 Hey friends, tonight we are going to be dining at one of Disney's signature restaurants, the Yachtman Steakhouse, right here at Disney's Yacht Club Resort, and I have never eaten here before, but it does have a reputation for having the best steak on Disney property, so I'm here to find out. Anywho's, let's go do this. The Yacht Club is hands down one of the beautifulest resorts I think I've ever seen. I love coming here and just hanging out, and it's connected to the beach club, so if you end up staying here, it's kind of like you get two resorts for the price of one. Yachtman Steakhouse actually reopened in August, and I have been really looking forward to actually coming out and trying it. I've never eaten here before, like I said, but I've been going around and trying all the different restaurants around Walt Disney World, and this one has been on my list for a while, and I was just waiting for it to reopen and here we are. We have a little time before our dining reservation, so I thought maybe we would just explore around the Yacht Club a little bit, show you the lobby, and just kind of relax. It was a little challenging to actually get a reservation here. The restaurant is only open from 5 p.m. till 9.30, and it's only five days a week at the moment. I think it's Wednesday through Sunday, and they're closed Mondays and Tuesdays, but I got lucky today. This is the lobby of the Yacht Club Resort, and I just love it in here. Everything is so fresh and clean, and I just like the decor. I love the gigantic carpet, the furniture. Everything about this resort is beautiful. They have two restaurants on the Yacht Club side. They have the Ealing Compass and then the Yachtman Steakhouse. I have eaten at the Ealing Compass before, but this is, like I said, my first time for the Yachtman Steakhouse, and Ealing Compass was actually very good breakfast when I ate here the last time, and maybe one day I'll come back and do dinner, but today it's all about the Yachtman. Another really cool thing to point out, this resort is a four-diamond resort awarded by AAA, that and Beach Club, so Beach and Yacht Club, four diamonds. Very fancy, and they got the awards actually on display right here in the lobby, and they actually look really fancy. Here is the Yachtman Steakhouse, and they have a little lounge right next door to it that's the Cruise Cup Lounge. Now they actually have a menu that you can order food in there, but it's not the full menu like you would get here at the Yachtman, so I decided to actually do a dining reservation, or else, I would just go to the first-come-first-served lounge. Even though it's not the full menu at the Cruise Cup, it's still an actual decently-sized menu. You can see you can get some of the chef's signature selections, including the 14-ounce roasted prime rib, the 12-ounce New York strip, and a couple of other land and sea entrees, but we're looking for the big, big good menu, and that's going to be right on the other side over here by Yachtman. We are all checked in for our reservation, and now we're just hanging out, and I noticed something really cool. They're basically cutting all of the steaks in the dry aged room, and you got to get a good first-hand look of it, and I think it's so amazing. Look at that. They just got it on an open glass so you can take a peek-see in there, and I am getting so hungry looking at all of these steaks. I mean, they have a lot of steak in there. That is a lot of beef. I'm not even sure what steak I'm going to get here today. I mean, usually the filet is probably the most popular, but I think I'm going to try something a little bit different. Here is a closer look at all of the steaks they offer. We've got a filet, a prime rib eye, a porterhouse, a prime New York strip, and all of the steaks are aged or dry aged seven days, except for the porterhouse, that is dry aged 28 days, and I think I am so excited. I mean, all of these look absolutely amazing, and they're cutting them right here, right now. So this is like the dry aged room for display. Now we have made it to our table, and I have to say, this restaurant is beautiful, and as we were walking in, I got a tour, and this showed me the dry aged room. All of the steaks are dry aged seven days, except for the porterhouse, and I think that is 21 days, they said, and the porterhouse is actually for two. I think it's 28 ounces, and all the other steaks go from eight to 16, so you have a big variety of options here, and plus a lot of land and sea combinations, so we're going to look over the menu a little bit. It's nice to see a full menu again, instead of a digital one, and they've got a good