Hello friends, it's Jim Oer. Welcome
0:32
back to Jim Oer's Wacky World. Now, we
0:36
had heard a lot of things about the
0:39
Yachtsman Steakhouse over at Walt Disney
0:42
World's Yacht Club Resort, but we had
0:44
never heard anyone say you have to eat
0:47
there or don't ever eat there. We had
0:51
heard it's it's super fancy, it's very
0:54
expensive, it's you know, all kinds of
0:57
things like that,
0:58
but nothing about the experience or the
1:00
food. So, we thought we would go check
1:03
it out.
1:04
So, if you've been curious about the
1:06
dining experience over at the yacht club
1:10
at this Yachtsman steakhouse, try saying
1:13
that three times fast. Yacht Club.
1:15
Yachtsman steakhouse. Yacht Club.
1:16
Anyway,
1:19
we are going to show you what it's like
1:21
to dine there, what the food looks like,
1:24
kind of the quality of the food and all
1:25
that. So, take a look at the Yatsswin
1:28
Steakhouse.
1:30
Walking down this little corridor
1:32
outside of Disney's Yacht Club takes you
1:35
right to the fine dining location of the
1:38
Yachtsman Steakhouse. Fine dining
1:41
meaning that it's pricey. Yeah. Um it's
1:45
a little pricey, but uh good food. And
1:49
when you enter, you pass the chefs,
1:51
which I thought was interesting that you
1:53
you start right by the kitchen and then
1:55
you enter the dining room, which you
1:57
notice here is very cozy and uh has a
2:02
nice atmosphere. It's kind of a mixture
2:04
of casual and upscale, but a really nice
2:08
atmosphere. A great array of windows
2:11
there to look out over the yacht club.
2:15
uh cool raised ceilings
2:18
and uh they've got a variety of things,
2:20
but we started with this little
2:23
pomegranate martini, which is not on the
2:25
menu. It's one of those places where you
2:27
can order stuff not on the menu and
2:30
they'll fix it. And this was really,
2:32
really good. Now, speaking of the menu,
2:34
just to give you a quick glimpse,
2:36
they've got a wide variety of things.
2:39
shrimp cocktail, lobster bisque, French
2:42
onion soup, all sorts of uh meats.
2:46
They've got uh filt, prime rib, New York
2:49
strip, uh ribe eyes, there's lobster, a
2:53
variety of steakhouse sauces that they
2:55
make right there at the restaurant.
2:56
Fresh. Uh you got short ribs and salmon,
3:01
braised chicken, scallops,
3:04
all kinds of fun stuff. Lots of sides.
3:07
uh honey bourbon, Brussels sprouts,
3:10
truffle fries,
3:12
and uh of course some interesting
3:15
desserts, which we'll show you one of
3:16
those in a minute. That's really cool.
3:19
Um and a variety of beers that are
3:22
brewed here in Florida, as well as
3:25
different uh scotches and um whisies,
3:31
all sorts of different drinks if you
3:32
want to just drink it up. As well as
3:35
coffee laors. Uh that Jamaican coffee I
3:38
almost tried. It sounds really really
3:40
good. But they start you off with a
3:44
bread basket and it's a variety of
3:46
breads. They've got a a pull- aart onion
3:48
roll. Um so some different types of of
3:52
uh bread varieties there. And then they
3:55
bring it out with some house-made fresh
3:58
butter as well as some roasted garlic.
4:02
And I thought the garlic was
4:04
interesting. I had not seen this before.
4:07
This garlic, this is a clove of garlic
4:09
that's roasted and it's so tender. It
4:12
spreads like butter and you can use it
4:13
on the bread. It's awesome. So, we also
4:16
tried this jumbo shrimp cocktail. It is
4:19
poached shrimp that has a house-made
4:22
cocktail sauce with lemon in it that
4:24
they make fresh right there in the
4:25
restaurant. This is really fresh and
4:27
really, really good. And of course, it's
4:30
a steakhouse, so we had to try the
4:31
steak. This is the 8 oz fillet. And it
4:35
comes with some uh some tomatoes, some
4:38
onions, uh couple fingerling potatoes.
4:43
Also, we got the loaded baked potato and
4:45
this loaded mixture with bacon and sour
4:48
cream and chives and cheese and stuff.
4:49
Is a carefully balanced house mixture
4:52
that they put together. So, the flavors
4:54
are are balanced perfectly. And when you
4:57
cut into this steak, it's very very
4:59
tender and juicy. And this is a medium.
5:03
So, at this restaurant, that's what a
5:05
medium is, and it's perfect. It is so
5:07
good. We tried some peppercorn sauce on
5:09
it. So, so, so good. Now, that dessert
5:12
that I mentioned, I'm not a chocolate
5:15
fan, but it sounded good. This is the
5:17
chocolate cake. And notice the little
5:19
lighthouse made out of chocolate that
5:21
sits on the chocolate rocks. This is a
5:24
uh it's chocolate biscuit. It's 65% dark
5:26
chocolate ganache, a chocolate
5:28
buttercream mixed with raspberry.
5:31
And this is a a chocolate recipe that is
5:36
made special just for this restaurant.
5:38
It's the It's the only flavor of
5:41
chocolate that you can get on at Disney
5:45
property. You can only get this
5:46
particular flavor at this restaurant.
5:49
And when you cut it open, it is a
5:50
multi-layer cake. And like I said, I
5:52
don't like chocolate, but I tried it and
5:54
it was so good. Really, really good. So,
5:58
uh, amazing. I would I would highly
6:00
recommend this.
6:02
There you go. That is the Yachtsman
6:04
Steakhouse over at the Yacht Club at
6:07
Walt Disney World.
6:10
Every bit of that food was good. Every
6:14
bit of it. Really well prepared.
6:17
Perfectly prepared. Not overcooked, not
6:19
undercooked. I mean, it was it was
6:21
really good. The the um the seasonings,
6:24
the flavors, everything
6:27
super good. And uh wait staff great.
6:31
Really nice atmosphere, especially when
6:33
you sit by the window and can kind of
6:35
look out over the pool and over the
6:36
boardwalk. Um
6:38
it is a bit pricey. A little pricey uh
6:42
but nothing that you know out of the you
6:46

6:47
