This was the low point of our dining during our stay at Walt Disney World. Shulas is perhaps the most over-rated restaurant Ive ever been to. It is owned by Don Shula (former NFL player and coach). He also has other restaurants, which I will NEVER step foot into.
There were four of us for dinner. Shulas Steak House is so dark and gloomy you can hardly see where you are going. It is very dim and there is only one candle on each table. Even after our eyes adjusted, we couldnt see anything. Even though there were plenty of tables open, they put us in a dark, dim corner.
The menu is written on a football, which we had to pass around. None of us could read it in the dark, we needed the waiters flashlight. The menu had no prices. I hate that, even though I already knew the prices (I read them online).
Our snotty waiter was named Carlos . He came over and abruptly showed us samples of the meat. With his accent, we couldnt understand one word he was saying. Then he had the nerve to get annoyed when we asked him to repeat something. He also said all the desserts take 30 minutes to make, SO, ORDER APPROPRIATELY!
Now, I dont know about you, but I dont know what I want for dessert or if I even want dessert before I even have my appetizer. We figured if we want dessert, we will ask for it at the end and wait the 30 minutes. The restaurant wasnt busy and we werent in a hurry.
When we ordered, we wanted to order 3 different vegetables (broccoli, asparagus & spinach). Carlos got angry and yelled TOO MANY SIDES and threw his hands in the air. So I said, yes, thats what we want and then he got very agitated and walked away.
My husband had the Barbequed Shrimp Stuffed with basil and he said it was good. The other couple had the Lobster Bisque and enjoyed it. I didnt have any appetizer. I was saving myself for the TOO MANY SIDES.
I had the Filet Mignon. My husband had the Prime Rib. The other couple had the Salmon and the Porterhouse. The food was just slightly above average.
Carlos NEVER cracked a smile, looked us in the eyes or said Youre welcome or Thank you. He was extremely rude.
Then Carlos came over and THREW the bill on the table. Yes, he actually THREW the bill at us without asking if we wanted coffee or anything, and, more importantly, without saying Thank You. What a freakin creep! This is the reason I never eat at Peter Lugers restaurant in Brooklyn. They have the best meat in the U.S., but the waiters are nasty. I dont believe you should pay good money to be treated shoddily, no matter how good the food is.
Carlos tip reflected his attitude.
So, my advice is, RUN, DO NOT WALK, AWAY FROM SHULAS STEAKHOUSE. The food is not worth the money. The atmosphere is uninteresting and murky and guests at a restaurant should be treated with respect. What a disappointment.