selection of different cocktails, Captain Mai Thai's, whiskey breezes, a good bottled beer selection, and a draft beer selection, but here's the actual menu menu itself, and you can see they have a lot to choose from. They've got jumbo shrimp cocktail appetizers, French onion soup, a chef's signature offering, a 28 ounce dry aged prime porterhouse for two. That sounds amazing, but it's for two people, and it's $139, and I'm all by myself, so I think I'm actually just gonna stick with the Butcher's Cut, a 16 ounce rib eye steak prime, and that comes with a blue cheese shallot that I might actually sell out for the brandy peppercorn one that comes on the New York strip. I think that sounds a little bit better for me, and then you pick a side, and they've got good side offerings, truffle mac and cheese, cream spinach, grilled asparagus, house-made truffle fries, all the works here. I am very excited for this meal. I went ahead and ordered an orange blossom pilsner. These are one of my favorite beers, actually, locally, and I'm shocked that they had it on draft here. A couple of the beers that they had, I think they have three of them. They're all local brews, and that's really fancy of them. As we wait, our bread service has arrived, and take a look at this. Wow, multiple different breads in here. This looks so, so good. And then the butter, it looks like a salted, maybe a salted butter there. Oh wow, this is gonna be good. I'm excited to try the bread service. This looks really fancy. We're gonna start off with the classic onion pull apart roll, and it is pink Himalayan salt butter, but take a look, oh wow. That breaks apart kind of like a croissant, or like a, it's very airy. That is so, so good. Oh my lord. I can't get over how easy that was to pull apart. So we're gonna grab a little butter here, put it right on there, and we're gonna give this a go. We're gonna give it a test. If the bread service is good, I can only imagine what the steak is gonna be like, and so far I'm impressed. The restaurant has a beautiful decor to it. Very busy, very hopping. Like I said, it was hard to get reservations here because of the limited time that it's open, but I'm excited that I'm here. The onion roll is one of the best bread service I think I've had at Disney World. So like I said, that's a very good start. And I ended up ordering. I went with the 16 ounce, and instead of getting the blue cheese shallot, I went with the cognac truffle butter, and that was actually the one they served on the porter house in the filet, and they let you switch it up. And to go along with the steak, I got truffle fries and grilled asparagus. You can only choose one, but I wanted to get a little vegetable in there, so I ended up getting the asparagus along with it. And plus I love asparagus, and I'm super excited for house cut truffle fries. And just like that, our steak has arrived. Take a look at that bad boy right there. So amazing. We've got the house made truffle fries. We've got the asparagus, and then we got the ribeye itself. We'll check this side. Look at this. Oh boy, like butter I say. I ordered it mid-rare, but I asked for a little bit of char on the outside. I like Pittsburgh usually, but I kind of decided to just kind of stay back a little bit. I did get a little bit of the char like I do like, and I don't think I'm gonna need any char because I'm gonna love it just the way it is. I'm gonna try the steak plain just the way it is, and then I'm gonna try it with the cognac truffle butter, but look at that. I am so excited to try this bad boy. Here we go. That is so, so amazing. Oh, much too good. Perfectly the way I like it. And now we're gonna grab a little bit of that truffle butter right there. Gonna put it on there, melt it down a little bit, add it perfectly. This is the one I think. The truffle cut fries are absolutely amazing. Look at these bad boys. Load it, and I love it. And they're hand cut right in here. The truffle fries are so, so good, and they definitely company the steak and the truffle butter all together. So it's a good combination. Now they do have regular fries that come with it. You need to choose mashed potatoes. If you want the truffle fries, it's $4 extra, but I suggest doing it because they are amazing. Now we're gonna dive into these amazing looking asparagus. Look at that, grilled perfectly. These are so, so I'm obsessed with asparagus. This is like a new thing for me. I think I tried it for the first time just about two years ago and now everywhere I go, I try to get the asparagus just to see if it tastes any different than all the other spots that I've had. And believe it or not, they