartare or a Floridian take on oysters Rockefeller before tucking in to one of the perfectly cooked steaks. Of course there must be sides, especially grilled asparagus and corn pudding. Desserts may be sized for a crowd but it's difficult not to indulge when met with classics like key lime pie
