Shula's Steak House Description:
Shula's has a built-in clientele of conventioneers at the Walt Disney World Dolphin hotel, definitely not as family friendly as most of the Disney World restaurants. But if you're looking for a pricey piece of beef, make a reservation. The themed restaurant pays homage to the 1972 Miami Dolphins' 17-0 perfect season, the NFL's only unbeaten team---even the menu is on a football, and the décor includes pictures and game footballs from the '72 season. The clubby atmosphere is just fine when you're in the mood for a thick, juicy steak with wine. The nicely grilled slabs of meat are enormous---a 32-ounce prime rib, 48-ounce porterhouse, 20-ounce Kansas City sirloin, even a four-pound lobster. If you can finish the 48-ounce porterhouse, your name goes on a plaque at the front of the restaurant. We're amazed that diners start with an appetizer, though the barbecued shrimp stuffed with basil or oysters Rockefeller are decadent beginnings. We recommend the simple beefsteak tomatoes and Gorgonzola cheese salad, with a gargantuan wedge of crisp iceberg that's plenty for two to nibble. The salad and a steak make the perfect combination, but you can add creamed spinach, broccoli with hollandaise or fresh asparagus spears. The thought of all those calories may force you to skip dessert---unless the attentive servers have already convinced you to order the chocolate soufflé for two. With all that self-indulgence, why not go for broke? We can almost guarantee leftovers.