all have a different taste to them. A nice little snap to it and it's so amazing. I love the asparagus, and like I said, I think it's the sauce that they cook it in. I don't know what, asparagus is now my favorite vegetable. I think I like a little bit of a mixture, so I don't know, a lot of people do like the fatty parts of a steak and a fatty part of a steak adds a lot more flavor to it. So I like to take a little bit of the fat and a little bit of the regular steak and just like nice big bite and it's perfect. Add a little bit of that truffle butter and excellent. But I do have to agree, this is probably one of the best steaks I've had at Disney. I think once we get done and I finish the home meal, we'll start ranking the ones that I like the most and give you a good breakdown and a full review of what I think, but I think it needs to sit first. Like I need to enjoy the meal and then talk about it. So here we go, to the steak. Now that we have successfully finished the steak, which was absolutely amazing, and I love the asparagus and the truffle fries, it's time to look at dessert. We've got a yachtsman chocolate cake for two, a strawberry shortcake, and a pineapple coconut tart. They all look pretty amazing. I am very interested in the chocolate cake and it is set for two and it's $19. So I think I might get it and I probably won't be able to finish it and take a box home and have a little dessert for maybe tomorrow. I think, I mean, unless it's that good and that small, but something tells me it's gonna be a big chocolate cake. And here is the chocolate cake. Wow, it kinda is like very fancy. It's not what I was expecting, to be honest. I don't think I've ever seen a chocolate cake that looks like this, but they still have to cut it. So we're gonna get a look on the inside and I'm kind of just curious. He said you can do it. Wow. Oh boy. And I'm very gentle. This is remarkable. Well the outside is chocolate. Yeah. It's such a layered cake. Wow. Nice. Oh my Lord, look at that. It's like opening a lot. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. So good. So if you wanna see, we have the chocolate, the candy, chocolate peanut, chocolate cake, blueberries, and then I forgot the rest of them. Peanut dipped, isomut, and berry curd, and berry compo. Berry compo and wheat grain. I know the wheat grain. Oh the whipped cream up top. I thought that was ice cream. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Doesn't it look like it? That looks good. I think that it didn't compare to the berries before. It's beautiful. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. I feel like it's a dinner with a show with the chocolate cake. That's a really nice presentation and it comes with a salted chocolate sauce. And the thing with layered cakes, it's so hard because you kind of wanna get everything in one bite, but you really can't do that because it's so big and it's hard to cover a big area. So I'm gonna try to get it all together and just have like the ultimate bite, if I can. Okay, I'm gonna try doing it like this, making sure we get a little bit of everything all in one bite. Then one big bite here. Moly. That's the stuff. Honestly, all the different flavors happening inside here is mind-blowing. So it's like a chocolate candy coated, like a candy shell, a chocolate shell around a cake with peanut butter, with berry compote, with chocolate crispies as well, and then topped with whipped cream. This is like a piece of art. And now I think I am all finished. That dessert was phenomenal. Honestly, I can say it's probably my favorite Disney World dessert. It was so, so good. All the different layers and different flavors, all combined, made it perfect. In the hand, the hard candy shell or the chocolate shell. It's so unique. And the steak, I probably would put it at my top five. It'd be in my top five. It didn't take my top spot from Shula's. Shula's I absolutely love. This one was very good though. Still up there, along with the cellier, Tobolinos, California Grill. And overall I love the Yatsman steakhouse. Very cool dining experience. The staff was wonderful and I loved the whole atmosphere. Now the table next to me had the prime rib and they were a very nice, lovely couple. And I think I wanna come back and try the prime rib just from looking at their meal. I was like, wow, that looks good. So I think I'll do that next time, try the prime rib. And if you guys know of any other recommendations of where I can get a good steak, let me know because the search continues. Gotta find the best steak in Disney. So I hope you enjoyed the video. I enjoyed making it. We'll see you next time. Bye.
